dezertbill Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Peterman would have to start at least half a season and play extremely well in order for the Bills not to draft a QB in 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM2009 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Not only ignore their actually body of work, instead choose to look at preseason play instead. Last I checked pre season games don't count in the standings. How many guys played well in pre season only to be cut-pre season means nothing.

reddogblitz Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 If I'm a D Coordinator facing Nasty Nate, I blitz the peejeebers out of him (as I would all rookies). See if he goes 1 for 8 under pressure, ducks and Chuck's it into a crowd, or flat out drops the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iraq Vet Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) 0-16!!!! Let's just do it.... Let's have fun and watch a lot of young guys and cast off from other teams play... we aren't going to the playoffs. It is a waste of a seasons if we go 7-9. A huge waste. Go 10-6 or 1-15, anything else is pointless Edited August 31, 2017 by Iraq Vet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what you look for in leaders." I don't think they anticipated NP playing this well and TT playing this poorly up to this point. They have a tough decision should NP play well if TT can't go.

We drafted I think 4 players that had visited Carolina before the draft but not us. Including the two we traded up for. Obviously McDermott and/or Beane were running the show, Whaley was just given a respectful exit. It will never be proven but all the evidence points that way.

I always wondered what was going through Whaley's mind. You know you're gone after the draft and another guy from another team is running it with the HC. I think he just set up the draft board, like wrote it on the white board and that was about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your conspiracy theory about Beane working with McDermott to select players for the Bills is entertaining. I'm sure McD was ducking out of sight to receive secret text messages about who select and what trades to make during the draft. Oh yeah, they did this in cahoots with Jerry Richardson.

They have a tough decision should NP play well if TT can't go. If TT can't go, starting NP is an easy decision. And more importantly, one that can't be criticized by anyone.

McDermott was already employed by the Bills and knew Carolina's draft board. It is not nearly as far fetched as you seem to think. The far fetched belief is that a lame duck GM ran a draft where he took players that he hadn't visited with, players who the incoming HC/GM had visits with. Use some common sense, it's pretty obvious what happened here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wouldn't worry about that too much. His handling (or not) pressure is a HUGE red flag for me in his game along with his inaccuracy/consistency. I don't think he sucks or anything like that, he's just nowhere near ready to start an NFL game against a real defense that game plans against him, that's all. Best thing for him is he doesn't see the field this year. Don't rush it IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So McDermott set up the Bills' 2017 draft board with Whaley and the scouts still on board just sitting around. None of the work they did all throughout the CFB season was considered and they just used McDermott's recollection of the Panthers' board to go on. Is that your contention?

The players we drafted clearly were not sought out by the Bills. They were sought out by Carolina. I don't know how to make it simpler. The scouts were never getting fired before the draft, that would be a huge mistake. What's weird is your belief that Pegula allowed a GM who he planned on firing to run a draft, using the draft board of scouts that he also planned on firing. How does that fit into your theory?

I'd agree if I were talking to a Bills coach. Nothing better than a backup IMO is pure speculation at this point. Speculation isn't an honest evaluation. College and the NFL are very different.
