SaviorPeterman Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I still think NP is the QB of the future and option four is my choice especially since Beane is in love with him: http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/news/buffalo-bills-tyrod-taylor-nathan-peterman-quarterback-future-2018-nfl-draft-alex-smith/95ofoqj66m4m1gywtd44mklke Quote 4. Stick with Nathan Peterman "Overwhelmed" would be a kind word to describe Peterman's two starts as a fifth-round rookie. But keep in mind he went into the season as more of a developmental project and not with the mindset that he was going to be the No. 1 over Taylor. A full offseason with that mentality, in addition to more help around him, is bound to make Peterman improve. Peterman impressed coaches enough in the preseason to displace T.J. Yates as the Bills' top backup. There are lots of things they like about his raw ability, and it shouldn't be shocking if the Bills simply decide to try to harness it as their starting solution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Ha ha, there is no chance that the Bills are handing the keys to Peterman. In his 4 snaps Sunday he bobbled a snap, fumbled, took an intentional grounding penalty and got picked. There is a decent chance that he isn’t on the roster next year. If they draft a QB eary and sign a vet where does that leave Peterman? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Tyrod sits on the bench for 4 years not good enough to start for the team that drafted him but Peterman gets grilled for starting his rookie season. Come on man, Peterman is on this roster next season on that rookie contract IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 He at no point showed that he is ready or capable of handling meaningful snaps in the NFL. I get it he is your guy, but he is making the same mistakes over, and over again. Franchise Qbs dont wet themselves repeatedly their rookie season than meracilusly become great. You got it or you dont. He doesnt got it. A completely average qb out played him by a wide margin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatonka68 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I can see the Bills, though I don't approve, keeping Petermen and signing Sam Bradford as a Bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I'm hoping for AJ Mcarron, Mayfield and Peterman to be fighting it out for the starting spot in pre season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on man, Peterman is on this roster next season on that rookie contract IMO. Asked a different way, “what are you optimistic about?” He was barely a 60% guy in college and completed 49% as a rookie and was a turnover machine. He gave no reason to be optimistic. The Bills are absolutely either signing Cousins or drafting a guy high. Most suspect that they will have a stop gap vet as well. If they go the draft route and take Allen (as an example) while signing Bradford (as an example) where does that leave Peterman? As a former 5th round 3rd string QB that has shown little to nothing when given the opportunity? Why waste a roster spot? If they sign Cousins I could see them keeping him as the developmental guy. That would assume that they don’t draft one. Somehow Bills fans became delusionsal with Peterman. He is Levi Brown not Carson Wentz. He was a 5th round project that isn’t very accurate and is awful under pressure. When he played, that’s who he was. That’s who he has been for years. There is 0.0% chance that the Bills hand him the keys. Edited January 10, 2018 by Kirby Jackson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we really need a more reliable vet over McCarron... Way too much of a crap shoot with AJ.. need a vet with a better resume and experience IMO 10 minutes ago, Tatonka68 said: I can see the Bills, though I don't approve, keeping Petermen and signing Sam Bradford as a Bridge. As long as we draft a qb to compete. Although Bradford wouldn't be a 1st choice. Peterman will be here for at least TC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) Peterman almost cost us a place in the playoffs, and then actually did cost us while said playoff game was on the line... and you want to hand the franchise to him? Yeesh. He *could* still develop, but he is pretty far away from being a viable starter at the moment.

jrober38 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I think the Bills will have a really tough time selling tickets if Peterman is the starter. If he doesn't work out, that's the type of decision that gets a front office fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Landing Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) Draft a QB early and keep Tyrod. If (and only if) the rookie is ready by week one, great. If not, play Tyrod until he is. (EDIT: And save further embarrassment: cut Peterman.) Edited January 10, 2018 by Rocky Landing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st pete gogolak Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Peterman's ceiling is Frank Reich, which isn't a bad ceiling but it's not who you want as your starting QB in a QB dominated league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
