MTBill Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 If this staff thinks he is an upgrade - and is medically cleared.... then go for it. I think he'll have a reasonable contract - probably incentive laden - and that plays right in to the cap equation. Bring him in to compete with whatever group we have in training camp with the new OC. The only real question mark with him I have is the medical clearance - and making sure he can do what you want to do as an offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Boo Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Those 14 TDs per year really jump off the screen, don't they? I'm fairly certain that McBeane isn't interested in downgrading the QB position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In an average season he has slightly more passing yards, less TD passes, less rushing yards, and turns the ball over more than TT. He does have a better record than TT at 17-11, but that can be contributed to a very solid defence with good coaching. I am not trolling you for the record, just brought those stats to your attention in case you were unaware. I understand his upside his higher. But as of right now he is not an upgrade over TT, especially since he hasn't played in almost 3 years. more passing yards, less TD passes, less rushing yards and turns the ball over more than TT- and you say they are similar? And to add, Bridgewater is a pocket passer, much younger too. Something that we're missing here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to give him a boatload of credit for his hard work focus and faith to carry him to this point. But seems Teams might have a hard time trusting his knee health. even before considering his potential as a still developing QB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see two former Louisville QBs on the Bills roster Fitz isn’t scared to Throw the ball lol. Does that make him an upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually pretty curious 10 hours ago, TheTruthHurts said: Probably in the $12 million per year range. I just noticed Spotrac finally has a market value for TB. 10.9 million average for 3 years. I can't see too much guaranteed with his injury, maybe 12 or so. Not bad, a team could get out of in a year if they wanted to. http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/minnesota-vikings/teddy-bridgewater-14441/market-value/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I would be curious as to which area they see him as an uograde over Taylor. It think If you fot Talor level consistency out of him you would be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have different styles but I mean in terms of overall production so far in their career, there isn’t much of a difference. TT does a few things better, but Bridgewater does a few things better as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I think this is the exact kind of guy that this front office is looking for in FA (for all positions) coming off a down or injured year, question marks will make the cheaper/affordable and has a high ceiling/upside that they hope the player will be able to get back to. Ideally, you get someone like him that is still young and can develop while taking over the starter spot allowing them to keep most of their picks to use elsewhere and hopefully still get one of the better qbs outside of the top ten that won't be rushed into the starter role immediately. The key is how the doctors check out his knee and if they feel it's all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last full year starting Teddy passed for 3200 yards 14 tds and 7 ints. Seems like Taylor production minus the running ability and more ints. Again where is the improvement?
