Don't trade up but take the QB that falls to you, plus a next-rung QB in a lower round like White or Lauletta? As a hedge against busting out our as an asset to deal later? IF we did that we would need to cut Peterman or have Peterman as the vet QB. I think all options are on the table and up for discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 2 minutes ago, SoTier said: This post is nonsense. How exactly does a team develop two great QBs at the same time? Are the QBs alternating snaps or games or what? And how would a team even know if both were busts after only one year if they were constantly being shuffled in and out of the line-up? I suppose you were one of those who declared Jared Goff a bust last season or have annointed DeShon Watson the greatest QB of all time based on his limited rookie season. No. Watson could be the next RG3 or Vince Young. I know quarterbacks have struggled under Jeff Fisher so I was never willing to write Goff off after one year. As for drafting two QB's in the first round it never is going to happen, but it would be interesting as a hypothetical. You can develop two quarterbacks at the same time. Offensive coaches can multitask. Then there's a competition for starter like the Bills had in 2015 (that was a 3 way competition) so I'm guessing you'd split the reps with the 1st team. You'd have them both start preseason games and let the best man win the starting role. The backup learns from the bench. It's such a good QB class and franchise QB's are so hard to find that why not double your chances of finding your guy? I regret the one year comment as you're correct as it's difficult to determine if a QB is a bust after one year. Even the Chargers kept Ryan Leaf for three years.

Fadingpain Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Why not? I'm on board with drafting a QB or 2 every year until you find one that is good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I am kind of with Kirby. I'd rather use picks to get up and take the one we want in the top 5 and sign a vet. However, if you get to your pick in round 4 and a QB you have a 2nd round grade on is still sitting there sticking out as the BPA then yes, do it. But it needs to be that level of obvious for me.

VirginiaMike Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I think there are too many other needs that must be filled -- O-Line, LB, WR, D-Tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I'd draft White and the kid from Richmond. Sign McCown as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clayboy54 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 If they don't trade the King's Ransom to move up and get their guy, then yes. I'd draft one in the 21st or 22nd slot and another one in the 3rd or 4th. If, on the other hand, they feel strongly enough to move up, I'd live with Peterman as the backup.

Just Joshin' Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 No. Assuming you keep Peterman and draft one in the first, the 3rd QB needs to be a vet to provide short term starter capability and longer term mentoring. Not a good plan to go with 2 rookies and 1 second year QB, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't use more than a 3rd or 4th on WR, LB or RB. Spend you draft picks on OL and DL. They need O and D line rebuilt. You have nothing at DT, and at least 2 maybe 3 holes on OL. Until the Bills find a QB, who really cares about WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end it kind of worked for Washington and they still found a way to balls it up. Just what they do. What about my very specific circumstances Kirbs.... you have traded up and taken say Rosen at #3 given up both 1s and a 2 to do it and then you are there mid 4th and the guy sticking out as the BPA by your board is a QB with a 2nd round grade... a full round higher than your next BPA - say the White kid. Very hypothetical I know but are you still saying "no"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
