I would need:

1.). 15-16 Seaons as the starter

 

2.). Playing in over 248-250 games

 

3.). 10 seasons of playoff appearances

 

4.). 7-8 Division Titles

 

5.). 2-3 Super Bowl Appearances

 

6.). Super Bowl Victory is a must.

I think that it would be interesting to see how many QBs meet that criteria and how many were drafted in a trade up. Maybe Eli? Maybe Elway? 

I posted that I thought Josh Rosen's NFL comparison would be Eli Manning and I had numerous people respond that he's not worth trading up for if he's only as good as Eli Manning. There are a lot of delusional fans on this forum.

You posted that his ceiling was Eli Manning. It wasn't surprising to see that people wanted something more consistent and less streaky as a ceiling.

Yet he's 1 of only a couple that checks off most of the OP's wishes, wishes that are absolutely absurd to begin with.

Except he isn't and doesn't. He meets exactly 2 of the OP's wishes. Super Bowl Appearances and win. He's started 13 seasons, played in 216 games, made the playoffs 6 times, and won the division 3 times.

Apparently that's not good enough to be a Bills QB! :lol:

Yes. In 14 seasons he's made the playoffs 6 times, and every time he's won at least a playoff game they've won the Super Bowl. They've also had 6 seasons at or under .500 in that same span. I'm not going to apologize for hoping that a QB we trade up for is more consistently successful than Eli, who is incredibly streaky. I'll take good Eli any day of the week, but there are quite a few QBs I'd put well ahead of him because of their consistency.

You were the one who said he checks off most of the boxes. At this point he most certainly does not.
