ColoradoBills Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 2 hours ago, BuffaloBillsGospel said: Good luck shutting people up on a message board... I'm not bad mouthing him but Foles has never been "the guy" and when he was other than that 13 game start in Philly he's been less than advertised. I mean at this stage of his career it will be hard pressed to believe that he just turned into a better QB than he was before am I wrong ? There is only 1 QB I can remember who seemed to be a journeyman his whole career then turned into a franchise QB and that's Rich Gannon so it can happen. FTR, Foles came in on Game 5 for the injured Vick (who was 1-3) and led the Eagles to a comeback win (2 TD's in 4th qtr). He then went 8-2 for the remainder of the season. The next season (2014) Foles started the season and went 6-2 before breaking his collarbone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was referring too, not Wentz But that was in 2015. Like i mentioned at some point, i hope, Eagles Coaching may have helped the Foles realize a bit more of his potential. He certainly showed up when it mattered. is that something he will be able to carry forward? Heck i do not know. But Bills should be considering that bet 8 hours ago, greeneblitz said: Foles would be a terrible choice, he's been mediocre his entire career, was mediocre in the playoffs and had a great game in the Superbowl, this is a classic case of way over inflated value, we need to stop obsessing over other teams garbage QBs and just draft our own, I swear, we as fans, deserve everything we've got in the last 20 years. whos obsessing : ) Its a hypothetical discussion. 8 hours ago, NickelCity said: That's a good point.

But, The Foles plan is not a bad one if the first one can't be accomplished within reason. This is exactly were I'm at as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offyourocker Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Give them a second this year, one next year and Tyrod. Tyrod can manage games for them if Wentz can start beginning of season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Bills should be considering that bet I know that it was 2015 but that was 3 years ago and that was the last time he went into an NFL season being a starter. (And then lost his job) 3 years as a backup QB or two great games? I would not bet on 2 great games. Any QB can get hot for two games. He just happened to get hot at the perfect time Edited March 9, 2018 by billsfan11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the poll many want to move on from Taylor. Will keeping it safe fill fill the seats in the stadium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wentz is ahead of schedule and may be ready for TC or week one. Supposedly. But, that would suggest a trade is more possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I wouldn't be surprise if we're going for Foles now that Tyrod has been traded. I don't see us going into next season with a rookie and Nate Peterman. I also don't see us giving up a large amount of draft capital to move into the top 5 for a QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Ballin Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I be happy as hell if we got Foles. I want to win now. No more fluke wins. He's gonna be great for us. I would also draft Lamar Jackson if Foles do not work out to study under Foles and quietly work on his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1billsfan Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I said this in the trade topic, but I'll say it here. Foles went to Arizona, his wife is from Arizona, his family lives in Texas...all signs point to him wanted and being granted a trade to Arizona. IMO the Bills are going to trade up and draft a QB, and probably sign a FA like Mccarron as a bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Pass on Foles, trade up for a young QB. I think Foles works in Philly's QB friendly system. Since McNabb they have always made QB's look better than what they are, Kolb, Foles, and even backups like Mark Sanchez looked better on the Eagles than they did on any other team. Foles had one hell of a run but I don't think he would be the right guy for this team. You have the ammo trade up for a rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
