So going into camp, is it a qb competition for starter?

Obviously with Tyrod gone, we only have Peterman left. My guess is the bills will draft a qb high AND sign a vet qb

 

Which makes me wonder, do they automatically start a high drafted rookie, start the vet as a bridge or have an all out qb competition? Personally, I hope they have a competition. While I want whoever they draft to be our long term future, I also want to play the best qb this year. What say you

Its def gonna be a competition.  There will be no 'day one starters off the bus' type of bs.

 

Let the best QB win! If we draft Rosen or Mayfield they will def win the starting job in camp.

I agree, but I also know how coaches are with high draft picks and could see whoever we draft being the starter, even if not fully ready. We know McDermott is thorough though

Depends on who the bridge guy is. If it's Foles, they may just go forward with him as the intended day 1 starter, only allowing the rook to steal it if he has a Russell Wilson-like rookie preseason. Don't know enough about Daboll to really make any call yet.

No young qb is ever fully ready — if you believe a guy is worth going to the top ten he is immediately starter unless you made a mistake. If we stay put then it’s a competition with a slightly stacked deck (close and the rookie plays)

I think it’ll be like Chicago last year. Let the vet play a few games, once he throws a couple picks throw the rookie in. Sink or swim B word

 

”B word”? Really. That’s totally lame 

Meh, I'm not find of that approach. I feel like teams who do that are often really bad, like Chicago.

I think you leave it open to a competition. Unless you pour a lot of funds into that vet QB. Don't spend big on a vet QB if you think he can't win a competition over Peterman and a Rookie.

Without knowing the players involved there's no way to answer this question.  This thread is at least four days too early. 

 

I agree that it's way too early to tell. Sign Cousins for $27 million or commit to someone like Keenum for more than one year and there won't be a competition. 

 

Anything less and I'd expect competition that's tilted against the rookie.
