Peterman starting over Bradford?   Laughable!

Me still think McD is still high on Peterman I know many here have written him off after that amazing performance in San Diego , but we don’t get to see him in practice and film room and all that ,  so ( IMO ) he will still get another chance in TC and few preseason games ,

High might be the right word and I wish he did show up in San Diego instead of LA.

Is Matt Moore going to be the offseason acquisition question mark for the rest of my life?

 

For real! 

 

Matt Moore is clearly the greatest back-up QB ever - every year someone calls for him to be "the guy" for some team.  Hell Phins fans wanted him to start over Tanny - until he started over Tanny!

Of course they have some interest. They have interest in every option.

 

“This is what we are offering you, player A  very nice contract, in our opinion. You are our top choice but we can’t screw around. Sam Bradford is scheduled for a visit tomorrow.”

The difference between the St. Louis situation and the possible Buffalo situation is that I don't believe the hometown franchise perceives him as the long-term qb as St. Louis did when he was the first player taken in the draft. From Bradford''s standpoint I'm sure he recognizes that what he needs to do in the short-term is regain some credibility as a player. Due to injuries he hasn't played in a long time. So it is doubtful that he is going to garner a rich multi-year contract in the market. If he could be signed on a very reasonable contract this would be a good match. What's the risk? If the Bills get one of the premium qb prospects and Bradford gets hurt then the rookie is going to get early playing time. If the often injured veteran qb plays well then the rookie qb has more time to prepare. The bottom line is that it would be a good situation for Bradford and for the Bills. 

 

The risk is that he will still want (and be able to be get from someone) several million dollars, probably guaranteed, yet won't be able to play (injury in TC or preseason).

Haven't we played this tape before where we dumped a rookie who needed development time into the fray before he was ready, and watched him decompose  before our eyes?  Can we please try, for once, to develop a QB correctly meaning, we play him when he earns it and not because we must?

 

Bottom line: if you need a bridge QB because you're not planning to draft the 1 QB in the draft who is day-1 ready, the #1 attribute you need from that bridge guy is availability.  In other words, we must agree to disagree, as I think it would be great for Bradford (he gets paid) and a sucker bet for the Bills.

Bradford is a fine QB if the Bills are looking to bridge.

 

If you truly think they are going to trade up to the top 5 to take a quarterback, you'd better believe that quarterback is going to start EXTREMELY sooner rather than later.  There just isn't the concept of "developing" a quarterback anymore.  You either have it or you don't, and playing the game is the best way to get better at it.

Its a fine line....because you want to biuld on what we did last year....which means making the playoffs.

If Keenum were smart, he'd sign with a team immediately.  Not enough chairs for all these free agent QB's.  

 

Keenum should be the second one off the board.

 

His best fit is Arizona, IMO.........that is one place that might not trade up for a QB if they sign him.

 

I think Denver would still be looking QB in round 1 if they got Keenum.

I think Keenum would do well in Denver too--they have the right mix of WRs that can take advantage of his ability to get the ball out quickly and willingness to throw up 50/50 shots

IMO, Teams are going to shy away from Keenum. They see what he has been in the past and wont give him an Oeisweiler type deal that they will be trying to get out of in 2 Years.

Yeah I agree.........it's a good spot for him in 2017..........but I have a hard time buying Elway putting all his eggs in the Keenum basket.........I feel like Elway would view him as a bridge.

 

I think he'd have a better shot at being a long term starter in Arizona.    Plus the home-dome atmosphere is easy on a noodle arm.

If Elway wants to draft a guy like Allen, then Keenum would make perfect sense.

 

I have a gut feeling, however, that Cleveland is going to take Allen

Keenum is definitely a dome guy for sure. I still feel Foles winds up in Arizona, but Keenum makes sense.

Foles going back to Arizona makes a ton of sense.........they would then have as good a chance of extending him as anyone.

 

Either way I think the QB they get in FA will be considered their solution and they will only draft one if they fall to them and think it's too good of a value.

 

That makes them the next best place for a FA QB aside from Minnesota.   Everyone else is going to be looking past them to their successor, IMO.
