Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Hopefully this isn't even a requirement for this regime. Accuracy and anticipation wins over arm strength in any weather conditions. That said, all the QBs we may draft in the top 10 have enough arm. I don't care who has the strongest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills1212 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) The candy man can! There's a nice ear worm for ya. Hopefully they all can. Sometimes you hear Rosens ability to do so come into question but I'd hope as future NFL qbs they all can. It seems some might just do it better than others. Palmer didn't seem to have issues. Aikman had it covered in philly. I know these are past players, but maybe this has gone the way of needing to be 6'3+ or have monster hands. It matters, but maybe not as much as it once did. I'd imagine it's ideal to not have to but you'd think and hope as an NFL qb they can. Further, if you become worried about this it becomes a devils advocate. Want a guy who you know their arm can cut it? Great, go w Allen. Oh, not a polished enough passer? Ummm well... and it goes on.

No but there are plenty of good QBs who come from Cali... its probably the best QB state over the last 40 years along with Texas and Pennsylvania I don't think Darnold and Rosen would have problems slinging it in Buffalo.

It just doesnt happen. Impossible. We have fans living in fear of Rob Johnson. That's how beat down this fanbase is. I cant really blame them, but we should be better than this. Yeah Johnson. He had some play except every time he fell down he came up hurt. One time he fell on the effing ball and separated rib cartilage. Man he was like a 25 yr old inside an 80 yr old body.

And he has a Fitzy Jr. arm. It's no coincidence that he has 10" hands (9 7/8"), a far more important metric for a cold weather QB. Unless you can find someone to deflate balls for you, then hand size is not nearly as important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
