i have a feeling it won't be long unless someone makes a ridiculous contract. give me nate/mayfield and rudolph with a good qb coach.  spend the money on a good rt./ speed wr.  i have all the faith in the world that nate can produce. when's the last time we had a qb that threw 27-33 290 2td per game? he can do it.

 

i predict with a healthy k.b and jones getting in a groove combined with deonte on another 1 yr. deal,...along with oleary and clay, we will be fine. i also expect brandon reilly and dupri to make the team. if we draft a washington or anthony miller, we will see a passing offense this year that we haven;t seen in 20 years. it's gonna be great!

 

I asked this in one of the other 20 threads about FA QBs (LOL).

What teams are left needing a QB that are going to sign McCarron or Bridgewater?

Maybe Beane will have his choice on a "prove you're a starter" contract.

Didn't Bridgewater sign with the Jets?

Right? If they trade up for their guy it just seems bringing in a younger guy who still wants to start and be the guy somewhere wldnt make sense. Even if for some reason he took a 1 yr prove it deal, I'm not sure that's the best look.

They are professionals, but they all are competitors and I'm not sure putting 2 like minded (3 if Peterman feels slighted) guys who wanna prove themselves and start in the qb room would be helpful. Maybe it would turn into a volatile situation rather than one that would flourish w a clear rookie and mentor

If we grab McCarron it will obviously be on a big money, multi-year deal. Is it possible we then trade up to get weapons....say like Saquon Barkley or Calvin Ridley? And then use 22 on defense?

Why are there still people who want this soo badly? Even with the tea leaves pointing as they are it seems a small group (like the old man who calls each and every show on wgr to say the same thing) who just can't handle/accept what the plan appears to be.

I don't want to put all my eggs in a basket that historically shows about a 33 percent chance of actually hatching.  

 

AJ had a great career at Alabama and has played well in limited NFL action.  and, he studied under the great Andy Dalton.  I would prefer we hedge our bets.

With Brees, Garoppolo, Cousins, Bradford, Keenum, Bridgewater gone, it all comes down to these options: (there are other QBs but I dont think they are going to happen)

 

Tier 1: (not a FA)

Nick Foles

 

Tier 2: (All FA)

Aj McCarron

Josh McCown

 

Tier 3: (All FA)

Derek Anderson 

Tom Savage

Chase Daniel

Matt Moore

Colin Kaepernick

Geno Smith

Chad Henne

 

Wonder who the Bills sign / get.

 

Foles will cost us picks, McCarron can be had straight up. The safe bet is on Foles tho. Also, I would put Kap as tier 2- just my opinion tho. Great Post!

The question was based on the hypothetical of whether or not we signed McCarron. If we do he is going to be our starter for the next few years. He is not going to come cheap and is not going to sign somewhere unless he has a guarantee of starting. If he is our starter, then we could use our picks to trade up for weapons or sit at 12 and take the best player available. 

 

Somebody obviously can't handle a hypothetical question very well.

I get that, and respect that.

I disagree, which I'm sure you know BUT I guess I feel that with things looking the way they do that this is just going to make you upset if they continue the direction it appears they are.

At what point does that crowd jump ship to the other raft? I guess if it were me it would just drive me nuts to continue to go against it if that makes sense

Ok then, let's see how you handle hypothetical.

Hypothetically, have you paid attention towards the way the off season has progressed? 

Not hypothetically- apparently not. 

Reddogblitz at least makes sense and backs up his arguments with valid points. I respect that and enjoy listening to why he feels that way.

Meanwhile, you post nonsense backed with insults rather than backing up your nonsense...

Name me 1 team (other than the Bill's) who need to sign McCarron as a starter for the 2018 season.

Why does McCarron have to be our starter for the next few years if signed?    Jets signed McCown for one year for $10 million.   Cardinals signed Bradford for one year for $20 million.

 

Who is to say the Bills can't sign McCarron on a one year deal for money somewhere in between those two?

 

McCarron hasn't proven anything in this league yet -except that he is a capable backup.

Bridgewater too!

If Bridgewater or McCarron want to be a starter this year, Bill's are the only game in town!
