PromoTheRobot Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I don't want the Bills scraping the QB barrel and spending $10-15MM on whatever's left. Why not just roll with Nate Peterman and whoever we draft, with Joe Webb III your #3? The SD game aside, I thought NP was okay. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Remember what happened when we went into a season with Manual and Tuel? Pretty much the same. Â You really should have an NFL vet in the QB room. Help the young guys out breaking down film, transition to the NFL. Â We have a QB coach that has primarily coached WRs. We need someone that is experienced in that QB room. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'd be OK with this, as long as the rookie is Mayfield or Rosen. The other rookies will need as much as a full season on the bench before playing, in that case, I'd like a Foles or McCarron for 2018. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davealan74 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Honestly I dont want to see peterman on the field again unless he has grown a little ...ok alot. We need a vet to help the rookie acclimate to the team the playbook and just NFL in general.  3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGun12TD Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 The only rookie I would feel good about in this scenario is Rosen. Otherwise, NO. A vet to help the transition would be great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 As long as it's Mayfield/Darnold/Rosen as that top drafted QB, I'd be fine with it. Maybe McDermott can bring Joe Webb back as the #3 QB. Peterman would clearly be the backup at that point. Build up the team with talent, otherwise.

K-9 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Depends on whether or not they get the most ready prospect in the draft, which would be Rosen. Mayfield's ability to assimilate to an under center QB shouldn't be that difficult, either, but he'd need more time. I think Darnold and Allen would fare the worst if forced to start right away or soon into the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xRUSHx Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) I would look for a cheap replacement to Webb but I am fine with Rosen/Darnold/Mayfield or even Rudolph and then Peterman as one and two. The 3rd needs to be someone other then Webb IMO, Webb is not a pocket QB he should have went in the package with Tyrod.

ndirish1978 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'd dislike it. The whole point of vets is to help the young guys learn how to be NFL QBs and the amount of work required, weldon't currently have someone who can help a rookie develop.

Â Don't believe that Jackson isn't pro ready in the right situation though. While he does still have room to grow he did run a pro style offense in college. He's still not my pick, but I think he will surprise if he goes to the right situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsredneck1 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) we are going to go to no.4 from cle. i think a tenative deal for this was struck when the browns took tyrod. they are going to pick darnold at 1. the giants will take barkley at 2. indy will not trade out of 3 and take chubb. even if they do get a massive offer, that team will most likely take rosen.  either way, the bills are taking mayfield at no. 4. we will give the browns our next years 1st. the first 4 picks are already in place. everyone thinks cousins is a done deal in minny. i call b.s. i think he's gonna make more than one visit.  either way, if he does go to minny, and denver signs keenum, bradford is going to az....just like i predicted in previous threads.  bridgewater will go to the jets. that leaves foles and a.j. if philly is unwilling to move foles at this time and some team gives a.j. and offer that's ridiculous, i can see us starting nate....and i'm fine with that.  at 22 which we will be keeping, we can hopefully draft vita vea. they may choose to go lb and harrison phillips in the second, but they will draft rudolph ( which i hope they do) or mike white in the 3rd. i'm prefectly fine with nate/baker/ rudolph or white.  we can get a good qb coach like a ken dorsey and roll with the young stable. screw overpaying one of the free agent backups/bridges. with a better front 4, a healthy receiving corp and a couple of key free agents, nate can easily get us 10-6 until baker beats him out. i have been right on the money on a lot of things so far and this is where i'm hanging my hat for the near future.

Alphadawg7 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Let NP start, but would be good to have a vet in the QB room. I could care less who is on the field, what they do or dont do doesn't matter...all that matters is how the rookie does once he gets the job. Â Â So I would rather go cheap on a vet then let the vet and NP battle for the gig until the rookie wins it...which he could actually win outright in preseason, then NP/Vet are just backups.
