Kansas City came from pick #27 to the Bills #10 spot to draft a QB and they already had Alex Smith. Teams that could trade ahead off the Bills for the last of the top 5 QBs in this class are... 15. Cardinals 17. Chargers 27. Saints 28. Steelers 29. Jacksonville The Bills may have to trade up from #12 to even get the chance to draft Lamar Jackson. 6 in the top 12 would be unprecedented Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't see what the other option would be. Is it Peterman? They are going to watch Mahomes and Watson (two guys they could have drafted) light up the league in 2018, miss out entirely on the top 5 QBs in the 2018 draft, and then start Peterman? That seems like a very far stretch and I don't see that happening in any way, shape or form. Foles is probably the Bills franchise's panic button, and they are probably very relieved to have an option like him after what he did to the Pats in the Super Bowl. 8 minutes ago, oldmanfan said: 6 in the top 12 would be unprecedented I was referring to a team jumping ahead of the Bills to take the fifth (and last) top QB.

3rdand12 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 certainly is a mystery to me. and good fun. But no way in hell they could start Peterman. The Team would all kneel in protest that Bills are tanking ... lol even the trainers. Does not matter who they draft Bills still need a Veteran in the Room. Period. and maybe they need someone who could start the Season? Eve if they are going to fast Track the Rook. It's Foles, or they are moving up from 12 to secure their vision of the future state in Buffalo Bills Territory and bringing in a Matt Moore to play a couple games. But darn it i really cannot get a bead on them. Well done I say for Beane et al ! If it IS Foles i am going to say I told you so. And they still better draft one of worth and not a 5th round potential back up Go Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally would like the bills to consider making him the bridge? he's the best of those left, imo. Conflicting reports of Patriots' interest in AJ McCarron as Tom Brady's backup by John Breech 1h ago Conflicting reports According to WEEI radio in Boston, the Patriots have made a contract offer to McCarron, although it's not clear how big or small the offer might be. It's also not clear if McCarron is considering the offer and that's because if he signs in New England, he'd basically have a zero percent chance of becoming the starter due to the fact that Tom Brady plans on playing until he's 45. Also, according to the Boston Globe, McCarron never actually received an offer. Whatever happens, it's starting to look like McCarron doesn't have a ton of options, which is bad news when you consider that free agency hasn't even started yet. Although there's been a legal tampering period going on since Monday, free agent players can't start signing new contracts until 4 p.m. on Wednesday. If the Patriots didn't make an offer to McCarron, then it wouldn't be a surprise to see them draft a potential backup for Tom Brady in April. didn't call it, but glad it came to be GO BILLS!!!

N.Y. Orangeman Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 This is so ridiculous. It is pretty clear the Bills picked AJ up on the cheap and didn't believe he was in their plans to begin with; is this so difficult to see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that we are in the Whaley era any more...I don't trust ANY of the information that is shared by Buffalo brass at this point (which is a good thing!).

Unless they're really just that sold on Darnold. I mean, they could still have them both in for private workouts. But why not go to their pro days anyway? Do you know, Did anyone One from the Browns attend? Their asst GM maybe? I dunno - I’m sold on Darnold. I love his game.
