Royale with Cheese Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 If you’re looking for a traditional pocket passer, McCaron. If you have an offense better geared for a mobile QB, Tyrod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the playoff game against the Jags he kept hugely overthrowing open receivers he DID see and WAS throwing to. There is that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills1212 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 not to be a jerk... but who cares? we saved cash- have a bit of an unknown- gained an asset- and TT is no longer our problem. woulda, coulda, shoulda, but it is what it is. Moot point. Lets look forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfanAZ Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Getting a 3rd for Taylor was a great move by Beane. When Taylor first came to the Bills, he had hardly played at all. At least McCarron has a little bit of starting experience and is not afraid to throw the ball. Nobody should expect McCarron to come in and light it up. The Bills will get their QB in the draft. The Bills may take a step backwards until that rookie can show he can play. Building for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaw66 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 I agree with others that since they're building for the future, McCarron plus the draft pick plus the lower cap hit is the way to go. On top of that, Taylor's upside is pretty clear; McCarron's isn't. So there's a chance, slim though it may be, that McCarron could become your long-term solution. Moreover, by reducing the cap hit, etc., Bills may have left themselves in a position to force the Eagles to lower their price for Foles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBear Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 McCarron, imo. Younger, cheaper, better measureables and a better/more refined thrower from the pocket. A "bridge" guy is someone you throw out there not to lose you a game. Execute the gameplan and hit the easy throws. I think either of these two can do that, but as stated above, McCarron is younger and cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KGun12TD Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Don't we already know what TT is? Yes, we do! He's not good. We don't know about McCarron. Only time will tell and I am one fan that's ready to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatonka68 Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 pretty much a draw, tie breaker is the salary & potential which makes McCarron a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 29 minutes ago, longtimebillsfan said: Now that we have our "Bridge "QB, I got to thinking, did we trade Tyrod too soon? I , for one, am glad that we signed AJ McCarron. I am not a Tyrod hatter, but I can understand that McBeane wanted to move on from the Wrex experiment. But given the limited experience of McCarron and the fact that Tyrod did enough (with some luck) to get the bills to the playoffs, should we have kept TT as our Bridge? Who cares? Thank the Lord that the Tyrod experiment is over in Buffalo. Let the coaches and the front office do their job. They clearly have said Tyrod is not the guy. Wish him well in Cleveland.

ProcessTheTrust Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 If AJ can be that guy he showed in his few starts, AJ all day. That guy on this team would blow our minds and make it hard for the coaches to make the transition to the rookie. That said, I think TT will be a great fit for Cleveland. I think Hue will know how to get the most out of him, not trying to squeeze him into a pocket guy. Draft Barkley 1st overall and have the nastiest backfield (Barkley/Hyde/TT) in the league.

transplantbillsfan Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 McCarron with this contract because it makes it that much easier for a rookie we draft to start at any point, including potentially week 1 in 2018. We got McCarron for less than 1/3rd of the price of what Taylor would have cost us this year. We have a great QB situation for a 1st round rookie to come in and compete against some legit competition rather than a JAG like Savage or Moore so that if the rookie wins the job out the gate, we have a really good backup QB.
