Shaw66 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 As the first ten picks unfold, if the Bills don't like what they see left on the board, Beane and the Eagles might agree on price for Foles. It might squeeze the Bills on the cap, but maybe that's when they deal Hughes for another pick. I doubt the Bills want to go into 2018 with McCarron starting.

But I just don't think they want him as their starter. I think he's too flawed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's too flawed. I think they are ok with AJ as starter, as long as there’s a rookie QB waiting to take over. That’s why there’s no way the Bills don’t draft a 1st round QB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why there’s no way the Bills don’t draft a 1st round QB. I think that thinking is backwards. That means you bow to the pressure and draft someone just because you need a starter. What if, as I said, they don't like whats left after 10 picks? What if all that's left doesn't look like a starter in year one? That ,ears they have to go with McCarron. Maybe they like him. I don't. If they don't like him, Foles is their option. I mean, I don't know, but they're thinking about stuff like this at OBD. If theyre thinking about it, it could happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sorry, but if the Bills trade Darby, Glenn, Hughes, and TT (although I’m not a fan) and don’t come out of this draft with a top tier QB, I’m lighting my torch and getting my pitchfork. You CANNOT trade all your assets to grab Nick effing Foles for a first and change. Beane is either the smartest GM at the table, or he’s trying to run a team like Madden. I know there are tons on this board who are big fans of Beane, but he has a ton to prove. The FO was mediocre at pro personnel this year, and he’s drafted nobody. That isn’t meant to condemn him, but I think it’s fair for most to sit on the fence. 7 minutes ago, Shaw66 said: I think that thinking is backwards.

Thats why the Bills FO have really forced themselves into trading up, regardless of cost. I dont want to overpay as much as the next guy, but you can’t trade your assets for more picks, on a QB-less team. Otherwise you make the team worse in order to “maybe” be better in 3 years. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also to my knowledge Hughes has not been traded. Glenn - lopsided contract Tyrod - contract; performance Darby - poor fit in defense i agree with you - the team does need to find a QB in this year’s draft. The Foles trade won’t happen, but if it did most of the fans would be pissed 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why there’s no way the Bills don’t draft a 1st round QB. There will be some decent quarterbacks available in the second round: White, Lauletta, and possibly Rudolph. Moving up is not a given and neither is Philly moving Foles. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Hammersticks Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Could they even afford his contract at this point? This doesn’t make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few, if any, good football teams cut quality players because of “fitting the scheme”. I’d like to add that Dareus fists is more off the roster than he does on. It is something bad and mediocre teams do to justify poor decisions. I am more than fine with it, as long as it is too solidly the most important position in football. If Beane cut depth, to build depth, then he’ll be gone in a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree....I think McCarron’s presence nullifies Foles as an option. Beane & tesm dis their homework, they got the guy they wanted. But I do think they take a QB early, just doubt they trade too far up - if at all - to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Foles will likely be available later in the season after Wentz is 100%. By then we will have an idea if McCarron is a ok bridge and if the QB the Bills draft has enough potential. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If McBeane doesnt come out of this draft with a franchise QB they won’t make it to another chance IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
