Buffalo Bills Detective Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 In light of former UCLA head coach Jim Mora's comments stating that Darnold fits the blue collar feel/attitude of Cleveland, and the fact that this could indicate that Rosen wouldn't be a fit here, which of these 4 remaining QB prospects do you feel would be the best "blue collar fit" for Buffalo and why?

Mr. ChumChums Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Probably Josh Allen, tbh. His story is pretty blue collar... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threedollabills Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Rudolph is actually white collar type, as in the type of collar a priest wears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smuvtalker Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I'd go Mike White, because his work ethic, style of play, and "show up to work and perform" mentality say blue collar to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Not trying to be a jerk but I kinda of hate the term blue collar. It almost seems like an insult. Fact, most qbs are the least blue collar players in sports. Fitz would try to run over LBs and throw monster blocks. Brady would run the opposite way when he threw an int. I’d rather have sissy, “white collar” Brady over gritty, “blue collar”. But that’s just me.

And the fact he’s not that talented. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The small school guys typically fit too (as would Josh Allen). Basically anyone that wasn’t some elite prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker is the man and I really respect his path... but let's not act like he had to walk on to be a Division 1 football player... he had scholarship offers to Florida Atlantic , New Mexico , Rice, and a late offer to Washington state.. he was a top 50 QB recruit he chose to walk on at Tech Edited March 27, 2018 by Buffalo716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very outdated. Didn't mean to disparage anyone. It was a joke, perhaps in poor taste, that now that they are millionaires they will all be pampered divas. There are certainly many successful people who would consider themselves blue collar. I know a lot of successful real estate developers that are right in the thick of it that work their butts off but meanwhile they own half of Buffalo.

Dadonkadonk Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Jason Peters was blue collar and this fan base ran him out of town. Who cares if the QB likes Buffalo. You think Aaron Rodgers likes Green Bay. Brady spends more time in NYC than Boston. Just win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffBillsForLife Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Caring about things like this are why the Bills have been to the playoffs once in 18 years. Just give me guys who can ball and aren't going to be suspended/thrown out of the league/murder their ex-wives. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
