He's a good guy, hard working, he keeps learning. Because he's only marginal, he doesn't stick with teams. Teams have to perceive a need for a guy like this. The need grows as they get older, because they're important in the QB room. They become solid backups. But early in their careers, they move a lot, because they are only marginal - they are on the margins of being useful. Your backup QB is almost NEVER starter material. Good QBs don't stay on the bench long. But that doesn't mean he isn't or can't be a good backup. If he was the kind of backup teams love them why did we trade him?

bdutton Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 At least we got something for him unlike the trade for Coleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We basically just traded a 7th round pick for $3.5 of dead cap and didn't even give him more than a couple of weeks to adjust. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eanyills Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Hedging your bets that Peterman can hold down the reigns until Allen is ready is a risky bet. Historical odds are stacked against Peterman playing at any kind of consistent NFL level. And throwing Allen into an offense with problems all over the field worries me. I’d liked to have seen Allen stay on the bench until next year but I think he’s going to be seeing the field sooner than later in a season I’m not terribly optimistic about.

That means he's useful to some teams, not others. Bills believe either that the two they have are good enough to be starter and backup, or they believe they're just building for next season. In either scenario, AJ was expendable. Gruden has a different view of what he's doing and where his team is, and AJ offered him what he needed in a backup. 5 minutes ago, eanyills said: Hedging your bets that Peterman can hold down the reigns until Allen is ready is a risky bet.

Not much riskier than going with McCarron. Neither has much experience, and neither has produced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Persoanlly, given the weakness at some other positions, I didn’t think we would keep 3 QBs given Allen has progressed well and doesn’t seem that far off from being capable of starting. But it also doesnt surprise me given none of the QBs are proven really in an actual NFL Game, all showed positives and negatives in camp and preseason, and our OL got 2 of them dinged up already this preseason. Do say everybody. I argued that he would unlikely be cut. He was going to be on the team or be traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Beane's signing, and Dabol is familiar with him, so he has an advantage over the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 2 hours ago, OldTimeAFLGuy said: Patriots have cut QB Danny Etling ......... He would be an excellent choice. I mean, he's a UDFA who couldn't make an NFL roster, so he's certainly not going to come in and light the offense on fire, but he's spent an entire offseason with one of the best teams in the NFL, and they are good in part because of the way the emphasize a lot of the things Sean McDermott emphasizes: doing your job, attention to detail and personal discipline. Secondly, he has learned the terminology of the Erhard-Perkins offensive system. Given that Brian Daboll has spend a significant amount of time with New England under Josh McDaniel and runs the same system, there's going to be a much easier learning curve than if they pick up a castoff QB from a West Coast offense team. Moreover, if Leslie Frasier wants to, he can always pick Ettling's brain on what the evil genius and Josh McDaniel have been doing this summer.
