Which Trash-Heap QB Would You Have Signed?

Sal on WGR said that Chad needs to be out of Buffalo.  He has too many bad connections around Buffalo and will likely find trouble.  He needs a fresh start and it’s really too bad Denver didn’t work out 

so....what do we have to lose by giving him an interview? it doesn't have to be a big public show.

He's not wrong.  

 

But Kaepernick's biggest problem is: who the hell wants to sign a backup who generates a "Why isn't he starting???" QB controversy the instant he signs?

So, people would rather sign Chad Kelly over Colin Kaepernick? Pre draft, I was a proponent of Chad but due to revisionist history I learned that he can't be trusted. Kaepernick is the kind of QB this team needs right now. Someone who can beat you with his arm as well as his legs. Sure, the circus would come along with his signing but it would also help this organization in two ways. One, it would help with the recent controversy involving Terry Pegula. Two, Kaepernick would give the Bills offense the boost it needs with his ability to run and throw. Why waste spectacular defensive performances by this team over a, IMO, non controversy controversy. We can't keep putting statues behind this porous offensive line. I also see people saying bring back Tyrod. Why not get a better version of Tyrod that won't cost you any assets? This team has the bullets to win, just need a better gun to shoot from.

I'd bring in Kaepernick for sure. I'm in the minority, I guess, his political views don't bother me at all. May actually go good in our locker room, most of our players are black. Sure, why not? Would make the rest of the season interesting. I'm down.

It would surely piss Trump off!! First, he lose team to the Pegulas. Then they hire his nemesis.

What is there to really talk about. He's said hes sorry, learned from his mistakes and it won't happen again a couple times already.  

 

The kid is talented but repeatedly makes terrible decisions off the field. The people saying his family will keep him in line over look that he's lived with his family for 18 years and look where we're at. 

 

I want the kid to succeed but like Sal c said I don't think buffalo is the right fit for him.

Pat White, Mike Kafka, John Skelton, Joe Webb, Jimmy Clausen, talk Tony Romo out of the booth, Ryan Mallett. 

Thanks for the new names. Pretty sure Pat White said he's retired. I always thought he would've been the ideal backup for Tyrod. And Joe Webb is on the Texans, unless they've cut him.

I'm a Trump supporter, but I think Trump is very wrong on Kaepernick. I think the entire NFL is wrong on Kaepernick. Guy deserves the right to speak, he isn't promoting drugs or violence, he is promoting equality, why he is being punished I do not know.

well in buffalo he won't be able to confuse protein bars with proweed bars. probably doesn't go well with doing shots at a party.

Unfortunately because there are a lot of people who don't want equality.

It wouldn't matter.  They are all trash heap QBs.  They should have done a better job at getting a vet in during the offseason and or not traded away McCarron.  I don't care if Peterman looked better in preseason.  McCarron was the vet on the team that Allen/Peterman were suppose to learn from and he was here in camp to learn the offense.

Honestly I would have rolled the dice on Chad Kelly, knowing full well there would be a 25% chance he'd do something stupid to embarrass the team. He's the only FA QB who has any real skills.

From what I've seen about it here in Denver, it amounts to this: he was obnoxious at Vonn Miller's Halloween Party. He got kicked out. He wandered into someone else's house but didn't do anything threatening or violent. This is not banishment from the league type stuff.

Sign him, if only because it would be fun. Fun is good when you're a losing team going nowhere this year. It makes fans pay attention when they'd ordinarily start tuning out. What do you have to lose?

OK, I'll throw out some names. (I couldn't do a poll on my phone.)

- EJ. Hey, he's got a better track record than Barkley, and we just signed Barkley!

- Derek Anderson (because, well, you know why)

- Tom Savage

- Landry Jones

- Thad Lewis (I have warm and fuzzy memories)

- TJ Yates. He specializes in this role, the midseason addition thrown out there to the wolves.

- Matt Barkley. Because you think McBeane knows best after all.

- Matt Moore. Because he's kind of the slightly wealthier man's Derek Anderson

I agree with Ej. He was actually quite good last year when he played for Carr. I'm actually surprised not a single team picked him up. His last start he had 300 yards and 3 tds. That sounds like heaven to me at this point
