Keep him working hard! i wouldn’t mind Jackson in the 5th-6th round if he’s there... Expand I would really like that pick. If we are going to tailor the offense around Josh, I think a mobile backup with a big arm would be a very sound investment. I'm sure Palmer is doing very well for himself acting independently, but I kind of wish we would just make him a godfather offer to be the QB coach exclusively with Josh.

Expand So how do you explain his improvements since Anderson got on board? He's the epitome of marginal. Quite often the marginal guys make the best teachers because they were longtime backups and spent more time working on film or imitating the opposing QB in practice 1

Expand Part of me agrees, completely! Another part of me thinks that having Palmer work with Allen outside of the allotted timeframe provided by the CBA is incredibly more valuable. Just take a look at how restrictive the CBA really is: https://www.nflpa.com/active-players/off-season-rules Any extra, McCoach-approved tutelage under a well-respected guide like Palmer is icing, baby; pure icing.

Mr. WEO Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 ohhhhh, but have you SEEN Palmer's footwork....?

Because he would have been working with QB's? And he's developed...who? And Palmer is a coach. Even better, he's a coach who can work with Josh 24/7/52.

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 Thanks for posting Transplant. Good to see JA grabbing the offseason by the proverbial horns and not taking an extended vacay somewhere waiting around for minicamp to call. He just flat out makes it easy to like him as the face of our franchise going forward. 2

(I'm not about to, but you get my drift). Why do people not get that this is a 'win, win' situation for the Bills. CBA rules simply don't allow players to get the amount of reps/practises they need, to hone their craft. Allen working with Palmer, is an opportunity for him to do so, that doesn't contravene the CBA. Expand Great take, Rook. Great take indeed. 1 1

HansLanda Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 Palmer's retainer fees must be amazing. Basically probably takes a cut just like an agent.
Dablitzkrieg Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 It is amazing how some people think this is a bad thing or "it won't do anything". Pound sand already! 3

Expand I think that goes towards maturity and an understanding that he's just started scaling the mountain, and has earned nothing yet besides the right to become even more scrutinized this coming season. The Bills have to translate the growing pains of 2018 into additional W's in 2019, we all know that. But I feel like the foundation is being properly laid. How do you rank your feelings comparatively about the upcoming season with any since the start the turn of the century? 1

Josh already went out there equipped with much of that when he left Buffalo.” Expand It seemed like Allen took steps between the Wyoming season and the Sr Bowl/regular season so hopefully it will continue to help! The only thing I would like better would be the news if he had some of our WR with him, Foster and Zay. 5
