That’d down the road a little bit, IF Fromm develops. That's exactly what I think. We're trying to set up the backup's replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Geesh - I can't believe the hate being spewed for a QB taken in the FIFTH. Some of you acting like we took him at 54 and are expecting him to take Allen's gig. Chilllll. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn’t one sane person in the US that thinks Fromm is a better QB than Fields (who will be a top 2 pick). Fromm isn’t going to all of a sudden become talented. His ceiling is low. He has a chance to carve out a career as a backup (and a good chance). He is not in any way, shape or form pushing Allen. What exactly has Allen done so far to cement himself as a franchise player? He's had ups and downs, but his future in this league is far from certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 They said the same crap about Brady when he was drafted in the sixth round by you know who. Give him a chance to strengthen his arm. Kid is smart, clutch and a great teammate. I l8ke it, he is a winner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 FWIW, I think that he will bring value in the QB room. Fromm is smart and competitive. It’s not bad value at this point. My objection is to those that will get carried away with the “championship level QB from UGA.” He’s a backup in the NFL (and has a chance to be a good one). The question is, “is he Aaron Murray?” “Is he Chase Daniels?” “Is he AJ McCarron?” The question is not “is he Tom Brady?” “Is he Joe Montana?” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 12 minutes ago, GreggTX said: Best pick so far. I don't know if he'll be good, but until we find a franchise QB we have to keep looking. I'm relieved to know that OBD understands this. Unsure why the laughter on this one. Some are on the Josh is the guy side of the fence, others are on the skeptical side. Either way I think he is should be pragmatically looked as shown signs but not proven side. It is not like the FO took a guy in the second. It’s a 5th and of no completion to JA. Barkley should be worried in the 2021 season though. Also Webb is toast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BisonMan Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 This says a lot about how McBean feels about their roster. They likely don’t see a need that outweighs the value of a backup QB at this point in the draft. They probably thought that any other 5th rounder they would pick wasn’t likely to make the roster anyway. If he develops above expectations, he become trade bait in the next couple of years (ala Jimmy G). If he hits a relatively low ceiling, he’s a career backup. That’s a win-win scenario. It’s not a question as to whether Fromm starts, it’s whether any other pick on the board is likely to make the team. If not, then this is a great pick, even if it’s a risk. There is too much high side value in having a backup QB on a rookie contract. That could save 5+ million in cap space alone. My 2 cents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 If Fromm becomes your 10 year BU to your 20 year QB would that be a wasted 5th round pick? what if flipped for a 2nd in 3 years a wasted pick? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense but your Peterman love makes me question your ability to evaluate QBs. He’s LITERALLY the worst QB to ever play and you wanted more of him. Josh Allen took massive strides in year 2. He makes plays with his arm and legs. He’s competitive as hell. He is great in the 4th quarter. He wins. He leads. If you aren’t happy with Josh Allen 2 years in but you were happy with Peterman before and after the Chargers game we don’t have much to discuss.

Those would both be GREAT situations. I think that he will be the backup this year. My whole point (and I’m clearly not articulating well) is that his ceiling is really low. He could be like a McCarron now but he isn’t ever going to be much better than that IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how the "worst QB to ever play" is still in the league, and as much as I loved him, our coach and GM loved him more, because they started him at the risk of their professional careers and financial well being. You really need to get a new angle, because you're making yourself look foolish after years of not getting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, I don’t see it as a waste at all. I see it as value. Now, I have no idea how it will turn out, but we all want to see them go for value, right? If he can become a solid backup or be flipped for a higher pick, that’s a win where we took him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hebert19 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 21 minutes ago, Brandon said: He's a smart, accurate QB who reads defenses well, played at a high level for several years in a major conference and is known as a good worker and team leader. I think his arm is fine, especially considering that they're asking him to be a backup. Its a good pick in R5. This. And he throws NFL type routes better than anyone not named Burroughs. Back shoulder, timing passes on outs etc. He has unreal touch. Again. Dawgs fan...hes far from perfect but he is going to be an nfl QB for 10 plus years because hes smart l...and works hard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
