Logic Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 This pick gave me major deja vu: 1st round QB JP Losman (athletic, big arm, questionable accuracy). Bills draft Trent Edwards (slow, noodle arm, great accuracy and intangibles). 1st round QB Josh Allen (athletic, big arm, questionable accuracy). Bills draft Jake Fromm (slow, noodle arm, great accuracy and intangibles). Will history repeat? I like the pick, by the way. Great value in the 5th, and you should ALWAYS get young QBs into the pipeline and keep churning that position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Braxton Miller have eligibility left? People love their Big Ten guys around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believe what you are spitting out here stand behind it That’s just why you’re so mad at Fromm dude. It’s not his fault Fields got waxed by Clemson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ennjay Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 If he's the second coming of Chad Pennington I'll live with it. Before Pennington's noodle arm gave out he was a really good football player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirAndrew Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 6 minutes ago, JR in Pittsburgh said: Just watching Fromm highlights and the Barkley comparison is spot on. Both Barkley and Fromm have really nice 20-yard touch throws. That’s something that JA could hopefully learn from them! excited to see if he can develop into a player! Yeah. Fromm might end up never making it past the practice squad, or he might become a decent backup. I don’t understand the people who are bent out of shape because “he stinks”. If he doesn’t pan out, that’s fine. It’s worth taking a guy who could become your future backup. I don’t understand how anyone could be upset with the pick, regardless of what you think of Fromm.

Waxed? I don’t remember Fromm in the playoff this year? Again, if you believe what you are saying than feel free to make the wager and you can even name the stakes. I suspect that you are talking out of your backside which is why you won’t stand behind what you are saying. You know that I’m right on this so we are good.

Maybe Cardale will come back now that the XFL folded so we can get some winning QB’s on that OSU roster.

slaphappy Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 So much angst over a backup QB.. This guy was drafted with the goal he will never see the field... and everyone already hates his guts? Just a few years ago people wanted them to draft 43 QB's every year. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweats Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Fromm's a bit of a head-scratcher........you really couldn't have 2 distinctive QB's from each other than Fromm and Allen. I really don't know how i feel about this pick.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 It’s the Pegluas ploy to lure State Farm to pay big money for naming rights to the new stadium. At QB , Jake Fromm State Farm Field! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Allen doesn't pan out then McDermott and Beane are most likely gone, IMO. This is one of those cases where there is no plan B, there is only plan A. And they need to do everything to make it work.

Jerboski Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I like the pick... more insurance just in case for Allen And if allen develops fully and fromm shows promise then we unload him for a 1st or a 2nd down the road. Just now, vincec said: If Allen doesn't pan out then McDermott and Beane are most likely gone, IMO. This is one of those cases where there is no plan B, there is only plan A. And they need to do everything to make it work. Beane and McDermott arent getting fired if Allen doesnt work out... Beane has created a top 5 roster and managed the cap beautifully McDermott 2 playoff appearances in 3 years without top talent on offense Both seats are ice cold regardless of allen 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fender Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 2 hours ago, BillsInMaine said: Fromm is awful Im a Georgia alum and season ticket holder. He’s not awful but he’s an awful fit in Buffalo. His arm isn’t good enough to play at new era field and he has really small hands. He could be a good back up for a dome or southern team but not here. Love our draft but that’s a bad pick.

maryland-bills-fan Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 1 hour ago, Kelly the Dog said: Ball velocity is probably the least accurate stat, if you can even call it that. There are endless examples of guys with lousy arms throwing mph as hard as guys with huge arms. Every year at the combine. It's worthless. Gee, you should figure this out. Think about baseball. Any pitcher can rear back and throw 15 mph above his usual fastball speed. Nobody knows where the ball is going to go. Throwing just for the radar gun is different than getting the ball to the reciever or dropping it over the LB and into the basket of the WR. You can NO throw that at 100 miles an hour. If you look at the videos of this guy, he completes a lot of long passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
