Why would people hate Fromm? He is on the Bills and has way more upside than Barkley. It’s always good to have an adequate backup. If Fromm comes in and plays well at some point over the next couple years, maybe the Bills can trade him for a decent pick. 

Is all of your animosity towards Fromm due to the text exchange? 


Animosity?  Hate?

Yes, people hate him due to a sarcastic text message conversation that we will never know the context to. 
 

Before that was leaked he was supposed to win the job this summer and go on to OROY awards

I am a little surprised its only a QB.  Seems like a few PS guys ought to get the same treatment, especially if they can play multiple positions like say the OL.  this would be preparing for an outbrake.  Not a fun prospect, but the best prepared team in this regard might win a game or two they might not otherwise win.  Maybe a rb, maybe a wr,  maybe a DL guy or a CB.  sound crazy, but, how bad do you want to win????  Likely to slow the development of those being isolated, but, its a be ready now stragedy...and next man up has a new meaning in this virus world.

 

What about a kicker who can punt, do extra points and gives a chance on FGs?

Wait, What?

 

I mean, no question Fromm was a highly successful college QB and that's to his credit.  The hope is his strong football brain can overcome his limited arm and he might be able to take over for Barkley; the hope is also he has firing neurons saying "This Here's the Fleet, Sonny; that throw won't work here!" where Peterman had a great big sack o' endless hopes and prayers.

 

But who exactly thought Fromm was supposed to win the job over Josh Allen?

If you don't know the context, how can you label it as sarcasm?  Sarcasm is more likely in your second sentence.  Common man.

Unfortunately there were actually 1 or 2.

Don’t hate him.  Just wish he was an elite white like Brady, Manning and not like Peterman. 

He hasn’t even thrown a pass yet and you’re comparing him to Peterman ?

kind of sucks for him.

I think COVID-19 is the main reason he's on the 53 man roster instead of the PS.  So at least he's collecting and NFL paycheck.  Granted it's a paycheck for a rookie drafted fairly late, but it's better than a practice squad player gets, and he gets to sit around and play video games.  They probably have him participate in meetings via zoom though.
