DJB Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) Sounds crazy right? Well I could see this happen. The Jets look like they will be in the hunt for a new QB at the draft. (Not here to argue whether that is the right decision or not. However teams that don't win a game usually draft a QB). While we haven't seen Fromm, Barkley is a replacement level backup. Plus everyone knows that Josh and Sam are super tight. Is it likely the Jets move Darnold out of the AFCE? Likely. But I don't think its a crazy scenario that Darnold ends up in Buffalo somehow. Thoughts Bills fans? Edited November 23, 2020 by DJB 1
Numark3 Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 Why are we trading a good draft pick for him though? 2 1
YoloinOhio Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 No way are they trading him in the division or the Bills are giving up draft picks for a Backup QB 12
Victory Formation Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 He’ll fetch a 2nd I’m sure and I doubt they’d trade him to us nor I doubt Buffalo would give up that much capital for a backup.. gimme the worst backup QB in the NFL.. if Josh goes down, tank for high draft picks..

Walking Tall Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 Sam Darnold will not be a Buffalo Bill. He will want to go to a place where he can start. Look for him to be in a place like Chicago, New Orleans or San Francisco. 7
Warcodered Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 I mean maybe someday but not for the next few years probably.
Mat68 Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 They could possibly pull a day 2 pick. Im not doing that for a backup. If hes cut? I would see what it would cost.
Buftex Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 The next team Darnold goes to will view him as their potential starter...not a backup for another guy the same age. 2 1

JGMcD2 Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 Mitch Trubisky will be signed as our backup QB in the off-season.

Say more Since I believe the Bears are the last team Matt Barkley started for, what are we, the Rest Home for booted Bears QBs?

I think Mitch has a similar skill set to Josh, at least closer then Barkley. Mitch will come pretty cheap because he’s been bad in Chicago. Bills liked Trubisky coming out of college. I just think it makes a lot of sense. On 11/23/2020 at 3:10 AM, Simon said: Another Carolina connection! Expand Haha it never ends! I also think that Nagy gets fired this year and both Daboll and Bienemy get HC jobs. I wouldn’t be shocked if we pursued Nagy to be our OC (was McDermott’s first choice when he came here I believe, then Childress and eventually we hired Dennison), but I bet he ends up in KC. Dorsey will likely become OC. All speculation of course. Edited November 23, 2020 by JGMcD2

I just think it makes a lot of sense. Expand Closer than Barkley I grant. I was hoping that we'd used a 5th round draft pick on a backup QB since we didn't use it on a TE or a LB or a G or a DT or some useful player like that. I guess Fromm is enough of a dark horse that even if they like what they see in his solitary Covid Camp, it would make sense they want to sign someone else. I wonder if one of the teams that need a QB will figure maybe the Bears are just one of those teams that make QBs look bad and take a flyer on him to compete as a starter.
SCBills Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) I’d be down for Trubisky. Darnold isn’t happening, and I’d be shocked if he fetched a 2nd with only one year left before the option year and the Jets unable to get him on the field to prove anything.
