BillsFanForever19 Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Word going around on nfl.com is that Shane Matthews has resigned, but still needs to be talked into staying around past training camp. Given this situation, who would you like to see as our #3 QB? I for one would like to see Tory Woodbury given a shot at it. He's a guy who could also play WR and Special Teams. He was an interesting project for the Jets. I also think it's due time that an african-american QB land a spot on the Bills roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 Give me a break. 323018[/snapback] Give you a break? I am simply pointing out Buffalo has never had a black QB on their team (at least that I know of). What's wrong with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted April 29, 2005 Author Share Posted April 29, 2005 Well then, that begs the question: Is Woodbury the best available black quarterback? 323034[/snapback] I don't know. But he's definitely the best one on the Bills roster lol Seriously though, I didn't think that one comment would be as big as it has been made out to be. Race aside, with Shane being constantly unsure and constantly saying he wants to retire; i'd like someone else at the #3 QB position. I like that Woodbury is on the team and can also play WR and Special Teams. I think he'd be a good fit at #3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campy Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Given this situation, who would you like to see as our #3 QB? 323011[/snapback] I think every effort should be made to bring Shane back. I've read articles where Wyche and JP have both credited him with helping JP along. It sounds like they got along very well, and it sounds like Shane had JP's ear from the get-go.

I agree with Campy that Matthews should be the priority, it just sucks that it seems that his heart just isn't in it. I'm stoked about the Holcomb signing and think that was TD's best offseason move. Hopefully the Bills won't need a #3, but there's no telling what can happen when you have starting QB that can run the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 If we need an African American QB, tell the Eagles to send us McNabb or the Vikings to send us Culpepper. I'd trade JP for either one. But to suggest Woodbury make the team because of the color of his skin is absurd. For the record the Bills were one of the 1st teams ever to have an African American QB. He played with the Bills from 1969-1971 and had some good years with the LA Rams. His name is James Harris, he is now VP of player personnel in Jacksonville. We also had Willie Totten on the strike team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarthur31 Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I could care less about the color of his skin. Is he the best we have at that position? That is all we need to concern ourselves with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is doing quite well in NFLE, I say give him a chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABills Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Ummm.... James Harris.... 323189[/snapback] Cannon for an arm, no touch what so ever. Overall not a very good QB, but I did watch him in a couple games, can't remember if it was regular or pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyeBill Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I guess Shane Matthews won this in a lock. Doesn't surprise me. Get someone who is talented, servicable, but won't complain about being 3rd on the depth chart. That's difficult in today's NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
