Since most disappeared I do think there is proof that they were real or live as even @Roger Goodell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about posters, but there was definitely a Boston sportswriter who before the 2020 season predicted Fromm would end up as the Bills starter before the end of the season. I think it was wishful thinking on his part because deep down he knew the only way the Patriots would ever win another AFC east title would be after Josh is no longer the Bills starting QB.

I remember quite well. I remember one of the posts was Fromm comes from a “ big boy” conference and will supplant Allen. Quick stroll in the archives every once in awhile is a pleasant read.

There were more than one national sportswriters who thought the Bills drafted Fromm in the 5th round to "push" Allen and take over from him if he didn't improve fast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeBreton Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Fromm was a total waste of a draft pick. I feel like they didn’t even scout or watch him but just picked him because he fell so far, all the other teams were right though. Granted we did have may too many picks in 2020 but still, just seems wrong to draft like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had him pretty high on their board at that point. The Bills don't have a long term answer at backup QB & the 5th was as good a round as any to try to find one. Unfortunately, Fromm didn't show much from the time he got here. Last year reports out of camp were pretty dismal & this year they didn't get much better. They gave him the beneit of the doubt because they didn't have the normal off season practices last year and no preseason games. When I heard Fromm was starting Sunday my 1st thoughts were he's going to have a game rivaling Peterman's career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was only able to keep QB job over Fields in Georgia because of nepotism 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
