DCofNC Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 7 hours ago, MiltonWaddams said: I actually disagree. Mapletron, Diontae and JuJu are not trash at all. Ben was a noodle armed QB for 2 seasons with those three and they produced. JuJu is a bit of an internet diva and Claypool needs Hines Ward to smack him hard in the face and show him what being a pro looks like, but the talent is there. Diontae couldn’t catch a cold, Maple syrup hasn’t done anything and JuJu is a #2 playing as a #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Duffy Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 The few times he was able to finish out games he did great and took advantage of those opportunities. I assume that's part of reason some GM's/FO's etc may consider taking a chance on him believing he has learned and improved during his time with Bills and think he can do well if having a decent surrounding cast similar to what Bills have.

Diontae is the number 1 - 63.3% of targets, 169 targets for 107/1161/8. Short aDOT but thats to be expected with Ben at QB. He had 5 drops in 2021 after 13 in 2020. Diggs caught 62.8% of targets 164 targets for 103/1225/10. His aDOT was 11.1 after 10.1 in 2020. Diggs also had 5 drops after 8 in 2020. My guess is the Giants. Daboll request and give him a fat guarantee - then decline jones option and move him to someone like pittsburgh, washington, or TB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but slight difference lol...and I'm not advocating for any PS performance by any means, imo the few games he came in relief he was great. One he got close to entire 4th quarter if I'm not mistaken. Anyways, I think it's possible teams look at him as learning more and performed well in Bills offense.

When he did, other than to take a knee, he looked like not much. Hard to say he performed well....or much at all this season, for anyone outside of the organization to form a new opinion about this guy. He threw 8 passes for 43 yards--one of them was intercepted. No one cares about PS, much less 1 Quarter of play in 1 of those games. Edited March 1, 2022 by Mr. WEO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I'm just saying that maybe that has a little to do with why some of these teams believe he did well here and considered a starter. I mean surely they aren't going off his work with last season as Bears QB.

Maybe you are thinking of the Bills blowout loss to the Colts, where, after scoring a meaningless 4th Q TD early in the 4th, Allen sat down and Trusbisky played the rest of the Q. He completed 3 short passes (on a 14 yard drive), then tossed the INT that allowed the Colts to run out the clock. Possibly it was the blowout of Houston where McD would not put him until the Bills were up 33-0 with 8 min left. He completed a pass and ran in for a 4 yard TD. That makes him an attractive starter somewhere else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also alluding to what Nagy showed them this past year, apparently, makes it look like he ruined Trubisky and maybe he’s salvageable now that he’s out from under him. Imo the main thing is it’s a poor draft if you need a starter. He’s all of a sudden looking like an option whereas last year he was on the scrap heap.

Some GM is going to talk himself into believing that Mitch was a victim in Chicago and all he needs is a good coach and solid team around him. And who knows? Maybe they’d be right. I wouldn’t stake my career on it, but they probably won’t have to either. He’s a perfect candidate for a 3 or 4 year deal that is really a reasonable (by NFL QB standards) one year deal with performance bonuses and an option for the rest at starting QB rates.

I get it, Nagy is a bum (although not sure what he's supposed to do with Justin Fields). And with the NFL wheeling out scrubs like Cam Newton, Teddy Bridgewater, Brissett, Heinicke, Glennon, Siemian, etc---sure a lot of people might think Trubisky could certainly fall into that kind of "starter" group.

YoloinOhio Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Quote Washington's new tight ends coach Juan Castillo was with Trubisky for one season in Chicago, and Rivera remains tight with Buffalo Bills coach Sean McDermott and Bills' general manager Brandon Beane. They can provide good insight on Trubisky's development after his one season in Buffalo. Washington left tackle Charles Lenoplayed with Trubisky in Chicago. https://www.espn.com/blog/washington/post/_/id/42318/russell-wilson-or-aaron-rodgers-to-commanders-team-exploring-all-qb-options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
