AuntieEm Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 30 minutes ago, Breakout Squad said: I agree. They wouldn’t sign him if he was a distraction, or at least I hope Beane and McD know that. I sound redundant but Kyle Allen is not a good NFL QB. We need a reliable option… I thought Trubisky was the best back up. Keenum could play. KA looks inept. Well I'm willing to see how he does after he's had time with practicing with team and knowing playbook better. When u got so much talent in ur qb1 u aren't gonna find a great match for qb2.

I agree that Kyle Allen is the backup. But if Matt Barkley getting the first reps in the 2nd PS game and the supposed off air leaked audio from the Bears booth is any indication - they aren't exactly 100% comfortable with him if Josh goes down. With that said, I'd expect someone who has experience and can be more comfortably called upon in an emergency as opposed to a young developmental player without any experience. But we will see. Maybe I'm wrong. Edited August 31, 2023 by BillsFanForever19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeAndy Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I’m definitely on the Matt Corral train, surprised he hasn’t been added to a roster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I think it will be a QB who will still thinks he still can be a starter and will be willing to sign to PS so he will get NFL exposure even if it is just reporters talking about practices and speaking to players and staff on his preparation. My preference would be someone who may have seen things Josh has not. The Bills already have a younger QB on roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely Whenever I think of the perfect practice squad candidate, I think of a player that can emulate Josh Allen’s play so that the defense can practice against mobile QBs Ideally, I just like to see Kyle Allen replaced and put on the practice squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Trevor Siemian is a guy that at the very least seems that could step in and play. Yet pursuing a developmental guy isn't a bad idea. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the Bills signed a ‘pocket QB’ they could game plan to his strengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the stories about him marching around the locker room in Philly telling teammates they were with team Wentz or team Foles are frightening. Word on the street is he wasn’t like that until he married that Megan Markle chick. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 From the look of most of these responses, there's nothing but scraps left. So can someone please assure me Josh won't get injured this season, buying us time to draft a real backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a problem when he was the #2 Pick in the Draft, Franchise QB, with a Superstar season, and when he was an unquestioned starter or in a competition for the Starting Role. Now he's a guy who is unemployed. Can't even get a backup job. He has to be on his best behavior. As a Practice Squad QB behind someone like Josh Allen, what kind of trouble can he really cause? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wentz sucks at football. There is no reason to even consider him. It is insane that two teams traded high draft picks for him after his flameout in Philly. Just shows how incompetent some teams are, as if we needed more evidence. At least Corral is an unknown and has some potential upside.

At least Corral is an unknown and has some potential upside. He was an All Pro in 2017. He has played well in the past. Yes, he's also looked bad in different situations often. But we're not asking him to start. He's a Practice Squad QB, Backup at best. And when looking at a Backup, a guy who has the potential to perform well is about the best you can ask for. That said, I think Matt Corral is more likely. Especially after reading Frank Reich wants him back and he didn't come back yet: https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/2023/08/30/panthers-frank-reich-i-would-love-to-get-matt-corral-back/ https://www.panthers.com/news/panthers-add-11-players-to-the-practice-squad Edited August 31, 2023 by BillsFanForever19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
