There's no shortage of bulked up QBs at the college level that could come in and play like a bowling ball if we wanted that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the extra late picks and what looks a decent class this is the time to swing on a backup QB. 5th round on. And not a Jake Fromm type. Get a guy with some upside not a guy who is undersized and maxed out in college. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 43 minutes ago, margolbe said: NFL Network is reporting that Josh is banged up after the last game. Hopefully he will be good to go on Sunday. But this raises a key issue -- do you want Kyle Allen starting a game? Given the way Josh plays, its only a matter of time before he gets a injury that has him sitting on the sidelines for a while. We all saw this year that a capable backup can take you pretty far. We need to be in a better position next year. Can we just stop this made up narrative? Literally every other QB in the league has been out the past 2 or 3 years except Allen. Nobody says anything about Lamar and he is injured a lot more and has a very slight frame compared with Allen. Nobody says anything about Hurts and he has missed games in both of the last 2 years. And I don't want to hear any Cam Newton nonsense either. Cams shoulder injury which derailed his career was caused by a car accident not in the field. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be in a better position next year. Anyone with a room temperature IQ could tell Josh was a little "banged up" at the end of the game, dont need the "breaking news" from NFL Network. And no right now it is not a "key issue", game Sunday is the key issue, not next years backup QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either this or sign best available FA who accepts vet min or max $1.5M. Do NOT invest cap space in backup QB. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bengals fans probably thought that too, but as it turned out, Browning was pretty damn good and almost got them to the playoffs. I think it's time to draft a day 3 QB to back up Josh.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 1 hour ago, mrags said: Draft one in like rd 4-5 and keep him for the foreseeable future. so if Allen were to get hurt and miss a game or two you want to put a 4th or 5thj round rookie in to take his place??? Teams draft QB's in late rounds when either they don't have an established starting QB or they basically have no other needs for the pick. Think the Bills best plan is to keep doing what they've been doing, sign an experienced QB who is at the point he's not getting a starting QB job in the league. But maybe go for someone with a little better skill set than Kyle Allen. Mitch may be available again or the guy they had last year, but someone of that level.

For anything over vet minimum it’s too much considering the cap strapped hell we will be in. Not to mention, that pretty much no matter what, If Allen goes down we’re not going anywhere anyway.

If they had won one or two of those early-season games, they'd be in the playoffs right now with Browning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he likely isn’t going to find one willing to take vet minimum and be much better than a promising young late rd rookie anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingBoots8 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I think you’d have to draft one currently as we can’t sink an excessive amount of money to a backup position due to cap limitations. If Josh misses a week or two we might survive, but any sort of long-term absence is a nail in the seasonal coffin. Better to suck and get a good draft out of it than finish with 8 wins and miss both the playoffs and elite draft talent. We’ve gotta win the Super Bowl this year first, so we can worry about this in April 😏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
