    We had a chance to take matt leinart, a franchise type QB but

    We needed to stretch to get a safety. I really think that finding a franchise QB is the most important thing. You can build a good team around a franchise QB. Right now we have no one that will get us to .500 on the squad, which is really depressing.

    P.S. JP went 2-9 his last year in college, Matt was 37-2 over his whole college career. Who is more likely to win again?

    What is depressing is every stupid post you put up repeatedly.

      Personally I think Matt Leinert would of sucked in Buffalo. He does not possess a strong arm and barely played games in the cold. Buffalo needs a QB with a strong arm when it comes to the colder days in Buffalo. The wind is strong and gets very cold. I just dont think Leinert would of excelled in Buffalo, and would of become a bust.

        Re: We had a chance to take matt leinart, a franchise type QB but

        I could have sworn we've already had this thread a million times.

        1. Leinart doesn't have a strong arm, which is a liability in all the windy cold- weather games we play
        2. Leinart would not be able to contribute right away- it would be at least 2-3 years before he would help this team at all. I don't expect Whitner to make the Pro Bowl or anything, but I do expect to see him starting sooner rather than later.
        3. First round QB's are huge gambles
        4. We don't know what we have in Losman yet- why waste a draft pick on someone who can't help the team now when we might already have someone who can play that position?

        Picking Whitner was a stretch, I'll agree with that. But picking Leinart would have been so incredibly dumb that I can't really find the right words to describe it. Leinart is not the second coming of Joe Montana, so let it go.

            Yeah. Willis didn't have a strong knee and barely played games in the cold...

            I don't buy the "doesn't have cold weather experience crap" unless you are a kicker/punter.

            Brett Favre is from Mississippi and had a weak arm coming out of college... he did fine in Green Bay.

              Show me one scouting report that had Favre with a weak arm. Or could it be that you are making crap up to support your point of view?

                  I agree, but Willis did play in the Big East where you do travel to cold places such as Pitt, Morgantown, Rutgers, BC. All depends though when they are scheduled, but he had to visit there at least once. Running backs also stay alittle warmer because they move more. But Leinert doesnt seem like the type to develope a strong arm. Anyways, I just dont think he would of been a good fit though.

                    You're right... I cannot show you a scouting report in which Favre was touted as having a "week" arm. My bad.

                      Thank you professor for pointing out my typo, but still waiting for that scouting report.
