Drafting a QB......

[Dr. Lecter]

Since the Bills look like they will likely take a QB on Day 2 to be the #3 guy, who do you prefer?

I would not mind Jared Zabransky in round 7. Maybe Jordan Palmer in round 6.

[Mr. Pink]

Palmer may still be available in Rd7...Tyler Palko would be another interesting guy if available in 6 or 7 too.

[User Manuel]

I like production. Zabransky was a leader and productive. I think that is the type of guy you get unless a guy really falls.

I like Palko too.

[Neggie Nancy]

Doesnt matter.. I think whomever it is will only hold the clipboard.

I think Nall is locked into the #2 spot now and if for any reason Losman totally tanked or whatever; we'd be looking for a starter after the season.

Kelly Holcomb

[alohabillsfan]

I am going to get blasted for this but....
I like Chris Leak, yes he does not posess the arm for the out passes but I don't want him as a starter. I want him to be able to come in and play! He is smart and a good locker room guy!

[Pinkerton Security]

while i agree that he will be a clipboard jockey, i would like to see Zebransky, almost simply bc he played at Boise State and I love watching them play. He has guts too.

I wouldn't mind Palko at all. I got to see many of his games and he got better each year he started.

Speaking of players who can't hack it in the NFL lets go with Toby Korrodi.

"Quarterback -- The acquisition of veteran Kelly Holcomb in what otherwise is referred to as the ''Spikes trade'' makes it less likely the Eagles will use one of their first-day picks on a quarterback, particularly since it will be difficult to carry four quarterbacks on the 53-man roster. A year from now, however, this could be more an area of priority, especially if Donovan McNabb misses significant time again."

its sad, but i feel like holcomb is actually gonna do well should he see the field in philly, what with brian westbrook running around and catching lots of Holcomb's mini-throws.

[bigbub2352]

personally i think that the bills will not take a Qb in the draft, they have Eakon in NFLE, and they will sign a UDFA, why waste a pick on a QB, when u can just sign the guy who has just as much potential as any QB in this class that is rated to go in the 6th or 7th, i wouldnt mind Leak bein brought in here as a UDFA, see if he cant play anything else besides QB

Bills fans and Holcomb haters can bash all they want - but The Holcomb is the prototypcial west coast QB and that's why Andy Reid made a move for him.

Whether it's downfield, or dink and dunk - The Holcomb will make huge plays with the talent he has to work with in Philly.

I can't believe I'm biting on another Holcoblow topic but...

How can he be a prototypical WC QB when he's never played in a WC Offense?

Quick Release, excels in pass oriented attack, outstanding accurancy with short to mid range throws, solid downfield passer as well.

Holcomb is tanned, rested and ready my man.

He's gonna lose that tan quickly in Philly winter!

And of course he's rested, he's a career backup journeyman!

I am now done with this holcoblow jackoff-sorry if that's a violation of TOS, proceed.

[Jan Reimers]

There is a guy from East Carolina, James Pinkney, with decent size, good mobility and a strong arm. He's pretty raw, but worth a look in the 7th round. He may have more upside than guys like Palko and Zebransky.

[BILLSROCK1212]

i like James Pinkney too infact i like a lot of the day 2 QBs but if we could grab Isiah Stainback that would be great....he is like Seneca Wallace V. 2.0

~The Answer

uh... Reid didn't "make a move for him". Holcomb was a throw in. we wanted to get rid of him and Reid figured he'd grab whatever he could. He'd have taken the midget trainer guy just as well. If Holcomb is not even on the roster in september, I'd not be suprised.

I also liked him during his college career. Posted that yesterday in Draftboy's Situation V thread.

for that matter where is Koy?

Footnote: I was watching old tapes from 1996....saw a detmer jersey, i was like...um when did those guys retire anyway?

[BSU Drew]

I go to Boise State and I went to every home game last season and Zebransky would be a great 2nd day pick up. When he wants to play the guy is amazing. He can run and has a decent arm. I would be stoked if they picked him up.

Detmer was the Browns opening day starter in 1999. Of course, he didn't last more than one game in that role and Couch took over.
