When does anyone think that Edwards will ever see the field and why?

[Statman]

Just posing the question.

It seems to me that it was only a great pick if he ever contributes and makes an impact.

Also, once, if ever, he does start with Losman as our starter, how many seasons does it take for him to get up to speed?

Great pick for where we are?

If we lose three or four players every year and backfill with fewer, then you can do the math.

Look at his injury report. This guy has been more injury prone than your boy Robosack. He'll never see the field .

Teams still need a solid back-up. There are several possible outcomes:

1. He is a bust and never plays.
2. JP regresses and Edwards is a future starter.
3. Edwards loks good in pre-season and plays well in limited starts due to JP injury. The Bills trade Edwards ala Schaub.
4. JP gets hurt at some point and Edwards caretakes the team to enough victories to scure the playoffs ala Frank Reich.

Solid backup, future trade potential.

Good pick.

here's the bright side to picking Wright , Edwards and Poz , should the NFl decide to have a spelling bee contest, no one's gonna touch the bills. They're all academically smart. We've become a breeding ground for future coaches.

If he takes the job away from Losman eventually...Good. That means we upgraded a starter.

If Losman continues to improve, and Edwards beats out Nall for #2...Good. That means we upgraded an important back-up.

If Losman remains the starter, but unfortunately suffers an injury and Edwards replaces him short term and helps the team win...Good. Every team needs a capable back-up that can play like a starter when needed.

If Edwards flat-out sucks, remains injury-prone, can't replace either QB, never sees the field for whatever reason...Bad. Wasted pick.

If he shows potential but JP is better and we can pull of a Schaub like trade in the future......Good.

You'd be dead 5x over if you played behind that line and with that much lack of talent on offense. He was their whole damn team.

We gave up a 3rd rounder for the 3rd best QB, i'm already over it!

He provides competition, and insurance in the event of injury or Losman somehow getting away when his contract is up.

Some poster here was right. Some of you guys were gonna put a spin on Marv's picks and attempt make them look better than they really are. Marv dropped the ball on Nall. He's not gonna be here any longer.

Excuse us for reading the scouting reports. Marv dropped the ball on Nall? When did we decide to only have two QB's on the roster?

JP will be gone.

I can't remember who raised the point in another thread, but it was this:

Frank Reich was drafted in the 3rd round 2 years after Jim Kelley was drafted.

How many times did he come to our rescue? Does Houston-38, Buffalo-41 ring a bell?
