Many pro scouts and general managers -- including the Bills' Marv Levy -- believe the 22-year-old's difficulties with the Cardinal had more to do with a poor supporting cast than his own average play, though. Coincidentally, the same was said about Jay Cutler when he was at Vanderbilt, and now he's an up-and-coming star passer for the Denver Broncos .
As for Losman, the fact of the matter is that he must deliver in his fourth pro season. He has tremendous young talent around him that's led by left-side offensive linemen Jason Peters and Derrick Dockery, standout wide receiver Lee Evans and a three-headed running attack (Marshawn Lynch, Anthony Thomas and Dwayne Wright) that has more promise than nearly any other in the NFL.
Edwards, however, seems like the ideal pro quarterback. He has the size (6-4, 231), smarts, arm strength, and, according to scouts, the accuracy to be outstanding. That means Losman, despite the fact that it's only May, already has more pressure on him for the '07 campaign than any other member of the Bills.
