The Afternoon Blitz was just interviewing Cincy QB Carson Palmer and he relesed the information that his brother Jordan just had a workout with the Bills. I'm looking for a link on this now. He might not be the answer but he should provide decent depth if added to the squad.

Re: Jordan Palmer QB
Palmer was a guy I was interested in the Bills outright drafting in April. He played fairly decently in college and has the pedigree. I'd be all for him being our third option ahead of Freakin Eakin.
Obviously, he wouldn't be brought in as a starter or even option to be a starter...he's a project with upside.Comment

Re: Jordan Palmer QB
If he's half as good as his brother, it's 10x better than what we have right now.Comment

Re: Jordan Palmer QB
Now thats a word problemOriginally posted by jfreemanI remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: Jordan Palmer QB
I would absolutely love it if they signed him. Kid has as much potential as Carson but just couldnt put it all together in College. Kid was dynamite for UTEP one year though.COMING SOON...

Re: Jordan Palmer QB
Well, looks like I ought to change my sig soon...Good riddance Fairchild. Of course, the knowledge of your departure will only make TE more hateable than the typical Bills QB. Good luck, hope we don't mess you up like JP.Comment

Re: Jordan Palmer QB
John Guy schedules potential players to come in and work out all the time, much like other teams. It's a " just in case of injuries " scenerio.
About 2% of these guys actually sign. I read nothing into this.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for witComment

Re: Jordan Palmer QB
I finally got a response on this from the Bills Bulletin main man:
AskChrisThe Bills work out players every Tuesday. Oftentimes it is to have up to date numbers and figures on potential additions in the event that they need to add one because of injury. Jordan Palmer wasn't the only QB in for a workout. Unfortunately I'm prohibited from naming names.
I wouldn't expect them to add a 3rd QB with all the injury problems they have at other positions. THey need bodies they can use on the field every week, not one that holds a clipboard.

Chris,
While listening to Sirius' Afternoon Blitz yesterday, Cincy QB Carson Palmer was being interviewed and he indicated that his younger brother Jordan just had a workout with the Bills. Can you validate this and do you have any information on how that workout might have turned out?
Thanks,
Bill Burke
