    Campbell a fine consolation for Buffalo

    In light on Sunday night's Donovan McNabb trade to the Washington Redskins , Campbell could be on his way to Buffalo. The Bills made a play for McNabb and reportedly are interested in acquiring Campbell, who now is unnecessary in Washington.

    To take the matchmaking process a step beyond the initial imagery of Campbell lying in a fetal position, I reached out to Scouts Inc. analyst Matt Williamson for his take on whether Campbell would excel under Bills head coach Chan Gailey.

    "If I were Buffalo, I would send my second-round pick to Washington right now for Campbell," Williamson said. "Right now."


    Campbell is coming off a season in which he completed 64.5 percent of his passes for 3,618 yards and 20 touchdowns with 15 interceptions.
    P
    "I like the fit," Williamson said. "Campbell has upside to me, and I actually thought last year was his best yet. The poor guy has gone through coordinators and offensive systems at a remarkable rate since joining the league. That is just too difficult. You can't succeed that way.

    "In Buffalo, you would hope that he would have Gailey at least for two years and, hopefully, more. There would be much less pressure overall on him. It would be a run-first offense, and I think he certainly has the arm strength and overall physicality to succeed in that weather and environment.

    "His style of play seems to fit the system, environment and franchise as a whole."

    One way we know Jason Campbell would look right at home in a Buffalo Bills uniform is that he knows how to take a sack.Only two quarterbacks were sacked more than Campbell last year, and the Bills arguably had the NFL's worst pass-blocking offensive line.

    Guy must be hitting the peace pipe b/c there is no way I'd give a 2nd for him. 4th or 5th definitely but our 2nd pick? WTH!

      a 2nd? IMO Washington would take a 3rd next year to gain back what they lost for Mcnabb .

          I think it was Williamson's way of saying Buffalo needs to jump on this opportunity as quickly as possible.

            Williamson is also a huge proponent of FootballOutsiders.com, a website that focuses on metric analysis of players. They had Campbell as very slightly worse than McNabb last year and didn't think acquiring McNabb is very much of an upgrade.

              Did anyone else just get that crazy contact/second hand high for him saying a second round pick?

                That's because 302 of them were for less than 10 yards, Commander Checkdown.

                He completed 38 of 93 passes that were over 10 yards, which is 40%.

                        I don't see Nix giving up a second, especially in a deep draft. We all know he wants to build this team from draft day.

                        Maybe a lower pick and a player, or a pick from next year

                          Maybe not a 2nd rounder, however the fact that Campbell could be a fit for the Bills is interesting.

                            I would get rid of my Sunday ticket as soon as the Campbell era starts.
