On John Skelton

[patmoran2006]

I reported on this back in February and Im still hearing the same thing. Buddy Nix really likes John Skelton and I wouldn't be surprised if he's the quarterback that the Bills go with in this draft if they don't make a trade for Jason Campbell or someone else before April 22.

However while alot of people think he's a mid-to-late round sleeper, I dont see him geting out of the third round.

Re: On John Skelton

I also heard nearly two months ago he liked Jevon Snead, but to be honest I havent heard his name even mentioned in a long time.

I dont know if he's fallen off, or if he's just going very under the radar.

Re: On John Skelton

QB's will be picked far higher than they should be in this draft.

The group as a whole is extremely subpar.

We need to fork over a 5th and Fitz for Jason Campbell, draft Skelton and let him, Edwards, and Brohm duke it out for the 2 spots in TC.

I absolutely love Skelton and have for two months. I think the fact we were only one 6 teams at his pro day (only Cortez was there) and then immediatly had him in for a visit is telling. He's everything you want in a Buffalo qb plus surprising athletecism. I think we gotta take him in the 3rd if we want him, frankly I don't have a problem with that. He's the most intriguing qb prospect in the draft not from FU, Texas, ND or Oklahoma.

Re: On John Skelton

I think a mid to late rd QB is what the Bills should do this year. Concentrate the rest of the draft on the trenches and LB'ers...

Evaluate the QB position in 2010 and then like I've said a few times... make your big move for a franchise QB in 2011

Re: On John Skelton

On a more serious note, I wouldn't be surprised if Houston shows interest in Skelton since this guy is Skelton's uncle.

The same thing happened with Claussen.


I think we could end up with Skelton however. Almost all qb's in this draft are going to be projects anyways. IMO Cortez was brought in since he has experience developing players in a league (CFL) that tends to throw a lot. So I think NIx will be looking for a qb that has an arm.

Re: On John Skelton

I would much rather have Skelton in the 3rd or 4th then Tebow in the 2nd.

9 3/4 isn't small. That's almost another inch around either side of the football compared to Clausen. Now, Clausen can run a pro offense light years better than him out of the box so to speak, but the hands are important.
