    Report: Matt Barkley met with Bills, Jets

    The quarterback-needy teams in the AFC East both have their eye on USC prospect Matt Barkley. According to Peter King of Sports Illustrated, Barkley met with nine teams at the NFL combine -- and the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills were in that group.

    Well, after hearing Barkley talk about Cali QBs, I like him a lot more than I did. He said he is not a Surfer dude, Football is his passion. I do like the sound of that, but I still don't think he has a strong enough arm for Buffalo.

          Can you please get past your blind narrow hate of all things USC Barkley would be good value in the 2nd Round

          Here to point out the obvious....

            Blind narrow hate? The guy regressed greatly his senior year and is coming off an injury. And he won't be there in the 2nd. If the FO wants him, it's gotta be at 8. And that's terrible value.

              I would love to see the Jets draft him at #9. He would be a good fit on that team with Sanchez.

                We all should hope that the Bills interview every QB in this draft.

                  I don't necessarily love him, but the terrible value thing is overrated.

                  Didn't you buy a huge screen LED LCD tv within a couple of months of it first coming out? Wouldn't it be much better value to wait until the prices drop after a couple years? But no, you wanted it AT THE TIME so you paid premium for it. That's how it works, if you want something, especially if you NEED something desperately, you go get it even though you're paying more than you have to for it.

                    Just stop with the value crap.

                    Will Matt Barkley solve our problems at quarterback? Yes or no.

                    If the answer is yes, you pull the trigger. PERIOD. END OF STORY. CLOSE THE BOOK AND RETURN TO THE LIBRARY.

                        What is funny is I was thinking about my TV TODAY. I did wait a while & bought a refurbished 47" VIZIO on EBAY for $400. I think I could get a better deal today.

                          I don't disagree. In fact i said somwthing similar in a different thread. Here's the problem: we don't know the answer to that. No one does, and no one will until he's been aging for two years or so.

                          So, who's most likely to give us the most value at 8? Given Barkley's injury and regression, it ain't him.

                            Let's just hope that it would work out better than those folks (myself included) that bought into WebOS..or the first people that bought the plasma televisions that got images burned into them...or the people that bought Windows Vista...or anyone who bought mini-disks...or Sega 32X...or HD DVD players...or a Zune.

                              You paid $400 for it? What a terrible value. Should've waited 6 months and got it for $300. In the meantime you should've used the extra $100 to fill some other void in your life, for better value. Of course, that's because we know exactly when the price point is good enough value for us to buy. In fact, I bet making millions on the stock market would be so easy because we know to pass on terrible values when we see them, knowing the future and all.
