Re: Hasselbeck?

Hilarious if Titans sign Fitz. He would actually play a good amount for them, Locker seems to get hurt often.

Re: Hasselbeck?

Ugh... can we please stop with the talking about everyone else's cast off QBs?

Re: Hasselbeck?

We should pick him up as Insurance. if we get a guy in the draft that is ready to play asap then we cut him.

Re: Hasselbeck?

no, go all in for geno. do you want a qb or do you want constant 6-10

Re: Hasselbeck?

At this point why not? At least he's a competent QB who has successfully run the system we're looking to implement, unlike TJax.

Because the Bills are better off being awful at this point.

Re: Hasselbeck?

If we sign Hasselbeck, then at least get someone in OBD to have the bawls to say that he is an interim qb until the qb we draft this year or next is ready to start. Its time to put an end to "vagabond journeyman QB X" is our long term solution at qb. If you can't find or sign a better qb say so, don't spin it just be honest. If you sign him and then draft someone in the draft whom you fully believe can turn this thing around then I would be happy.

Was never a Hasselbeck fan. Especially now at this age. However he is about two levels better than Fitzpatrick.

You wanted Akili Smith, Vince Young and JaMarcus Russell too, didn't you.


wait. wait. I hear it coming.... the "Geno Smith is a completely different QB than those guys" excuse.

If this team were ready to compete for the Super Bowl, Hasselbeck would be good insurance, but on this team, there is no point in having him.

Re: Hasselbeck?

No. Spend the FA money on another position, like WR, S, CB, DE etc. Draft your QB in the second round, and roll with him and TJax, maybe Corp for this season then evaluate and move on in '14.

I agree but what other option do we have?

I don't like any of the rookies in this class, but even if we draft one, we still need someone to mentor him and someone to play in case he sucks or gets hurt. At some point we'll have to add someone because I don't think TJax is up to the task.

Re: Hasselbeck?

He doesn't do this team any good at this point in our "rebuilding" or his career. If we can't trade down then take the best player available at one of our multiple positions of need and draft a QB in the second. Unless they really feel Geno Smith(if available) is the real deal then wait until the 2nd round or try to move up towards the end of the 1st round and get ahead of everyone else on the next string of QB's.

We're going to be an awful team whether we draft a QB or not and if he gets injured then we're definitely in trouble. It doesn't really matter if we win 4 games or 6 games at this point.

Unless it's on a one year deal that wouldn't affect us next year I don't even care about signing another QB and would rather roll into next year with a rookie, Jackson and the cheapest developmental 3rd string we could find which would probably be a late round or undrafted QB. I would rather use that money for next year or to try and get Byrd locked into a long-term deal instead of playing on the franchise tag. Either way this is going to be an awful team.
