    Bills will explore all avenues for Quarterback

    Without elucidating his plans for EJ Manuel, new coach Rex Ryan acknowledged last week that theBuffalo Bills' quarterback situation is "unresolved."
    Although Ryan is "excited" to work with Manuel, he made it clear in a Sunday interview with Fox Sports' Ross Jones that the position won't be handed to the No. 16 overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft

    "Will we explore possible veteran free agents or draft picks out there? Absolutely," Ryan said. "We're going to explore everything to add competition because that makes your whole team better."

      They have to explore all options and there's no reason for Ryan to commit to EJ right now, but I still think EJ ends up being named the starter for 2015.

        I don't know if you're joking or not, but I've done some research and didn't see any.

        Wouldn't you know better than most of us?

          Competition! Thank goodness.

          If EJ had some competition last year instead of getting the starting quarterback job handed to him, the Bills and EJ would be better off today.

          The competition will be between EJ, a seasoned veteran, and a rookie via the draft.

          I'm pulling for the rookie QB.

          All 3 quarterbacks will be working with a new offense.

          May the best quarterback win.

            I haven't watched a non Bills NFL game in two years, I was just hoping the CFL was still around.

            So no go on the CFL. How about a ridiculously successful college QB with a cannon of an arm, a good completion % playing in a pro style offense, started 4 years and was a team captain... but is too short or too skinny so he won't get drafted where he otherwise should?

              Flutie reincarnate? I'd take that with this team in a second.
              Remember Kevin Everett in your thoughts.

                    Or Drew Brees. Or Russell Wilson.

                    NFL scouts sometimes undervalue small guys.

                      I don't know, I'm asking all the college scouts that post here if there is one of those guys in the draft.

                        I don't see any right now?

                        Sometimes there are, but right now I just don't see it.

                          Say hello to The Sanchize again. Rex has the tat.

                          If everything works out perfectly, we might be able to trade Pegulas for Woody Johnson and the year 2010 and head to New Jersey at a discount on plane fare.

                            This is confusing, even by Mace standards.

                              Not really if you read it. It means we're trying hard to be the 2010 Jersey Jets.
