No matter how good our QB plays next year, grab a QB

[Cali512]

Next years draft is to good to pass on. Allen reminds me of rivers while Darnolds fundamentals, accuracy and velocity are off the charts. Even that Washington QB looks amazing, just with his ball placement. Baker seems pretty solid as well even though he has a sanchezness about him. We have 2 firsts to work with and even if Tyrod plays great, I still think we need to take advantage of this draft even if the player we take sits 3-4 years

Agree.
The only option I see that we need not do it is if Peterman starts and plays on a Pro Bowl level.
In all other scenarios I would trade up for a QB. Or if there are enough fine QBs available and we have a high enough pick, then stay and pick one.

Russ Brandon will see to it.

Even if he does, draft the QB. We will get reimbursed eventually. Think about it, say we draft a QB with a top 20 pick. We keep him on the bench for 3-4 year games, maybe has some elite preseason games. Once a bad rookie class comes in, their team will be desperate and I guarantee we can get that first back. I feel like its win win

Next year's QB class is going to look pretty different at that point, from what it looks like now.

If Peterman somehow gets in, and doesn't let go, you don't draft another QB. You keep a veteran as a backup (Yates type).

Now, this is a gigantic "If", and it's the Bills, so I doubt it will happen.

That does not sound great. So we are basically traing our first round pick for a first round pick 4 years later. And get a backup for the that?

It's an insurance policy. It allows us to have our QB prove for 2-3 years he is the answer, if he is then we get reimbursed

The difference this year is these QB play in pro style offenses and make multiple reads

Re: No matter how good our QB plays next year, grab a QB

Pick a QB every year... Doesn't matter the round until we have our guy. Silly to hold onto "upside" while missing playoffs year in year out.

So let's say the end of the year, garbage time since I see the Bills being out of the playoffs in August... Peterman plays okay and shows a potential "something"... It's still "potential".

Draft a kid, even a highish pick (round 2 or 3 even). What is the harm in that?

I wanted to take Mahomes..but that's just me.

We'll see how he works out.

To be honest there is very little signs that he will be a great QB. His only good trait is how he plays the game and an above average arm. He has horrible fundamentals, makes very bad decisions, most of his good plays are to wide open WRs, he throws across the field into coverage a lot. There is a lot that reminds me of manziel in how he plays

Mr. Peterman is taking care of business.

I wouldn't hold my breathe on him being dak. Most people talk about his Clemson game but it wasn't far of from when Colt Mccoy beat the pats. He really didn't do a lot. Most of his tds were thanks to his WRs. Tyrod still I by far our best QB

He very well may bust..but I'll say this.

Andy Reid, who was there with Brett Favre and helped draft Donovan Mcnabb and John Dorsey, who helped draft Aaron Rodgers, thought enough of him to give up next year's no. 1.

They moved up high enough to jump in front of NO, where future HOF'er Drew Brees made Sean Payton's career. NO wanted him as Brees' successor;
The Giants supposedly wanted him as Eli Manning's successor.
The Texans supposedly wanted him.

The common demoninator (except for the Texans)...the people running the teams that wanted him have acquired, drafted, worked with some pretty good QB's.

SB winners
HOF'ers
future HOF'ers
Fringe HOF'ers.

Of the teams passing him over..

Cleveland..who hasn't had a franchise QB since they came into existence in 1999;
SF- outside of a year or 2 of Kap...no QB since Steve Young;
Jets - haven't drafted a franchise QB since..Namath;
Buffalo- hasn't had a franchise QB since Kelly..and we drafted a ...cornerback...again.

the front office people of some teams are a little better at recognising QB talent than others.

We're not one of those teams.

So tbh, I'll put a little more stock into the opinion of a John Dorsey than someone from Buffalo.

But then, this is a team that passed over Drew Brees for Nate Clements (who went 10 spots after). In a do-over...most Bills fans would STILL take Clements, I think.
