If Wilson and Nassib are available with our second pick in this draft...

choose one and explain why.

I know Nassib well from living in Syracuse and being a fan. Watched a lot. Knowing his abilities and the connection with the new Bill's coaching staff it's an intriguing option.

I watched some Arkansas games and have watched a few games and all highlight tapes I could find and there seems to be something with Wilson that really perks my interest in him. He seems like he just really has it despite some of the trouble this past year with sacks and injury. I chalk some of that up to his supporting cast.

I'm almost convinced that Wilson interests me more at this point as far as potential.

I also think as we've heard three QBs could go in round one and I'd guess these are two of them along with Smith.

If these two are available in round 2, who is your pick and why?

Wilson. He's tough.

Wilson grades out as the better pro prospect so you almost have to go with him. I say almost as there some things that concern me. Specifically his struggles as a senior and struggles to win in big games. That said Nassib stats are more impressive and his familiarity with our coaching staff are valid arguements for him. Only because I have some concerns with Wilson I go with Nassib but if I was drafting for any other team besides the Bills I would take Wilson so maybe I should reverse my stance as I might be voting with my heart where usually I go with my head.

I should have said Wilson was compared to Jim Kelly...that should be reason enough shouldn't it? Actually in his highlight film he stays in the pocket late and delivers accurate passes while tacking hits. That was impressive. He got hung out to dry by his linemen often but delivered the accurate throw...unlike Fitz does. Wilson appears accurate on the run also...I hope we don't have to use our first pick on a QB so we can grab a top 2 prospect at linebacker or receiver and either trade back into the first to get the QB or get lucky in round 2.

he lost Petrino and his top 3 wr's from 2011. He had a crappy OL from what I read yet he put up decent nos. while getting beat up.

i hate to be the hand police, but if it's true his hands are the same size as mine, we got an issue. i think we need to see all these guys performin the combine now. no one has a champsionship, no one is a no brainer. the pressure is on at the combine to be worth the big money. let's see how they perform there.

nassib intrigues me because he looks like he's a tank. and being familiar with marrone means we should see less growing pains.

wilson is supposed to have more ability higher ceiling. if its true that his lackluster season was a result of the OL, the coach, and WR leaving, then you have to think about him. but i'd like to see how accruate these guys look in the combine.

People with small hands should be dentists...or better yet, proctologists!

Which makes you wonder if Petrino coached him up (see Brian Brohm). Losing the WRs does hurt but his inability to win big games also concerns me.

hard to win without someone decent calling the plays, no weapons and no one to protect you.

Why don't we watch the Indy Combine and see the skill sets of multiple QB's before narrowing our choices to 2 .

Wilson in 1 second.
Has great upside and a tough SOB....
Great arm, a leader, and knows how to deal with adversity....
I think he is the 2nd best QB in this draft

I like them both as well as ej manuel

Wilson's hand size is a definite concern. If the choice is limited to those two, I'll take my chances with Nassib.

Im a big fan of Wilson....don't think he will be there in Round 2. We will have to trade up to late 1 to get him IMO

Would rather have Wilson or Manuel over Nassib, but only in the 2nd, if we don't get Geno Smith in the 1st.

I would much rather trade back from #8 myself & get an extra pick or 2 than to lose picks to trade up.

I agree with this but only if Geno Smith is off the board when we pick.

LOL, I'm with you. My first ever root camal was from an oral surgeon who weighed like 450 lbs. and had hands like hams. He kept saying, "Wider, open wider."

Ryan Nassib: Familiar with Marrone/Hackett
Pretty athletic
Thick, sturdy build
Strong arm
Compact over the top delivery with a quick release.
Large hands
Played a lower level of competition
Deep balls tend to sail on him.

Tyler Wilson: Played in tough SEC
Good arm strength
Willing to take a hit to deliver a strike
All around accuracy
Made the best of a bad situation last season and still performed pretty well
Not as thick/sturdy
Small hands

I think Wilson is more NFL ready. I think Nassib might have the higher long term upside.

I'm curious. Why not include a couple more possible second round QBs in this comparison; Mike Glennon (who I don't particularly like), and EJ Manuel (that I do kind of like)?

I wonder how much of this would play into their decision if it came down to both qbs. I think Marrone/Hackett are confident enough to take Wilson ( if they think he's more talented ) knowing they can teach him as fast as they taught Nassib a new system in his senior season.
