    Re: to me its a headscratcher...

    Passing on Dalton in the second is a big mistake just watch.

    Ofcourse i dont care much anymore. These crybabies crying about money on both sides yet i have to save money just to make it to one game to see a team that plays like a high school football team and not a good one at that.

    Jones will be a Junior also, so maybe SOL on him as well...but I got a feeling that he'll play well enough that it may be in his best interest to declare.

    so just what the hell are they planning?
    I don't know....maybe their plan is to not completely reach on a totally mediocre QB, like they did with Losman.

    Barely 200 with a smaller frame... his build reminds me of Graham Harrell... and he plays in a spread. That is an issue in this draft (in some minds) this year but not next year?

    Yes because if we get #1 they will more than likely trade it for a ham sandwich.

    Tyrod Taylor really? He is a huge ****ing bum, if he gets drafted by the Bills, he'll be cut within 2 years.

    Re: to me its a headscratcher...

    Newton was the only QB I really wanted. After that I wasnt too impressed. Don't think any of them are much better than Fitz...

    Give Fitz one more shot. If he peforms great. If not QB next year.

    You are so right !!!!! If there are any QB's left now they wouldn't be worth getting. They would be a repeat of the last many years. Fitz can't do it and wasn't been able to on any of several teams. But the price is right for the Bills..

    Where'd you see he was 200? I recalled he was 215>...besides 10-20 pounds is going to come naturally over the next couple of years so that's not an issue in my eyes (there was this other scrawny milquetoast named brady something)

    Sam Bradford played in the same offense as Jones..and he's doing ok in the NFL.

    A lot of guys who put up nasty numbers in the spread do so with noodle arms...Jones has a rifle, prototype height, a good head on his shoulders...

    Re: to me its a headscratcher...

    Just had a thought.

    Nix was asked today about the QB spot and he said they will look to FA and maybe an undrafted...

    Got me thinking about FA's... And a name came to me... Vince Young.

    Not my favorite move. Maybe Nix is thinking this way. Maybe he is hoping for a Vick like resurrection. Contract will be reasonable and Gailey might be able to turn him around... That's what they may be thinking, not me.

    If he comes cheap I am sure they will look at any old QB.

    If your looking for me to get hung up on the spread, cough-Gabbert-cough. Just saying that we heard that we shouldn't do it because of that this year but next year its fine?

    And I'm not worried about the weight as much as the frame...

    I just checked OU's site..he's listed at 230. That's plenty for a 6-4 frame.

    As far as saying we shouldn't get a spread guy? Who said that? Coaches?

    No, this is me bitching about the fans on this board. 230? I don't see that. Could be, but I don't see it.

    ESPN has him at 219, OU has him at 230...

    Harrell was 215... I think that may be more realistic.
