Inside sources: Peterman is the best Bills QB in 13 years

[TigerJ]

The same 32 teams with many of the same "robust scouting departments" that let Dak Prescott go into the 4th round (5 picks before the 5th round) in 2016.

Good point, but circumstances are somewhat different. Dak Prescott did a lot of things well through the draft process, but there were questions about his ability to transition to a pro offense from a very unconventional college offense. That is a very common problem these days. Prescott also happened to go to a team with arguably the best offensive line in the league. They also, like Buffalo, have one of he best run games. That allowed Dallas to give him reasonably simple game plans. The big issue, though is the unpredictability of youngsters transitioning from college offenses that are so different from the pros. Peterman, on the other hand, came from an offense that is more like the pros than most. He slid in the draft more because of measurables than anything else. He lacks ideal size and doesn't have a great arm, though he's not terrible in either area.

Playoffs.

I thought there were rumblings that he just didn't have the arm strength.

Skooby. Telly your sources to go rewatch his performance in the Senior Bowl because he sucked.

[Skooby]

Saying he's the best QB the Bills have had over the last 13 years isn't saying much...

No it's really not but it's better than the worst QB we've had, I think.

Yes, one game makes a career I guess. How many players stunk up their big college game and went on to great careers ??

Zero games definitely don't make a career. That's how much NFL time he's seen.

The guy is a prospect with potential. If your sources want to anoint him at this point, then they are...well, let's just say they are not reliable.

Stop it.

But that's what skooby does. He anoints people that have no business being anointed. He's famous for it.

I don't know how reliable Mitch Murray's sources are or aren't. But the way I read his initial post is, that Peterman is performing at a higher level in practice than any other Bills QB they've seen in the last 13 years. Peterman being the best Bills QB in the last 13 years could be Mitch Murray's own conclusion, based on what his sources had told him. Bottom line: I wouldn't read too much into the reliability of his sources based on any of this.

I heard on WGR he looked like a rookie out there during OTA's. Needs a lot of work.

Carucci said the same thing.

...Peterman will make a push for the No. 2 spot and did work from a pro-style scheme at the University of Pittsburgh, but he looked very much like a rookie during offseason sessions.

Ditto for Jones, who lost whatever support he had after the firing of General Manager Doug Whaley and seemed to practice as if he knows he is a goner.

yeah, well..sorry for quoting someone who's been covering the Bills forever and has actually been at the OTAs.

[Goobylal]

I heard he looked good but lacked arm strength. Fine. Shoot him up with HGH like the Cheaters did with Tommy Boy. Arm strength can be improved (to a degree) but accuracy and instincts cannot.

How do you know where I've been ?? Do all of you just assume that I sit in FL all year ?

In very wide 6 person seats.

What does a Vic Carucci quote have to do with where you've been?

I liked Peterman coming out so I can only hope he pans out. Coaching matters

Inside sources: Peterman is the best Bills QB in 1-3 years.

If they don't believe in Tyrod.

[Night Train]

Why not let him hit the field and actually show something.

I liked the pick long term...since it only was a late 5th rounder with no real gamble.. but Taylor would have to have a major injury this year for someone else to see the field.

Bills had an opportunity to let Taylor walk and kept him for year 1 of an entire new regime.
