Just get rid of him

5 sacks a year for our “pass rush specialist” is a joke

If it does screw it. No reason to pull an RGIII trade. Then we sign a QB and draft. I hope its that simple to them and they aren't bound and determined to get there.

If we “sold the farm” and traded up for a QB...
as long as he becomes a “Franchise” guy,
then I’d be ok with whatever we gave up

Well i can’t argue that...
except to say that I’m not choosing my backup QB based on those parameters

If Foles was a free agent... ok
But I’d rather use those picks to fill holes

- jdfitz77



We just got a 3rd for tyrod.
5th for darius
2nd for watkins.

We can trade and not miss the picks for a shot at foles.

I like Keenam for free too

Using those picks to fill holes & to create depth could really help us too though

I just don’t wanna trade picks for Foles

Because he just won the Super Bowl. Not that it should matter, but it does.

The FA class has mid tier guys, I think you're going to want to pay to go up and get your QB for the next decade.

I think foles is better then the free agent qb options.

He just won the Superbowl and was mvp

Drafting a top 6 qb is going to take a lot of starters away from this team at the draft.

Why not build a team , then trade futures for qb if needed

34 you are spot on.

How could winning the Superbowl 2 months ago not matter?

I wonder if Beane can find a taker for Bogo and Okposo while he's at it.

Because that is the most important position on the field when you look historically. Most, in terms of quality, are drafted very high.

Within the past couple of years also, the young just seem prepared to play WAY earlier, plus you get your QB cost controlled for four years and you have option in FA that are WAY easier to fill than QB.

We have been (frank)ing around with this for the last decade the only thing we haven't done is draft a franchise quarterback maybe that's the problem

Whole body of work brother, you have to take a look at the entire body of work. That's what has me on the fence.

In all seriousness I'm pumped that it looks like we found a great young smart gm. Tpegs hit on this hire.

Makes me continue to believe pegula will/ has got it right with the sabres too

That's my concern with these guys. Remember when there was a rule? You NEVER trade for a PHilly QB under Reid, that never worked out well.

Now the coaching tree is branching out and Minnesota and Philly are having success with throw away QB's.

DON'T. BUY. THE. HYPE.

DRAFT.

Circumstance

He couldn't possibly have gotten better either right?

He also found a Browns team willing to make the move, I want no part of Foles. The Eagles didn't want him the 1st time around and he didn't play well with the Rams or the Chiefs either. He's a product of how good he Eagles are.

Draft a qb every year.

But giving up 6 picks to move to the top couple isn't what the bills need right now

Why does 3 good games matter more than the last 3 years?
