QB in RD 1

NIKEJWN · Joined: 14 Feb 2007 Posts: 2476

Will any one else be highly upset if we reach for a QB in rd 1 like I would be. Glennon has been given to the Bills all over mocks that I have read and I just dont get his hype or any QB for that matter. The only way I want to draft a QB in rd 1 would be through a trade back secenario. I feel like we will be setting our franchise up for failure if we reach for Glennon, Nassib, Wilson or any of these fringe first rd QBs and missing out on some strong talented defensive players that will be there for us at 8.

I understand the importance of finding that Franchise QB and maybe one of these guys will hit, but to me I just dont see it. All the guys coming out last year were high quality winning QBs. These guys have just been way to inconsistent to get my interest.

Glennon to me has the potential to be clearly the best QB in the the draft and be a top 15 QB. He has been inconsistent and makes throws that make you go WOW and others that are like "are you kidding?" If he can sit for a year and learn the offense and speed of the game I think he will be the franchise QB we ache for.

Wilson reminds me so much of Trent Edwards. Shows flashes, is very careful, and doesn't seem to force it down field. I would be terrified to take him.

Nassib: Russ Lande said he is the best QB in the draft, his opinion I trust but I don't see it. Obviously he has been mocked to us because of Marrone and Hackett but i wouldn't touch him until round 2, and even then i would sit him at least a year.

To answer your question, I wouldn't be mad if we drafted a QB at 8 only if it is Glennon.

I would hate the idea of getting a qb in the 1st round and starting to question on whether or not the bills should take one in the 2nd rd. This could possibly be the worst qb class in a long time. Glennon is terrible he hasnt done anything that makes me think he could step to the next level. Tyler wilson is ok nothing special and Nassib is not good the hype is out there because he was with Marone and Hackett. His accuracy isnt great and his arm strength is weak (Fitzpatrick 2.0). I rather pick up a veteran qb and draft a qb later round or wait until next year and filling the other needs the bills have.

I think either way we r going to get screwed. If glennon is there at 8 and we pass and someone like the jets take him we will get laughed at cause we didn't take him. If we wait and guys like nassib, and glennon are gone and we have to take the next best cause fitz sucks, it will b considered a reach. If we do take a qb at 8 it will b a reach, and if we don't and we miss out on our guys were laughed at. The best possible solution is to trade down and take glennon or hope nassib is there on day 2.

Ya I think we are really in a no win situation at this point. I want nothing to do with Glennon. I have watched him for the past two years as my brother went to NC State so I have a small rooting interest in that team and he just did not have the consistency I would have liked. In a really bad ACC with only two some what legit teams he couldnt muster much at all this season.

I think Glennon is worth the 8th. Jones maybe around 20 has a awesome receiver Jaz Reynolds .Dysert is fairly solid might be a better real good back up.Nassib is not worth a first period.Barkley is tough but has some issues I see.Murray has good throwing motion but might be hair light on arm strength.Wilson cant elude pressure well and questionable arm strength horrible OL. No way to Bray. Geno is wicked fast not sure about his judgement but has good td to int ratio.Need to watch more QBs

This is just my opinion, but I'd take Nassib over anyone except possibly Wilson. And I don't think those two are far apart. But I would like to see them trade down and then take their guy, get an extra 2nd rounder and use that to get one of Ertz or Eifert to give our new QB, whomever it is (for me I'd go Nassib or Wilson or Smith, whomever is still available), and then use a 2nd on a TE who can give the new QB a nice security blanket, and make Chandler more of an extra option at TE, instead of the guy, as the new NFL is showing a lot of teams like to use 2 guys in that role. And then with the other 2nd grab a guy like Chase Thomas, who is versatile enough to play 4-3 or 3-4 for Pettine's defense and grab a WR with our 3rd, as there is plenty of depth, and someone like Da'Rick Rogers or Ryan Swope or Quinton Patton will likely fall to that range.

I'm starting to warm up to EJ Manuel in round 2 if he there and he has climbed up my big board.

Geno Smith
EJ Manuel
Tyler Wilson
Ryan Nassib
Mike Glennon

Mobile QB's are becoming premiums

Found this to be a good read on Smith, Barkley, Glennon and Wilson.
