Football Bills GM: 'Time is now' to trade up for a QB - Page 11

Romeo/Pioli, if you get cute and win another meaningless game, I will cut you.

Quote:

In what has become a weekly discussion of his franchise's quarterback situation, Bills GM Buddy Nix suggested Friday that he's keen on trading up to address the position in this year's draft.

"Let me say this: I think there's a time that in the era that you're in and the development of your team, there's a time when you can move up a round to take a quarterback," Nix said. "And I think the time's now for us ... We need a good, young quarterback, and we're going to do our best to get him." Nix has waffled a bit on the issue, but has essentially conceded that Ryan Fitzpatrick is not the solution.

Geno Smith is not an elite prospect. Definitely a good prospect/player though.

The Chiefs have forfeited the ability to judge an QB prospect elite or not. Their need is so great that if the player is a first round talent, he must be drafted. Its QB or bust. If the player busts then we rinse/repeat in 3 years.

Thanks for that completely subjective and well-thought analysis. You are such a waste of space.

Yep.

If the Chiefs have the #1 overall pick, and the Bills come along and want to trade up to the Chiefs slot, would you do it?

The Chiefs could possibly still get a QB with Bills pick. But just knowing that they could receive a ton from the Bills, hmmmm....something to think about.

I'm with the majority that they should draft a QB, but, I don't think that you have to go 1st overall to get one. I still think they should draft one in the 1st regardless though.

I just don't feel as if drafting a QB is going to be the answer overnight. This team needs more than just a QB, if they can still get a ton of picks and a QB then the chances of addressing the holes on this team improve far more significantly.

It's something to think about. Having the 1st overall pick is almost like a luxury in this case.

I'm sure the Rams are much happier with Bradford, Brockers, Jenkins and co. instead of RGIII.

So now the Bills want to piss on my Chocolate Painii Parade, eh?

NEVAR!!!!!!

We haven't had a top flight QB in TWENTY YEARS. We haven't had a homegrown QB EVER.

But having the 1st overall pick is "almost like a luxury".

I may have to take a break from the board because I don't think I can listen to this shit for 3 months.

RGIII is a special player.

How do we know if Geno is that good?

Is there an elite QB prospect in this draft?

There is no Luck. There rarely if ever is. That said, it's time to take the shot and Geno is the Top Man for the gig.

Nobody thought RGIII was anything special this time last year.

You never "know" anything as there is always risk with any player no matter what someone says.
