Bills Owner Ralph Wilson Can't Stop Discussing Quarterback

While I don’t think Ralph would force them to take a qb totally against there will, I do think he will force them if they have a qb 5-10 spots lower on the big board.

Newton is worth a #3 (at least for Bufffalo). Talent might be there, but, “a fit” is not. I can’t see him playing(well) in the Ralph(or wanting to).

 I wanted a OL man in ‘10 with our #9. I’d be happy with a DL man at #3 and a QB at #34. I don’t think Gabbert will last that long, but, I could warm to the idea of Kaepernick. I’m not a fan of Ponder or Locker. Dalton, maybe, but not at #34.

When all is said and done, this is Ralph’s team and if he wants a franchise QB, I’m betting Buddy will provide him one. Fitz is by no means a franchise QB – he’s a okay starter but not the type who’ll lead you to the Super Bowl. We need a true franchise QB who can be one of the best QB’s in the league and if the front office finds Newton, Gabbert or Locker to be that, then they’ll make the pick. That being said, if the front office deem there’s no QB worthy of being picked in the top five, they need to do whatever it takes to find the most impactful player they can find, preferably on defense.

Personally, I want a franchise QB more than anything. This franchise has been plagued by mediocrity at that position for so long and the results show it: 11 years without a sniff of playoffs. It’s about time that changed and it’ll change when we get a QB who can consistently lead this team to victory and Fitz is not that guy if you ask me. He’s way too inconsistent and makes way too many erratic passes at critical moments to be that.
I like Newton a ton, especially in the scenario that he sits for a season or two behind Fitz while learning from Chan – arguably one of the best guys in the business to have train your QB.
Of course, both Gabbert and Locker have great ability, too, and I wouldn’t mind them either. I just don’t view them as top five picks. Gabbert hasn’t been productive enough in college and there are stills questions about his ability to play under center, though that’s a minor issue and the very same that Newton has to deal with. Locker is a kid whom I like a LOT; the kid’s extremely athletic, is very strong-armed, is tough as nails, played in a Pro Style offense, has all the tools you’re looking for and though he’s a relatively raw prospect, as well, he’s a kid who could blossom under a coach like Chan imo. However, his accuracy remains a legitimate issue and though it’s probably correctable, I still see more upside with Newton and I just think he’s the type of guy who’ll carry the Bills to victory Sunday after Sunday.

in january ralph said we wont reach for a qb

now he said,
we need a qb to go to playoffs

cam is very athletic but it is about intangibles. we will know more about him…

that statement in no way tells he is high on newton… only that they are researching and are still unsure…

no way anyone can say today with those statements that bills are going to draft cam newton… only that they might draft a qb in the first 3 rounds…

We have plenty of other issue than QB. Fitz was one of the few bright spots last year and I think he has a few good years to come. I’m sure there will be a QB drafted this year but McElroy could probably be had in the 5th or 6th round. He doesn’t have the typical cannon arm that everyone loves but he’s a winner and has those intangibles. All he did was go 24-3 as a starter in the SEC with a National Championship after an undefeated Senior year with a State Championship. Tom Brady wasn’t a first round pick and I don’t think we need to take a QB with our 1st or 2nd round pick, too many needs on defense.

I really just hope Ralph hasn’t turned into Al Davis, I know that’s a terrible thing to say but I really do worry about it. As far as drafting a Qb, I hope they don’t reach and I think any QB drafted in the top ten this year is a reach. It’s way to early to say it and I know that people hate the wait till next year mantality but , man I hope they find a way to draft Andrew Luck next year and not reach for one this year.

Carolina at one could take cam due to clausens ineffectiveness (not his fault). Denver could take Cam a they have said tebow maynot be the future. So he maynot even be at three. Also think of what the bills are paying for. They could be paying top dollar for a 2 yr backup based on previous cba. I am not sure if cam would stay here after 4 yrs. How about we get someone with talent who wants to be known for turning the bills around. How about we get someone who is willing to work. If they are going to sit on the bench for 2 yrs as I believe most of te QB’s in this class will why pay top dollar for it. Only Qb’s seen I like is ponder as a third or mcelroy as a 4th or 5th. Gailey is supposed to be great at making something out of nothing (I don’t believe the QB’s listed above are nothings). Ponder shows great intangibles and mcelroy and team seems to get the job done. Get someone later to wok with pay less and then compete with levi brown. If people think levi can’t play then i blame the scouting personal for not taking a kicker. At least then the kicker may have seen the field. These people train to be professionals. People taken later should have more drive to succeed. Coaches should do theirjob and coach. How about we take a person in the first that the nfl can fear when the boys line up. let’s find someone who wants to be great and become alegend for turning an organization around. Jim Kelly or bruce Smith anyone?

You gotta be kidding me. If Sanchez can take the Jets to the AFC Championship 2 years in a row there is no reason Fitz can’t if he has the O-line that the Jets have and a good defense and solid run game to back him up. Sanchez has his moments of greatness just like Fitz, but his INT numbers should be way higher if a lot of defenses (namely the Dolphins) could just hold on to the ball when they make plays on it. There is no way that Sanchez is just that much better than Fitz is, build the tools around him first, see what happens, and then need be you take a QB in like 2 years if he can’t get it done with a solid core around him like the Jets have (or if one of those once in a generation QB’s comes around, you take him). Defense at #3
