Should the Bills draft a QB with their first pick?

By Howard B. Owens

Not a great draft for qb's, this year. Hopefully Matt Cassle can push EJ for the starting job, I don't like either option, but hopefully the ground game will take the pressure off the passing game. Glanced at the schedule, 8-8 at best.

I've love to see them take Garrett Grayson. I'd take Grayson over Winston or Mariota, myself.

Certainly, Grayson is worth a second round pick (which is what the Bills have for their first pick).

Brett Hundley looks promising, too.

Yes, keep trying until we find our guy. The Bills are in the position of being able to pick the "best player available" they don't really have a glaring need except at QB, about half the NFL has the same issue. If a guy the brain trust of the Bills think they can work with is there in the second, grab him. If not then the 3rd and so on. But don't pass up a better player just to get a qb. As an aside, I think expecting a rookie QB to be ready in his first year is usually foolish, it amazes me how many times it is expected. Guys coming out of college ready to start in the NFL at QB are very rare. But when an Andrew Luck comes along, these high paid so-called football gurus fall all over themselves to copy his success with a less able version. Get a rookie and let him watch a veteran, even if the veteran isn't very inspiring. Maybe that worked last year for EJ Manuel and Uncle Rico (I mean Kyle Orton), maybe not. Get some insurance besides Jeff Tuel.

EJ will not win games; we don't need him to. He can't lose games, i.e. picks, fumbles.that's what is important. Our D is worthy of 10 wins
