Just because another two-bit, know-nothing billsfan has the same delusional take as you, doesn't make it right.

The good players you refused to pay would have been cheaper to keep than the money you'll have thrown out there to get mediocre players to even consider the Bills. These atrocious personnel decisions leave doubt and eliminate front office trust. Money is all that will be heard. Your organization will muddle around with a free agency swinging door while trying to find a QB to mask the glaring issues. This will lag on for a while as you attempt to hit on draft picks. But you already know this because the Bills have been doing it since 2005.

You should go back and review our history the last five years before sticking with your argument and being quite hypocritical in YOUR condescending tone. The Jags did some things right, but ours certainly isn't the model to follow. In any case, I know it may seem foreign to you, but fans of other teams can be fans of the NFL in general and be knowledgeable of other players and operations. Demanding your opinion is the only one that matters without even considering our perspective, especially what personnel hell we've been through, is quite frankly you being a jerk!

Hypocritical, Armchair, all mighty, entitled, childish, holier than thou, jerk... And I wondered why folks were starting to ignore you! Hard to have a quality discussion as you say, when your posts are overflowing with such descriptives and you demand that your opinions are the only one that matters because we are 1,037.6 miles away. If all else fails, attempt to use post counts and rep points as a quality control indicator! LOL

Just for posterity I live 5 hours from Buffalo and have seen the majority of their games for the past few years.

Excellent, then I imagine you've seen the difference between the 'eye test' and stats. Both you and I can go and cherry pick stats that stand on either side of the fence. As far as this season is concerned I like Taylor displaying more of a willingness to throw the ball and take chances as witnessed in the 2nd half last week. That said, there were still some terrible misses and its just due to gunslinging not being his game. I cant fault him in that - its just not part of his skill set. I CAN fault him for not even trying. I believe that is where the teams and fans frustrations come into play. I'd rather see a 30 yrd pass picked on 3rd and 11 rather than a 3 yrd checkdown to the backup running back. ANYWHO, even though they are going to trot him back out there it seems its more they dont wanna get the kid killed. I'd imagine Taylor gets KC and NE - then back to Peterman time. Then what to do with Taylor? if they cut him before the league year they save 9 Mill and change on the cap. If they trade him, they save 10 mill and change BUT I'd imagine that would come AFTER his 6 mill roster bonus that id imagine a team would want buffalo to pay. Do you pay 6 millon for 1 mill of extra cap room? I cant imagine its important enough to get your owner to pay up. 
So, lets say JAX would like Taylors services. Do they go the route of (maybe just a more proficient version of what is being asked of Bortles) game manager and let the D dictate games? Or do you guys want them to look elsewhere for a QB with a little more explosiveness with his passing ? Difference being with taylor, if your D gives up 14 - You want Taylor to get you 17. With someone else if the D gives up 14, the dynamic of the O changes and you could have 30+. I think you take more chances with the 2nd option - but if you take the 1st itd be very similar to Buffalos approach on O the past 2 years but with a much better D. Stay in it and squeek it out at the end. Makes for some kinda boring football but a win is a win.
