Couple of things. Obviously id like to reset with a new QB. That said, keep both because of perception plus I don't think Canales is that bad if he has his players and can run what he wants. "That's a big if" The scouting consensus with the scouts and front office will be the same no matter what happens between now and the draft. Hard to completely reset a full scouting department that fast. Also don't trust Tepper and his wife to make a solid decision if it smack them in the face and bit them on the ass.

I know we know, well most of us know. lol

I'd have to go back and watch the 22, but he's always had a tendency to drift early in his drop back plus he misses line reads like crazy.

The thing is... He wasn't a great processor in college. He relied on wide open players and being off schedule to look good. He constantly missed line reads that lead to him taking a sack or having to go off schedule. Then he had happy feet which made the line reads and always being off schedule even worse. I literally just don't get why he was so highly ranked. It baffles my mind.

They didn't trade him because he was the best receiver. They traded him because he was crutch presnap and your QB needs to be reading the line and coverages and understand what he's seeing and not rely on a wr to make calls and changes at the line.

Now that the 71 is confirmed...that's just plain asinine on every level. It's absolutely inconceivable.

They still trying to protect them saying Bryce was a can't miss prospect who would immediately become a Solid NFL starter as a rookie.

They got rid of Thielen on purpose to see what they had in Bryce. No more Thielen lining up the offense and being a crutch for Bryce on reads. They absolutely need to know if Bryce is the guy or not, they'll find out what I've been saying since before the 2023 draft now.

Young with a 71.... Uhhhh.... What? He made 5 either completely boneheaded plays / really poor decisions and they gave him a 71... Wtaf.

29+13.5 in roll over is 42.5m. They already have 266m of 295 spent for 2026 with 38 players on the roster. Hence the 29m in cap space I listed above, count the roll over and you get 42.5m in space. Minus Moton at 18-20m and you get 22-24m in cap space. They are going to move on from Bryce, Corbett and Wonnum. That gives them 39m and 35 roster spots taken of 51. Add 8 rookies at 12m salary. You've got 43 roster spots filled and 27m in cap space. On top of all that, Moton will help solidify the line for a new rookie QB next season.

Canales is what he's from and that's old school Pete Carroll football. Not gonna change and he needs a big armed QB to run his system.

They have 13.5m in cap space left while spending 269m because of roll over from 2024. (2025 cap ceiling is 275m) They have around 22-24m in 2026 counting Motons contract and can save 17m cutting Young, Corbett and Wonnum. "This is with a cap ceiling of 295m"

Yes he fixed it. Look at Josh's throwing motion when he got drafted. I mean they showed it during the game last night and how bad it was. Wasn't just Dorsey, they used a full team to work on his kinetics

Teams have to spend 90% of the cap over a 4-5 year period and a set amount each year as well.

I wouldn't be mad at another fresh start but the problem is a few fold. 1. When Canales took over the roster talent was awful. 2. The QB selection was made for him with BY already being here, but he's got leeway to move on from him but this has tied his hands for 2 seasons at little fault of his own. 3. Tepper already has a poor reputation of being a reactionary owner. So I think Canales is 100% safe, maybe not so much Morgan but I think they both stay and get a QB pick or FA pickup of their choice and then the seats heat up.

Canales is not on the hotseat as of right now. If Bryce fails, the plan is for Canales and Morgan to get a QB shot in either the draft or FA.

It's true. Most had him #1 overall or at worst the #1 QB. Only one I can think of that didn't was BR. They had him 16th overall and the third QB. PFF had him #1, NFL advisory board had him #1. Panthers and Texans both had him #1. Dunno how, never got it myself because I had him rated lower than BR did at around 18th and QB #4. I really didn't like him coming out and the reasons why (not his just size, but his processing, happy feet in the pocket and needing to be off schedule to look good) have shown up repeatedly in the NFL so far.

As for who fixed his mechanics... Well that would be Ken Dorsey... Who also worked with Cam Newton from 2013-2017.

With Josh it was about coachability, if he wasn't coachable he wouldn't be in the league right now or he'd be a backup somewhere at best. His throwing mechanics coming out of Wyoming were... Awful to say it nicely. The Bills completely revamped his throwing mechanics from the feet up over a few seasons after he was drafted. (Go look at his throwing motion from draft workouts, year 1, year 2, year 3, and then look at year 4+. His feet placement is different, his hip rotation is different, and his arm motion is different. He was literally revamped as a QB. Yes he had the physical traits but so do a ton of other QB's that are drafted with horrible throwing mechanics.

Not just going off this game, and it's not typically just one players fault...(but he was god awful in this game, saying anything else is having rose colored glasses on tight)

He's thrown over 250 yards 3 times out of 29 games started and 31 games played. His averages are as follows. 175 passing yards per game .87 passing touchdowns per game .67 int per game 17 rushing yards per game .19 rushing touchdowns per game.

I liked Richardson in the draft and still do, but he's got to sit and be on a team willing to work with him and rebuild his throwing motion from the ground up. He was always a project, just like Josh Allen was a project player. The bills suffered through him being awful throwing the ball and set up their system to protect him as best as possible while they rebuilt his throwing motion in pieces.

Bills had a 0.0017% chance to win this game when there was 4m left on the clock.

That's the thing with Josh Allen, it took a while for Buffalo to fix him and his throwing motion. If he's not coachable, he's a bust and out of the NFL in 3 years.

Also he was widely the #1 ranked prospect in that draft.
