Billshit! Bills Target Newton, Gabbert



Bills to draft against need?
The Buffalo News

Cam Newton isn't the only quarterback trucking off to Buffalo, who is also likely entertaining, at least, Blaine Gabbert and Christian Ponder. Chan Gailey and Buddy Nix admitted quarterback isn't the Bills' biggest need because they believe veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick is a reliable starter. But both men made it clear they have to strongly consider taking a potentially great signal caller if he's available with the third overall pick in the draft.

"If you wait until you do not have a quarterback to draft one, you're too late," Nix said. "Now our greatest need is not quarterback. It's definitely not quarterback. Invariably, if there's going to be a franchise guy there and one we deem as a guy that can go eight or 10 years, be the face of the organization and take us to the playoffs and win every year, you can't pass him up."

That right there is the kind of forward thinking I love in a football team. If you wait to draft a quarterback until you need one then it’s too late. Meanwhile, if you wait to draft a decent offensive lineman for a decade then every quarterback you put on the field will be massacred. But that’s the Buffalo Bills for ya. It’s just more Billshit and it's leaving some people speechless.
