Thoughts on Trent Edwards?

I personally think Edwards is a going to put up decent #s all year. I drafted him as my #2 but plan on starting him based on matchups. I say he is worthy of starting over any QB except the top 4 any week based on matchup. Just think how good his #s will be once he figures out how to use Owens and Evans.

I drafted him myself as the #2 guy behind hasselbeck. But now that Hasselbeck may miss this week I have no choice but to give the nod to Trent! Hope it pans out though and hopefully he can be a every week starter for me. I predict 280 yards 3 tds this week and add another 35 rushing yards

:wacko: If you're predicting those kinds of numbers, why the heck are you even asking the question?

He was the QB I saw outperforming his ADP more than any other. He certainly has the weapons. Having drafted him as my backup to Donovan, I certainly hope so! The one thing that could curb him is his line, but they don't seem to be playing too terribly.

From Buffalo here.

 

Trent looks to be finally putting it all together. He actually was playing this well at the beginning of last season but then he received that big hit/concussion in Arizona and was no where near the same.

 

I envision him to be solid 200-250 yards a week with 1-2 TDs. Maybe a couple 3 td games but probably not to many 300 yard performances. Bills like to run the ball a lot.

 

Injuries are also a concern to me. He has yet to make it through a full season.

 

Could be a major steal in most drafts. I know in my serious league he went in the second last round and it was in a room full of huge Bills fans.

 

All in all the future is bright in my eyes.

The Bills' linemen have played surprisingly well considering they have two rookies in the interior.

They did lose the starting right tackle for the season last game, so the line has virtually no experience. The backup RT though isn't much different than Butler anyways talent wise. The two Rooks on the interior are first and second round selections this year and are Freaking maulers.

I was surprised to see the Bills draft guards so high instead of some tackles. Clearly they were making the line a focus but didn't do anything to replace Peters. Based on the inexperience and no clear stud at tackle I didn't have much hope for them -- but so far they seem pretty good.

 

They all weigh in the 301-318 range - maybe this lighter line is what they needed for the no huddle.

In all honesty the problems with the Bills line stemmed from years of horrible Interior play. They Signed Hangartner to play center from Carolina and added Eric wood in the first and Andy Levitre in the second. Those guys are playing amazing.

 

They didn't go Tackle because they love Demetrius Bell (Son of NBA great Karl Malone BTW) who was a 7th round last year. He is in the Peters mold and very athletic. Remember Peters was an undrafted Tight End out of college. Bell is playing fine in the first 2 games. Losing Butler at RT may hurt, but only time will tell. Jonathon Scott is the new starter. He played well last week in relief but we will see after a full game.
