Did you that the 1996 NFL draft is the most recent draft where a quaterback wasn't selected in the first round, buffalo reaching for EJ kept the streak alive.
Congratulations Bills! There may be some EJ doubters now however those that do now will soon forget all about that once they get to know EJ.. He is by far the best QB to ever come out of FSU, Ward, Kannel, Wienke, Ponder, etc..EJ has more talent and is a born leader. He is a class act that will represent the city of Buffalo and the Bills organization for years to come on and off the field. Bills scored big time!
What people don't realize, he might not be the best QB in the Draft. But he has the MOST POTENTIAL OF any QB in the draft, which is why he got drafted so high.Some Players like Ziggy Ansah and Jason Pierre Paul, got drafted based on potential.
He definitely has more raw talent than JP Losman and Trent Edwards combined. I knew Brandon and Nix were serious about winning and were out from underneath Ralph Wilson's thumb when they brought EJ on board. May be a few years before they fill the rest of the holes but now I know they are serious, I was ready to throw in the towel if they went with Nassib/Geno or made a non- QB first pick. Fan from the OJ Simpson days BTW. Go Bills!
U know there hasn't been a reciever or tight end drafted from fsu since 07 shows he had no one to throw to a lot of good play his timing with your receivers I've seen ej make all the throws I've seen there recievers drop many open passes. EJ might be a project but what qb drafted isn't a project russel Wilson was a project. He has great upside he will be a great leader
Mike Johnson, you must not watch fsu football. Ej had rodney smith, kenny shaw and nick oleary who is one of the best tight ends in college ball. Not to mention chris and lonnie out of the backfield who both can catch the ball
Hey mike johnson they had some of the top recievers in the top picks in recievers like KELVIN BEMJAMIN 6,6 256 HAD OVER 200 IN ONE GAME so dont talk about recievers
too bad the eagles were gonna snag him the second cause they picked before us we snagged the guy we wanted he is a project but will work in the long run
So frustrating that EJ was a bust. He has the arm, he has the size, he has the athleticism, he has the smarts, he has the charisma to be a franchise QB. He just never had the accuracy and he got sacked/strip sacked too often - he lacked the mental 2-3 second clock to get rid of the ball and he lacked leadership skills - those are things no matter how much you practice at, you just can never progress at. EJ regressed every season.
Watching 2 guys watching a tv, on a tv show, that's on someones laptop, that i'm watching on my laptop.
Will be interesting if Carr goes down and what Chucky does with EJ now
best QB prospect in the draft.
Thanks for putting this up. I think I like this kid more after watching it. Good luck in the draft tomorrow EJ.
I love EJ's confidence, i hope it translates when he's ready to play.
Welcome to buffalo, GO BILLS

Class act...

Gruden "why the hell aren't you the first pick in the draft" lol
Bills!
too bad the eagles were gonna snag him the second cause they picked before us we snagged the guy we wanted he is a project but will work in the long run
An why does gruden do this gruden had not had a qb since Gannon the reason he stopped coaching is cause he couldn't find a qb
Bowling class?
Dude threw 68% higher than Christian Ponder in the same offense
Secure that ball... and 26 picks!!!!????.. I like this guy though...
Jon Gruden a.k.a. CHUCKY GRUDEN.
im sorry, i love EJ and can't wait to see him play on Sundays, but you have lost all credibility saying he is the best QB to EVER come out of FSU!
you really don't know that
Finally we have a qb lol
Bills could've waited till round 3 to pick him up.
i think he may be a sleeper...watch out
those are the worst sleaves ive ever seen! lol this guy is gonna be a stud! Lets go bills!
da bears
Geno is better we will regret this

it was not his job to find a QB
here we are, December 20th, 2014, and EJ sucks. Cocky, bad accuracy, bad reads, bad ball security, and injury prone.
a career backup. That is if anyone even wants him as a backup.
