Losman likely to remain a Bill

[Sabres244]

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Quarterback J.P. Losman doesn't appear to be going anywhere despite his request that the Buffalo Bills trade him.

"J.P.'s on this roster and he's a part of this organization. And we anticipate J.P.'s going to be on this team," Bills chief operating officer Russ Brandon said during the team's annual pre-draft luncheon Wednesday.

"He's here and that's how we're approaching it," Brandon added.

Losman has one year left on his contract but wants out of Buffalo after losing the starting job to rookie third-round pick Trent Edwards last season. It was the second time in three years Losman lost the No. 1 job. Veteran journeyman Kelly Holcomb beat him out midway through the 2005 season.

wise up Russ.

There's no other choice; the Bills have forced themselves to retain Losman by ignoring the veteran backups who were on the market in early March. As I said a few days ago, Losman > a late-round rookie or, say, Daunte Culpepper.

I don't even think that it's that they have "no other choice". This was their plan all along.

Your right. I was hoping they would have grabbed Trent Green but oh well. At this point you have to keep Losman. Not only because of his experience but if Trent goes down he knows the offense.

I thought he knew the offense last season? I'm not banking on this with him, he doesn't have the football smarts. Deep ball or nothing with him.

Hahaha good point. He does have a little bit of football down syndrome when it comes to the mental make up of the game.

Good play by the Bills front office --- come out and say they are content with keeping Losman on the roster so teams don't try to lowball them on possible draft day trades. If the organization openly whored JPL around, it would dilute his value. This way, BLO is holding the key, not the other teams.

in order, QBs I would take over JP when we trade JP for a draft pick...

Ryan Fitzpatrick...

Dilfer,

Rattay...

Jamie Martin...

whomever the odd man out in TB (Jeff Garcia, Brian Griese, Luke McCown, Bruce Gradkowski?)...

if Simms spleen is ok, check him out if he gets cut...

whomever the 49ers cut... (Alex Smith, Shaun Hill, J.T. O'Sullivan, Drew Olson)

Culpepper sucks donkey balls.

Aren't you on record as saying you think JP fills the backup role very well?

in advance of the war that's about to take place.

I like JP as a back up. He is capable to come into a game and possibly win it for us. He will never be able to play a full season as a starter though.
