Free agent Vince Young will work out for the Bills on Wednesday.
We've been projecting Buffalo as a likely landing spot for V.Y. since the start of free agency. Coach Chan Gailey has an extensive history of maximizing the production of scrambling QBs with questionable passing skills. While Ryan Fitzpatrick is entrenched as the starter, Young would be the favorite to beat out Tyler Thigpen for the top backup job. May 1 - 1:03 PM

at this point I'm sure VY will listen to anyone who will talk to him, and I doubt Miami is on that list after bringing in Tannehill, then again I wouldn't have guessed Buffalo would be on that list with Fitzpatrick as a fairly established starter

He can be a factor, he has the Tebow effect. He wins, thru out his career thats what hes done. Only problem is his mental state of understanding nothing is going to be given to him. Hes not suicidal, hes just immature. A big flag for NFL teams.

Per Rotoworld.com:

Bills signed QB Vince Young to a one-year, $2 million contract.
Young was terrible in seven spot appearances (three starts) with the Eagles last season, posting a 4:9 touchdown-to-interception ratio in a West Coast offense for which he's a poor fit. The Bills will hope a humbled Young can upgrade on pricey incumbent backup Tyler Thigpen. Since Young has superior talent to Thigpen, we'd expect the former No. 3 overall pick in the draft to win the job in training camp. Young has enough playmaking ability to enter the fantasy radar if starter Ryan Fitzpatrick goes down. May 11 - 1:00 PM

dutchff7  : (21 May 2013 - 01:53 PM) A way better business move
BenJarvus Gr...  : (21 May 2013 - 01:55 PM) Miami shot their wad when their stadium renovation plans fell through lol

BenJarvus Gr...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:02 PM) obviously Ricky lol
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:07 PM) I don't know when the stadium is being built or done by lol :shrug:

BenJarvus Gr...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:11 PM) they'd never have a SB at that shit shack in Candlestick lol
BenJarvus Gr...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:12 PM) have some sense here, Ricky lol
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:13 PM) I figured it was either going to be the first year of the new stadium or last year of Candlestick as a sort of sendoff
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:13 PM) Never been to Candlestick so I can't comment on how shitty it is lol
BenJarvus Gr...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:13 PM) Ricky... stahp

JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:15 PM) I honestly don't know much about how good or bad most stadiums are other than a select few lol
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:16 PM) if they're about to replace a stadium, its probably not that good
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:16 PM) notable exception: Ralph Wilson Stadium
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:16 PM) ooh vinnie del negro is fired
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:17 PM) The Vet in Philly was amazing though :troll:
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:19 PM) Doesn't matter who comes to coach the Clippers they blow.
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:20 PM) i disagree completely
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:21 PM) i think a real coach could turn blake griffin into a superstar
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:21 PM) No one is turning Blake Griffin into a superstar lol
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:21 PM) He's a highlight reel that's it
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:22 PM) I wouldn't say hes close to the being a great PF but Griffin is already a superstar.
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:22 PM) Players who aren't super stars don't get commercials built off them.
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:22 PM) Is it deserved? No. And he's not a great PF and he's pretty overrated. But he is a Super Star.
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:23 PM) superstar is fame, not skill.
JetsFan4Life  : (21 May 2013 - 02:25 PM) That's celebrity to me
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:26 PM) You're short Ricky, no one cares about your opinion. Be quiet while the grown ups talk. :yep:
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:26 PM) i disagree, great coaches can make talent a lot better
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:27 PM) and vinnie del negro isnt a great coach
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:27 PM) VDN is terrible
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:27 PM) joke of a head coach.
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:28 PM) exactly
blotsfan  : (21 May 2013 - 02:28 PM) which is why i think its ridiculous to think that he was able to get 100% out of Griffin
CampinWithGo...  : (21 May 2013 - 02:29 PM) If you don't already, follow @haralabob on twitter. He knows basketball better than you or I or anyone we know.
BLUE  : (21 May 2013 - 02:48 PM) He's a professional gambler and used to be a professional poker player.
