How about worst QB ever?
We have a poll for the best Bills QB ever, which to me begs the question of who the worst ever was. I'll list some candidates (and I'm sure there's a lot I'm missing):
Johnny Green
Warren Rabb
Dan Darraugh
James Harris
Gary Marangi
Bruce Matheson
Joe Dufek
Vince Ferragamo
Rob Johnson
JP Losman
Trent Edwards
Gale Gilbert
For me it was James Harris. An absolute gun for an arm but had absolutely noclue how to play QB.
I punt well
I think I should feel fortunate to actually know only three of these players.

Owen Schmitt (FB, Oakland)
Ramses Barden (WR, New York)
Brandon Moore (OG, New York)

Karlos Dansby (ILB, Miami)
2014 Wishful Thinking Draft:
1) Tight End (TE, Tight End State University)

James Harris was actually pretty good, he doesn't belong on this list.

Where's Ryan Pickspatrick?
Same old Bills
Billy Joe Hobert. The only Bills QB to admit to not preparing for a game.

Darraugh-not good-really not good.

That's your choice fine, but I will tell you there's no way he is worse than guys like Dufek and Harris and a host of others were.

Belongs nowhere near the discussion of worst. Literally nowhere.

Hard Case
I was going to ask the same ? but I guess it's a bias poll or the OP feels he since his career hasn't ended "yet" he doesn't make the list.
since that's the case and I'm willing to give him this year, which should be his last if no signs of improvement, then I would of gone with RJ as I can't get that image of him running around with his shoe off and sock dangling from his foot but, I have to go with JP Losman. I then thought I would do some research and lo-and-behold who do you think made the top 50 worst in the nfl..
16. JP Losman
Years: 2004-2010
Team(s): Buffalo Bills, Oakland Raiders, Seattle Seahawks
Drafted: 1st round, 22nd overall (2004)
Career Games Started: 33
Sometimes you have to look at how these quarterbacks played in college and wonder what exactly NFL general managers are thinking. Granted, Losman passed for a ton of yards at Tulane, but we're guessing Justin Bieber might be able to put up some gaudy numbers playing against Rice. Losman was injured for most of his 2004 rookie season in Buffalo with a broken leg, and was benched during the 5th game the next year. He had a decent campaign in 2006, so of course the Bills drafted another crappy QB (Trent Edwards) to back him up. Edwards would replace the injured Losman the next season and keep the job; Losman would eventually land in—you guessed it—Oakland.

Vince and Mathison were abysmal in 85 so they get my vote.
I don't remember Harris playing for us but when he was with the Rams he was the guy people used to justify the opinion that black guys can't play QB. Supposedly black guys didn't have the composure to be successful and people pointed to how antsy Harris was in the pocket. Wasn't fair to put that on one guy but that's how it was.
Bills fan since '82
I am saying JP Losman and its really close between him and Rob Johnson but the thought of Losman always being in the fetal position has bad memories.
2013 The year of the Buffalo!!!!

A Child of the 90's
Billy Joe Hobert in 1997. Admitted he didn't know the playbook. That level of simply not caring makes him the worst QB to ever put on a Bills uniform.
A Child of the 90's
While Johnson and Losman were both terrible. Johnson has a much better team around him. If that counts for anything I would rank Losman a tad above Johnson.
T. Edwards= A. Luck '11
Billy Joe Hobert, but he was a back up, so I have to choose Trent Edwards. The biggest chicken **** of a player I have ever seen. Made me not want to watch the Bills with him there. I got pure joy when he was with the Jags and I flipped onto ESPN to see him throw a pick 6 for on one of his first few throws.
Trent Edwards career summed up on 1 play
Against the Saints on 9-27-09
It was in the 4th quarter and we are trailing 20 to 7 with 2:26 left in the game. It was a 4th and 23 ball on our 14th yard line. The game is on the line and Trent checks down to Jackson coming out of the backfield 4 yards behind the line of scrimmage. The game is on the line and he throws a check down on 4th and 23???!!!!!!! This sums him up in one play.

You bring up so many bad memories on that list. While Johnson, JP and TE were bad they are not the worst on that list. IMO Darraugh.

Bills fan forever!!

That one year with Alex Vanpelt was pretty bad.
