buffaloboyinATL Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) He is #8 8. Cordy Glenn, OL, Bills: Glenn's the hot name to take over at left tackle for the Bills, and this could be big news for not just the Eagles (who will obviously sign him as a free agent and/or trade for him in five years) but also Ryan Fitzpatrick. Glenn could fortify protection for a quarterback who looked like a Pro Bowler before injury -- or a new contract, you pick -- derailed his season. And while folks might be inclined to chuckle at the Buffalo offense, this is a potentially dangerous unit. Fitzgerald, when healthy, can obviously play. Stevie Johnson is clearly dangerous. And the tandem of Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller is dynamic. Add in a surprising second-round value in Glenn, and it could really help Buffalo meld together for a wild-card run in the AFC. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/blog/eye-on-football/19424114/top-impact-rookies-for-2012-nfl-season Edited June 26, 2012 by buffaloboyinATL

shoretalk Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 A great pic by the Bills and Buddy worked the media planting the idea he could only play guard. From all of the OTA and mini-camp reports plus his college video this kid is going to be very solid at LT for years to come (Didn't laugh at the sidebar comment in the story about Philadelphia ... we only send them our undrafted LT's). This year's draft combined with last year's has created a very solid team of young players. I really can't think of any team with as much potential success as the Bills last two drafts appear to have given us.
UConn James Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) If Glenn can come in and be even half the rookie that Wood or Levitre were, it'll be a major upgrade at LT. Edited June 26, 2012 by UConn James
JStranger76 Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 From his college tape, he reminds me of another Glenn, Tarik Glenn, who protected Peyton in many of his best years. He should be a very solid player who is actually built perfectly for late season games in Buffalo. Loved this pick!
Joe Miner Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 Fitzgerald reference. Link? Not to defend stupidity too much, but a sports writer could conceivably have Fitzgerald as an auto correct, since there are popular athletes named Fitzgerald. Then when they butcher the spelling of Fitzpatrick badly enough, the computer auto corrects it and neither they nor the editor notice.

Doc Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 Does anyone get the Chandler Jones love (outside of the fact that he's from Rochester)? I sure don't.

bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted June 26, 2012 Posted June 26, 2012 The Eagles are welcome to our garbage. PTR I don't expect Glenn to be garbage
