nucci Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Wow...everyone actually...likes...this idea? We need a dissenter and we need one fast or else The Wall will implode. What the hell are the Bills thinking?? If Seahawks are letting him go he must suck!! (How's that?)
Kelly the Dog Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Sounds like a very decent pick-up if signed. Goes along perfect with what Pettine wants to do, as with Branch on the field in the huddle, you really wouldn't know if we playing 3-4, 4-3 or 46, and also known as a run stuffer. This would be a very nice component part that didn't cost a ton.

nucci Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 It doesn't count if you are just faking it Yeah, I know . Best I could do on short notice.
The Big Cat Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Wow...everyone actually...likes...this idea? We need a dissenter and we need one fast or else The Wall will implode. Great, a guy whose team didn't think enough of him to keep him even after their defense finished 27, 28,15, 30 during his time there... PASS

Green Lightning Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Looks to me like the FA isn't saying Troup maybe done, they are saying Kyle maybe done. Good pick up if they can pull it off.
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 This guy has done more in any one year than tropup has done in his career. A no brainer.....
KeisterHollow Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Like it! I imagine Lawson/Andeson/Rookie? next to Kyle Williams, with Branch in the middle, next to Dareus, and then Mario - an astoundingly solid 5 man front, with two linebackers behind, which would immediately turn to Kyle, Branch, Dareus 3-4 look, with the ends kicking out to OLB - now, imagine someone like Dion Jordan, Ansah, Werner, or Hunt in the Lawson/Anderson role - that would be even better! With this signing, if it happens, we're that much closer to giving Pettine a managable roster - all that would remain to be addressed is an ILB and maybe that dynamic OLB and Pettine would have enough players to field a very competitive defense. I'm really beginning to warm up to the idea of solidifying this defense, getting a good LG (or LT and pushing Glenn to LG), and playing old-school, smash mouth, run-the-ball, control the clock football, with our great backs - that kind of ball could really keep us in games, and if we end up with a promising rookie QB and what is sure to be a bunch of rookie WR's, it would really take the pressure off of them, while also giving them a season to blossom, and we can go into next season with a much better understanding of what we need, offensively. He's a good piece to start with!

Best Player Available Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Wow...everyone actually...likes...this idea? We need a dissenter and we need one fast or else The Wall will implode. Well, I don't like his name, and why can't why just call him Al?
BUFFALOTONE Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Looks to me like the FA isn't saying Troup maybe done, they are saying Kyle maybe done. Good pick up if they can pull it off. Please explain how you come to this conclusion?
Nanker Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) Hate it. He's only coming so he can get a free dinner at Tempo and then leave after wiping his azz with the offer sheet Nix hands him tomorrow morning. He's going to make us the laughingstock of the League, I tell you. THE LAUGHINGSTOCK OF THE LEAGUE!!! Edited April 2, 2013 by Nanker
Dorkington Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 In a vacuum, I like. But we have other needs that are more important. I guess we need to get who we can get, though.
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Is he a nose tackle or more of a 3-4 DE as BADOL suggests? Can anyone clarify? If he's not a fit at the nose it seems strange to me, considering Dareus and Carrington are here already. It's never bad to add depth but we have other positions where there's absolutely nobody.
nucci Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 In a vacuum, I like. But we have other needs that are more important. I guess we need to get who we can get, though. Agree we have other needs but a run stopping DT would be nice to have since we rank near the bottom in rush yards against annually.
Green Lightning Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 Please explain how you come to this conclusion? There doesn't seem to be a place for KW in a 3-4 (I know, it's gonna be a hybid) KW really can't play a 5 technique, he's not a DE. He's not a NT. (Yeah I know Ratliff, penetrating NT,) It's true any DT that can penetrate and create mayhem will fit anywhere on any D -- but KW was not good last year and has another achilles procedure and/or rehab to go. He's not the same guy. His game was explosive off the line -- always motoring and penetrating. Exploding off the line with two damaged achilles tendons is asking a lot. The FO is hedging their bets on KW. That's my take.
