yungmack Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I am familiar with Alonso's play & his history & I believe he's going to be a great addition. I also think he's nuts. But if you think about the type of guys who are regarded as all-time great defensive players, aren't they all nuts, vicious, borderline psychos? Their pleasure in trying to hurt guys is what makes them great though maybe not such Honest John good citizens off the field. Alonso will hit you like you're a red-haired stepchild on a rented mule.
I 90 Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I know it is a highligh video but a few things i see- I see he doesn't wear knee pads. Crazy man even without the ACL injury.
Saint Doug Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Mayock just said how he liked what the Bills have done so far. Likes the trade down likes the two WR. Alonzo is a "human wrecking ball" and the Bills really needed him because Nick Barnett is thirty two years old. So he doesn't know that Barnett got cut months ago? These are the guys we listen too, yikes. Didn't Barnett tweet he was back on the Bills on April Fools day? Was that ever cleared up?
KOKBILLS Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) Not sure if this has been mentioned in this thread or not...But Stanford HC David Shaw raved about the Bills Draft, and specifically Alonso (he also said he was a huge Robert Woods Fan) on the NFL Network's coverage today...He basically said Alonso does it all, and he's all over the field making plays constantly...He said Alonso was once of his favorite players in the Conference...This was brought up when they went around the table asking everyone who, up to that point (I think it was late in the 6th), had the best Draft...And Shaw's team was the Bills... I'm a huge David Shaw fan...So that made his comments twice as nice for me... Edited April 28, 2013 by KOKBILLS
HOUSE Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 This is my favorite player in College football. He reminds me a lot of Chris Spielman
San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I liked this guy but didn't think he had a chance making it to B/lo b/c of his off the field stuff. We never take any guys with any type of character stuff but i like it ! I just don't get the pick of the Texas WR with guys like Q. Patton & D. Rogers still out there doesn't make a lot of sense but could be why we are the Bills !!!! Feeling better T?
Tcali Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I like my linebackers a little bit crazy. I'd love to see the look on his face when someone tells him the bars don't close until 4AM here... the next isaiah robertson???????
The Helmet of Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) it sounds like he's a wild animal. while not a bad thing for his position hopefully he won't get too many personal foul penalties, with all the flags being thrown now... additionally, he could instantly be the best LB the team...

thepizzaking Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Didn't Barnett tweet he was back on the Bills on April Fools day? Was that ever cleared up? It was cleared up as an april fool's prank. I didn't really see the humor myself.

eball Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Loved a comment I read about Alonso this morning: "he made the plays Dion Jordan was supposed to make." Nice!
Justice Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Zooooo!!! That's what I want to hear from the crowd at the Ralph when Kiko makes a big play!
swnybillsfan Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 it sounds like he's a wild animal. while not a bad thing for his position hopefully he won't get too many personal foul penalties, with all the flags being thrown now... additionally, he could instantly be the best LB the team... there are times where i would absolutely take the flag and the 15. i'm not advocating headhunting, cheapshots, late hits or any of that. but i love the idea of a guy on defense playing that close to the edge, especially a linebacker. if he is running around lighting people up, i would think that would pump up his teammates and also the crowd. the ralph is amazing when it's rocking.
truth on hold Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 We've generally had good success with LBs with unusual names (Bryce Paup, Takeo Spikes). So I'm liking this pick.
Nanker Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 This is my favorite player in College football. He reminds me a lot of Chris Spielman Yes, and a bit like Urlacher though a mite smaller. Sorta like a bigger Jimmy Hasslet. We have not had an intensity at the LB position for quite a while. Bring it Zo. Bring it.
DrDawkinstein Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I hope he runs over TWO drunk Canadian women on Chippewa!
swnybillsfan Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 We need to avoid college players that drink beer . yeah, we should only be taking pot heads and meth heads and coke heads and... oh, sarcasm, my bad.
Nanker Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I hope he runs over TWO drunk Canadian women on Chippewa! Nearly spit my beer out on that one.
drunkcanadianbroad Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I hope he runs over TWO drunk Canadian women on Chippewa! I'll bring a friend. I am running out of Marshawn $$$.
