BillsWatch Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/stony-brook-michael-bamiro-ineligible-ncaa-supplemental-draft-free-agent-070813 Neither of our RTs seems to be players who could not use some competition and player who will effectively be a UDFA was graded as 5th or 6th round quality pick. With new staff I could see them taking a chance on a player who could grow with team. Might do well as 6th lineman for goal line packages.
swnybillsfan Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 very interesting story. huge and athletic is a good combination. the article said he could have been a 5th or 6th rond pick, so i assume that this kid either has a low ceiling or is very raw, either way, it couldn't hurt to send a scout to watch this kid work out. if you see something you like, make an offer.
ChevyVanMiller Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Cool story. Bills should take a good look at the kid.
BillnutinHouston Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I'll be interested to see if the Bills have any inside track here, considering that Bill Conaty is Bamiro's agent.
boyst Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 High motor? Sure! Bring'm in! When it comes to the OL it is hard to make a good team and the best OL's are not always the best OL.
BillsWatch Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 I'll be interested to see if the Bills have any inside track here, considering that Bill Conaty is Bamiro's agent. I recognized the name as someone who played for us but doubt many from that era are left.
CSBill Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Well, hopefully they at least send a scout down there Thursday.
FluffHead Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Well, hopefully they at least send a scout down there Thursday. Gil Brandt just tweeted out that Doug Whaley was in attendance today.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Gil Brandt just tweeted out that Doug Whaley was in attendance today. And Bamiro's an unrestricted free agent and the Bills have zero cap restrictions as it pertains to street free agents. Actually come to think of it, this would have been a good year for the Bills to get into a bidding war for the "CFL star of the Year." I wonder how much more it would have taken the Bills to win the Cameron Wake sweepstakes. It still burns my ass that they lost out to the Dolphins.

Malazan Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Interesting situation. It's good the Bills at least took a look at him.

Mr. WEO Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Guy would have been in college from 2008 to 2014? John Blutarski? He was never made aware of the NCAA eligability restrictions?

Nanker Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 He's a pretty raw prospect, but he signed with the Iggles.
