K-9 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ah, got my fix and life is better. Astro, regarding Kyle Williams playing DE, when he lines up is he square up on the OLman or on a shoulder? Is there any difference in alignment between the 5 on 5 and 11 on 11 work? Thanks a ton, Astro. And a special thanks to Mrs. Bot for getting you to camp on time. GO BILLS!!!

bananathumb Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 This is why the local media cannot compete with TBD. Thanks Astro...no need to listen to or read the hacks. I'd also like to see your current depth chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astrobot Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 More on Gaskins RB: "scored a pair of touchdowns, made good on a two-point conversion, broke multiple tackles on a run into the secondary and showed some athleticism on a reception on a swing pass over his outside shoulder for a first down from quarterback Jeff Tuel. He also effectively picked up a blitz giving Tuel time to complete a 40-yard pass to Marcus Easley." http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-2/RB-Gaskins-showing-hes-more-than-power/7ea72661-b85d-4c4d-8bec-9566a1d5fe0c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoozeCruise Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 So Cordy Glenn was working at guard with this guy Welch at Left Tackle? Am I reading that right? I gotta get back to Pittsford. Sounds like Tuel is really showing something. May be our new Frank Reich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metzelaars_lives Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I think his battle is now for #3 or a spot on the Bills. Tuel is profiting from his absence, and throws an accurate deep ball. I started to think the same thing the other day but let's see what it looks like after 4 preseason games. I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable with 2 rookies and Brad Smith as my 3 QB's. I'm not huge on Kolb either but at least he has NFL experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
