YoloinOhio Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 Noticed this yesterday too. Not sure if we should be concerned or not. Probably not. Hope not. I am kind of nervous about this. F5.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 Its definitely a little weird, but I don't think the Bills would have assigned him a number and started selling his jersey on the website if there truly were any issues. http://www.shopthebills.com/pick-5-custom-jersey-buffalo-bills-home-game-jersey.aspx
SBUffalo Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 There are 100% no issues. They wouldn't draft him and then have an issue a few days later. Even if there were issues the website guys would still have him up there... Come on, it's nothing.
maryland-bills-fan Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Eric Wood 6-4 310 lbs could be the smallest guy on the starting offensive line. Why did they every get rid of "Tiny Tim" Levitre?
Nanker Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 I know he pulled plenty in the 2012 Bowl game vs. UCLA...Watched that game this morning...His weight was obviously down then, and he looked great...Really good...This kid has serious potential if he keeps his weight down and buys into what they want him to do strength and conditioning-wise...He could be a bulldozer-like RG...If we're looking at an O-line in the future with Glenn, Kouandjio, Woody, Richardson, and Williams...That's a lot of beef and talent up front...And if this team can blow some holes open for CJ, Freddie, and Brown...With the receivers we have now...This Offense has great potential long-term... http://youtu.be/WejXcdF-pFs
BillsDK Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 I am also excited about Cyril Richardson. Before the draft, I chose Cyril in the second round, in various draft games. I know he got pushed around by Aaron Donald at Senior Bowl, but I actually thinks that he learned from that experience. I bet it was the first time that somebody pushed him over like that.

I know he got pushed around by Aaron Donald at Senior Bowl, but I actually thinks that he learned from that experience. I bet it was the first time that somebody pushed him over like that. I have the highest hopes of the draft for Richardson and Henderson. I hope Marrone really does know how to coach up o-linemen. Imagine a line of Glenn, Richardson,Woods,Henderson & Kouandjio. If Marrone could actually make that line work :worthy:
Fingon Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Why did they every get rid of "Tiny Tim" Levitre? From what Marrone said in his rookie mini-camp press conference, I would say that Levitre is almost the exact opposite of the type of guard they are looking for. The Bills want large, powerful run blockers while Levitre is more of a 2nd level finesse player. Andy was a phenomenal pass blocker and that's one area these big guys might not be so great in.
26CornerBlitz Posted May 23, 2014 Author Posted May 23, 2014 Cyril Richardson always moving forward As a 13-year old living in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina, Cyril Richardson began a series of moves that almost left his football career behind.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 Cyril Richardson always moving forward Impressive read. Hope to see him make it big.
machine gun kelly Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 I spoke with Gil Brandt Monday morning on the radio, and he had an interesting take. He said to me "are you asking me about the Cyril Richardson of 2012 or 2013? He said in 2012 he was amazing and one of the best Guards in College football. In 2013 he gained too much weight and his first step was slower. He stated he has since lost that weight, and expects him to perform well for the Bills. The godfather had rated him in his top 100 players in the draft so he would be a third to early 4th rounder. He meant by this comment that getting him in the 5th was a value pick. I like Gil Brandt and he knows so much about these guys coming out in the draft. So Bills fans up there, keep Cyril out of the drive thru and we may have a solid left guard that pulls well with Wood and Glenn. That is some massive beef though.
eball Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 Love reading stories like that. As fans we spout off and bash or praise players without a second thought, rarely pausing to consider their life circumstances and what they've been through to get where they are. Cyril is a guy you just want to root for.
Beerball Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 11th best lineman in the state of Texas after playing only his Sr. HS season plus 1 game as a Jr. If Marrone & Morris have an ounce of teacher in them I expect this kid to improve by leaps and bounds. He's only got 6 years of organized football under his belt (5 years at Baylor plus his Sr. year) and he missed the time when the basics are taught. Good for him that his brother was there to push him 'back' on the field.
thebandit27 Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 For those interested, he's now listed on the roster Seriously though, tremendous value pick if he stays in shape...this guy was the best guard in college football in 2012, and has the bulk and power to handle the Mo Wilkersons, Sheldon Richardsons, Vince Wilforks, Dominique Easleys, etc. that the Bills face twice per year.
GA BILLS FAN Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 Loved the Richardson pick, followed Baylor football closely this past year -- watched every game -- know this, Baylor plays the most up tempo offense in the country and despite he being a bit overweight, still held his own in that system, including their first 4 games in 100+ degree heat -- to me, this is all about getting him in top notch shape -- do that and he'll be a steal ---
Canadian Bills Fan Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 Very excited to see what this guy can do on the field. CBF

I am embarrassed to admit I was worried about this. Years of being a Bills fan takes its toll.
