Darick Holmes, RB. Guy was a 7th rounder and not expected to make the team, but he had a killer preseason and even had many fans calling for him to supplant Thurman as the starter. Had a good rookie year as the #2 back and gained 600 or so yards. Hit the wall in season 2 and was out of the league by 1998. Think he's in prison now. I thought he was going to be our next great running back.

Gary Anderson lost the preseason battle to Mick-Mayer intentionally. Hard to call him a preseaon all-pro. He looked terrible because Ralph wouldn't let him get a reasonable contract.

 

that seems like a reasonable rationale for removal from this list, especially his all time great type status as a player

 

 

so I will grant him that

Ellis Lankster- Didn't he return to int's for td's in a preseason game.

 

Another similar era- Justin Armor

 

Another one I left out. Fast Freddie Smith. Killer pre-season KR

Fast Freddie Smith is an AMAZING call!! He should captain this team. Wasn't his name Jonathan?

I also glanced at his wiki and discovered that he replaced van pelt against the fins. what kinda suck are we talkin' about there?

 

He was bad....3rd stringer

Carey Bender, Marv's other Coe College RB. I also remember being excited about Yonel Jourdain.

Shawne Merriman, 2 sacks and a hurry in 3 plays v. The Bears. Made it to the cover of the Bills site that night. Never to be heard from again.

Quite the team you guys have put together.

 

They could compile an excellent record in the WAC conference I'm sure.

 

We still have BIG question marks at RT and DT.

 

Apparently you're alright with the exceptional play at those positions over the years. :sick:

Two guys I thought were going to be great NFL'ers for years to come: Nate Turner (RB/FB/TE) and Corey Moore (OLB). Turner was a pre-season stud, kind of a Christian Okoye type in the early 90's...did pretty close to nothing in the regular season...Corey Moore, undersized linebacker who was one of the best college lb's of his time (Oklahoma)...but he sucked for the BIlls...got cut, spent a few weeks with the Packers (IIRC), never to be heard from again...
