RyanC883 Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 great signing. Welcome back! Depth, rotational ability, ST player.
Jobot Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Could just be security in case the league ends up suspending Dareus
John from Riverside Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Could just be security in case the league ends up suspending Dareus The Troll door is too the left
NoSaint Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 The Troll door is too the left realistically, for the first week or two, it might be a valid role to be filled.
John from Riverside Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 realistically, for the first week or two, it might be a valid role to be filled. Oh no doubt But I am sure the bills didnt do it for just that reason - Alex Carrington is a really good scheme fit for a Ryan D. - We needed rotational DL depth regardless of the Marcel situation - Alex can play DE and DT
eball Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Nice job Doug! Welcome back AC. I'm sure Rodak will chime in soon with the comp pick update Along with all the reasons this is a risky and questionable move for a team without a proven starting QB.
Lurker Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Let's hope Alex has better luck this year: http://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/16100/2014-offseason-in-review-dt-alex-carrington
DC Tom Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 This sucks. They should be signing quarterbacks and only quarterbacks until they find the right one. I am so done with this team. Along with all the reasons this is a risky and questionable move for a team without a proven starting QB. But if the Patriots had signed him, it would be a genius move...
Chandler#81 Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 This sucks. They should be signing quarterbacks and only quarterbacks until they find the right one. I am so done with this team. It took 49 posts before this showed up? We're slipping, guys & gals..
Kelly the Dog Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 This is a very good signing but we still didn't take a crappy QB in the 6th round so it doesn't help us.
Peter Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 This is a very good signing but we still didn't take a crappy QB in the 6th round so it doesn't help us. Well done sir.
John from Riverside Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 I honestly dont even know why I considered that the bills would even draft a QB in this draft - They only had 6 picks - We brought in TWO veteran QBS - We have a QB which basically is Bryce Petty in EJ Manuel
Saxum Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Along with all the reasons this is a risky and questionable move for a team without a proven starting QB. Sounds like Rodak is poster on TSW.
billsfan1959 Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) Ohhhh yeah! I loved AC when we drafted him and always thought he had the potential to be a dominant "5 technique". This would be awesome if it happens. I think people are over estimating our d-line depth. He would be great as inside-rusher or a 5 in a 3-4 look. Do it Doug! Absolutely right. His strengths are as a 4-3 DT or 3-4 DE. He actually graded out well above average in those roles during the 2012 season and was expected to have a big year in 2013. Unfortunately, he got injured early in the year and was lost for the season. Great depth signing and someone who will probably contribute in a big way under Ryan. And, he is still somewhat young, turning 28 in June. Edited May 4, 2015 by billsfan1959
plenzmd1 Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) So free agent signings by The Bills if I recall correctly Clay Felton Carington Taylor UFA signed by other teams Spiller Searcy Am I missing anybody else? I ask as I just can not see any scenario where we are eligible for a comp pick. Edited May 4, 2015 by plenzmd1
YoloinOhio Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) So free agent signings by The Bills if I recall correctly Clay Felton Harvin Carington UFA signed by other teams Searcy Am I missing anybody else? I ask as I just can not see any scenario where we are eligible for a comp pick. Harvin wasn't a FA. He was cut. Spiller was also a UFA who was signed by another team. Edited May 4, 2015 by YoloinOhio
DC Tom Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Am I missing anybody else? I ask as I just can not see any scenario where we are eligible for a comp pick. I don't either...but you know damned well that if we were the Patriots, we would be.
KOKBILLS Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Oh wow! LOVE it... Our D-Line Depth is crazy good now...I was always a Carrington fan...probably more than most...Hope he stays healthy...
