LeGOATski Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I am complaining about his picks. Actually. Go on. Let's hear it.
K D Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I like Tarpley's instincts for the position but he's just not good enough of an athlete imo. These days you have to have the size and speed as well to keep up with these physical freaks
3rdand12 Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) it been mentioned that Whaley knows Line backers on more than one occasion. I do not see it one bit. Do you? I have no dislike of Whaley because he cannot draft an O lineman either. He is still miles ahead of any GM bills have had in place for years. name his success with a line backer to date. BTW i am a Preston Brown fan even after last years "slump" Edited March 16, 2016 by 3rdand12
bigK14094 Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 (edited) R Johnson has to be able to start this year....or...he shouldn't be on the team...its year 3 folks. He was a monster out of college....need to see that materialize on the field in the NFL this year. I am guessing he will get that chance this summer. Rex D is intricate...and perhaps he doesn't have the head to play the D.........anyhow, its up or out this year for him. Edited March 16, 2016 by bigK14094

BTW i am a Preston Brown fan even after last years "slump" Kiko and Brown were successes for the systems they were drafted to play in. Rookies who came in right away and contributed. If you want to blame him for injuries and coaching changes, then so be it. Name his failures with linebacker to date.

He was a 7th round pick...if he doesn't make it, that's not much of a surprise. We should be lucky if he's even a solid backup.

We should be lucky if he's even a solid backup. uggh you named two that have failed. why should I ? nothing personal brother. Kiko was a risk in college and is still questionable imo. Brown had great first season and played above his reviews as a thumper only. If you want to count Bradham, he is gone. If you want to count Lawson he has been viable smart veteran. Reddick Tarpley Powell Johnson have at best been ST contributors when not injured. And injury does count! Lets not get personal please. But what is our starting rotation and you cannot use jerry hughes lol ( maybe Dougies finest moment )
John from Riverside Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Actually AJ Tarpley was starting to show some ability at the end of the season. I feel like he needs to add some muscule though I like Tarpley's instincts for the position but he's just not good enough of an athlete imo. These days you have to have the size and speed as well to keep up with these physical freaks The said the same thing about Chris Spielman One of my all time favorite bills
BillsVet Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Back to the Jauron days it seems. Wheres John DiGiorgio when you need him? Remember how thin those teams were? They were signing guys off the street to play that week. The name Marcus Buggs for some reason hasn't escaped me. The more things change the more they remain the same.
BuffaloMatt Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Tarpley. Vomit! Need to look outside current stable of players.
YoloinOhio Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Actually AJ Tarpley was starting to show some ability at the end of the season. I feel like he needs to add some muscule though The said the same thing about Chris Spielman One of my all time favorite bills maybe the NFL offseason training program will help. We will see how he looks in OTAs.

The name Marcus Buggs for some reason hasn't escaped me. The more things change the more they remain the same. I think the Bills biggest weakness is LB. But honestly, this year could be that those guys i mentioned and we have listed will step up. But it just feels thin there after last seasons efforts and moving to a scheme that needs to supply a 3-4 look
26CornerBlitz Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Free agent departures create opportunities for these Bills on offense Buffalo did not match the New England offer sheet to Chris Hogan and Boobie Dixon and Kraig Urbik were cap casualties. Those departures will lead to enhanced opportunities for the following players on Buffalo's roster.
Blokestradamus Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 I'm going to stay moderately bullish on Randell Johnson. Long, rangy athlete that can contribute on ST. Manny has stayed effective longer than I thought he would so his chances have been limited but he's shown flashes during preseason that keep me intrigued.
26CornerBlitz Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Greg Salas: "I'm not afraid to be physical" (12:08)Bills wide receiver Greg Salas joined The John Murphy Show to talk about building off of his 2015 late season success, his career path in the league, and how his skill set will translate to help the Bills offense.

Quote BTW i am a Preston Brown fan even after last years "slump" Kiko Alonzo?
3rdand12 Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Kiko Alonzo? I was a fan. he was a risk. the risk was revealed. other knee though. Hit rookie wall and hard. what has he done lately.
John from Riverside Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 I was a fan. he was a risk. the risk was revealed. other knee though. Hit rookie wall and hard. what has he done lately. That is not the point.....Whaley found a runner up rookie D player of the year who ran into injuries...that has NOTHING to do with talent THen he found Preston Brown who had 100 tackles in his rookie season...then the team went through a scheme change Whaley IS finding the talent
