Clemson Bills Fan Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Rand Getlin @Rand_Getlin 5m5 minutes ago I'm told LB Zach Brown has signed a one-year deal with the #Bills.
DallasBillsFan1 Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 I just watched a couple highlights on this player. He looks decent enough, although I read he fell out of favor with TN coaches as he was a 2nd round pick that didn't live up to potential. For some reason I feel good about this signing because I think Buffalo can turn around a defensive player's trajectory ... ala Jerry Hughes. I hope this guy works out for Buffalo ... we need help and depth at LB.

Clemson Bills Fan Posted April 4, 2016 Author Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) I feel similar about this guy, especially since he has the physical tools. And I understand how he would have fallen out at the Titans, but I would rather grab a guy like this (or Jerry Hughes) that was drafted high because of that talent, and not worked out 100% of the time over a low round journeyman. Like you said, at the very least we improved our depth and athleticism at LB, and best case is that we could have possibly found an WLB to play besides Preston(hopefully not a starter so much as a good coverage guy). I'll take that. Edited April 4, 2016 by Clemson Bills Fan
KOKBILLS Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) What's not to like? Nice move...The Bills need LB depth desperately...261 TT's, 10 sacks and 6 INT's in basically 3 years (32 starts) is certainly not terrible... Edited April 4, 2016 by KOKBILLS

YoloinOhio Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Scouting report that Ty Dunne did on him back when he was the beat reporter in Green Bay. Sounds very athletic. http://m.jsonline.com/sports/packers/north-carolinas-zach-brown-is-an-intriguing-mix-for-packers-jq48tpq-140098423.html

YoloinOhio Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 @yardsperpass Watched a small sample of Brown... definitely a run and chase type cover guy... we shall see how Rex uses him... but speed shows on video
Best Player Available Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Just a ploy to get some more Browns on the team. Since the Williams will be dropping in numbers.
YoloinOhio Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 (edited) Can he do that to Tom Brady?he isn't fast enough to need to horse collar him to bring him down, but he should do it anyway. I wonder if ZB will get Bradham's old #. He was 55 in Tenn, but that's taken. Edited April 4, 2016 by YoloinOhio
John from Riverside Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 This signing could actually be significant We need LBs that can cover in this scheme...so now we have Lawson and Zach Brown.....so Preston Brown might actually be able to stay where he is in the scheme. I still think we take another LB early.....but pass rushers are needed
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 At the very least, it's much needed deoth. If we're lucky it's a Hughes or Incognito situation where Whaley found a score.
