Saxum Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/08/31/report-bills-claim-patrick-lewis/ The Bills have claimed center Patrick Lewis via waivers. The Seahawks waived Lewis Tuesday. He started nine games at center last season but this summer had fallen to second on the depth chart behind Justin Britt. With the Bills, Lewis will presumably compete with Fernando Velasco for the backup center job behind Eric Wood. http://nfltraderumors.co/bills-claim-ol-patrick-lewis-off-waivers-seahawks/ Lewis, 25, originally signed on with the Packers as an undrafted free agent out of Texas A&M back in 2013. He lasted just a few months in Green Bay before catching on with the Browns, Jaguars, and Seahawks. The Seahawks re-signed Lewis to a one-year, $1.671 million contract back in April.

Nanker Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 This could be a very good pickup for The Bills. Valesco hasn't shown much this off season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 I've seen so much criticism of Lewis over the past year or so from Seahawks fans. One guy I trust thinks he's capable as a starting C in the league. Can't be worse than Velasco, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 My Lindy's said about him "play of line improved markedly when he took over starting role at mid-season." He started 9 games for them last year. Sounds like a future replacement for Wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokestradamus Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 started 9 games for the hawks makes me think he has some talent He's a rarity. He's a Seahawks OL that actually played OL in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 center's can usually also play guard.....so it is good to see the bills are addressing backup interior OL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chilly Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 The fact this guy couldn't cut it on the terrible Seahawks line makes me VERY skeptical about this pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
