Fixxxer Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 7. Cyrus Kouandjio, T, Buffalo Bills Playing left tackle, Cyrus Kouandjio avoided the devastation that was wreaked on the other side by Cameron Wake, but against Miami, he was pretty much flawless. He didn’t allow any QB pressures at all over 46 snaps of pass protection, and his run blocking was excellent, helping the Bills to rack up 272 rushing yards at 5.6 yards per carry. https://www.profootballfocus.com/pro-10-best-players-from-the-weekends-nfl-action/?utm_content=buffer6fabc&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=nfl
bmur66 Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 Great to see him pan out. 2 good LT's is a good problem
Blokestradamus Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 He's still only 23 so he may not be at his absolute ceiling yet either. A testament to both Aaron Kromer and Cyrus himself. Spent the past two offseasons working with LeCharles Bentley at his academy. You don't pack up and go live somewhere else for weeks during your time off unless you care about getting better at your craft.

TPS Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 If he keeps this up against the Jets, the Bills will have a good problem on their hands.
Franchiseneedsme Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 I think next year we put him at LT and move Glenn to RT Cujo can't play the right side because of his knee. And Glen got paid, so he shouldn't care.
John from Riverside Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Considering how bad he was to start he has come a loooooooong way I still think now that we have another player that can actually play LT that Cordy to RT would be good idea. You do that and this line actually looks pretty good.

Tells you he has a winning attitude and internal drive to turn himself into a better player. Love that. Hope he becomes a truly great one playing for the Bills. One of the worthwhile things to watch for Sunday.
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 It's why it's dumb to label guys busts so quick. I think linemen (and qbs) take time to develop on the NFL level.
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Glenn wants to get paid again, so he would care! Better option may be to trade one of them. Could you get a #1 for him? Likely easily could for Glenn, not so sure based on the limited time teams have seen Kujo, but maybe a 2nd? How much would you eat by treading Glenn, is it worth it? I think next year we put him at LT and move Glenn to RTCujo can't play the right side because of his knee. And Glen got paid, so he shouldn't care.
Lofton80 Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Not a terrible idea to trade one of them. Kujo and Groy have both very impressive.
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 You're right Groy;s another one, Doubt Woods would have a trade value, but could save some money there. Not a terrible idea to trade one of them. Kujo and Groy have both very impressive.
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Good teams have depth on the oline. Plus, what would you really get back in a trade for those guys?
TPS Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 It's why it's dumb to label guys busts so quick. I think linemen (and qbs) take time to develop on the NFL level.and as many have pointed out, he was 20 when drafted. Young, raw talent. I think they'll figure it out next year, so RT won't need to be a priority in the draft. On the interior, Lewis is another interesting prospect. Now, if they can only solve that little qb issue...
Doc Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 The question is though, will Glenn be a good right tackle? And if he isn't, what then? You still have no right tackle. I think they made a huge mistake in not trying out Kujo (again) at right tackle this year when Glenn was healthy.
Kelly the Dog Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 It's why it's dumb to label guys busts so quick. I think linemen (and qbs) take time to develop on the NFL level. And he was two years younger than half of the draft picks. Granted, you don't want to wait two and a half years for your second round pick to start performing well, but he may end up being a very solid player for a few years.
Augie Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 Good teams have depth on the oline. Plus, what would you really get back in a trade for those guys? A gamble, when we know we have a player in both those guys. How was Groy available? Credit to the players, Kromer and Whaley here.
LabattBlue Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 ...Cujo can't play the right side because of his knee. Have the coaches come out and said this, or does he just play better on the left side?
hondo in seattle Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 It's why it's dumb to label guys busts so quick. I think linemen (and qbs) take time to develop on the NFL level. Yep
