Watkins90 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 The two "signings" are for very different types of players. DiMarco is a run blocking FB. Tolbert is a goal line power back. He's the guy to come in on 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 plays. That is what we have Mike G. for. However, I bet we are preparing to lose him to someone else who is going to get a steal.

BillsFan17 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 A 31 year old back who has pedestrian YPA. I really don't understand this move other than possible seeing Tolbert as strictly a short yardage/passing back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Well seems like we are doubling down on the ground and pound philosophy even without Rex. Re-sign Taylor and bring in a bruising back to go along with the two good backs we already have on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 More of a power RB than a FB, not a great blocker. id qualify them as definitely different roles. As you said, power runner here while dimarco will not be taking carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't understand this move other than possible seeing Tolbert as strictly a short yardage/passing back. He can't do anything else. We need a short yardage specialist. Dimarco doesn't carry the ball at all. Also, no guarantee he makes the final roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
