ndirish1978 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 I'm just waiting for all those that ripped Whaley to come swarming into this thread to eat crow and admit that Whaley played it right. Any time now... Oh, and can I make a request? Can the loyal TBDers not lump all us BBMB refugees into the "awful, reactionary swine" column? Can you just judge us individually as posters? I've now seen a few different posts that were derogatory/inflammatory toward "the new guys" as a whole, and that's not really fair. Some bad apples may have come over, but some good ones did, too. Don't assume that just because someone hasn't been on this forum all along, they're automatically crazy Hill People. As a group the BBMB refugees have done themselves few favors. The people who constantly identify with the now defunct board and refuse to follow custom by creating lamp and duplicate threads give that whole group a bad name. There is a large group of solid posters that have come over, you're amongst them. You, teef and a bunch of the solid people who actually make an attempt to assimilate are welcome. I would encourage you to consider yourself just a TBDer and stop defining yourself by where you posted before.

CodeMonkey Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) Interesting. I often see posts pissing and moaning when players aren't perceived as loyal to the team. And here I see several "Cut Wood" posts. Not sure you could find a more loyal or stand-up Bill. Edited March 17, 2017 by CodeMonkey

Guy has battled tons of injuries he might not be the best but he is a solid player and he's a bash brother
turbo044 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 If we cut Wood this year, he would cost more to the cap than if we kept him, so forget cutting him. Restructuring is a distinct possibility
8-8 Forever? Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 I am impressed with Doug Whaley so far this offseason. They now need to retain Gillislee and take a WR at 10 and I'll be excited for next season. yep, must be mid to late March.... dreamland cometh again...

Guy has battled tons of injuries he might not be the best but he is a solid player and he's a bash brother Who's out there you can sign that would be an upgrade? He broke his leg early in his career and got hurt last year, outside of that hes been very dependable. Far from tons of injuries. Cutting solid starters is a fantastic idea when you don't have to. Edit Sorry, read your post again and realized you were criticizing those who want to cut him, not those who don't. Edited March 17, 2017 by elroy16
turftoe Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Maybe the Rams now want to trade for him and offer us a pick.
YoloinOhio Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) Maybe the Rams now want to trade for him and offer us a pick.well, they are kind of screwed. As they waited for the Bills to decide, the Ravens traded their starting center Zuttah to SF. So they lost out on both him and Groy. Elflein to Rams in whatever round they actually have picks this year. Edited March 17, 2017 by YoloinOhio
Mikie's Bills Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) ^ That's why it was smart for Buffalo to wait to match so that it deters other teams from offering our RFAs offer sheets. By doing so their hands are tied with regards to other FAs/trade targets and they miss out. Glad to have Groy back, but we have a lot of O-linemen now. Starting 5+ Groy+ Lewis+ Ducasse+ Kujo+ Henderson (suspended for start of year so it buys us an extra roster spot for the first month or so). Maybe they keep 9 to start the year and someone gets injured by the time Henderson gets back? Dunno. Edited March 17, 2017 by Mikie's Bills

frostbitmic Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Good move, Groy is our #2 Center, #3 Guard and in a pinch could play RT. In another year or two he could be our starting Center full time.
Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 I can't see them keeping Lewis now can you? ^ That's why it was smart for Buffalo to wait to match so that it deters other teams from offering our RFAs offer sheets.

billspro Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Cutting Wood is silly. I am happy to have good oline depth for once. Great signing.
