Agree with Aaron Schobel. Maybe I just undersell him in my head, but Antoine Winfield is a name I'll toss out there.

For some reason, Winfield seemed like one of the few players that never really got hated on. People loved him if I remember correctly and it was thought to be a big loss when he left.

 

I also think people think all cornerbacks should tackle like him which is crazy.

Without hesitation I say that the answer is Jabari Greer

 

The man was an undrafted FA that worked his way up to full time starter and was a bona fide #1 corner.

 

This team made a critical error when they let him walk for $5.5M per year so that they could keep McGee at $7M per.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Travis Henry was pretty good here. Nate Clements was excellent in his time here. London Fletcher was pretty solid.

 

Only 4 first team all-pro players in the drought. Mario, Dareus, Takeo, and Moorman. So those would be the best players, but I don't think any of them would qualify as underrated.

I'm going to go with Fletcher. 5 years as our Mike, never missed a game. Fletcher played what 7 more seasons?

Dumbest point ever was that Fletcher made too many tackles down the field. He then went to Washington and did awesome for them. He was a flat out football player.

True, he doesn't get much hate. I just think he is better than he gets credit for sometimes.

The only thing I can remember somewhat negative about him is he didn't get a lot of INTs. He was a really, really good player. The Bills are great at finding cbs and rbs.

That's because they keep drafting them #1

Eric Moulds. Eric Moulds late 90's early 2000's was a beast. He was a beast across the middle, and a threat to take a quick slant to the house.

I honestly thought McGee was overrated. Especially towards the end. Kept relying on him to be healty and cover number 1s and he kept seeming to fall short.

 

I'mma go Poz on this one. Never really put together an exciting highlight package was was a solid contributor who didn't let up a whole lot of big plays. Class act. He is with the jags and has been one of only a few players to stick through turnover and continue to start in what appears to be a solid defense going forward. I wouldn't be surprised if he is a Kyle Williams to the fan base over there.

Poz was grossly overrated during his years here. He was terrific at racking up tackles...8 yards downfield. I was so pleased when he moved to Jax.

oh yeah?

 

then what about guiness draught, huh? and what about alec guiness who was English?

 

not so high and mighty now are you

 

And Russians are red, and fire trucks are always rushin' so I guess I was mistaken.

Of course that's misdisunregarding my comment about it not being an American English word. Which is repetitive, not mention redundant, since history shows us we spoke it first, then the Brits stole it once they stopped speaking Irish. Really mind bottling.

Logorrhea.

 

And I'm sticking with T. Henry, although if we go by jerseys owned its EMo. Normally more jerseys <> under rated, but as a typical Bills fan, I always purchase the jerseys of the players that aren't the national figures (Poz, EMo, the backler/Whiffner, Fast Freddie, etc.)

draught is the British spelling of DRAFT. It has nothing to do with the word drought, which is the one you were looking for

Literally NO ONE else picks McGahee? Dude was a beast.

 

My only issue was it was a 1st round pick, and he didnt play in 2003. Also we lost price before 2003 and our offense fell apart. Seems like a luxury pick for a team that.. shouldn't have been doing that?

No it isn't. Draft and Draught are both words in English. They have very different meanings.

Aaron Schobel

 

He may be most-underrated Bill of all time

Absolutely. At one point he was the only good pass rusher on the team. Teams could double him up all day long and he still produced. Jauron used to send him in pass coverage as well.

 

Schobel was a very good player but most people would compare him to Bruce. That sucked for him.

That's because they keep drafting them #1

Bravo!

Aaron Schobel was extremely high-motor. I remember getting tired just watching him run 30+ yards trying to turn the corner on the LT all game.

I hear ya Rico but Jauron had him lined up near the out of bounds line on some plays. Unbelievable. :(

 

When Schobel got experienced he learned some good moves and didn't always go wide.

Is this a trick question? I'm thinking the only possible correct answer is Sam Adams, though I'd say appropriately rated as a player, overrated as a draught. :beer:
