Super Bowls? No **** Sherlock. Pro Bowls? ? Nope. Try again. Gilmore actually went to the Pro Bowl with the Bills but was not selected with the Pats. No former Bills were selected to the Pro Bowl. As an aside, Zach Brown also went to the Pro bowl with the Bills, but then was not selected with the Redskins. None of the other guys he mentioned who had good seasons (all WRs, nice throwing TT under the bus along the way) who made the playoffs (boohoo oh wait you did too) went to the pro Bowl either. Yup, the way he is depicting the result of these guys leaving is as if they became superstars once they left Buffalo. Honestly, good luck to him. I cannot wait to see him try to cover shady out of the backfield.
BringBackOrton Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 The more Bills that go to the Pats, the better chance they choke away another Super Bowl. Go Preston! 1 1
goldenboy81 Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 28 minutes ago, billsfanmiami(oh) said: I think Brown sucks. Won’t be sad at all to see him go. Totally agree.. 1 of the softest players on the d..Cant cover, and is a clean up tackler.. Goodbye bum
Billy Zabka Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Preston is durable as all hell, but lacks the speed and playmaking ability of the elite linebackers...You simply can't tie a ton of money into a player like that, which I am sure he will get as a UFA. 1

The author tried like Gumby to make it look like Gillislee did anything, which was amusing. With that QB assessment skill, I think we should give Preston a look at Assistant GM.

Plus his agent is his mom so I know for a fact that they had tentative discussions over the summer, as I assume is cursory for most front offices and representatives of soon-to-be free agents. If what they were asking for then still stands as the demand now, I do not see Preston staying in Buffalo. 2 1

TPS Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 It’s a business. Players realize it, and most get one good shot for a good bump in salary when they hit FA the first time. PB is playing the game.

I know the two sides have talked ... just not sure the “the Bills are trying to keep him” as much as they are learning what he wants and comparing the value they have placed on him and others in the market

Good at chasing behind receivers by two yards and making tackles 5 years past the line. Good luck Preston. You've seen that too huh! Edited February 28, 2018 by horned dogs 1
TC in St. Louis Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 The guy makes too many tackles. Let him go. 1 3
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 FWIW. He was one of the lowest rated players at his position by PFF. To the eye, he looks like a poor mans David Harris. Not real fast, but heady, makes tackles, weak in coverage against quick backs and receivers. I don't know what he wants, but its not a huge loss to let him go because he's not that great. 1
richardb1952 Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I would guess that the Bills would like someone more athletic than Brown. If true, I would think they would not want to commit to him long term and since this is his chance for a big payday, I believe it will be somewhere else. I could see the Bills offering a 2 yr deal as they try to fill other holes. I'm sure Brown is looking for more.

GrizzReaper Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 I hope he doesn't go to NE. I know it's probably just paranoia but I swear they just want to pick his little MLB brain. Wasn't he making the defenses calls on the field? Man I hate New England... Guess you can't blame the guy for trying to get paid. GL Brown... Unless it's with NE.
CardinalScotts Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 his run fits are brutal, the non aggressive caught in the wash approach is tough to watch and he is a liability versus the pass. Ya he's UNDER rated good god !!! i do not want Preston back

"A lot of guys left the last year, and it seemed like everybody who left us was going to the playoffs — (Rams wide receivers) Sammy Watkins and Robert Woods, (49ers receiver) Marquise Goodwin. Everybody who left had a good season. It’s definitely something you look at like, wow, those guys are having success. But the Patriots, they definitely seem to get the best out of the Buffalo Bills.” He was too busy getting trucked by Bortles 2
benderbender Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 He’s a free agent talking his name up. I can’t hate him for that. But the Gronk cheap shot without retribution, and no hard feelings towards a team that have beat you regularly really speaks to his sense of commradery.
