Do either of these signings have a real shot at contributing? I dont know them very well i think it's huge! i'm psyched! i can't see how newhouse doesn't automatically start at rt. i think connor mcd may have some upside and is fine for depth so cutting mills should be a wash money wise. seems like we got a helluva center as well. that could give them the option of cutting ducasse and moving groy to guard with miller as depth. i love these guys! 1

Real McClappy Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 These are great depth signings. One of the 2 might surprise us.
Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Compton must of wanted too much money?
BBillsWestCoast Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Josh Allen or Mayfield could fall all the way to 7-9 and we could trade up. It all depends on Denver. Just because analysts say what they think it doesn't mean that 1-2 guys won't drop... I want to wait until draft day and move to #9 from #22; If we trade #22, #56 and #96 to SF 49ers (they have no 2nd rounder) for pick #9 and their #124. I would be satisfied with #9 Allen/Mayfield, #12 Roquan Smith or Tremaine Edmunds, then still have picks #53, #65, rounds 4-6. This team is built to win on defense and needs help on the offensive line badly.

Like two or three of them. i'm not buying it , but given it's draft diamonds i can see it coming. i think it all depends on the jets. i can't see the giants giving up the no.2 pick. last time they picked this high they got eli.....not to mention barkley will be there. if the jets take allen and mayfield is still there at 4, i think that deal's already been hashed out with cle. i can't see them bending over for allen.

billsredneck1 Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 this team is gonna be stacked! when this draft is over we are going to look like the overhaul philly did....except we have a ton of cap next year to ice the cake. i am loving it!

Not sure Bodine is the kind of OL depth I'd sign. Not just because I think he's borderline useless, really don't think he's got any C/G flexibility.

With this Right side of the O line the QB will be running for their life. A qb who can digest plays, audible at the line, and throw quickly is the way to help a struggling line. Getting another runner back there is the exact opposite of what you need. Another ball carrier the oline will have to continue blocking for doesn’t help the line one bit. Case in point Brady and Manning can’t run for squat. How people dont don’t understand this is bewildering. Edited March 19, 2018 by Bobby Hooks 1

Not just because I think he's borderline useless, really don't think he's got any C/G flexibility. Groy does. Maybe they finally let him compete at G. Been seeing Bodine is a pretty good run blocker. Power is his game..just what Daboll is expected to bring. Could be a good fit.

Oh for christ sake We expect our backups to be pro bowlers? Getting backups with vet experience are about as good as its gonna get in this league.
Dkollidas Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Depth is depth. I’ll take it. Takes an immediate draft need off the front burner.
Greatdane21 Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 If either one of these guys end up starting the OL is in deep trouble hope we have a Qb that can run .

This may be one of the reasons that Newhouse was signed by the team. Although most of his playing time has come at offensive tackle, Newhouse played guard due to injuries with the Packers and Giants. One position Newhouse cannot play is running back as evidenced by his attempt to run with a fumble in a game against the Dolphins. 1 minute ago, BadLandsMeanie said: They always do.

Getting backups with vet experience are about as good as its gonna get in this league. Exactly, having veteran backups is a great thing on any team. It seems people think every player we sign is here to start.
Kmart128 Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Depth players with starting experience. Love it. Usually when we sign guys like this they automatically start but now we have competition on the oline
Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 Just in case the opportunity arises to move up and we decide to do so instead of retaining our high draft picks for quality, though unproven, players.
