blacklabel Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 On a podcast called Moranalytics (hosted by that Patrick Moran guy), Tyler Dunne talked about how he heard Cordy Glenn "checked out" after signing his big contract extension and many in the organization were more than happy to see him go. I found it kind of interesting because we've never really heard that type of stuff about Glenn. He's always been said to be a quiet guy but a good teammate, somewhat of a leader on the OL. Plus, after he came off that season where he struggled with an illness, he came back for OTAs in the best shape of his life, showing his dedication to the diet and fitness plan given to him by the trainers.

BuffaloRush Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Wow. Ty is a very reliable reporter and I’m pretty sure he’s not just embellishing. 4

Magox Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Wouldn't surprise me simply for the fact that it was pretty damn apparent that Beane/McD were trying to ship him off for quite some time. No, I have no proof of that other than what I heard and my intuition.
CBD Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Ty Dunne tweeted something like this shortly after the trade.

CommonCents Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 You needed to hear it from a reporter? Perhaps you didn't see the picture this season where Cordy looked like he ate a small rhino. 2 4

Here's the link for anyone that wants to check it out: http://moranalytics.com/tyler-dunne-bleacher-report-podcast/ I think people go overthink the players maintaining a good diet and being dedicated to staying in good shape. Just because you are a healthy person and want to be in good physical shape, does not mean you want to grind out practice 3-4 times a week and go through the physical pounding each and every football game brings. Cordy Glenn wants to be healthy and fit like much of society. He is willing to eat well and stay good shape. That is something completely separate from still being dedicated to put in the mental work, take the physical pounding of the actual game, and take the necessary recovery steps post game in season, needed to maintain a high level of play throughout a season. That is the challenge teams face when they give guys like Glenn $65 million deal with $26.5 million guaranteed.
Misterbluesky Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 I heard a rumor that he had a kidney removed.
eball Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 But did Pat Moran bet the lives of his children on the accuracy of the report? 1
GunnerBill Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Always been a Cordy fan but Tyler Is a very good reporter and I have no reason to disbelieve.
Blokestradamus Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 We never hear a single thing said about Cordy and then, as soon as he leaves, all this **** starts coming out? I'm not saying that Tyler is a liar but it doesn't smell right to me. 4 1

Cordy you look like you're 400 damn pounds stop eating so much. He does look pretty freaking huge in that picture. The fact that Beane was able to get the equivalent of a 2nd for him is amazing.

The fact that Beane was able to get the equivalent of a 2nd for him is amazing. Believe it or not a picture surfaced of him stretching later in the year and he looked even worse. I can't find it right now, I remember him being in a practice jersey and down one knee. Certainly had the physique of a guy who checked out.

I'm not saying that Tyler is a liar but it doesn't smell right to me. I was going to say the same. He's always seemed like a good guy, stays quiet, out of trouble. Pretty much exactly what McDermott looks for in a player, as far as character. He was a 2nd round pick, so it's not like he didn't have money prior to his extension. I think, if anything, his ankle didn't "check out", and the Bills got lucky enough to find a cheaper, younger, healthier replacement.

I think, if anything, his ankle didn't "check out", and the Bills got lucky enough to find a cheaper, younger, healthier replacement. If the story goes that Cordy was making more money than they wanted to pay considering Dion seems capable of playing the spot on a rookie deal, I can buy that. Combined with the injury and the whole pursuit of the QB thing, moving him on made perfect sense. I just really hope that this isn't a sign of things to come. Guys like Sammy and Marcell, I can get why coaches might not be willing to put up with their ****. If they're going to talk crap about guys like Cordy that have given the team so much in the past, the Process might want a look in the mirror. 3
Jpsredemption Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 How is Pat Moran still in the media circuit even if it's the 3rd tier?

billieve420 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 McDermott/Beane have clearly demonstrated if you are not buying into the process they are going to ship you out regardless of how talented you are. 1
