hemma Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Some of the high draft choice OL guys will bump a few vets off of rosters. That's where I think Beane will look for some OL help along with other teams' PS.

SCBills Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Just now, BadLandsMeanie said: o line doesn't pass block in your world? Do you feel more comfortable with Lafayette Pitts getting playing time or Vlad Ducasse? The answer to that question is why we drafted Johnson. Nevermind the fact theres value at DB right now as opposed to the OL scraps.
Bookie Man Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Great fit. Buffalo with E.J. Gaines 2017: 8 -3 / 20 ppg allowed Buffalo without E.J. Gaines 2017: 1 - 4 / 30.4 ppg allowed Not sure if the correlation is related directly to Gaines playing in those games, but he definitely seemed to be a factor in the defenses performance. Taron Johnson has a similar skill set to Gaines and hopefully he can have a similar impact on this defense.
OCinBuffalo Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Just now, BadLandsMeanie said: o line doesn't pass block in your world? O line pass blocks all F'ing day, and never runs the football, if the secondary can't stop the other team from passing in my world. That does 2 things: 1. Significantly increases the fatigue of the O line, thus increasing the chance for injury 2. Forces the QB and every blocking scheme, on every play, to be near perfect. While I fully understand the need/want to run the football, I also understand that running is pointless when you are down 2 TD in the 3rd qtr.

I wanted Richardson at that point, that's why I wasn't thrilled, but McBeane have shown good talent evaluation on D sooo.
MAJBobby Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Tyrell Cosbey OT/OG - Still there. St Brown and Cain - Still there. Perfect 5th round picks 2

Mikie2times Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Perfect fit for this system. Both sides of the ball are void of talent and have huge need. I see this kid getting substantial playing time. I want offense too, but if they don't like who they see on offense I would rather land a contributor on defense.

This is a sneaky position of need that's filled a little by Taron Johnson And Phillip Gaines.

Yes they drafted him in 6th. Cut him to try and slide him thru to the PS. Bills claimed him and kept him on their 53 all season because they knew he would not get to their PS. 1
Rufridr101 Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 I think the plan on offensive line is Dion Dawkins at left guard newhouse/McDermott left tackle groy/Bodine center nickel cornerback is a huge need brady hasn't retired our best chances this year elite defense hold opponents down score just enough next year build the offensive side of the ball
Mopreme Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Free agent talent. This is the worst pick so far. I don’t like small corners. This guy is a depth play, might be able to play slot but why so early? They should gone WR or offensive line.

Like this kid though, I think we could have got him later tho. this what drives me crazy, think we could have drafted him later, ok , i'll bite what make you think they could have drafted hum later,. just give me one iota of proof to back up your statement. thought so, you can't.
