Aussie Joe Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 8 minutes ago, TheBeane said: There really isn't a lot out there in offensive help. There might be more as camps roll along and cuts happen, but you never know. Sign Kendricks, get that defense as formidable as possible and they'll keep us in and win some games for us. There is nothing out there now, but this time yesterday Kendricks wasn't available either... I think there will be a couple of solid WR's that shake loose from somewhere that they can go after between now and say August.... Solid OL help I think is less likely to come on the market which is unfortunate because its the bigger need...

Solid OL help I think is less likely to come on the market which is unfortunate because its the bigger need... I think that I’m of the belief that WR is a bigger need than OL (although both are needs). I just happen to think that some of the young OL (specifically Miller and Groy) are a little better than people think. If Teller and McDermott can play they will have decent competition and depth there. The WR position is all question marks. There are health issues, speed concerns and an inexperienced group. There isn’t much to feel good about at this point. Edited May 23, 2018 by Kirby Jackson 1
Logic Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 12 minutes ago, NoSaint said: Why do you assume he’d be the 3rd lb? Tremaine Edmunds will be the starting MIKE and I think they like Milano continuing as the WILL. I think the staff is high on Matt Milano and not eager to send him to the bench. The biggest hole in our defense, therefore, is at SAM, where only Lorenzo Alexander currently resides. 1
MrEpsYtown Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 If I'm him I'm taking less money to go to the Rams and play behind Suh and Donald. He will make a million tackles, great fit with Wade and he's a West Coast guy. I could see the Steelers, maybe the Vikings to play with his brother.

Are you in Marketing ? ☺️ we have no idea how McBeane feels about this guy, or their budget. Sweet set of linebackers though almost immediately. On Paper 50/50

I suspect that he’s a 3 down guy and Milano/Zo share package duties. I’m not an expert on him but it seems he’s a better 3 down player and allows them to bring the young guy along with favorable situations still.

I bet he had a wonderful time winning. If I’m him, I’m signing a 1 year deal with another contender if someone isn’t willing to pay top dollar. As much as we love our city, not everyone sees Buffalo as a desirable destination, but top dollar makes us look a lot better. If we somehow get him, I’d bet top dollar that it’s over 6.5 mill a year.

Barring trades or June 1st cuts what you see at Wr and Oline is probably what you get. Kendricks would be an immediate upgrade at OLB. Alexander, and Humber are old. Edmunds, Malano, and Vellajo are young. 1

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted May 23, 2018 Posted May 23, 2018 Kendricks Edmunds Milano...with our Secondary we would probably be the best pass Defense in football tomorrow and the best overall defense by week 8 1 1

Schwartz has remained adamant about keeping 4 on the D-line and almost never blitzing. As a result, he runs the nickel A LOT and has a pair of very good linebackers in Bradham on the weakside and Hicks in the middle. They saved $6 million in cap space for cutting him, and have been trying to deal him for years. He's considered a very nice contributor, but for $7.6 M...that's pretty high if you aren't starting. 3
