That is really not how it works The secondary for the browns didnt look good when Poyer played for the browns either We are talking about a DEPTH/ST player.....I dont think kuch is available 1 minute ago, YoloinOhio said: Is that what the Pats say every time they acquire someone from the Bills? These exact things were being said about Poyer

I'm still told that was a good trade. Bills had no choice. He was threatening to do something that would have undermined the burgeoning Gailey/Nix dynasty. 1

Are we forgetting that Lynch was showing up unmotivated and out of shape? I would say that over time they did improve the position (Shady?)

I thought Hairston had been out of the league but apparently he’s been on the Chargers. Now a free agent. We’ll see who sticks around longer.

In a way I am sure that trade got the Bills to the playoffs last year. To paraphrase Augustus from this very forum........"Rome was not built in one day".
artmalibu Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 Bring him into camp... Cut him if there is someone better...

TC in St. Louis Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 I loved it when we picked him. He was MVP of the Rose Bowl win over Wisconsin. I was tired of him making all the tackles. 1

billsfan89 Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 8 hours ago, John from Riverside said: We cant be all pro at every position We are gonna have to fill out the roster with guys like this that can play in a emergency, have value on special teams, and not completely suck while playing next to other starters. The bills are shedding salary......it seems like a logical move. It's cost-benefit analysis, Tank probably wouldn't cost anything more than the vet minimum and the Bills are uber thin at Linebacker and don't have a dominant special teams unit. Tank could be an upgrade over what the team has and at worst would be a nice veteran to have in camp. I don't think this would be a bad move at all. 2 hours ago, OldTimer1960 said: The Browns have stockpiled a lot of talent over the past 2 years.

The Browns are a lot more talented than they have been with some big trades and free agents to go with a lot of high draft choices they brought in. I still think they are a year away but 5-6 wins is a pretty reasonable expectation for them. 1
BillsfaninChicago Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 Man I remember getting into an argument on the old BBMB about this guy. Basically People were saying it was a great thing that we cut out 5th round pick before ever playing a regular season game because it meant we had “great depth” at the position. That logic didn’t make sense to me then and it doesn’t make sense to me now. Nix claimed he was going to build through the draft and we were cutting players we drafted within months of acquiring them.
Nick the Greek Posted June 6, 2018 Posted June 6, 2018 The guy could not even make our roster back when we drafted him. And now bring him back? Thank god we Beane running the show.
