Coach Tuesday Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 Rumors are that he's spoiled and entitled and they've had to hold his hand a lot in that program. I agree with the OP (for once). 1

I in fact hope the Bills draft him now just to watch this board melt over something as stupid as this. Expand He that's true, he can do that from the stands.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) @Coach Tuesday Have a friend that works at the Univiersty. Apparently, earlier that day, there was a parking space reserved for some big shot board member. Ed Oliver, being the big man on campus (literally), decided to move the parking cone and park there. Got towed. I met his dog once too. Big ol' great dane. Beautiful dog. His girlfriend takes it to the locker room for him so that he can play with the dog before the game. While harmless, I doubt that if he wasn't the best defesnive player the school has seen in decades, that would happen. Edited November 19, 2018 by The Real Buffalo Joe 2

K-9 Posted November 20, 2018 Posted November 20, 2018 If you look closely at the video, you’ll see a player shivering uncontrollably at the end of the bench. All for the want of a warm team parka.
LSHMEAB Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 I really hope we draft Oliver after reading through some of the responses in this thread. 1
Thurman#1 Posted November 24, 2018 Posted November 24, 2018 This is a hiccup. If there are bunch more incidents then it might be a worry.

He fits a natural need as Kyle Williams replacement. The coach is the one at fault, not helped by that interview, its a stupid rule and I can see why a player would react Expand We technically drafted his replacement this year already... This year's draft is 100% offense. 1

Mat68 Posted November 25, 2018 Posted November 25, 2018 This allows him to fall outside of the top 5 right to Buffalo. He is one of the few difference makers available. 2

This year's draft is 100% offense. Expand Phillips has yet to show he has much pass rush so a pass rushing DT is an option, DE too. Furthermore we definitely need to draft a CB, we have a massive problem that we have 1 outside CB. It'll be offense heavy, but we'll definitely draft defense too

Imo if Oliver slips Williams goes higher. I dont think you can pass on a difference maker. I dont care the position. Who is going to be the best guy in 5 years. Who is the best player.
bobobonators Posted November 25, 2018 Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) 1. I dont know what, if anything, led up to this event. 2. Based on the incident alone on the video, the player’s reaction is insane. 3. If the player loses his mind over something like this, how will real adversity be handled? That being said, he’s still a young man and who knows what fire may have been brewing between him and the HC; however, his reaction is still concerning.

Choir boys belong in church, not on the football field. Expand I definitely dont want choir boys. Im all-in on acquiring talent. Still, his ridiculous reaction on the sidelines to the leader of the team is concerning. A player had to hold him back from bulldozing the HC. He needs his head checked.
