I predict that Mills will start at RT next year for the Bills. I don't see us successfully bringing in 3 new starters on the line. I see us getting two new on the interior and making it work with Mills for another year. 1

hemma Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 All in all, I would have preferred a 1/2 year extension.

Reader Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) We'll see if he makes it past training camp. At least Beane has been busy, I can't remember the last time the Bills have had four players (even if most are depth) re-signed this early. Edited January 16, 2019 by Reader

Would agree if same coaching staff but new OLine Coach will want his guys as starters - ie Castillo bringing Ducasse in. Mills if kept will be for depth purposes only - less likely given Searles signing today. IMO McBeane will look to sign a FA starter at C and RT, the draft an LT moving Dawkins to LG and Teller to RG. Very doable.

Very doable. I don't think they'll move Dawkins or Teller. I think they'll sign a Center and RG in free agency and then bring in some guys from the draft and depth guys to compete, but ultimately this year won't find an upgrade at RT. But we'll see. You have to remember that there are a ton of teams looking for oline help. The Bills will be lucky to sign two quality starters, much less 3. And you never know if a rookie draft pick will be ready to start or not.

I think Castillo ran a zone blocking type scheme, I wonder what the new O-Line coach will run ? Here is a good article on the Colts oline this past season. I know he was only the assistant coach but coaches should take knowledge with them. Also the Colts have like three first round picks, a second, and a fourth on their line I believe. I am sure that makes a big difference in itself. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000991118/article/behind-the-o-line-colts-authoring-incredible-turnaround-up-front 1

If if wasn’t him, it would be someone else at the same level in that spot. At least he knows the offense. No guarantee of making the team. Edited January 16, 2019 by YoloinOhio

I'd rather they resign Mills as the swing back up tackle then Sirles and that's really saying something. Mills will be paid a lot more than this guy..

Bangarang Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 I hope he never sees the field because he looked bad when he did.
Florida Bills Fanatic Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 Maybe just a camp body, maybe has shown something in practice that we didn't see in game action, maybe depth in anticipation of sending Groy and Bodine down the road. At this point in time, it's anyone's guess. there will be a lot of these kinds of moves on the way to a 90 player roster.
formerlyofCtown Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) 3 hours ago, Ethan in Portland said: They will not draft ten guys. McBeane's history is wasting picks and moving up in the draft. Fortunately the only wasted picks they can use are day three picks. They will package the late round picks and probably try to get a higher 2020 pick. The only way they use ten picks is if 3 of them are PK, P, and LS. What picks did he waste? He does have that long history of one whole draft. Edited January 16, 2019 by formerlyofCtown
CEN-CAL17 Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 He is our new Groy. I still Think they bring back Mills and still sign a Jawaan James type FA. Sign a top FA center and Draft a 4th round OG. Focus in Skill Positions in the Draft. OLB, WR, TE first 3 picks
