If the Conference champs are willing to kick him to the curb, why would we be interested? Well,then go all offense in the draft and get your defensive pieces with the savings for the ufa's.I wouldn't have a issue with starting off with Taylor from the Gators at nine...hit up a flanker in the second,in the third bang out a guard.All of this depends on us getting a Center...Morse is the guy to hit up next wednesday..we'll have to over pay somebody if the need is dire...I consider getting a stud center a priority. 1
BillsFan1988 Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 Sullivan's play fell off a cliff the last 10gms of the yr. No thanks.

But he plays with really good pad level, and does an excellent job of working out to LBs. His play recognition is top-notch. To me, that spells center. Obviously I'd rather have Bradbury, but I'm not inclined to spend the No. 9 overall pick on a center. I don’t care if he’s Jim Otto, Mike Webster, and Dwight Stephenson all rolled into one, you CANNOT take a center at 9.
MrEpsYtown Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 John Sullivan is the guy they pivoted to when we matched the Ryan Groy offer sheet. Groy got paid but I'd be pissed if I were him. Rams wa ted him to be their starting center, we matched and he sat on the bench for two years. Maybe they go after Groy again. Sullivan is old.

Re-signing Groy would be like re-signing both Pitts and Lacey...meaningless if you want to make the playoffs in '19.jmho

HOUSE Posted March 5, 2019 Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) Keep in mind the Rams tried to steal Ryan Groy away to replace him... Edited March 5, 2019 by HOUSE

Now that I think about it just offer saffold and then go after Paradis or Morse. If they sign those 2 next week the line is immediately Soo much better . Edited March 5, 2019 by BeefCurtns

I'll take Saffold, Spain, Cann, James, Williams, whomever.

If the Conference champs are willing to kick him to the curb, why would we be interested? Yeah, I think they are at least a year away from bringing any older players like this in to fill the missing pieces. I'd rather spend resources this year on younger players/draft picks who should be around a while. 1

He actually reminds me a bit of Mitch Morse who was a good college tackle who got better the longer he played but always looked tailor made to be a center at the next level.

I don’t know if true, but was reading some analysis during the combine that Bradbury isn’t strong enough yet to play C in the nfl and they didn’t expect him to be able to start their right away

Morse is probably a fair comparison, as is Cody Whitehair, though I think Whitehair was a bit better athlete.

Although his bench was impressive core strength and leg strength are both often overlooked and more important, which he probably needs a offseason of strength training to improve upon. Still a great prospect though.
FearLess Price Posted March 6, 2019 Posted March 6, 2019 20 hours ago, freddyjj said: Hard pass. PFF rated Bodine #18 C and we also have Long. Sullivan rated #31 of all Cs and he is 34 yrs old. Still believe Bills will draft long term solution at C this year in McCoy from A&M or Bradbury NC State. Long or Bodine will be short term solution. What round do u think we grab a center?
