Now that Saffold signed with Ten - What Guards (or Tackle) should we be looking at?

[twist_to_open]

I just hope our new OL coach can get the right 5 starters set and sync them up early.

I would still like to see us to add a guard who really excels in run blocking. Morse was a nice pick up, but he isn't exactly a menace in the run game. Our line still lacks toughness, and has since Wood and Richie retired. I'm fine with drafting someone if we can't find the right guy in FA.

I understand that everyone wants to compile an absolute list slotting each player at all five OL positions. The reality is that 2 of the guys we signed don't have an absolute position. Long will not play center with the Morse signing. Dawkins will start somewhere whether it be LT or LG. Ty will start somewhere whether it be LT or RT. The Bills will almost certainly draft multiple lineman. 

 

Based on these signings, there will likely be much to sort out in camp. It will be up to the staff to decide who plays where, etc. 

 

Morse at center is really the only certainty.

Quentin Spain, AJ Cann, my fantasy trade for Forrest Lamp, reunite with Andy Levitre. The rest are really depth guys like Eric Kush types.

I’d think Dawkins at Lt or RT. But.... all this is a good problem to have. At the very least we have some seriously solid depth for the season.

Although I expect Dawkins to play LT or LG, that's a possibility. If we make another move, it may give us a clearer picture as to what the line will look like.

 

At this point, we've signed 2 players(outside of Morse) who don't have a definitive position as of yet. I think we're in general agreement that alot of this won't be sorted out until training camp. As you said, it's a challenge for the staff but not a problem.

 

Long and Ty(don't want to look up his last name again) are better than Miller and Mills. That's a good thing.
