I appreciate the update on Finland’s healthcare crisis though. 1 7

I think Long steps into the Groy roll. Even if he’s starting at G he can slide to C and Teller or a rookie can step in at G if need be. 2

This dude is a mauling beast! He destroys tackles and is always looking second level. On the last play he clears his guy all the away across the field and pancakes him. And his nickname is 'Mongo?' I may have a new favorite Buffalo Bill. Meet your new LG guys. Dawkins life just got a lot easier. Edited March 13, 2019 by RocCityRoller

Bob in STL Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 1 hour ago, DaBillsFanSince1973 said: Bills to sign former Raiders OL Jon Feliciano Feliciano has been a starting-level guard for a while but guard has been one of the Raiders’ strongest positions, so he hasn’t gotten a real shot with Oakland. Now he will get his chance to shine as he protects Bills quarterback Josh Allen in the snowy climes of western New York. It’s sad to see Feliciano go, but he deserves his chance to start and make his mark on the AFC East. Happy trails to Mongo. The Raiders will surely be looking for more guard depth in the very near future. Great information here. 1

Seems to me, all OLinemen signed are more pass blockers than run blockers... Add the new receivers for speed and slot + TE... I sense a really pass happy Bills team this coming season! While I do like a good run game, this could be a really vertical, long pass happy team that's very entertaining. Is it built for November & December weather though?

I posted that link on another message board for an entirely different subject. I thought I'd copied the NFL.com link, but I guess I didn't The Finland link was still in my clipboard. LOL Here's the right link: http://www.nfl.com/draft/2015/profiles/jon-feliciano?id=2552343 The good news is it sounds like he's played better as a pro than his college scouting report suggested he would. I still think he's probably more competition than a clear upgrade, but competition is good in any case. Edited March 13, 2019 by TigerJ
Bob in STL Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 I don’t know if he starts but if he pushes Teller to be better that would be great. I think he will get a chance. Every player in camp should get a fair look. 1

Orangeman said: Our kind of guy...bootstraps. http://www.espn.com/espn/onenacion/story/_/id/20914886/jon-feliciano-remarkable-journey-oakland-raiders Never heard of him. But love his perseverance and grit, not just for football, but how about for life: grows up in a dysfunctional home, overcomes that adversity with the help of some really great friends. Overcomes more tragedy when losing one of those friends. Loves his wife and daughter, and his childhood friends through them. Buffalo will embrace you Jon Feliciano = Instant fan favorite!!!!
