I'm sure he's got enough "good" tape out there that he'll get a job somewhere. 82 career starts actually. And 48 straight. Dur-ABILITY. As I said in another thread.............we grasp for tiny bits of positive data to support our free agent signings..........often ignoring mountains of negative data. Fans of some team are going to be like "holy ***** we got this guy who started 48 straight games and played on two teams that lead the NFL in rushing for that little money? He only had issues the last couple of seasons because the Bills offense was horrible under their new coaching staff!". 2
947 Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Mills would actually be an upgrade for the Texans, good for him. They'll surely draft a few OL, but he has a chance to start there.

Rocky Landing Posted March 18, 2019 Posted March 18, 2019 Weirdly, I'm a little nervous about Mills leaving. I don't see McD moving Nsekhe from the left side. Sirles is terrible. So, who is a better RT: Waddle, McDermott, or Mills?

A rock solid C can cover for mediocre G play and great G play can compensate for mediocre T play (in some cases). The point is, it’s how do they gel? If they gel well, they’re good.

I'd be thrilled if they took a guy like Yodny in round 3 to play RT, but not so hot about a RT at 9 unless they planned to flip him to LT eventually 1

I always thought that he was a little better than he got credit for. I’m not saying that he was good but he was okay in the running game anyways. He’s an NFL player. If he becomes someone's backup he will be one of the best backup tackles in the league.

GreggTX Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Mills is a backup caliber OT, but Houston's OT's aren't qualified NFL backups. He could start for them. Seriously.

Freakin Mills is better than Waddle. So are Long and Teller.

He must be good!!! But, the truth is: They didn't use him a whole lot. A lot of Bills have gone to the Pats* and excelled. Not so much the other way around. I remain skeptical.

Started a bunch of games over the years, and he did a nice job in his time with the Lions. Mills has proven to be a turnstile and McDermott hasn't done anything. So out of those three, Waddle is certainly the best.

I think that--IF Nsehke stayed at LT AND the season started today--Waddle would start at RT. And I'd love to hear your justification for saying that Long and Teller would be better at tackle than Waddle. Edited March 19, 2019 by thebandit27
