He could push for the RT job too yet think that Ford ends up starting. He's my top 5 Dawkins Spain Morse Long Ford I don't know about that -- fully Nsekhe was brought in to start. Pushing Dawkins is a possibility but not as the primary reason imo 1
947 Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 I think the Guard pecking order would be as follows: 1- Dawkins (if he moves to OG) 2- Ford (if he moves to OG) 3-Spain 4- Long 5- Feliciano 6- Teller 7- Empty garbage can 8- Ducasse 0% chance Ducasse makes the team. Any reps he takes in OTAs are wasted opportunities the new guys should be taking. 1 1

I think Ford will start at RG and will move to RT either next year or the following. Nsekhe is a short term starter imo. 1

If Ford is as good as I've heard through multiple outlets, then I think he's a day one starter 2 minutes ago, YattaOkasan said: I also think Ford might need a minute before becoming RT full time.

I also think they could stay longer if the Bills O Line does really well across the board.

First play from scrimmage Darnold fumbles the snap, Poyer picks it up and takes it to the house. Allen finishes the Jets game with something like 20/31, 274, 2td’s. 65% completion. We blow them out. it was vivid. It was good. And now I want football damn it. Adam Gase gets fired and Greggo is promoted to GM. 1

McDermott was quite explicit in saying "it isn't football until the pads go on in training camp" or words to that effect. At this point, they're assessing overall work ethic, effort on the field, and ability to learn the plays and be coachable. They're not going to make any moves that aren't reactive - eg even if they want to move on from Ducasse, they won't cut him unless they make a trade or a signing and need the room, and even then it may be a fringe UDFA that meets the scissors. Unless youre talking about the Jets. In which case Adam Gase could sign a journeyman backup OL and place Quinnen Williams on waivers.?

Probably skill positions are easier to evaluate in OTAs than the trenches. Still, at least some chemistry can be built up and some things can discerned by a trained coach's eyes. I wouldnt be surprised if some Oline personnel get released after OTAs. Edited May 20, 2019 by IgotBILLStopay
IgotBILLStopay Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 Last year Wood and Incognito were released after OTAs - though one can argue it was not really their performance on the field that was a factor in either decision.
YoloinOhio Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 I will just hope for no injuries. Ruben Foster/Redskins just got carted off the field on the 2nd play of their OTAs

Ruben Foster/Redskins just got carted off the field on the 2nd play of their OTAs the last 2 years have been freakishly major injury free in the preseason and regular season, for the most part..... i'm bracing hard this summer for a big one. I actually just always sorta do and have been pleasantly surprised lately.

Mike in Syracuse Posted May 20, 2019 Posted May 20, 2019 23 hours ago, HappyDays said: My prediction for the first starting alignment is: Dawkins - Ducasse - Morse - Long - Ford I don't see any scenario were Ducasse starts over Spain or Feliciano.
