Cripple Creek Posted May 22, 2019 Posted May 22, 2019 I’m concerned about Beane feeling the need to sign a tackle. Has Ford looked that bad?

They got rid of a tackle and signed another. Just some roster churn after first OTAs. 1

Hopefully the rooks can get up to speed quickly. How long is this foot going to take to heal? Oct? A crew of Croom and Knox doesn't give me much faith in us targeting TE's very much.

hemma Posted May 22, 2019 Posted May 22, 2019 I don’t think Kroft being injured is all bad. Pushes Knox and Sweeney to get up to speed in a hurry. Way too early to panic when the end result could be as good or better.

It had nothing to do with Ford. This was a move to upgrade the depth/competition at tackle. They released one tackle and replaced him with someone they feel is better. Plus, The Bills must clearly like Wesley. They’ve signed him to their practice squad twice, and now grabbed him off waivers.

At some point parting ways with future draft picks for established veterans isn't a bad idea, IMO..... especially when you need to see results on the field. From what I read on PFT today, Randolph is in neogtiations with the Vikes on a longer term spread the payment out deal, although it said they are still far apart and may not actually reach a deal, the Vikes may not be actively shopping him until the talks fall through.

brianthomas Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Deane from his pre draft reports is an athletic TE who was pretty productive his senior year at Western Kentucky, 44 catches for 530 yards & 6 tds. Worth a shot imo. Here's another pre draft scouting report: Edited May 23, 2019 by brianthomas

Hopefully the rooks can get up to speed quickly. I think you're correct. I saw where it is being reported that Rudolf was offered a contract extension from the Vikings, thus taking him out of play. They'll keep Lee Smith to have a veteran influence to help the young guys and be the main in-line TE. Croom may be the biggest beneficiary of this whole drama.

Hopefully the rooks can get up to speed quickly. This makes no sense to me. Along with the fact that they just signed Lee Smith to a three year contract, adding another TE to the mix makes me suspect that they aren't fine rolling with Knox, Sweeney, and Croom. Would McD expect Sweeney to be more than PS candidate? At the very least, I certainly wouldn't put Sweeney above Knox, Croom, or Smith.
