Buffalo716 Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) After a breakthrough campaign last season Matt Milano broke his leg and you haven't heard much about him The WILL linebacker was arguably our defensive MVP and playing at a pro bowl level before the injury Milano while undersized has everything you want in a WILL. He can run with TEs in man, he has good ball skills, great instincts and awareness... And he hits like he's 245 pounds. He is a heat seeking missile Besides striking gold on this late round pick I expect Milano to have a tremendous year next year and be our Defensive MVP 3rd year in the system and in an NFL strength and conditioning program and I think we are going to see a man possessed Don't sleep on Matt Milano this year because I bet he will be wrecking gameplans Edited July 1, 2019 by Buffalo716 4 1
LSHMEAB Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 I don't disagree with your assessment of Milano, but I've heard plenty. Not quite sure where "forgotten" comes from. 2
Warcodered Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 I mean I'm excited for what he's going to do this year too but I mean who forgot about him? He's mentioned all the time. 3
blacklabel Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 But, I've read on this very board that the linebackers are suspect and only Edmunds *maybe* has a chance to be marginally mediocre someday. Meanwhile, the DL isn't even cut out to rush a JV QB. It's all true. Cause I read it here. 4

After we drafted Oliver I feel like it's been Oliver, Tremaine , Jerry, Micah and Poyer talk mostly as our studs I really don't see much talk about Milano though I'm sure he comes up 1
Stank_Nasty Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 (edited) I just saw a PFF graphic the other day that stated he only allowed a 67 passer rating on throws that went at him. That was good for the lowest rating of ANY off the ball LB in the NFL with at least 300 snaps. Impressive stuff! Edited June 30, 2019 by Stank_Nasty 2 1 1

eball Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 The Bills' D is loaded if Oliver comes as advertised and Murphy is fully recovered from his ACL. Excellent starters, good depth...Tremaine in his 2nd year and perhaps the best secondary in the league, top to bottom. I loved reading recently that McD's focus for this defense is increasing the "physicality" of their play. I want to see this defense punish opposing offenses. Milano hasn't been overlooked by anyone that I've seen and he could garner Pro Bowl attention this year. I know people are somewhat worried about the pass rush and lack of a true threat outside of Hughes, but I think the Bills are going rely on getting interior pressure from Oliver and also do a good bit of blitzing with the LBs and DBs. There are some "ifs" with respect to everything panning out, as there always are, but this unit looks like it should be one of the league's best. 2
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 No one is sleeping on him. We all watched the defense struggle to replace him while out hurt. It’ll be good to see him back out there. 1
Mc1320 Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 I think that would be very uncomfortable for Matt if you tried to sleep on him Buffalo716 - so I agree, don’t sleep on him. 4
Simon Says Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 Seriously,this post is a waste of time. We ALL know about Milano and I am sick of the term "dont sleep on". As if YOU discovered him...Try to have an original take

Lmao Somebody obviously pissed in your Cheerios and ruined your day Where did I EVER SAY I discovered him. I think he will be a pro browler so made a thread about him. You just sound grumpy FACT ITS A BILLS FORUM Edited June 30, 2019 by Buffalo716 2
ghostwriter Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 It's all going to be about Edmunds this year. But I wouldn't want to sleep on Milano. Edmunds seems way more dreamier anyway. Watching the wind flow through his hair as he makes a tackle, MAJESTIC. 1

Mr. WEO Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 It's hard to sleep on Matt Milano when there are so many threads touting him..... 1 1

This one is legit given the return from injury unknown for Milano. Let’s lighten up a bit. 2

3rdnlng Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 Which Milano are we talking about? One isn't my type and the other one has sworn off sex. 1

H2o Posted June 30, 2019 Posted June 30, 2019 I don't think anyone here has "slept" on Milano since like week 5 of his rookie year. You could see the athleticism and his fit in this defense.
