SCBills Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Spain should be re-signed... Only wrench thrown in that mix is what to do with Cody Ford. He was eh at RT, projected as a very good guard prospect. Rookie OL usually make a big jump in their second year. Does Ford make that jump at RT? I’d almost feel more comfortable with a combination of two vets in Nsehke/Waddle out there. However, where does Ford play? He’s not as good, yet, as Spain or Feliciano, and Long provides G/C flex as depth.
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I’d want Spain back, the issue is that if everyone feels like Ford is a guard...then one of these guard spots needs to be open. If I know anything about McDermott, he’s going to play the guys he drafted. That’s just what’s going to happen. So if Ford is going to play, then I want him to play the position he’s best at. That probably means : no Spain unfortunately

What do you like about him? Tackle depth or is there more? I think Waddle is a decent depth guy and he did start his first few years when our online coach was in Detroit. To me he's a low cost guy who could likely contribute but wouldn't count on him to start.

We must retain that consistency and build on it, not play Mastermind with it. That was my logic in retaining Spain, who did perform well! Get a mauling back to go behind a mauling line and set up a young QB who is still is growing. Would like to see fewer QB sneaks while using the threat of one to set up other plays. 2

I think he’s valuable depth for us, but my real liking for him is that he seems to have really bought into the culture and bills mafia. His vet presence on the line is valuable, but I don’t think it’s a huge issue if we lose him.

I think we need to add some speed at the position as to me Motor is a mauler.
thebandit27 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 There are zero must-sign players on that list. I’d like to have Spain back, but not at premium guard money since you could move Ford to LG, where he played at Oklahoma for 2 full seasons. Shaq and Jordan are going to get PAID. I’m actually more concerned about LB depth than anything else, and I’d like to get KJ back at a $6M-$7M per year gap deal if he’d take it. 1

The speed guy needs to have good to great hands. Plus, I still want a mauler. Edited January 5, 2020 by Buffalo Boy 1

I don’t know that they need any archetype specifically, but a one-cut/downhill guy that can run stretch plays and set Allen up for PA would be great. 1

Barring the Ty Nys injury, I think they could have been leaning that way His feet are just too heavy to hold up consistently at RT IMO
MJS Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I'd resign Spain and Kevin Johnson. I think Phillips will get more money than he is worth. I'd resign Lawson if we can get him to sign a reasonable deal. The rest are replaceable, so sign them if you don't think you can get more value in free agency. Do not bring back Gore. 1

DuckyBoys Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 only one I want to have back 100% is Spain No way I'm investing heavy into Shaq Lawson or Jordan Phillips . Only the Bills believed in Phillips so maybe he stays on a reasonable contract I worry we'll overpay to keep "process" guys I want DiMarco, Gore, Foster, Kroft. gone asap. 1
