Did not know about knees,  then i would see if we can sign him for much less

 

The bone on bone knee condition that he has that is the main reason his production has dropped every year and a major reason as to why he was released? Yeah, it's a major deal.

If Dobbins is there when the Bills pick you would have a hard time finding a player who would have more impact than him. 

Warming up very quickly to a running back in the 2nd

Claypool is my 2nd round crush right now

Bills should do everything they can to sign Gurley,  he is the star player this team needs.  Has both speed and power,  worth dropping Smith & Murphy which saves us 10 mill and then add another 6-7 million.

 

End of the day Sean wants to run the ball and this guy is a true workhorse back,  your not getting that from Singeltary who is not fast or big

 Yeah speed, power and one (possibly two) arthritic knees. Guess you left that part out. Maybe you forgot.

I dont hate the player....just the reasoning....and maybe the contract depending what it ends up being

 

We should not be looking to upgrade from Devin S.    Devin is special and needs to play.  We need a back that can not fall on his face in the few carries they are gonna get (and hopefully still has some tread left?)

 

Gore fell of BADLY at the end of last year.....we should not repeat that

 

Did he fall off badly or did he only get carries in short yardage situations after Singletary came back where the Bills were amongst the worst in the NFL at blocking

We already have three Clay Mathews in Murphy Hughes and Maddison. He is exactly what we don't need. Another veteran, somewhat washed up, somewhat still productive DE. Not a bad thing to have but we have enough of them. 

 

We need some youth at the position. I'm all for taking one in Rd 2. Young guy with potential is what we need.

This is JMO....but Frank Gore and his burst fell of BADLY from about he 3/4 point of the season....and I am not even upset that we brought him in as he def served a purpose as a mentor and keeping the running game afloat while Devin was finding his footing/getting over an injry.

 

But I feel that the bills made a big mistake in not activing Yeldon and giving him burn......

Matthews is old and hurt and Gurley is hurt even more.  We already signed three defensive linemen and we’ll probably cut Murphy and have Harrison Phillips coming back along with Star and Hughes.

 

we’ll get a RB on the cheap in the mid rounds in the draft.

You have said this before......WHY is WR not happening when we have a bunch of smurfs at WR?

 

Size at WR was sorely missed last year.

It will happen just not on day 2.

I am loving getting one of the top backs in the second. Clyde Edwards with Singletary would by a dynamic backfield. 
Claypool is another interesting name. Big body wide out. 
We might see a CB taken in the second or third. 

I don’t think we need a vet leader in any of the defensive position rooms. Klein was brought in as the Lorax replacement for LB. A few other guys have been brought in for ST roles. I don’t see a need for Matthews.

Based on what? 8 sacks in 13 games doesn't scream done to me.

So you make a post about a guy but don't know am issue that has been talked about a million times... 

 

Ok so just to be sure never listen to you talk about anyone in the future b.c you don't really know much about a player other than a name you know.

Maybe not. His sacks were good, the rest of his game not so good. 34 years old, he might still be useful as a pass rush specialist I guess. Wouldn't surprise me if he retires though.

You want to spend $17M on a running back? Doesn't he have bad knees?

I guess he is a Gurley man.

Can we do all that and bring in Clay Mathews? Or are we switching lanes here?

Clay or Gurley? I'm confused on which thread I'm on.

If we didn’t sign Klein it would make some sense as Clay could replace Lorax as the combo off ball sam/rush end. But I think that ship has sailed. I’m guessing he goes to a 3-4 team, maybe the Bucs and goes to play with Brady. I’d say Bucs, Raiders, Cardinals or Falcons. Gruden loves this guy.
