A pitch count would not be surprise me.  Probably a good idea, in fact.

what we used to do . rotating lineman from down to downs. (that sound weird to you guys ? )
 

he is coming in for Winters right ?

I do think he will replace winters at RG. When ford returns he will go back to LG.

Isn't that a great question?

1) if Ford misses another game, LG may be the biggest need.  Boettger was NOT good from what I saw

2) Mongo at this point has most playing experience on the R and I believe would have least stress on his injury on the R side

3) on the other hand McDermott in his Monday presser stressed how "very intelligent" and "adaptable" Mongo is.  We saw this when Morse went out, he pretty seamlessly stepped over to center and played well.

 

So in response to your question: 🤷‍♂️

Agreed, but nothing about McD seems to say "rush" anything.  I think he is pretty calculating so I would assume Feliciano is good to go (hopefully)

 

This is no surprise.  Deadline was here they had to activate.

Hasnt had a live snap in forever, he's not just gonna get thrown in there full time, gotta get him slowly acclimated to game shape

 

And then he'll be crackin skulls...

Thanks for considering the  question.
I really have felt McDaboll love weekly match ups and want to do what traditionally defenses have done.
Having multi skilled and Available players on all 3 sides of the ball allows some creativity from week to week.

 

McD  used to chat that up early on. multi functional using match ups to win games

I like Ike.btw

[WideNine]

We may have to be careful what we wish for... you want more attitude on your o-line? You get it with Feliciano.

 

He will straight up tackle a d-lineman rather than give up a free shot on his QB.

 

I am ok with this philosophy, why get called for a ticky-tacky hold while letting your QB get planted when you can just double-down and plant the guy rushing? 

 

 

Feliciano was the only offensive lineman on the team last year to be assessed both an unnecessary roughness, and unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

 

I think offensive lines need at least one or two players that have some dog in them. Hope he gets some reps to work himself back jnto game shape.

Ike was ok ... almost good in run blocking, but boy was he on his heels in pass block.  

Most of josh’s scrambles started with Ike

There’s a good chance he doesn’t suit up for a couple games.... Maybe AZ in 3 weeks.... but why not wit till after the bye week. That gives him 5 weeks to prepare, get in game shape

Because Boettger is going to play in the meantime and he didn't look good at all vs the Jets.

[Call_Of_Ktulu]

I would put him at LG so we can have one side of the O-line that operates and functions normally. Just tell whatever waste of space is at RG to hold when they get beat.

This. I expect to see a rotation with Feliciano and Winters for the next couple games at RG. Not sure Winters can also play LG. Once Feliciano is back into game shape, he goes RG about the same time Ford is back at LG. In a perfect world the Oline is hitting its stride just about mid December, barring any injuries!

It's really a snap count. But I get your point..

That's overall how I'm leaning, but we'll see how the Bills coaches see it.

The metrics from last year say that Feliciano should be an upgrade in the run blocking, but as a pass blocker he's a major liability and was terrible at times last year especially against some of the better teams we faced, including the Ravens which was probably his worst game of the season.

 

What metrics are these, Grasshopper?  How about a linky? 

I have a tendency to be skeptical of OL metrics as it's very difficult for the observer to tell what the assignment is and therefore if there's a mess-up, who failed?

But some are better than others.

I guarantee he's an upgrade over Boettger or Winters when it comes to pass blocking no matter which metrics you cite.

Probably will help that he’ll be next to a good right tackle.

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Can he play MLB? 

[TheFunPolice]

One of my favorite Bills!

 

Good news!
