Joe Mama Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Who got excited about LorAx signing a few years ago? His journey is similar -- you never know. 2
Andrew Son Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 We definitely have a type with regards to our mid to low level FA acquisitions- guys with extensive playing experience. 1

Expand Yeah was amazing how he turned out at LB after the other teams and positions he played. I remember I was "meh" back then when Bills signed him. I was pleasantly surprised though. But yeah, would be wonderful if they could get another player like him. I have my doubts though.

He is a weak link and must up his game this coming season. Everyone likes to say he is young. Well he is going into his 4th season. Time to man up or go play another sport. Expand Let's check in next year on this. Many experts coaches and players disagree with you on this. Pro Bowl may be overrated, but it's usually that players get in on reputation, but in this case, what reputation? Maybe they're seeing something you don't. He was the captain and middle linebacker on a Top 3 defense just two years ago. Maybe we should take into account that last year was a very weird season plus he was playing hurt for most of it. Also, dude was playing with one arm yet people here were calling him soft. 2

He can be in his 4th NFL season and still be young... then again I don’t get off by telling 23 year olds they need to man up on message boards. 1

John from Riverside Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 The more time goes on....the more I think we are drafting a corner. Hard to complain about this as a depth signing. 1
Matt_In_NH Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Hopefully he can play special teams............

Expand just because he didn't produce stats mean he doesn't exist. An example is on Special Teams, he could have blocked someone which allowed a teammate to tackle a guy etc. Edited March 31, 2021 by The Jokeman

Nextmanup Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 He's a solid journeyman depth player kind of signing with decent coverage skills.

Expand He's looks kind of small, not very fast, like he doesn't hit very hard and a lot of his tackles were down the field for first downs. If I were him I'd try to have that one taken down, but what do I know? I trust Beane, so I'm glad they signed a guy they liked. These one year contracts can always be camp cuts if it doesn't work out. Edit: I think it's amazing that you can instantly find video on just about any player at any time. It makes FA signings so much more interesting. Edited March 31, 2021 by Gene Frenkle 1

Also, dude was playing with one arm yet people here were calling him soft. Expand You make some good points especially the one arm thing... However, I just have not seen him dominate a whole lot over his 3 seasons. I was hoping w all the hype on him being this young phenom being drafted at age 20, that he would turn into a Bobby Wagner type player who just knocks the stuffing out of guys. I love the Bills and want every player to play lights out. I hope Edmunds can become that this season. 1

But his PFF grade is kinda poor. So he reacts late but recovers decently and tackles? Sounds like Edmunds lite:) I like, no love the signing! - need guys like him to cover Kelce!! Expand He just jumps on the pile after the whistle like Edmunds? 1 1
