The Bills need to acquire an enforcer on defense.

[GunnerBill]

There was a guy the Jags tried to designate as "offensive weapon" on the roster a few years back and the NFL said "err that's not a position fellas, try again." I presume the same applies to "Enforcer".

Where is that office linebacker dude when you need him

Terry Tate!!!! lol

 

Read recently that Rob Ryan has a collection of Josh Allen rookie cards... maybe he'd play on the D for a few autographs lol

[Pete]

Carwell Gardner!

[ALLEN1QB]

I hope they can find one that works for peanuts because that's all we have

[Greg S]

We just acquired our game changer on defense with Von Miller. No need for an enforcer. What is this 1970's 1980's NHL?

It doesn’t matter how but before the season begins I would really like to see the Bills acquire a tough guy, an enforcer of some sort on defense. Jerry Hughes was almost that guy a couple of years back but he mellowed out a bit in the last couple of years. He committed too many costly penalties before and now he isn’t even on the team as of right now.
 

Not to pound a tired drum but the position that would be the best to have a tough guy at would be the MLB. As we all have realized for quite some time is Edmunds is not that guy. Even if it isn’t at that position I would still like to see that type of player somewheres on the defense. Our most physical players on the team right now imo is our Tackles. Dawkins and Brown will take care of Josh but we don’t have a very physical defense and I think that could be the missing aspect for this team to get to the next level. Last night I was thinking of Jack Lambert against the Cowboys when one of their guys were messing with the Steelers’ PK and Lambert just slammed the guy to the ground. THAT’S the kind of mentality that I would like for the Bills’ to possess. I wonder if there’s that kind of player in the draft that we could get.

What decade are you currently living in?

Maybe they need a 'Conrad Dobler' type.  Play with soiled pants, flatulence at will, biting opponents?  Overt violence usually results in penalties against your team, although in a 'Gronkowski level incident', it is welcomed.  How about finding the fan that beaned Fournette with the beer can a few years back?  If I remember correctly, McDermott was down there ready to open a can of 'whupass' on Lennie.

Does he needs to be on the field ??

Need athletes and speed on defense over the mythical enforcer it is a different NFL. 

[Bferra13]

The defense plays Jauron ball and that's what I dislike. Wish they were a bit more aggressive. But that's the game they want to play I suppose. Don't need an enforcer lol.

[BuffaloRebound]

Problem is a lot of these enforcer types get abused in the passing game and they also can’t play that way for very long if they want any longevity.  One guy I loved when he was on the Bucs was Jordan Whitehead.  Dude was a heat seaking missile that brought a physicality to that defense.  But do these guys continue to play that way into their 2nd contract? Milano and Poyer have played that way in spurts but seems like they all end up making business decisions now and then.

Darryl Talley is 62 years old. That won't work. 😁

Maybe the OP is hoping to get a 2 down "thumper" that also wears one of those neck collars

You mean a guy who can get us a bunch of personal fouls for 15 yards like JERRY did over and over again when he was young.

 

pass.  Not needed in this nfl.  It’s more of a liability at this point.  It’s not

like Von Miller is a cream puff nor Milano.  Poyer is a tough dude as well.  We don’t need a cheap shot guy.

 

Yes....like Leonard Smith and his timely late hit penalties...

[Dopey]

Sneaky way to try to get an Edmunds bashing thread going.
