Bills Sign former Titan OT/OG David Quessenberry

[BrainwashedBillsFan]

Better depth than Cody Ford for sure, plus he can play a few positions. Nice signing. Now let’s get a vet Cb

My Projected Starters

 

LT - Dawkins

LG - Saffold

C - Morse

RG - Bates

RT - Brown

 

With the rest battling for 3/4 spots.  I think this signing does signal Dueces to Ford now IMO is on the outside looking in going into Camp

I imagine the line will be improved but still have its fair share of struggles over the course of the season… just gotta hope Josh can keep masking those issues.

I am hoping for a Starting OL to be in place week 1.  Not having to constantly tinker with it until week 10 like previous years.  Get some continuity

We didn't take their RB...

A prelude to pick 25?🤔

lol, I'm sure they have their opinion on RB at 25 well before they picked up this guy on a 1 Year Special.

 

But RB certainly possible.

It’s actually a great story, he fought cancer and won. I’m sure every year, every day, is a special day for him. 

[Peace Frog]

McBeane is giving Kromer something to work with.  Excellent!

How do you get a 80 in PFF buit give up 11 sacks

Agree. That's insane

At the very least, I'd think he'd be an upgrade over Hart as depth. Either way, I'm hoping Doyle takes a step forward this year. 

 

I want him to spend time working out with TEs  (TE University).  A jumbo TE who can block is good resource.

[McDeerInTheHeadlights]

Much props to this gentleman for winning the most important fight of his life.

 

We lacked (and still do) numbers along the OL and his versatility is a much coveted asset by this regime.

[Yantha]

Boom.  Love this signing.  OT just got a little stronger.

[Ethan in Cleveland]

Seems like a good signing. Insurance policy if Brown regresses or they can not find an OT/OG they like in the draft.  Likely will end Ford's career in Buffalo.  If they can afford it I would keep Ford at least to the end of camp and see what he does with Kromer.  But in the end he looks like a bust. Maybe they can get a 6th or 7rth round pick if he looks adequate in training camp/pre-season game.  

 

With this signing, I still think they may take an OL in the top four rounds but now I'm thinking they take four of these 5 positions - CB first round and then in no particular order - WR, LB, S, NT.

I love that Bills sign guys with tons of experience and have them all battle it out in camp, but I'd love a few studs on the O line.

 

Dawkins/Morse are solid- above average, the rest. Meh, hope they do alright 

 

I Hear You.

 

I'm also seeing a theme here, where it seems as though we're picking up FA OL who are notable run-blockers and counting on what?   The RB?  The TE?  Josh's feet?  for pass protection.

 

Although to be fair, a legitimate fear of the run game will improve the pass protection as well.

[Back2Buff]

Nothing against this guy, but hope he doesn't see the field.

 

Hopefully Brown and Doyle are better and healthier. 

 

Still would take an OG/OT hybrid very early in draft.

Tanny holding ball too long?  

[todd]

Rooting for him. It's unreal he's coming back after what he's been though. Cancer and treatments do unreal things to your body. The fact that he recovered his strenght at a pro athlete level after going through that is unreal. I know first-hand. Well, not the pro-athlete part, but the treatment part. 😃

the last point often gets overlooked.  If there is a legit run game and fear of it, the WRs will get open quicker, allowing Josh to get rid of the ball faster.  Plus, some of the OL come from run-centric offenses.  Perhaps Queensberry is a good pass blocker?

I believe he is a cancer survivor who took a few years off to beat it. Great to see! Whisking him the best…

 

Can he also play guard? Position flexibility? 

[GreggTX]

He's a backup at best, but still better than either Bates or Brown. Still, we need big upgrades at RG and RT.
