We essentially traded Tenuta for this guy, I like him better as a developmental guy on the PS:

Another raw 6'6" lineman.  I guess they got a "type".

This is great, I thought Mancz was in the air somewhere.  

Let that ankle heal while he keeps the bike seat warm and in a few weeks, he swaps out with Van Roten.

 

like our own private ir.

Damn. Bills PS vs Pats starters, LFG

I'd go with the Bills if it wasn't for Mac Jones' dramatic improvement.

If that's what we're doing then I bow to McBeane - great move.

I live in a region of the country with way too many Scandinavian names, and Ryan Van Denmark is the most Scandinavian of them all. 

[Ethan in Cleveland]

I'm going to guess they put Stevenson on IR and elevate Austin to 53 when they are first able to do so.

[ColoradoBills]

Has to be a decent PS TE who wants to come to Buffalo.

With Morris and Sweeney agents should be tripping over themselves to get their guy here.

Pick a good one Brandon.

Wonder if Beane has any interest in signing Ihmir Smith Marsette WR who the Vikings just waived. Has speed and size.

Is he Scandinavian?

 

Or at least Northern European?

I like it.  Anybody that went to The Hun School has to be tough...

Rated #230 overall in '22 draft by Dane Brugler (The Athletic)       [Tenuta was raked #208]

 

230. Ryan Van Demark, OT, Connecticut (6-7, 307)  

Van Demark doesn’t labor in his pass slides and uses tight, independent hands to answer pass-rush moves and reset on the move. Though he achieves proper depth in his pass sets, his lower-body bend needs work to better anchor as a pass blocker or roll into contact in the run game. Overall, Van Demark must continue to develop his core strength and pad level concerns, but he has the quickness, handwork and intelligence to earn an NFL roster spot as a swing tackle.

Duke Johnson and Tavon Austin on the Bills practice squad is such a luxury. They can get plucked any time but having vets like that potentially available if needed is a nice situation to be in for Buffalo.

Agreed.

I love that they changed the practice squad rules so that vets can be included.

Having guys like Johnson, Austin, Mancz on the practice squad rules. Sturdy vet replacements in the event of injury.

Do you happen to know what part of the state that is?

I think Boettger did too.

They do a good job with OL at Iowa.

lol I’m laughing I assume this is sarcasm but the Hun School is a very high end prep school that’s like 65,000  a year to attend. 
 

Van DeMark is a high upside tackle as you can see by his RAS. I thought he was going to be drafted the year he came out but the Colts gave him big UDFA money. Thought round 5 or 6.  Think his upside is a swing Tackle that can play both sides. Definitely raw and will need development

I like Jordon Frank's but the Chiefs put him on the PS already. Used to be a WR-LB-TE

Smooth hands and quite an athlete

Sarcasm is hard in the NFL.
