Only if you think resign and re-sign are synonyms, which they are not.  I am for resigning Ed Oliver.  More clear?

 

If we want to get all semantical and punctuational here, only the employee can resign, the employer terminates.

Ed Oliver, Knox, and Edmunds probably shouldn’t be re-signed.

 
Already signed 1. Poyer is much more important. Keep Jordan Phillips for half the price of Oliver.

Poyer over Edmunds shows you don't understand our D.  Draft a safety and bring back Edmunds.

This sums up your entire post and reminds us how little you know. 

Tyrod fooled a lot of fans into thinking he was good bc they had never watched a real QB. Same thing here, play next to Star and you look like one for simply not sucking.

 

Oliver is an average rotational player.

They threw the ball quick on all but like 3 throws.  No D line is getting there that quick. 

But what they were not able to do is take away the first read which this team has done before against other opponents.  The Jets had a good gameplan they were able to execute.

Some items for all the wags who have been telling us how awful he is:

 

> Ed Oliver not only led all DLinemen in tackles yesterday, he had twice as many as anybody else up front. 

     - He had more tackles than all the other DT's on the roster combined

      - The fumble that Epenesa recovered would never have happened without Oliver's play so he also had a hand in a turnover

     -  He also had the hustle play of the day when he sprinted 25 yards downfield on the opposite sideline and saved a 70+ yard TD

Going into yesterday Ed Oliver led all Bills DT's in QB hits despite missing 3 1/2 games with injury

He's also had multiple sacks taken away due to penalties on other players

 

 

Just because you don't "notice him" or some talking head fails to mention him, doesn't mean he sucks. It means that if you can't see what he's doing then you don't know what you're looking for. Some folks ought to  consider practicing some humility instead of spouting off about things that they don't understand.

Good post.  I was disappointed because the defensive line has not had a good past 2 games against the run and I didn't notice Oliver making much of a difference (and yes, I didn't hear his "name called" by the TV announcers).  I was at the GB game and also didn't see/hear much from Oliver.  He was great in LA (I was at that one too) before he hurt his ankle and then he was out for a few weeks.  He had a great season last year.

 

It's good to see some positive information and another viewpoint.  I was in the "Oliver isn't doing much category."  I'm now more in the "keep an open mind" category.  Let's hope his name is called a lot next week.  I recall in past seasons (maybe last year) the Bills run-D having a couple of bad games and the team making some adjustments.  They were getting AJ Klein on the field, who played well.  Hopefully, they can insert another LB who can help (given that Klein is no longer on the roster), and maybe Milano will be back too.  If the run-D is solidified, that will take some of the negative attention off of the interior d-linemen like Oliver.

Knox has been blocking and for whatever reason the coaches/JA forget we have receiving options beyond Diggs/Davis.

Half this board demands he's the second coming of Warren Sapp. He's a damn good lineman who draws double teams all the time.
