JerseyBills Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 For ppl knocking his off grades Check out The Chiefs new T grades 37 in pass pro and 59 in run blocking Quote

Nothing to get excited about. Meanwhile, Edmonds to the Bears for 4 years $95M.. $50M guaranteed..... I guess too expensive for the Bills? Wow, what a huge overpay. Quote

mjt328 Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Pretty typical move for Brandon Beane on the O-Line. Average player with some starting experience. Similar to guys like Ty Nsekhe and David Quessenberry, who really never worked out. Hope he's an upgrade on the interior, but don't cross your fingers. 1 Quote

Those are the financials from what I’ve seen 2 minutes ago, The Jokeman said: Some NFL teams base contracts on PFF. not disagreeing with you, but which teams or do you have a link that supports this? They “base their contract off of pff”? Or they look at the pff numbers and sometimes take them into consideration Quote
OZBILLS Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 He'll be off the field a lot more since our D is garbage. I like it Quote

At least he doesn't commit penalties. The guy started the season with a bad ankle and was used in multiple positions on an injury riddled Cowboy line last year. I think Bills fans should wait at least until camp to trash him. LOL. His PFF numbers in 2021 were better btw. Quote

Similar to guys like Ty Nsekhe and David Quessenberry, who really never worked out. Hope he's an upgrade on the interior, but don't cross your fingers. Totally different imo. This guy is 25 years old, he is barely a year older than guys like Andrew Vorhees and Cody Mauch and has 4 years of experience under his belt. He started as a freshmen at PSU. The upside is still there. Those other guys were old depth veterans. 3 2 Quote
BarleyNY Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Correct position, but I don’t know about the specific player and contract. Seems like we could’ve done better at that price. At least his arrow is probably pointing up, unlike Saffold who was done a year before we signed him. Nothing to do now but hope for the best and see what he’s got. 2 minutes ago, ColoradoBills said: The guy started the season with a bad ankle and was used in multiple positions on an injury riddled Cowboy line last year.

I for one am not sold on Bates moving to C. He's capable as a backup but I don't think he is a starter. If McGovern has a better shot at the C next year (I think it's Morse's last season) that could be an option. I still think a college RT who can move to RG may be the pick that is smart this year. 1 1 Quote
StHustle Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Unbelievable it’s two Conner McGovern’s in the world, let alone in the NFL at the same time and both playing OLine 🤯 2 Quote

There are 64 starting guards, or is this out of one specific set of guards? Also he played a few spots due to injuries last year Quote

It’s the run game that needs the most improvement though. Quote
