Yeah, you think the Bils would announce each signing on Twitter, knowing how ravished their fan base is for info. Right now, it's hit or miss scouring the web for info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a matter of time before this future Bill and Giant makes his way here. I can already picture him bouncing off running backs 8 yards down the field.

I keep seeing conflicting reports on Woo so I added him as unconfirmed. Henderson added to the signed list Woo? Maybe he got stuck in the 36 chambers in Shaolin.

I think I remember something like that in the past. It's been a bit like college recruiting too. Sometimes they have handshake deals with a player and then he backs out and signs elsewhere. Until you get them on the dotted line they can change course and not even tell you. So they likely just don't want egg on their face even though they know the times have changed and people demand that info now. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 My initial impression is that Minnesota might have had the best UDFA haul so far. Their organization gets great marks with players in almost all aspects so gotta' believe that plays a big role in their recruiting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I wanted to this year. But with work right now I didn’t have the time to stay on top of it. So I would have done my biggest pet peeve with these type thread during UDFA. Sorry all this year my offseason primers and stuff I normally do even in our Mocks I just didn’t have the free time with work. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warriorspikes51 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 (edited) Florida LT Richard Gouraige should be given a look at RT next to his buddy O’Cyrus. The two could anchor the right side for a long time. https://www.si.com/college/florida/football/florida-gators-buffalo-bills-signing-richard-gouraige-udfa-nfl-draft In Gouraige, Buffalo receives a versatile and uber-experienced offensive lineman who could reasonably offer depth at several positions if he makes the team this fall. Gouraige, 24, made 42 starts during his college career — 25 at left tackle and 17 at left guard — and allowed just five career sacks across 1,678 pass-blocking snaps with no more than two given up in a single season, according to Pro Football Focus. The near-6-foot-5, 306-pound Gouraige also produced the best single-season run-blocking grade of his career in 2022 at 65.7 out of 100, per PFF. He earned an invitation to the Senior Bowl and NFL Combine as a result of his solid play and longevity in the SEC. A product of Tampa (Fla.) Cambridge Christian, Gouraige opted for Florida over offers from Ole Miss, Clemson, North Carolina, FSU and Alabama, among others, in the recruiting class of 2018. I suspect he would have been drafted if this wasn’t put out…. Edited April 30, 2023 by Warriorspikes51 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly not sure he’ll stick at tackle. He’s another guy that may need to move inside in the pros, but at least would add some versatility given his experience. Could develop into a contributor, but I think it’s wishful thinking to imagine him starting for the Bills this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've seen on Richard Gouraige (not much besides his appearances in the Florida OL/Offense vs Georgia Defense I found while looking for O'Cyrus footage) I have extracted from my observations that he is NOT A RUN BLOCKER. In fact, whenever he is spotted in the open field he looks like a "fish-out-of-water". Although he does make up for this with his pretty mean kick-out and he is a solid pass blocker.

SCBills Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 What on earth is a “pain tolerance test”? Just casually mentioned that like we’re all supposed to be oh, ok.. sure, makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
