Goin Breakdown Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 4 hours ago, Beck Water said: Brown was also later seen riding his e-bike or scooter to the dining hall - though I suppose a guy with a bad back can manage that The Bills have Brandon Shell on the roster. Shell has started 72 games at RT in the NFL Agree on Quessenbery, didn't like what I saw in his 3 starts last year, but, he has started 26 career games, most I believe at RT Both of these guys would be a better alternative to moving a strictly-guard OLman to RT or (for goodness sake) trying to pull Lee Smith, a TE and 6th lineman, out of retirement for a primary OL role (I know that's not your suggestion but I read it right here) Some sort of electric device - golf scooter I think actually. Haha I know. Hoverboard sounds better though. Imagine that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the same thing with WR. The Bills and Josh Allen love Spencer Brown and Gabe Davis. This not about negligence. This is a scouting issue. It’s more about talent evaluation. I also believe both players are propped up by their all pro QB. Edited August 4, 2023 by Buffalo_Stampede 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we will see what ol are cut just before season starts. Might find a stopgap if we need one then to get thru the season. With luck we'll be picking last in first round next year and maybe a good ot prospect falls to us at that pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown lighting defenders up 10 yards down field. it’s always easy to remember the bad things. The game is complimentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not the reason we lost to Cincy, Minny, NJJ, or Miami. That was a good draft pick. Nothing wrong with our scouting. Even teams like KC make mistakes.

HOUSE Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 1 hour ago, Big Turk said: Because some team is going to be lining up to trade for a guy who literally by himself dropped the Bills from a top 10 NFL lines in metrics to 26th, and has a bad back on top of that? Where do people come up with this kind of stuff? Nobody said Spencer Brown was worth squat, he is completley un tradable, not even future considerations. Doesn't mean you can't go out and find a replacement off some other teams roster. This is a Superbowl contender, you can't just sign some scrub 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rigotz Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 This thread has it all! - Panic over our RT being out for the season because his back was sore after practice. - Multiple posters saying we're in for a long season if Quessenberry is the starting RT in his place. (He's not, we signed Brandon Shell and he's taking all the 2nd team reps at RT) - Suggestion that we should sign a street free agent Tight End to be the RT. - Suggestion that we should bring a guy out of retirement to start at RT. You guys are absolutely killin it. Keep up the good work! 👏👏👏 1 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxum Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) 9 hours ago, BillsShredder83 said: The Lee Smith idea wasnt to offer him starting RT job lol but I think for starters we better make sure we have a block first TE on the roster to help out whoever is starting at RT.... not sure if we have that in Gilliam or Morris. They could sign Lee Smith to practice squad. Josh Allen said he learned a lot from Lee Smith when he was on roster. He probably is missing team at this point but his company "Triple F Elite Sports Training" seems to doing okay. Perhaps he as other instructors who can pick up the slack. 3 hours ago, Doc Brown said: Yeah. If they listened to people on here they’d have drafted busts like Metcalf and Humphries. And traded starting DE to Arizona Cardinals John Skelton. For every trade or draft pick which may have worked out there are many more idiot ideas.

That's something I don't understand about the whole best ability is available ility. Look at how great Gabe Davis has looked in camp. Why wouldn't he have sat longer with the high ankle sprain to let it heal more and allow him to be more explosive at the end of the year? They did the same thing playing him against the Chiefs in 2020 I believe and it really cost them as he should have been inactive. Allen should have been sat down for a week or two last year too...just because you can play doesn't mean you should, give the depth a chance and let players heal as much as possible so when they come back you're getting an effective player...I don't get it. Actually without going case to case, I believe the Bills are one of the teams that rush players back less often than the NFL norm. 4 hours ago, uticaclub said: Very negligent going into the season with this RT situation. Brandon Shell is a prototypical specimen. His uncle is a Hall of Famer at the same position. He's played 70 games in the NFL and started 61 of those. He's one of the best backup tackles in the NFL.
