NewEra Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 42 minutes ago, HIT BY SPIKES said: GOD bless you and your openness. I think Ruben Brown was above average but certainly not elite as his 9 Pro Bowl appearances would suggest. Ruben's high draft status (14th overall) for a Guard got him the annual Pro Bowl nomination rather than his play. Do you think Ruben belongs in the Hall of Fame? No one is suggesting Dawkins is elite…. Yet you were the one comparing him to brown. You’re the one that said he’s “he really is nothing more than an average NFL LT”. But he is something more. Or is there really nothing in between an elite LT and an average LT? I’ll answer that. There is something in between and Dion is just that. No, I didn’t think Brown was elite. No, I don’t think brown is a worthy of the HoF. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's paid exactly what he's worth. My only concern with him will always be keeping his fat butt in shape. Hey we've already had our yearly Dion is fat thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's paid exactly what he's worth. My only concern with him will always be keeping his fat butt in shape. Yep. He's been a very serviceable piece to the O-line for many years now. I don't believe he's elite at the position... Josh does help mask a lot of deficiencies on the O-line across the board. I am VERY worried that his play is going to fall off a cliff at some point, which would be a huge problem. I think we kind of take this position for granted, but when age catches up with him and he loses a step (or goes down with an injury), we're in trouble there. We already need the chipping back/TE or extra blocker on the right side with turnstile Brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChronicAndKnuckles Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) Dion Dawkins is like the ambassador of the Bills. This guy is popping up all over the place Edited August 17, 2023 by ChronicAndKnuckles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides that, anyone who knows football can clearly see his total body of work shows he's above average. Elite? No. But definitely better than average. Not hating on Dion Dawkins, but Pro Bowl for linemen has been a joke for a long time. Roger Saffold made the Pro Bowl last year. He also made it the previous year when he was horrible for the Titans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
