Thrivefourfive Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) Awesome! I’m not ready to break down the 18min break down at the moment, but I love the positive takeaways from our rook guard. I’m shyly pumped the Bills May have hit on picks 1-3, 5 in this draft. Edited August 20, 2023 by Thrivefourfive 4 Quote

KingBoots8 Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 I honestly don’t know how he fell to 59, but I’m glad we were able to capitalize on that and bring him in. I was thinking he’d go around late 30s - early 40s. My other favorite guard out of this years class was Steve Avila (who can play anywhere in the middle of the OL). He’s gonna be a star if he shows up on gameday when it matters. I actually think we have a solid foundation for the middle of the OL right now. Tackle is where things are getting messy - Dawkins underperformed and Brown needs to make some major improvements quickly to avoid losing his job. McGovern, Morse, and Torrence are going to do well. I think we let Morse walk next year and insert Bates into the staring Center position and it won’t be a major downgrade. A major investment is needed to keep Josh upright- I’d prefer a known commodity if we can afford it, but we need to draft a Tackle next year early. MLB is the other major position of need but I’d rather get the line figured out first. Best way to win is to score more points, and the best way to do that is to get Josh all the time he needs. Hopefully we get it sorted out and both Dawkins and Brown step up their game. I could see maybe even getting a LT upgrade and moving Dawkins back to RT for a year if needed. 1 Quote
Einstein Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 (edited) 0:50 into the video you can see Spencer Brown get absolutely obliterated by a linebacker. But yes, Torrence played well. I am excited about him. He is the first piece in rebuilding this o-line. We will need a new Center, RT and LT in the next year or two. Edited August 20, 2023 by Einstein 3 1 1 Quote

He jumped Dallas who was salivating at the chance of getting him. Did you see their draft room when we got him? They looked dejected and upset as hell. 2 2 Quote
Thrivefourfive Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 5 minutes ago, Doc said: Might have also hit on 4 if that idiot Beane didn't trade up for Kincaid... So he DID hit on R4! Beautiful. 1 Quote
HIT BY SPIKES Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 2 minutes ago, Einstein said: 0:50 into the video you can see Spencer Brown get absolutely obliterated by a linebacker. A humongous beast of a right tackle that gets taken out by a man much smaller. But yes, Torrence played well. I am excited about him. He is the first piece in rebuilding this o-line. We will need a new Center, RT and LT in the next year or two. Spencer and Doyle will no longer be on our roster next year. Just darts thrown at the OL Board by Beane. Aim higher. Think round one and two. 2 Quote

Don Otreply Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Beane needs to do this again pretty much every off season for the next few years, wether thru the draft, trade or FA, this line needs a minimum of three more Torrence (sp) level O-linemen. 3 Quote
Shaw66 Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 If you watch the video, forget about Torrence, and watch McGovern and Edwards. They're just as good. Really solid interior line blocking, with Morse or Bates at center. 6 2 1 Quote
BullBuchanan Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 there's no doubt he did very well, but it seems he has a default tendency to grab to opponents pads. I wonder if that's going to be a problem. Quote
machine gun kelly Posted August 20, 2023 Posted August 20, 2023 Thanks Pete for the video. He looks like the real deal to me, but again it’s PS. We’ll see when the real games happen. 1 Quote

Surprising that you pick a play where the guys plant for isn't down to say he stinks.🙄 Sincerely watch that play and see his left foot slips when engaging with the LB. I don't care how much you weigh, even a sumo wrestler ain't staying up when one foot slips. Quote

He's typically tougher than that. 1 Quote
