Nick Vigil...LB Option?

[Wizard]

I was looking at roster cuts. Nick Vigil intrigues me. He is about 240 lbs and has played both outside and inside in a 4-3, though mainly off ball.

 

He was in Jets camp and was cut, but he has 7 years in the league with a good amount of starting experience.

 

Anyone know more about him? Could he play MLB and/or be a fit for the Bills?

Well, I think it’s a cool name!

Are you keeping vigil until the Bills sign him?  

 

I'm here all week.  Try the veal.

His coverage numbers are BAD, doesn’t offer much that AJ Klein can’t do himself.

You should hold a vigil in Buffalo to get Vigil in Buffalo.

He could be signed to PS and Bills could determine if he is a fit without risking putting him on roster with guaranteed salary for a year.

Thanks for the insight on coverage being a weakness for the guy, Vigil. Hopefully one of these young 3rd round picks steps up.

 

Just curious if there is anyone (Christian Kirksey, etc) that may be an upgrade or at least raise the floor a bit on that position.

He’ll raise the floor a couple millimeters once he learns the playbook.  I’d add him to the PS if he’d join.  My problem with him is injuries, although he stayed mostly healthy last season

Not with Kirksey available.

I would look at the guys the Dolphins released instead....there's some serious talent they just put on the street in Malik Reed, Aubrey Miller and Cam Goode!!
