Maybe it's short for Herbert. We know a pretty good Herbert that plays for LA. Does that help any? Hmmmm, does it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I’m noticing it more around the league. McD in Miami brought Mostart and then Wilson Jr in. Just today Sean Payton brought in Tre’quan Smith - drafted him in NO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just today Sean Payton brought in Tre’quan Smith - drafted him in NO Look at all the guys from Buffalo Schein/Dabol brought in. The first year or two, it makes sense. And I think it's a major part of what is hampering Payton with having been out of the league for a couple years. New coaches bringing in players that are already familiar with the new coach and can set the tone in the new locker room of "Hey, give this guy a shot, I worked with him in the past and he knows his stuff" is invaluable when trying to change culture. But at THIS POINT, with McD being one of the longest tenured active coaches, and the Bills already established culture and winning, the pipeline from Carolina is just a joke. Crazy we seemingly cant/wont elsewhere. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there was never the amount that was complained about and this far out it wouldn't even make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 People, this guy was only on the Panthers as a futures/camp body FOR THIS OFFSEASON. NO ONE WHO MCDERMOTT AND BEANE WORKED WITH IS STILL IN CAROLINA. AND YES I'M YELLING BECAUSE THIS DISCUSSION IS RIDICULOUS. 1 4 15 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy has been in the league 3 years (this is his 4th). He's been on rosters for a few games for Tampa Bay and Cleveland (2 years) but mostly on practice squad. Panthers picked him up as a futures signing in January and waived him at the end of camp. 28 minutes ago, DCofNC said: It’s common everywhere, familiarity play a large part in all decisions. “It’s about who you know, not what you know” is the way it goes in corporate America and it’s no different in the NFL. There is really no coaching familiarity with this player. He was not in Carolina when anyone now with the Bills was. This is purely about Beane's pro-personnel guys hunting the league looking for the best unsigned guy they can put on the practice squad, with PS backup Ja'Marcus Ingram suffering a leg injury during practice (he walked off); Tre' White on IR, and Benford day-to-day with a shoulder. 29 minutes ago, DrDawkinstein said: But at THIS POINT, with McD being one of the longest tenured active coaches, and the Bills already established culture and winning, the pipeline from Carolina is just a joke. Crazy we seemingly cant/wont elsewhere. Jeesh, crazy the Bills signed a PS DB who played for Tampa and the Browns, and was only on the Panthers roster during the off-season? C'Mon Man. People are looking overtime for Carolina Connections they can froth about I'm more worried he was in the Browns locker room for 2 years. I don't think that's a winning environment.

Many moons ago, we played the game of picking Training Camp Cuts by last name alone. It’s a surprisingly accurate metric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now there is one (Shavers) Though we do have Shorter on IR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
