I mean he might have slept with Richardson's mom like Deonte West slept with Lebron's mom.

A lot people slept with LeBrons mom...

why does he need to rest?

Because he's been hurt, doesn't know the defense and could use a few weeks to get acclimated and give his body some relief from the wear and tear of a full season. He has not played a full season in three years, why throw him to the wolves.

Is this a real person?

 

Sounds like a Create-a-Player inspired by Shaq Lawson and Leonard Floyd.

[John from Riverside]

Are people not seen the post of how much you come on guys?

[MJS]

Isn't he subject to waivers?

Yes but based on previous injuries and guaranteed salary likely not be signed.

Yes so better PS candidate and used when situation is best.  

Bills have a good training staff and facility so it would help him recover although not sure if he will pass physical for Bills.

I'll say it again, nerve damage doesn't get better.

That is something I understand having it.

So then you understand that the training staff and rest are irrelevant.  He's broken. This is why they released him.

What playmakers do you want Beane to sign now?

 

Hold off until any come available? It's not necessarily signing them up now which is the issue either - it's the subsequent cap impact moving forward which may affect the Bills ability over the close season to do so.

true, although I believe this would allow a back to back shaq attack 

Or just call him Dareus 

"Hey, Buffalo gave me a nice contract!  Where can I get a captain's cap?"

"Back off, Jack!  It's been done!" 🤨

Wow.

 

He will have his pick of teams.

 

I'd see him landing in Miami or Philly.

If he can play, he'll probably go to KC with Bolton on IR.

Who do you foresee becoming available this season?

This is a guy that’s absolutely worth signing. He was one of the 3 best LBs in football only a few years ago. Sometimes guys need a change of scenery. Absolutely better then that we have. Make it happen 

 

 

Absolutely WAS better than we have. Almost no reason whatsoever to think he can ever reach that level again, though.

 

He's played 66% of their defensive snaps this year. Zero forced fumbles, zero fumbles recovered, zero INTs, zero passes defensed, zero QB hits or sacks. The only impact plays that show up in the stats are his two tackles for loss. 

 

This ain't your daddy's Darius Leonard.

 

I mean, Dorian Williams has a pass defensed, a QB hit and half Leonard's tackles on less than a third of Leonard's snaps.

yes, as the Bills need some more bodies in at LB now, and he may end up being a much different player on this team.

 

Remember: Jerry Hughes looked like a bust when he played for that dysfunctional mess of a team and that worked out pretty well for the Bills!
