Seems like this guy is more of a marginal DL addition. Let’s see what this guy is getting paid in terms of guaranteed … I expect them to bring in another guy at DE as well either draft or someone still on the shelf later It doesn’t close the door on Shaq .. just makes it more difficult… I think he likes it in Buffalo at this stage of his career and might even settle for a PS position 1 Quote

You could do worse. However, I think the Bills are on a bit of a youth movement especially along the defensive line where they have thus far let Poona Ford, Leonard Floyd and Tim Settle sign with other teams while Jordan Phillips, Linval Joseph (whose probably going to retire or take a mid-season contract) and Shaq remain unsigned. The only vet they brought back was Daquon whose really the only one tech they had. Still a lot of options out there to round out the rotation and time/room for Shaq to get a camp spot. 1 Quote
DJB Posted March 19 Posted March 19 He’s not a pass rusher more of a run defender which is fine Quote

I think that may be all you need to know about Mr Toohill. Let’s hope he surpasses both of those Bills Legends. Not to the level of say, Gibran Hamdan. He’s the archetypal Bills Legend. 2 1 Quote

He's from San Diego & went to Stanford. I guess Beane didn't believe Deion & wanted to show him how wrong he thinks Deion is about kids who grow up in warm weather playing in cold weather cities. 1 1 Quote

Casey Toohill, EDGE It is going to be extremely difficult for any team to replace both Chase Young and Montez Sweat immediately after trading them. Casey Toohill has stepped into a starting role since their departures, and he's hardly been an ideal replacement. If you asked Pro Football Focus, Toohill is ranked 97th out of 109 possible players at his position around the NFL. That's ... in a word ... bad. Toohill is one of the biggest reasons this Washington defense is in the bottom half of the league against the run. He has been one of the worst run defenders on this unit, by far. On a positive note, Toohill does have 5.0 sacks on the season. But, that is also kind of a fluky number. Toohill has been far from consistent in garnering pressure on opposing quarterbacks. Consider those sacks more so of a few "flash in the pan" type moments. They're more of an anomaly than they are the norm. Washington has to overhaul the edge position, obviously, and Toohill likely won't make it back onto this roster after nearly four seasons here. 1 Quote
BBFL Posted March 19 Posted March 19 People are making a mountain out of a Toohill. This signing is nothing. 2 Quote
BigAl2526 Posted March 19 Posted March 19 He actually has some athleticism. His 4.62 40 time is faster than a lot of guys who will be drafted in the first couple rounds of the draft. His 39 inch vertical is even better compared with prospects at DE. The question is whether or not good coaching can help him address the shortcomings in his game, especially in run defense. In any case, he'll be a fringe player at best, getting reps only if guys ahead of him are injured. 1 Quote
