They quietly got better today. We have new guys like Nick Morrow and the other dude whose name I can’t spell yet just oozing with potential.

Bernard, Dorian, and Deion... 

 

For the love of God, just let these three stay healthy.

I think Spector is the next man up if Dorian doesn’t take it.  But he can’t stay healthy either 🤦🏻‍♂️

TBD is at its best with these therapeutic threads.  I hope someone bumps a Edmunds mega thread soon to help lift our spirits.

I bet Bears would send him back to us for 6th round pick. No doubt they have buyers remorse

[Goin Breakdown]

With safety and LB issues, this will look much like last year but with a playoff caliber schedule all season long. They better play out of their minds.

From the Bears fan perspective the criticism started very early, by game 2, which surprised me a bit. By game 3 they were already questioning “what does this guy do well? He’s billed as a coverage linebacker yet he’s terrible in coverage.” That one had me laughing. When I last checked midway through the season some considered it a positive when he got hurt against the Chargers. That game was the last I kept up with Edmunds and how Bears fans perceived their new LBer.

That dude is nowhere near ready to play in a real NFL great story but he needs at least a year on a practice squad. Oh wait I understand let him play we can't afford to get anymore of pur main guys hurt. Sorry

[Jimmy Harris 69]

The Bills prepared for the possibility that Milano wouldn’t be ready. Jones, Spector, Bernard, Williams——we will be fine.

What's Eddie "Chad Penninington Broke My Ankles" Robinson up to?

[Captain Hindsight]

Well the room is a lot quieter so there’s that

Now that's funny

[Florida Bills Fanatic]

Watching o-linemen dropping like flies across the league, may give Beane a chance to make a trade to get some improved LB depth.  I don't think the Bills will stand pat.  I also think Williams will be better than most of us expect.

Kidding aside Deion Jones was a pretty good off ball lb not that long ago and he's still 29 maybe he fills in well? Or am I just wishful thinking here?

First thing first.  Losing Milano is a huge loss, but unlike in years past, the Bills are in better shape to survive the loss.  Beane invested at LB in the draft the last 3 years by drafting Benard, Williams, Spector and Ulofoshio, plus signing two vets with good track records in Jones and Morrow.  

Remember the Bills did pretty well without Milano in 14 games last season and Benard will be even better this season in his second year as a starter.
 

Ultimately, Williams gets the first shot at winning Milano’s job.  Williams flashed in two starts, but was ultimately benched because of poor zone pass coverage.  If this improves, he could win the job permanently.  If he doesn’t, I think Deion Jones takes the job.  He is perfectly capable of giving us what Dobson gave us last year.  I live in Atlanta and I’ve seen Deion Jones at his best, and if he stays healthy, he is very capable of becoming the starter and giving us good play.

 

I think the Bills like Spector as well, but he just can’t stay healthy and is again banged up.  He did play pretty well late last season when forced in the lineup.

Are these linebackers in the room with you now?
