I hate you Jerry Jones.

This man had 1 fluke season and seriously fleeced some teams, including the bills.

I actually think he has been a productive player for the Bills when he is NOT INJURED.  He likes playing here and attitude does affect production.  I'm fine with him as a cheap stopgap and insurance policy.

I say sign him to the practice squad and call him up if needed. See what he has in the tank and if he works in the system let him earn it.

Very good idea.

Frank's Big-Bellied Defensive Tackle Rule: every big-bellied defensive tackle will have exactly two good seasons in an eight year career; you just never know which one and which season.

I count exactly one good Jordan Phillips season, his first stint with he Bills.

So the odds are in our favor.

Jordan Phillips was good for some nice QB pressures from inside. He was literally always hurt though...so I guess sign him up for 4-6 games until he's back on IR?

I would challenge him to

get through a single game without getting injured.

Players seem to do well on our scheme. Shaq was very good, left and was terrible and did well back with us.  I’d say the same for Phillips. Hope he can give us something. 

 

No problem with this as a stopgap until we are healthier.

Of course JP wants to come back. He wants to get paid.

He's a vet.  His salary was guaranteed whether he played or was cut.

he played coy with messing with other teams but in the end we got our guy folks

[Mrbojanglezs]

He seemed to play decent here, maybe just a system fit. Would do it if it's dirt cheap.

Anyone know what Schobel is up to? Maybe we can kick the tires?

He's flat out bad but he's an easy guy to bring in for 2 weeks and then cut once Carter is back. 

That's around the time Philips would get injured anyway.

He was always bad as a run defender. Looks like he's worse this season. He always wanted to rush the QB, which he was pretty good at in spurts. Maybe obvious passing downs he could still do something. But I'll pass on this one.

that is common.   Many players in the league fit some systems but not others.  NFL is one sport where not every great player can fit on your team.

 

you can’t interchange 3-4 and 4-3 LBs nor 3-4/4-3 DLs.  Some OL/RBs fit well in some run/ blocking schemes but not others
