MattyT Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 DAAAAAAMMN! That was quick. Are they brining in another FA to compete?
duey Posted August 7, 2006 Author Posted August 7, 2006 Not suprised. 737238[/snapback] Nope...me either.
Mike32282 Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 DAAAAAAMMN! That was quick. Are they brining in another FA to compete? 737239[/snapback] for the backup linebacker position!?!? Why would they? They already got tremendous depth at LB!
Kelly the Dog Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Just didn't have the gittyup to play in this defense. They must see a little promise in the young guys and want to get them more reps. One thing I can say about the new sheriffs in town, they don't waste a lot of time on some things. I like it. It's also good for Posey to give him a legitimate shot on another team. Great news for Haggin and Ellison.
scribo Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Good for Posey, no doubt, but I was hoping he could have provided a dangerous pass rush.

Dan Gross Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Linky. Chris Brown has blogged about it already.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Good luck to Posey in the future, but once Angelo emerged...you knew Posey wasnt going to be sticking around for much longer (either until his contract expired next season or he was released...looks like we found out which one.)
Talonz Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 And yet another failure by TD. 737255[/snapback] Who is TD?
OnTheRocks Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 i have no opinion on Posey. he was with the Bills for what? 2 ? 3 ? seasons. he played the non-glorious position of SLB and never really made a great impact, yet i don't know enough about him to know that he was a detrement to the defense either. i wish him well and am glad he has time to land a job with another team before the season begins. i only hope he doesn't end up with a team in the AFC East....and the Bills OLine makes him look like a Hall of Famer.
SACKMARINO Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 posey was released 3 year too late. was a class act though, never heard a peep from the guy. his saftey on David Carr was his best play with the Bills.
true_blue_bill Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Jeff Posey has been released. Discuss. 737234[/snapback] He never lived up to his billing. Anther Donahue failure. I wonder if this is a good sign that Spikes is well on his way back to full recovery, or just a sign of how bad Posey was?
smokinandjokin Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 And yet another failure by TD. 737255[/snapback] Yep. That was the guy TD targeted at 12:05am of the free agent signing period. It's hard to say he underperformed in Buffalo because I never watched/noticed him play before he got here. I know he would've liked to rush the QB more- BUT, some guys find their way to the ball and make plays. Posey seemed to wait for the system to put him in position to make plays, and blamed the system when he wasn't perceived as being active.
Dan Gross Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 He never lived up to his billing. Anther Donahue failure. I wonder if this is a good sign that Spikes is well on his way back to full recovery, or just a sign of how bad Posey was? 737259[/snapback] It was a sign of how a DE/OLB 'tweener had no room in a "Tampa Cover 2" defense, strictly speaking. Speed over size...
The Tomcat Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 I wish him luck also. He will be picked up by someone for sure. I'm a little surprised because I don't think Spikes is ready (I hope I'm wrong) and thought Posey would provide a "stop gap" at LB...maybe Spikes is better that I think. I wonder if we have someone else in mind to bring in or if our depth is ready to step up?
