K-Gun10 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 i like him he could very well be a bill see ya later gandy.
In space no one can hear Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I think Timmerman would have been the answer several seasons ago. He is a tough guy and great community guy. He's played 12 seasons and though he has been quite durable- he's at the age when guards tend to start falling apart fast. I'd prefer someone that we can put next to Peters for years.
Orton's Arm Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Agreed. He seems like another Chris Villarrial.
Dibs Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 The conceptual Timmermann would interest me. That means.....just like Timmermann was when the Rams got him.....getting one of the top FA OGs entering their 5th year in the league. Steinbach & Deilman fit perfectly in the 'Timmermann' role for us.
Fewell733 Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Agreed. He seems like another Chris Villarrial. only two years older. No thank you.
frogger Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 he's a little better than Vill, he is a little more athletic which would help him, he would be a cheap bandaid, however all championship teams have cheap bandaids, players too old and unwanted. well except the colts. if he came here under a 1 or 2 year contract, I would entertain it.

Not me. The key to building a solid offensive line is continuity. You need to have the same group of guys work together for years. That sort of continuity was instrumental in building the Bills' OL during the Super Bowl era. You don't build continuity on the OL by bringing in a guy with one foot in retirement. The Bills should either a) draft offensive linemen, or b) sign young, high quality offensive linemen. No more rejects like Bennie Anderson or Tuten Reyes, and no faltering old guys like Chris Villarrial.
frogger Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 the days of building are over, well, kind of, you have to get lucky, (jason Peters and maybe Pennington) not pick players that don't amount to anything (Mike Williams) and then add some key guys via free agency, some cheap (Mike gandy and Fowler) some expensive (villarrial) and hopefully you become good. Sadly after a single good year, Villiarrial has become a waste, but I wouldn't cut him until training camp, just in case. and Gandy has one great moment where he'll open a great hole that Mcgahee will miss, but follow it up, by giving up a drive killing sack. I thought Willie Roaf's career was done before going to KC, where he continued his hall of fame play until he retired last year. Again, I wouldn't close any option to make this team better, even bringing back Ruben.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 So I guess so far people want Villarial and Gandy out of Buffalo. I agree.
K-Gun10 Posted February 12, 2007 Author Posted February 12, 2007 So I guess so far people want Villarial and Gandy out of Buffalo. I agree. u can prolly add tutan reyes to that list
billybob Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 So I guess so far people want Villarial and Gandy out of Buffalo. I agree. keep Gandy cut Villarial and Reyes
The Jokeman Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 So I guess so far people want Villarial and Gandy out of Buffalo. I agree. I'm all for letting Gandy go and signing a starting LG in free agency (see Kris Dielman) and then draft an OG like Josh Beekman with our 2nd Rounder and try to keep Villarial around for depth purposes. Although think adding another versaitilles O-line for depth purposes might be wise if let Villarial go. Guys on that short list are Floyd Womack and David Diehl. EDIT: Cross Diehl of the list according to NFLPlayers.org he's under contract through 2011.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 keep Gandy cut Villarial and Reyes I forgot about Reyes. Why did we even get the guy in the first place?
The Jokeman Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 I forgot about Reyes. Why did we even get the guy in the first place? because he was affordable and put up good stats as a starter in Carolina.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 and put up good stats as a starter in Carolina. Not in Buffalo.
The Jokeman Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 Not in Buffalo. His stats don't look too bad here in he was only credited for giving up 1.5 sacks and took 1 penalty in 6 starts but sadly he wasn't the answer but I don't think Mike Gandy is either.
BuffaloBilliever Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 It has suddenly occured to me... WE SHOULD'VE MOVED WILLIAMS TO GUARD.
The Big Cat Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 keep Gandy cut Villarial and Reyes yes! but who knows if the Bills are inclined to buy Tea for the Tinnerman.
The Big Cat Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 because he was affordable and put up good stats as a starter in Carolina. to my knowledge, he was a reserve.
apuszczalowski Posted February 12, 2007 Posted February 12, 2007 He was a starter for a little while, and he did play decent here (but not great) and was benched due to attitude and work habit reasons. He won't be back unless that changes (which I doubt it will)
