BeastMode54 Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 POST CURRENT PLAYERS!!!!!!!!! :wallbash: I'd take Clements or Winfield over McGee I stand corrected. Current NFL players I would have to say Big Pat Williams
John from Riverside Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 POST CURRENT PLAYERS!!!!!!!!! :wallbash: I'd take Clements or Winfield over McGee Ah....sorry..... How about that LB that the Steelers are starting that we cut....I cannot remember his name but he turned out pretty good.
LevysEraII Posted May 5, 2008 Author Posted May 5, 2008 Good question! I'm talking from a talent perspective, comparing the players to who we have on the team now (ignoring salary/value). I'd like to have any of the following back: [ Mike Shneck for long-snapping duties (unless there was an unreported personality/behavior issue that got him cut) I actually didn't even think about Schnek, but you're right. Schnek was a costly loss. Especially against Cleveland.
Arkady Renko Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Ah....sorry..... How about that LB that the Steelers are starting that we cut....I cannot remember his name but he turned out pretty good. There is such a person?
Arkady Renko Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Pat Williams and perhaps Antoine Winfield (I am not sure if he is playing well anymore, however). Winfield was such an amazing tackler. I keep on thinking about how often runners got past the defensive backfield this year and how good he was at taking on running backs and receivers.
tennesseeboy Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Former Bill not in the NFL...I'll go with Cookie Gilchrist for this year. He's a devastating short yardage fullback and one of the best blocking fullbacks (maybe Nick Pietrosante of Detroit was a better blocker, but he couldn't run like Cookie.) Whoa...with him and Lynch in the backfield...watch out!
BillsWatch Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Ethan Albright for snapper. He never blew a snap. One of my favorite quotes on Madden: http://deadspin.com/sports/nfl/ethan-albri...ight-207393.php You know what, John? Two can play this game. I rate you a !@#$ing 12. I rate you a !@#$ing 12 in Ethan Albright Football 2000-ever... except for in the category of ball-licking. That is where I will spot you a 98 rating. You will receive this score because I will never give your blubbery ass a 99 in any category. Take that, pencil-dick. Go do Al Michaels or something. Boom. Score one for Red Beard.
justnzane Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Even Though I like Lindell, Shayne Graham would be a good one to have.
Buftex Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Even Though I like Lindell, Shayne Graham would be a good one to have. Excellent choice...I still don't completely trust Lindell, but maybe that is because the last two coaching staffs don't/didn't seem to either...
WellDressed Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 WOW.........Everyone on draft day wanted a TE yet here in this post, no one would want Pete Metzelaars on the team in 2008?? Are you people ill???
Tcali Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 WOW.........Everyone on draft day wanted a TE yet here in this post, no one would want Pete Metzelaars on the team in 2008?? Are you people ill??? where is metzelaars playing?
Spiderweb Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 A healthy Sammy Morris would be nice. When healthy, Sammy has been a solid player where ever he has been with, yet sadly, staying healthy isn't something he's ever been able to manage to do. Phat Pat is still the obvious choice. He never should have gotten away, and wouldn't have if it weren't for that "genius" Donohoe.
ttomnich Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Simplest question ever..besides my name. JIM KELLY. The next best would be Thurman and anyone to disagree DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FOOTBALL
Matt in KC Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 I think the question is about current players, not say OJ, Thurman, Bruce (etc.) in their primes. You can find/post those the the semi-annual "who's the best Bill ever?" thread.
lets_go_bills Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Good question. There's a couple of guys I miss. London Fletcher, Pat Williams, Antoine Winfield, and Nate Clements. But at the end of the day its gotta be Pat, they never should of let him him go. Our Run-D went from best to worst when he left. He was an underappreciated anchor.
stuckincincy Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 When healthy, Sammy has been a solid player where ever he has been with, yet sadly, staying healthy isn't something he's ever been able to manage to do. Phat Pat is still the obvious choice. He never should have gotten away, and wouldn't have if it weren't for that "genius" Donohoe. Yep...right you are. A small vote for Sam Adams. When he came to CIN, as usual for him he wasn't in game shape until after the 1st third of the season. But when he played, he still had that cat-quick move off the snap and drew double teams. I always remember how a poster here described him - "A pass-rushing linebacker who happens to be built like a rhino".
BillsWatch Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Simplest question ever..besides my name. JIM KELLY. The next best would be Thurman and anyone to disagree DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FOOTBALL Or did not read the entire Subject .... What former Bill would you like to have on our roster? Active NFL players only.
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted May 6, 2008 Posted May 6, 2008 Guys like Ross Tucker, Mike Gandy, Marcus Price, Terrence Pennington, etc. Need that o-line depth. Is Dusty Zeigler still around?
