BillsGuyInMalta Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 From KFFL: Bills | Bell signed Comment (0) Tweet me! Sun, 26 Apr 2009 19:29:56 -0700 The Buffalo Bills have signed undrafted free-agent OT Joel Bell (Furman). Terms of the contract were not disclosed. Considered one of the top UDFAs available. A lot were clamoring for him with the 7th rounder, does this make some people less angry over that CB pick?
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 http://www.draftcountdown.com/scoutingrepo...t/Joel-Bell.php Sounds like he's pretty athletic, but he needs some work on strength and technique, comparable to Demetrius Bell. Probably the kind of player who projects to LT if he ever becomes anything.
jreed82 Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Joel Bell is a great pickup. many scouts had a third round grade on this OT. Way to go Buffalo. Orion martin is great pickup too. How bad was the Ellis pick???? Martin replaced him and had similar if not better numbers. Same position, same system.
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 The big difference between him and say a guy like Cadogan is better footwork, or "nimble" they say. Good deal.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted April 27, 2009 Author Posted April 27, 2009 Bell does has freakish size and quick feet. Obviously the level of competition will be the biggest knock against him...but the physical tools are there which is always good news.

BillsGuyInMalta Posted April 27, 2009 Author Posted April 27, 2009 ?????? KFFL says the Dolphins signed him. KFFL erroneously reported the Bills did. They since changed it.
Tortured Soul Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Scouts Inc. has bell as the 21st best tackle, 171st overall prospect. McShay had him going mid-6th round in his seven round mock. Overall, a solid pickup. Edit: our future tackles: the Bellboys? the Bell Brothers? The Bell Pops?

deep2evans Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 If we took this guy in the 7th, and picked up a CB after the draft, would there be less C- grades and more A- grades? The collective intelligence of this board is at an all-time low. I can't wait until draft fever is over.
