John from Riverside Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Leave him in....lets see what we got
EC-Bills Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Leave him in....lets see what we got I was happy with him. No calls against him or sacks he was responsible for from what I could tell.
K-9 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I don't know. I was kinda missing Chambers today. GO BILLS!!!
WVUFootball29 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I think Jamon Meredith played a very good game out there at RT, especially for the short amount of time he has been with the team. I think he'll finish the season out there as I don't think Scott will be able to reclaim that position. If all goes well, we may see a line of Bell? - Levitre- Wood- Butler- Meredith next season. I'd be alright with that.
rpcolosi Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 he was a guy i was hoping we would draft. i actually thought it said a lot about the FO to go take him off of GBs practice squad. it means someone in our scouting dept actually watched some college tape. that said, it was cheaper then getting an aging runyan...

I'd be alright with that. In 2010 he'll provide ample backup with Butler back out there.

I'd be alright with that. I think I'd prefer a draftee as Bell's replacement, at this point. Did anyone else see when they were reviewing, and kept replaying, the forward pass / fumble by Fitz? Bell got beat by his guy, and then just stood there holding his arm as the play went on. Each time they replayed it, my eyes instantly went to that guy standing there, like a baby, while the rest of his teammates were blocking and fighting.
John from Riverside Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 I am really hoping that this group gets better every game and are really good by the end of the season.....I really DONT want to spend a high first round draft pick on a left tackle....... I would rather use it on a QB like Jake Locker or a DT to put in the DL rotation.....and bring in some veteran swing OL so we dont have this jailbrake at OL like we did this year. I still firmly believe we dont have the answer at QB on the roster right now.......

I don't really want Bell out there if we can help it. Anyone able to figure out WTF Bell was doing on the Fitzpatrick pass they called a fumble at first? Personally, I'd look for a vet at LT rather than another draftee right now. need some experience out there. Not sure who's available off the top of my head. I'll look tomorrow.
John from Riverside Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 I think folks are giving up on Bell way to quickly.....he is extremely raw.
WVUFootball29 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I think folks are giving up on Bell way to quickly.....he is extremely raw. Not so much giving up on him as I am not wanting to see a work in progress getting our QBs killed. Let him learn in practice.
Malazan Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I think folks are giving up on Bell way to quickly.....he is extremely raw. His father won't talk to him, it's because he's bad at football AND basketball, I heard. Time for him to go.
John from Riverside Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 I think folks are giving up on Bell way to quickly.....he is extremely raw. Also.....the not willing to mix it up comments to me dont wash....he is one of the few OL I see on our team getting into it after the plays. He is an athlete trying to turn into a football player out there and learning as he goes.
John from Riverside Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 Not so much giving up on him as I am not wanting to see a work in progress getting our QBs killed. Let him learn in practice. It is just my opinion but I think the only way for Bell to get better is to actually play him. I thought he did pretty well today. I know he has had some rough patches in previous games.....
Rubes Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Also.....the not willing to mix it up comments to me dont wash....he is one of the few OL I see on our team getting into it after the plays. He is an athlete trying to turn into a football player out there and learning as he goes. I have to agree. He may suck, but he's the only lineman out there (with the possible exception of Wood) who's showing any kind of moxie out there.
deep2evans Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I think folks are giving up on Bell way to quickly.....he is extremely raw. Absolutely. I think he can be a solid player.
Malazan Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Absolutely. I think he can be a solid player. Yeah, but we had best LT ever in Jason Peters. From the day he was drafted, he was the best at LT. Didn't need to learn or play TE or anything.
