Bleeding Bills Blue

Seems like both teams needed the depth in a different place. We added an ILB we expect to start, they added Werner who they expect to start/rotate at OLB. Both were going to get less reps anyway.

Why don't they have him hold field goals? Increases success on a fake by like a million percent. We could also have him learn how to pooch punt. Even if hes only as good as Brady is, we could send him out there and line up in a deep shotgun and see what looks they give us. If he's never going to be a quality QB, at least put him out there in different situations and see if we can steal some Time outs and first downs.

I don't understand why everyone says we have a precious few picks... were missing a 7th rounder. That's essentially a undrafted free agent anyway. It's only a precious few picks because we have a ton of glaring holes. Who's fault is that?!

Tavon Austin's film and production are a class above Parrish... Even ginn or sproles. Looks more like Reggie bush than roscoe

I'm not horribly opposed. I would be if they brought him in to be our starter, but he could certainly come in and compete on our total lack of a depth chart. Looking at some of their players from 2010/2011, its no wonder they were terrible.

58.5% completion percentage... in college football? That to me just shows significant inaccuracy, which you cant really teach. Also he was sacked 36 times. Which has a bit of a Losman factor that leaves a bad taste in my mouth. PASS

Ruben Brown...?

I'm not saying draft warmack... But ur comparisons are way off. The decastro injury was similar to how wood got injured, so it's not like he's injury prone. People fall on you, it's football. I don't know why you think he's bad because of it

Only a college team with 3 all-american offensive lineman, and the 19th ranked offense in all of college football (while playing against the best defenses in football). I still see a pretty good player capable of a solid NFL career. He's an inside linebacker, hes never going to make a defense amazing, but to say that hes going to be a bust is a bit premature.

Why is everyone so down on this guy? He was the heisman runner-up! Considering no defensive player has ever really won it (woodson doesnt count, he was a returner and played some on offense), thats a pretty impressive thing to put on his resume. Yes he had a bad game against Bama, but looking over Bama's W-L record and the scores in those games... They pretty much made everyone they played look bad except for Johnny Football. As for this online girlfriend stuff, it will probably blow over and pop up again around draft time. At least hes not driving drunk or doing illegal things. Lastly, I am not saying draft the guy, I'm saying it wouldnt be tragic if we did. The guys a player, and deserves to be in the conversation if he's there when we pick.

How about teaching brad smith how to hold? I always thought it would be nice to have a guy back there who can throw on fake FG attempts.

The great thing about the read option is the misdirection, the bad thing is that you can cause your own turnovers with the handoffs. Kaep also holds the ball very poorly in his hands (I believe he fumbled against Buffalo in one of his plays). I wouldnt be surprised if he accounts for between 10-15 fumbles next year. However I still think with that team he can go 12-4, 13-3.

So its being reported the Jags have no interest in Tebow. I say we take the guy off the jets hands, and make him a FB/HB/TE combo. The guy is a football player, and has great instincts on the field. If he can be had for pennies on the dollar i say take it. We need a legit power back, and he could probably fill a few roles in a diverse offense. Just please don't do anymore wildcat....

Lovie is just like a Jauron or Gailey, there's a reason that they get fired. The problem is we have Swung and missed on these so called "proven" guys, and have been hanging out in the cellar of the division for years now. Rebuilding would Imply that we are rebuilding the roster, which we probably won't. Those holes are still there, and I trust the new guy to address them more than Gailey or Lovie. As for Marrone specifically, i like the fact that he actually WANTS this job. Not just a job in the NFL as a head coach, but a job as the bills head coach. GO BILLS!

Yea, I was at that game. They just ran simple misdirection plays for the 2nd half and gashed us for what? 300 yards?

Im not worried about our base D to be honest, we largely got torched in Nickel and Dime situations this year anyway. Get a LB who can cover, and some good sized corners who can tackle.

I think too much is made of 3-4 vs. 4-3. In the end he'll have his hand down more than he'll be standing up. JJ Watt just goes to show you that the 3-4 end isn't the same position it used to be.

I still like the Kyle williams as a nose tackle in the 3-4. He had a little Jay Ratliff in him, as a penetrator blowing up the blocking schemes in the backfield. Dareus would need to drop lbs to play end, and mario flexing with carrington at end and linebacker in pass rushing situations. The problem is that we have lousy linebackers, and now we would need even more linebackers to cover. I think sheppard fits into a 3-4 better though, as does Moats (if we keep him, which we probably won't).

I'd be fine with most of this. If troup can actually get on the field as a depth NT, that pick would actually make some sense. The backers suck though...

He's around JJ Watt's size, and hes been crushing it in the 3-4. I don't think he wants to be locked in as a 3-4 end or OLB, but if he can do both I'm sure he'd be fine.

It's tough when we run tons of shotgun 5 -wide sets with no help anywhere. What happened to play action? What happened to rollouts and bootlegs?

Then get a new kicker with the leg. Its stupid as hell to punt from the 33 yard line. Or at least teach brad smith to punt so we can have some type of attempt to get the first/make them call time out.

i know... if ur not going to win any games at least get me a few TDs for my fantasy team

Made a nice play to force a fumble today. PI was the end of the game, but i had 0 faith in a comeback anyway

As bad as the red flag thing was... He kicked a 48 yard field goal on 3rd down. I don't care who the kicker is, that's a tough kick from the hash. Why not try and pick up a few yards? What are u doing on a bad snap? A 58 yarder? Dumb!
