  1. Thank you! What are your thoughts on Corbin Bryant as a starting caliber DT? I think he could start on some teams. I'm very nervous about blitzing so much especially against the Cardinals.

    I do think he could start on some teams for two reasons. Bryant is a blue collar hard working type guy and because he has very good technique in all areas. As far as blitzing, the Bills will have to be very cautious against them. They like to push the ball down field w speed and have some amazing talent out of the backfield. I'll save my scouting report for the season but does that sound like an offense we know? As the Bills offense elevates their game our defense will to. Is it week one yet?

    Unlike the NBA and MLB, the NFL has actually taken recent steps to lessen punishment for positive Cannabis tests(See Josh Gordon). A tangible example of this was the raising of the threshold for a positive test from 15 nanograms per milliliter to 35ng/ml.

     

    In addition the NFL uses suspension as a last resort, coming into effect after the fourth positive test.

     

    That shouldnt surprise anyone given that the NFL, more than any other sport, does everything it can to keep players on the field.

     

    Here is the NFL breakdown:

     

    First Infraction Mandatory Rehabilitation Program

     

    Second Infraction 2 Game Fine (Can Play Un-Paid)

     

    Third Infraction 4 Game Fine (Can Play Un-Paid)

     

    Fourth Infraction 4 Game Suspension

     

    Fifth Infraction 10 Game Suspension

    Thats right, the NHL does NOT include Cannabis on its list of banned substances

    Great stuff Ryan

  3. It is a passing league. Get rid of all the fullbacks. They are not needed. If they need a big body in the backfiled they can make Karlos Williams block, a TE, or any random spare OL/DL. FB is useless. Felton wasn't even any good last year. I would much rahter keep an extra - well pretty much any extra position except punter and long-snapper over a FB.

    Roman has to have a fullback in his offense. Felton did struggle at times but that was only in space. If you go to My Cover 1 site and watch the why it worked series u will see that Felton made quite the difference on a lot of our TDs.

  4. If his name wasn't Gronkowski I don't think that he'd be with a team. He doesn't do anything particularly well and is limited athletically.

    Totally agree. I gave him he benefit of the doubt too. But after watching that film idk if I would waste a practice squad position on him. Practice squad players typically run scout team for starters Thye are relied upon to resemble oposing teams players and give the 1st teamed a good looks. Will he do that for our team? I don't think so.

    LOL! How do you get that they are "different in every way right out of the box"?

     

    And while I like CJ's potential, remember that EJ had a far better first-ever pre-season game against none other than the Colts back in 2013, except he was going against 1st and 2nd stringers.

    Valid points. Take into account the system, no expectations for a 5th rounder and pure arm talent Cardale fits better than EJ did when he came in.

  6. This Kid is the perfect developmental QB. Hope Bills can set a new precedent , in giving players time to get up to speed.

    Might have been part of what screwed up EJ honestly.

    Jones was fun to watch, as he was having a blast

    All three of these prior comments are spot on. He played well, his fundamentals are still lacking at time but his big arm makes up for it. He is perfect for this offense. The right mix of arm and legs. But his accuracy is lacking. Great outing overall.

  7. The question mark here is his ability to take on a block, much like you displayed Lawson to do. We figure he is quick enough to cover and definitely has pass rushing ability. I hope Rex throws that position to the wolves and offers little support tonight. Let's see if anyone can seperate themselves from the pack

     

    Definitely his weakness. One thing that Rex does to help guys like he and Hughes are let them freestyle. When the Bills are in their 3-4 look the Rush LB is often given freedom to use his quickness etc to make a play. Not always, but sometimes. That could help Striker in some cases.

  8. You gotta pick your spots using Sammy in the slot.

    I can see it on a big 3rd and three late in the 4th quarter, but other than that we don't want linebackers hitting him.

    If he gets hurt we are totally screwed.

    Definitely, I am not saying every play but you have to move him around. That is what scheming is, creating mismatches and using him in the slot creates mismatches...

  9. Thanks for posting.

     

    To me, this play is less about Manny Lawson and more about Mr. Big Stuff.

     

    He eats up both the Center/Guard combination w/o losing much, if any, ground. This allows Preston Brown to flow untouched. Sure, Manny does an excellent job of containing the play and squeezing the gap, but in the end it is really Dareus that makes this play IMO.

     

    LMFAO on Gronk/Hughes though

     

    Yeah it is a defensive unit effort, I was trying to highlight the technique used by Manny. If he doesn't squeeze that gap Blount could have bounced it etc.
