I don't believe it, but if he's really beat out, it helps the Bills financial situaition going forward. But then again, your OL has a rookie and two sophomores in the starting 5.
Just a hunch, but I'm not 100% certain he's in the plans going forward. I thought of this before Rex even came aboard, but with him here, I'm even more curious about the team's plans regarding him. Gilmore will be getting the big-time money next offseason, leaving decisions to be made. Some might suggest they cut Leodis, but if he plays well this year, he's staying IMO. Rex will get to keep his CBs. Either way, interesting situation going forward.
I know that all if this is open to debate and none of us know....but I dont see how this is gonna happen......
Matt Darby was drafted for a reason......Stephon G. will be here.....we have Robey and Cochrel
What we dont have a lot of are quality O linemen

I say hi to my neighbors when I see them. Hello, Hi, Waive, Nod, Good morning,etc.
There is a neighbor that smokes a lot. So he goes out to his lawn area to smoke a lot. He lives like 4 homes away. My garage has space for just one car. Wife takes it. I park on the street.
Long story short I always see him there. Between 0-10 TIMES A DAY.
All 10 times I say "HI" or waive.
For example: I need to wash my car. I see him outside smoking. I say Hello. Then he goes back inside at some point.
30 minutes later I come back. Park my car. And boom out he comes out to smoke again and to say hi again. This repeats all day.
Im freaking busy. He's not.
I'm in a trap. I cant stop saying hi. But too many "hellos" is killing me now.
Suggestions?
A simple head nod will do

Right, but do you really want a guy on a one-year deal, out of football for a year plus, with an attitude problem, who hasn't played the position in years, to anchor your line?
I know Wood had his limitations last year but I have to believe a good deal of that was scheme and frustration with it, along with the turnstiles surrounding him.
Oh I am not advocating that at all....I think it is more to look at "if Wood goes down what do we do next"
Two players with C experience past wood (which is why I liked the resigning of Urbik.......Urbik and Cog....can both play C and both OG positions
If they move him to guard, that means they don't think he's one of the 2 best tackles on the team. That means they wouldn't want to pay him starting tackle money because he wouldn't be worth it in their opinion. I would be pleasantly surprised, or more likely totally shocked if Kujo and Henderson were good enough to start the season at tackle. But if they were both better than Glenn, good for the team. Glenn could decide whats best for him next year as far as a contract goes, just like every free agent does.
Then the woes of the O line would continue.....
You dont get better on the O line by continuing to revolving door it......
It is my hope that they are looking at everyone at every position to see who is versitile enough for a "plan B"
Not they I am advocating it in any way, but if he is moved to OG due to another player showing that they are a better LT than Glenn is (and that's a very big "if"), then losing him in FA would basically save $10+M in cap dollar for each of the next bunch of years.
Dibs...yeah I get it....its not what I want either.....the team cannot fall apart if we cannot resign Glenn....I just think
a. We are best served by keeping Glenn and paying him at LT
b. Moving him to OG would most certainly cause Glenn and his agent to be upset
-
About the same but 15GB a month... 4 lines though. Wife, son, daughter and myself... Just over 2 bills a month. As I shake my head in disbelief.
Oh... Verizon.
4 lines, 10 gigs of data, all 3 of my family are paying rent on that stupid new plan by ATT.....just over 2 bills a month......
-
Yeah.....I honestly think John Miller is a big reason Glenn will stay at LT
If he doesnt move to OG....he doesnt tie up a position there
Now I will say this.....I think it is important to see if Henderson at LT and Kujo at RT will work for us.....you never know what is really gonna happen when a player becomes a free agent

Alex Boone 6'8" 300 SF 49s
I wouldn't move him to guard just making a hypothetical.
BB
You make that hypothetical comment a lot......
I just wonder if you understand the implications of it.
To me Glenn is one of those guys we gotta resign.

Where does the fiduciary responsibility lie for this? http://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2015/06/who_are_the_buffalo_bills_best_and_worst_salary_cap_values_for_2015.html
Even if Wood was worth the $ that is a very high price. I wonder if Jim is "Overdorfing" it a bit.
That is what you call a "team glue" contract
Wood has been a team player through all of it.......great in the locker room......good on the field...solid overall
-
probably move him to guard if need be but he is starting
IF WE MOVE HIM TO GUARD WE WILL LOSE HIM IN FREE AGENCY
What sense does that make?

Hearing from Philly fans I know, Shady has never been the most personable of guys. His nickname comes from his mood, which tends to be melancholic. So, in Philly there was a bit of a **** storm after the Rodak interview which was poorly done by all accounts. Most of Shady's friends and family are still in the area, so I can see why he doesn't want a double dose of Rodak.
Rodak is a worm.....I would understand completely if Shady just refused to talk to him at all.
-
If I was on twitter, I sure would.
I am sure he would be moved by it.

I never had a problem with McCoy til a week ago. I said he's a bag, which was an overstatement on my part. I don't have a problem with him not wanting to answer questions from the media about the Kelly situation. It's just one small thing I want him to say before he says that he's done talking about it. I want him to say, "I've talked with Chip..." Until he does that, I think he's a bit of a coward. I don't even care if they talk and McCoy calls tells Chip he's a racist again over the phone, I just think he should man up and not avoid the person he just accused.
I am sure u should tweet this to Shady and tell him how you feel.

Expect Glenn to move to OG if Henderson and Kouandjio prove to be worthy OTs. It is GREAT NEWS to hear that the new coaching staff believes enough in both Henderson and Kouandjio to make them the starting LT and RT respectively.
When Glenn was drafted many scouts thought he was best suited to play OG. Both H & K are more athletic than he is.
The bottom line is that our O-line will be greatly improved if we can afford to put Glenn at OG.
The possible starting O-line for the "Ground and Pound" Bills:
Henderson/Incognito/Wood/Glenn/Kouandjio
Henderson/Miller/Wood/Glenn/Kouandjio
Henderson/Incognito/Wood/Miller/Glenn.
I think Kromer is serious about moving Henderson to LT because of his excellent size, reach, and athleticism. Wood will be the OC.
I expect Glenn, Incognito, Miller, Kouandjio to fight for the other three spots. Urbik will be the backup OC (and a backup OG). Richardson and T. Chandler will likely fill spots 8 ad 9 on the O-line.
To me this makes zero sense
- Glenn has been a worthy LT....last year everyone played horrible.....prior to that Glenn has been considered a gem at LT...WHY CHANGE THAT
- Who rides the bench in that situation....John Miller....the coaches appear to LOVE John Miller
IMO......the real battle is between Henderson and Kujo at RT.......if Kujo starts playing like was SUPPOSED to then that would unseat Henderson making him the swing OT.
John Miller and Cog should be the guards
-
what did he say? Is this because he refused to talk about the Eagles, has poor grammar, or did I miss something...
he answered all Bills- related questions
See Rodak's posted drivel earlier in the thread......
Personally I think that Rodak is an inciteful little worm.......so I take a lot of his stuff with a ton of salt
-
Simply making an observation.
Yeah im sorry that came across as Harsh
Shady is a diva.....but much like we need to stop hiring Church boys and start putting monsters on the field at certain positions....we will have to live with this part of Shady as long as he performs
-
Has Incognito ever in his life played Center? Don't think this is very likely.
Actually.....yes Cog has played center
-
Rodak is such a little jerk......
What would he be doing if someone wouldnt let him do this gig?
I vote for one of those people that call you on the telephone when your late paying a bill
Report: LeSean McCoy foregoes stick removal surgery; will attempt to play in 2015 with stick up his butt.
Shady is who he is......deal with it
-
There he is!
I know that people were writing Cockrell off after the Darby pick.....I didnt guy it
The kid has very good size and length....sometimes these guys need a year. He looks like a Kenny Irvin/Marlon Kerner type pick to me
-
Im telling you guys....
There is a legit chance that Tyrod Taylor starts at QB.....neither of the other QBs are cemented in enough to make it a for sure thing he does not......
-
Not last year due to the kidney infection for Glenn, but his first two years were excellent. I can't believe Kuondjo is better.
How do you know Glenn had a kidney infection? I thought the ailment was not disclosed?

Just to clarify my feelings on Orton (and they are very similar to Cassel). I LOVED Orton as a backup. I absolutely hated the idea of him as a starter. Before he started a game, I heard a DEnver sports host say that Orton was good between the 20s and struggled in the red zone. That's exactly what he did last year.
IMO, I think EJ could have been just as productive as Orton and may have improved as the season went on. Again, him and Tannehill had the same exact start to the 2014 season. But who the hell knows? And that was the killer about last season. We don't know as more about EJ, one way or the other. We don't have either Orton or Marrone (awesome!), so what was really accomplished? 9-7 has no bearing on this season.
My philosophy is very consistent. You should the high draft pick young QB get every chance to win the job over the passed around journeyman vet. Cassel and Orton are who they are at this point. Good solid careers, but who aren't going to elevate your team. I hate Johnny Football, but the Browns shoudl give him every chance to win the job over McCown.
So I never hated Orton. I just hated what he represented. And that has been Bills footbal football for the last 15 years. We have been a joke at developing QBs.
I usually agree with this....
however
I dont agree with it if you think you have a legit window of opportunity. This defense is biult to win now. We have to capitalize on that.
-
I am not personally tied to any of these QB's anymore......i dont care which one of them starts as long as they are productive at the position.
-
The lion looks so bored, too. As though it's thinking "Oh...another boxed lunch. Whatever..."
That is some funny stuff!
Big cat is like......lets mess with the human folk hardy har har

Lakers have the 2nd pick in the draft!
(oops....wrong thread.....

In years past we would have groveled at a signing like this.....screamed about his potential and measurables......
That is how far the team has come....this guy might not make it out of TC

Everyone underwhelmed on the OL last year.....
Lets see what happens this year.
