Should turn the tower into a dollar sign.

Maybe, but I don't think they spent the draft pick to keep him on the ps. If he shows any ability to kick the professional football in the preseason he would get poached. In the end he seems like a good enough athlete to get the holding done well and change his kicking style enough to hang it as well as be more directional. For me the bigger issue with bojo was his holding, I think we'll let Matt work things out as we go along.

I'll take this the other way - since Araiza isn't good at pooching it and not a proven holder, we're going for it from our 40 and closer and not kicking field goals unless it's 4th and 10+. We'll let our defense get some work if we have to.

When I first saw it I thought Lorenzo Alexander replacement. Just a jack of all trades guy with good instincts and character. Plus it seems like they see him backing up both spots, I don't think they see him as just a backup, he's another piece to make the defense more multiple.i assume they saw something in the kc game where they could use him. Maybe they think he is a better match up on Kelce?

Letting punts hit was pretty much Hyde's modus operandi. It seems to me Mckenzie is not changing his ball security technique or something else the coaches are concerned about and that's leading to the quick pull.

Kromer coming in, Dorsey taking over, the mentions of needing to run the ball by McBeane over the last year or so, the Oline they are bringing in all seem to be pointing to more emphasis on the run game to me. Seems like we will be running the ball more often and Josh should see his number of carries drop.

S RB TE OL CB WR Blue

Seems like it to me.

So would you consider them the guards of the defense? 😁

That would be impressive

I'm always stocked up on food. This body doesn't build itself!

Nice. I was going to go with "Looking for your wallet"

Don't know if he would need a new contract. Who's going to throw him the ball next year and beyond? He might be ok catching some JA bombs next year and then hitting the market. Especially when we make a deep run in the playoffs.

Considering the Giants have oline issues, Dawkins might appeal to them. Dabol could also want Knox, but either way the Giants will know how we value our vets and would have an advantage in putting a package together. But, as I've looked at these drafts it seems like a move up via the Eagles to 19 would get us above the steelers and pats or even up to 16 to get us above the chargers. Don't have an idea of how a trade would look with them though.

I would like the guy who is going to help us win next year. I don't want to split hairs about it, get the best guy to help us win next year.

The door has swung wide open to continue hoarding DL. Maybe the broken kid from UM will be the pick.

Unfortunately the slap will embolden others to do the same if they feel offended. Smith does need to be reprimanded in some way with the way laws are written. As an aside, I would rather stuf like this wasn't assault because I think it is good for some physical release, too much emotion is held inside and bottle up, which then can blow up in a very bad way.

It would have been, but with the salary cap looming I think the roster decisions need to be adjusted. Really there have been some head scratchers on the oline anyway, Mongo and Spain seem to have been bad re-signs and probably contributed to Bobby Johnson heading out. I'm thinking Kromer might have more confidence in coaching up a youngster instead of hanging on to a vet due to his experience in the league. In the end, there's a lot of hand wringing this off season about holes and contracts. I was merely pointing out beane was thinking about these two positions last off season with the guys that got plucked so it's pretty safe to assume he has a plan this offseason too, even if it hasn't come to fruition yet.

Agree. Will also add if Anderson and wildgoose had not been plucked off the ps we'd be looking better right now. So beanes process is good, we might need to shift our 53 man roster thought process in the future.

Let's try him at CB2 for a few weeks

Wasn't he Arnold Palmers nephew or something?

I always thought the Bills put that out there themselves, they would have been highly motivated for Josh to drop.

Well, when things are basically secret, the band is not there to welcome him. Kind of gives you an idea of what it takes to be the unknown team in the mix.

Nice to see you back, it's been awhile.

Don't we need a replacement for Klein too?
