Mike in Syracuse Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Kyle Williams has got to be absolutely giddy right now. With the addition of Dareus he might actually get to take a snap without automatically having to fight through a double team on every play. The addition of Dareus will also improve our LB corps. I've never been the biggest Poz fan but with the upgrades on the OL they might actually be able to attack a gap without having to fight off a free roaming OL on every play.

Max997 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 (edited) If the Bills are sticking with the 3-4 Id really like to see Williams play DE opposite Dareus with Troupe at NT Williams and Dareus could move inside on obvious passing situations Edited April 29, 2011 by Max997 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In simplier terms - you don't want Kyle Williams to play DE in the 3-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In simplier terms - you don't want Kyle Williams to play DE in the 3-4. Agreed. That move would minimize his primary athletic asset. He is just fine where he is.

Max997 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 as good as Williams is he isnt a NT and in my opinion would be better suited playing DE in a 3-4 or DT in a 4-3 DE's in a 3-4 are run stoppers first and there isnt much difference in playing DE in a 3-4 and DT in a 4-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In simplier terms - you don't want Kyle Williams to play DE in the 3-4. I think it's mandetory if you are going to post on this board, you have to grasp and use such terms. I mean really, don't all of us welcome 2-gap responsiblity? How we post "in space" or with our "hand on the ground" says something about who we are as fans. Jeezy Creezy son, don't be a WILL, be a SAM and embrace 0-3-5 technique lingo. Either that or say 220- 330, whatever it takes...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Agreed. That move would minimize his primary athletic asset. He is just fine where he is. Bull. When he was moved to NT everyone said "He's too small" "It doesnt play to his talents" etc... and he ended up a Pro Bowler. At DL you get your best guys on the field. And in the Bills case that will be Williams-Troup-Dareus. And for everyone's reading enjoyment, and for anyone who wants to learn more about the different DL techniques, I present possibly the best football article Ive ever read: http://www.buffalorumblings.com/2011/1/11/1927873/examining-multiple-defensive-fronts-featuring-kyle-williams They outline how Williams can be utilized in all of these fronts, and as a 3-4 DE.

Wagon Circler Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Still see us as being a 4-3 team on first down with Williams and Darius at tackle and Edwards, Kelsey, or Carrington at end. Bring in Merriman to rush on 3rd down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Bills!! Dareus can also play multiple positions. With those two moving around, it will definitely be a fun thing to watch. Offensive linemen will suddenly have to decide who gets double teamed and when. Linebackers will suddenly have open access to holes because offensive linemen will be tied up at the line of scrimmage. God forbid that Kyle Williams or Marcel Darius are left in one on one situations. We got very lucky with this pick. Hope we get some linebackers now.
