Gilmore & Glenn High Bust Potential?

To be fair, anyone drafted by the Bills has a high bust potential. We aren't exactly known for developing star players lately.

 

Hopefully that'll change with the new FO/Coaching staff.

sure we are known for developing players... We just are also known for not renewing contracts of said developed players.

If Glenn has to be your LT then he has bust potential but at the very worse he backs up LT, LG, RG, RT at a very high level and only because Hairston, Levitre, Urbik, and Pears are playing lights out.

 

Does Gilmore have bust potential? yeah but only because all CBs have bust potential it's probably the hardest position to play because so much is out of your control- but my take is that the Bills defensive line is probably going to help Gilmore feel pretty comfortable and be pretty successful in his Rookie year.

Yeah like Wilson, Jackson, Kyle Williams & Stevie Johnson. They came fully developed or we did not renew their contracts.

According to the rankings they post in the video Glenn was the 19th best player in the draft and we got him in the 41st(?) spot. How is this a bad move for the Bills? And they consider his solely as an inadequate tackle, isn't his appeal in his ability to play multiple spots? Also, didn't a fourth rounder start the majority of the snaps last year and do so well that the Bills didn't resign their old starter?

 

Maybe Gillmore will have trouble adjusting to the game and be unable to be a stand out corner but don't call CJ Spiller a bust. http://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2012/05/08/2011s-best-performances-running-backs/

 

Leodis Mckelvin is a bust and his great physical talents do not translate into CB skills. A better comparison point than CJ would be the very real possibility the Bills just drafted the next Leodis.

This Nowraki guy really needs to stop questioning the intelligence of players. Especially when he hasn't even met them. He did it last yr in his Rediculous analysis of Cam, and now he's doing it again with Glenn. The guy is an idiot, so I'm not really taking ANYTHING this clown says seriously

As I'm sure you realized when you watched that video, he was relating the "word around the league" on Gilmore and Glenn, not his own opinion.

 

That, and $1.50, will get you a cup of coffee...

Nawrocki is the guy who said Cam was garbage and going to bust. He thought Maybin was a sure fire HOFamer. Enuf said about him.

Nothing to worry about Gilmore. He is a phenomenal athlete. His ball skills might not be on par with Mo Claiborne but he is faster, a better tackler and more dangerous coming off the edge. He is also extremely serious about his profession and has an outstanding worth ethic. He was a good student and is of impeccable character. For those who have'nt noticed yet he is also extremely confident. He is a very low risk pick with great upside. I think he will shine.

Glenn's upside is probowl left tackle. His downside is probowl RT or guard. Also a first rate person.

Actually, the Bills had an absolutely fantastic draft. Talent, value & need. Check.
