JPS Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 (edited) Maybe the guy to supplement or replace Wood is already on the Bills roster. David Snow played over 20 games in college at center. I know he went to Texas and that usually spells bust for us, but maybe that doesn't apply to UDFAs. Edited December 5, 2012 by JPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACor58 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Not sure. Sounds like Urbik is moving to C and Snow will be playing RG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhg Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 At the very least, it's good to know we have another option at center if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPS Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 I know Urbik will play there this year, prob because they don't want to trust Oline calls to a very green rookie, but Snow is a center and has pretty good size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaattMaann Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 ill wait to judge, but Buddy has had good success with bum linemen that he "discovers"....heres to hopin he found another serviceable lineman to fill in for our glass like line (I hate to say it, but Wood is fragile) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbillsfan Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Urbik filled in nicely last year. Another reason he should be signed to a long term deal Urbik filled in nicely last year.

Another reason he should be signed to a long term deal You can say that again. I agree with JPS, Snow is too green (at least he's not yellow) to put in at starting center. If he plays well the rest of the way, I expect they will groom him as the backup to Wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumbalaya Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I think its time to draft Woods replacement. The guy is good but cannot stay on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikef272002 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 We had good Wood all year long, but our Wood is down now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UConn James Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Was it Levitre that was tried at Center last year (or the year before?) after a Wood injury and he totally flopped before they kicked him out to LT? Who took over when Wood was injured? Colin Brown has been the backup center all season. I get that they want to get the Best 5 out there, but snapping seems to be something that you have to stay up on, not just pick it up cold in a week.

Fixxxer Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I would have liked to see Colin Brown get more snaps. It's a shame we lost him and Reinhart so early in the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElMarko Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Does anyone remember watching Snow in the pre-season? We was absolutely horrific in his bad play. Remember the drive where they had 6 cracks to run it in from the 4? Snow was at guard on those plays and was pushed back into the runner on 3 of them.

Levitre shifted to C only after Kraig Urbik got hurt. Urbik went from RG to C when Wood went down and Chad Rinehart replaced Urbik at RG. Once the Levitre experiment fizzled, I believe Colin Brown filled in at C. Colin Brown has been on IR for several weeks now. The C/G signed to replace him and/or Chad Rinehart (also on IR) is David Snow, and is expected to start at RG while Urbik once again fills in at C.

JPS Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Who knows if David Snow is the answer. My only point is that he had over 20 starts at Center for a very good Texas program. I would say that should count for something, but there's the Williams boys (Mike and Aaron) destroying that concept. Brings another question. If the Bills had the #1 pick and the consensus #1 pick was another Texas guy named Williams, do you think they flinch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
