CaliBillsfan Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 This guy is a upgrade over every 1 of our LBs. Sign em for the rt price. How much is stopping the run worth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 (edited) That might have been the case last year when as a rookie, he was miscast as a strongside linebacker. But what is your view of Bradham's upside? I think he could become an excellent linebacker and I'm expecting substantial improvement this year. essentially.... when you best linebacker is viewed as having "a lot of upside" thats a terrible situation. when you have 3 established vets, with the 4th being a young guy with a lot of upside thats a great situation. i think he has a great chance to be a solid player in this league and by not dropping him in a totally dysfunctional LB unit where he cant trust the guys on either side of him his odds of achieving that go up a lot. when he can trust being between two guys like dansby and lawson he can really learn his assignments and how to play nfl linebacker. at the start of the offseason when he was penciled between moats and shepherd, i was much more cautious in my optimism. thats an additional reason that i really like the dansby idea - not just replacing sheps play, but putting bradham next to someone he can learn from.

Saint Doug Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 BTW, that reminds me. I wonder if Kas has an update from the Sundowner. I've been buried under a pile of flesh for the last 24 hours. Barack Obama could've walked in and I wouldn't have noticed. I should be more vigilant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are lost in your analysis. You are a Bills fan. I'm a little confused why you think we operate like a real franchise. You're bar is set way too high.

3rdand12 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I had hoped to have an update of sorts by this time. While at work i was leaving a tab up waiting for something anything , good. Gotta admit i have hoped for this guy to consider us and we him. so close. Some one suggested that having two veteran linebackers alongside/in between/next to etc to Bradham would be a good thing. I have to agree. Heck it might help Shepp along a bit too. It's a smart move if we can pull it off. Karlos is just too good a fit at this moment in time too pass up from where i stand for all the positive reasons already mentioned. So it's almost dinner time. Any reports ? i have barely f5'd all day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 per chris brown's twitter: @stanj62 Dansby visit is still ongoing at this hour (6 pm) OK, I'll take that as very good news! I feel if he leaves without a contract and visits the G-Men, he'll sign there. C'mon, Buddy, Jimbo, Mario, everybody! Get him inked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 We haven't heard anything for a while. Did Karlos come and leave without a contract? Did we not make an offer? Or offer too little? Does he just not like Buffalo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
