Nanker Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 As others have pointed out this draft broke the mold of Buddy's past drafts. To me that symbolizes that Whaley had a greater influence on this particular draft. It is the end of May this signing does not realy signify anything really substantial... I think you and the others are wrong. I think Buddy was joined-at-the-hip with his Head Coach and just drafted players that the HC wanted and that would fit into his system. Clearly that's why he took Spiller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ennjay Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 One thing it means, just like the draft and some other signings (Rogers, Kaufman, . . .): don't get too comfortable if your last name is Smith or Easley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigK14094 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 This one makes my head hurt a little. they have a lot of receivers, and many of them are their pickups...meaning they are at least somewhat invested in these guys. So, this pickup has another source.....maybe looking for receivers that can do practice squad....or maybe they have already written off Kaufmann because of lack of speed. And Smith and Easley. Easley was a 4 pick, but missing all that time...and likely no longer practice squad elgible.....anyhow this new signee would ,at least , be practice squad elgible. Could also be that the Bills have some insight that we don't know, Maybe Whaley likes this guy, or scouted him, or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in San Diego Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Some body has got to go get the pizza and soda's! DeMarco is that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterlaw Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Is DeMarco eligible for the Practice Squad if he played (dressed) for 12 games for Arizona in 2011. Same issue for Kevin Elliott who played 13 games for the Jags in 2012. Also not sure on Marcus Easley eligibility for PS. Been around for 3 seasons, but long term injuries and has played only 3 games. Is there not a 9 game restriction? (Meaning DeMarco & Kevin will be not qualify for PS).

peterlaw Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Sometimes guys are signed for special teams. Played 12 games for Arizona. Has 1 career tackle. So maybe not a Special Teams Ace. Good luck to DeMarco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
