machine gun kelly Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 the real problem with a young team is contrary to what these posts indicate, EJ will be fine in time, and is cheap. We paid a ton for Mario, and you can only have so many really high paying guys. Our problem is not locking guys up early as it is cheaper. We blew it in Levitre as I believe we could have locked him down at 3.75-4 mil after year two. We're staring down CJ, not sure what happens with Byrd, then CG, and so on. mario will have to restructure in the end or gone. we'll see how good whaley is as a gm. He came from the Steelers and although they don't look solid now, have been the gem of the league forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Not bad for a guard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clearwater cadet Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Thanks, now you jinxed him. He will be on IR by monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Cool, so how long until we trade him?? Or retards on this board call for him to be traded?? LT's can play for 8-10 yrs. This organization drafted three RB's in the first round - one with a shattered knee - compared to only two offensive lineman. That is how you miss the playoffs for 13 years.

DanInUticaTampa Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Move him to LG. Hairston at LT. Pears stays at RT Glenn was a bruising run blocker in college. This might be a quick fix for our Colin Brown problem. Harriston can't do much at LT from the IR. Good news is that it is easier to find a guard than an LT, so it can't be that hard to find one better than what we have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Under the new CBA, rookies can't sign new contracts until after their 3rd season. Its precisely the reason Colin Kapernick didn't receive a new contract last offseason. The 49ers must wait until this upcoming offseason for their 1st chance to give him a new deal. ^^^^^^^^ THIS!!!

Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I think he is probably the reason why we didn't lock up Levitre. He is playing well and is only going to get better. foolish mistake as he cant play guard and tackle, like they thought. Still think he could be the best in the league at LG...if they moved him there. especially after we draft Taylor Lewan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Angel Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 No one can make a play on Cordy because the revolving door next to him is much closer to the QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zazie Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 No one can make a play on Cordy because the revolving door next to him is much closer to the QB. valid note. Brown is making money for Cordy, game by game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Doug Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I think he is probably the reason why we didn't lock up Levitre. He is playing well and is only going to get better. "Locking him up" won't make a difference. If, at any point in the near future, he feels he wants to play for a different team or wants to be paid more, a long-term contract wouldn't matter. See: Peters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Still think he could be the best in the league at LG...if they moved him there. Why would you take a high performing LT and move him to LG? That is ass backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malazan Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 (edited) He's a hidden gem at this point. A good team would lock him up long term asap. They can't. He's in his second year. My mind is slowly shredded by Bills fans and their ridiculous crusades. Edited September 27, 2013 by jeremy2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Why would you take a high performing LT and move him to LG? That is ass backwards. +1. LT is one of the most critical roles on the team and much harder to find than a guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 (edited) I'm very comfortable with Glenn's pass protection. I'd like to hear people's thoughts and observations about his run blocking. Cue up the KC game from last season or any game before he got injured for that matter. That will tell you all you need to know about his run blocking. Different schemes this year and more bunched formations, but he's more than holding his own and regularly moves his man. His man seldom gets the first hit. GO BILLS!!!

HeHateMe Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 +1. LT is one of the most critical roles on the team and much harder to find than a guard. This^ why is it continually brought up on this board?? Why take a dominant LT and plug him in another position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 It might be an idea if Hairston was not on the PUP list. Maybe next year. The only scenario I can see for Glenn going to G is if they drafted a blue chip LT that's already better than Glenn. I thought there was a possibility of them doing that this year if one of the top two dropped to them in the draft. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orton's Arm Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 It's actually kind-of hard to say, because runs left almost always get blown up by whoever Colin Brown fails to block, rendering Glenn's effort completely irrelevant. Overall, though...looks pretty strong at the point of attack, as far as I can tell. Thanks. Cue up the KC game from last season or any game before he got injured for that matter. That will tell you all you need to know about his run blocking. Different schemes this year and more bunched formations, but he's more than holding his own and regularly moves his man. His man seldom gets the first hit. GO BILLS!!! I appreciate this post as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladiebla Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Dont forget one of the reasons Glenn plays so well is that the defense targets Colin Brown instead of the left outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
