Utah John Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Just wondering if Whitner ever did a wrap-up tackle in SF. I never saw him do one as a Bill. It was always an attempt to make like a missile and knock the guy off his feet, never to wrap up and bring the guy down like everyone's taught in midgets. So a player who can absorb the shot and stay on his feet will be able to recover and get big yards after contact. Does hiring Whitner make sense for the Browns? Ask yourself, would it make sense for the Bills? Get an aging pretty good player and use a lot of cash, preventing development of younger players who need playing time to mature.

YoloinOhio Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Why is there a FA Donte Whitner thread on here? Is this where bitterness meets hubris? No, it was because we are monitoring potential landing spots for Byrd where other safeties are being signed. Also why there was a Delmas thread.

It's going to be funny seeing lil donte being asked to actually make plays. He can't just run around and jump on piles and think he's good like he did in San Fran.

3rdand12 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Good for Whitner . He has had success since he left us . So maybe the drafting of wasnt so bad after all ? He is still desirable it seems and getting paid like it. Wished we went after Delmas though . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The great thing about a message board is that if you see a thread that you are not interested in because you feel it is not relevant or otherwise, you may choose not to post in it, or even open it.

Malazan Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 What are you talking about? You only seem concerned about certain threads. Specifically, this one. There's always threads about former bills players and free agents...especially at the opening of free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always threads about former bills players and free agents...especially at the opening of free agency. Most Whitner threads are filled with bitterness. I was making a joke about that fact. You seem concerned that I might be "concerned" and that is kind of funny. KD in CT seemed to get my vibe. Cheer up dude. There is a 100+ page thread of schizophrenia about Byrd that needs your immediate attention if bias detection is your thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets see how he pans out being on defense without 5 other all-pros. I think he's going to struggle mightily, but I guess we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 So they let ward and dqwell go and replaced them with whitner and dansby, each for more money? It seems.... Not as productive as some of the talking heads today are making it sound. Greenberg was calling it one of the best first days on mike and mike this morning, and acting like they were adding players to an elite defense instead of replacing losses.
