John from Riverside Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Look......I dont think that Richie Icognito is a good person....... But face facts...... Playing in the middle of a offensive line is for monsters....plain and simple.... And the fact is....RIchie Incognito is a mean nasty offensive linemen who is a former pro bowler. I just hope that he isnt the ONLY free agent OL we are going to sign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Maybe our OL just got better, maybe not. We have to see what this guy looks like in camp and if he has any "personality" issues remaining. He may well not start a single game for the Bills again. We don't know yet.

Based on what they have at OG right now....even money says he does...... Richie Incognito is not old.....he is not injured......he was playing well when this whole thing with Martin went down.

Donte Whither and Andy Dalton are awesome Incognito is going to have the chance to fight for a starting spot. I want a guard that I know will start, Incognito can fight for the other spots with the other guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Player Available Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Pro bowl in 2012. He'll start. One more Guard spot to go.let's be honest when grading him a pro bowler. One year when the guy voted in to the spot bowed out. RI was up next. in his prime maybe a slightly better than average Guard. Where I think his hidden value may be is back up center if Wood goes down. i do not know how well his anger mangaemnt classes went. Since he beat the lights out of his Ferrari in 2014, in his driveway. i'll go out on a limb and say his contract is heavily incentive based. i hope he makes it. Everyone deserves a 4th chance.

Wagon Circler Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I know everyone is having fun with Pears and he did not have a good season. But remember that he may be a better right tackle than Henderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timtebow15 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The problem is that he is the sort of player that does damage in the locker room and ultimately comes back to hurt you by distracting others from playing their best. Not good for the team. He better come back changed and cut the crap. I don't want to become the team willing to play anyone. I'd rather field a team of high quality intelligent players.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Kiko isn't a 31/32 year old mental patient.What does that have to do with how well he was playing? 32 still good years left for an OG. You think he forgot how to play because he didn't play last year? A year off for him probably lengthened his playing career in terms of physically being able to perform.

If my boss hired him, I'd be looking for a new place to work.it could be a possibility but FAs still sign with teams employing Mike Vick, Riley cooper, they will sign with the team that employs AP, etc. There were several Dolphins who spoke out In support of RI when everything went down. I think most nfl players would have more of an issue playing next to Jon Martin IMO. He took internal issues public and quit on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Incognito is a good OG, and we can use all the help at that position. I don't care for the things he's done off the field, so I hope he has learned a lesson in that area. I do like that he is friends with Wood, and they can be a great pair together. My concern is how much will being away from the game for a year affect his play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
