Wayne Arnold Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 He is literally the only backup at that position so that would make him an option Henderson is the backup LT. Kouandjio backs up Mills at RT. *cries* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 The Bills kicked the tires. If he leaves without a contract so be it. Slauson and his agent know there are going to be injuries in camp, someone will need his services. IF the Bills did not offer a deal Slauson thought was good enough he will wait. I do not think the Bills should over pay for his services, I was ok with heading into camp with what the Bills have/ see what cuts are made later in the summer and camp. I think Slauson would provide nice depth and flexibility, but i trust Whaley and the Bills FO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I'm hoping for them to make a deal. I think Slauson would add great depth to our O-Line. I'm not giving up on Miller, I just want to make sure we have as many good options that we can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrobot Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I don't see how a 30-year old with short arms who hasn't played RT is an upgrade there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Regardless of what we think, Slauson will not be terribly interested in being a "depth" acquisition. He has played very well, so I'm sure in his mind he's looking for the best opportunity for him to be the starter, wherever on the line that may be, and wherever that gives him the best deal.

beerme1 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Ok I just got home. I don't understand. Why hasn't this happened? Did he not see Rex's truck? Rob's car? Ralph's Taurus? This should have happened by now. Maybe checking out Chippewa on a Friday night? Ok then this happens tomorrow afternoon of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Somebody send him a pizza with his name written on it with pepperoni! Thick cut? Just a little burnt around the edges? On a slightly greasy but deep bed of cheese? That offsets the WNY taxes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KOKBILLS Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I don't see how a 30-year old with short arms who hasn't played RT is an upgrade there. I agree...He's an OG...My main thought concerning Slauson is that he's an upgrade from Urbik...Beyond that though...I don't know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Cue the deer thanks Exactly. I've slightly amended it. The rally call when we have a confirmed visitor is "release the deers" There's a progression of Billsisims: Release the deers Fire up the Taurus F5 Ground up in the freezer Ralph is cheap still haven't figured out F5 and ground up in freezer or the Taurus for that matter.

GunnerBill Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 http://m.buffalobills.com/team/depth-chart.html You do realise that on that depth chart Henderson is not there because he ended the season on IR? If Henderson is not good to go the Bills will have to pick up help at offensive tackle. There is no way they go into the season with just Glenn, Mills and Kujo.

Well the original post I was replying to said if they get Slauson, who is a G, then they could free up room by cutting Kujo which is a silly thing to say considering that at this point Kujo is our only backup LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 The other point is Kujo's money is a sunk cost. You would only cut him if he's a luxury. Since we need back up lineman, we really have to keep him. My hope is we can pick up Slauson and provide nice depth on the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henderson is still a big question mark at this point. I don't think they would be looking at Slauson at RT if Henderson was healthy. That's pretty telling. So until we here otherwise then Kujo is backup LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 http://m.buffalobills.com/team/depth-chart.html That depth chart is old. It still lists Mario as starting at DE. You do realise that on that depth chart Henderson is not there because he ended the season on IR? If Henderson is not good to go the Bills will have to pick up help at offensive tackle. There is no way they go into the season with just Glenn, Mills and Kujo. Well the original post I was replying to said if they get Slauson, who is a G, then they could free up room by cutting Kujo which is a silly thing to say considering that at this point Kujo is our only backup LT Henderson was the backup LT before being put on IR. Meaning if Glenn got hurt, Henderson would play LT and Kujo would play RT. Then when Mills was signed, they started him and made Kujo the backup at both spots.

I'm pretty sure this is right on the mark, and that's why Rex was non-committal about him. He would be good depth, but if he sees himself as a starter... it's well, a non-starter. thanks still haven't figured out F5 and ground up in freezer or the Taurus for that matter. common man! how long youse been around hear? you learn nuttin?

White Linen Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 well, this tells us nothing, every team made Mario a non-factor Every team stopped Mario? You're post was very informative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
