row_33 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) we will always have the memories.. can't even post Carpenter shanks to this site... Edited March 6, 2017 by row_33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDO'Kearney Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Oh don't worry. The next kicker will have just as many apologists. You're right. New policy. Miss a kick, you're cut. Every time. Practice, game, I don't care. We need some accountability around here, and we don't have it unless kickers are getting cut. That said, there aren't any numbers that led me to believe Carpenter should have stayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boater Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 The CB depth in the 2017 draft runs deep, so the Bills must think they can find a suitable replacement for NRC. Not saying Robey was great, but I find it hard to believe with our CB position as bad as it is that we can replace him with a FA that plays as well as he did for under 1.5 Million dollars. Seems like yet another wtf action by the Bills management. Yeah, I read that the draft is rich in CB talent. No need for a costly FA CB... the draft can bring someone in.

FireChan Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Yeah, I read that the draft is rich in CB talent. No need for a costly FA CB... the draft can bring someone in. Just like Kevon Seymour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBud420 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Maybe you're right, but is NRC a franchise slot corner? I don't see him leading us to a Super Bowl, so better to just get rid of him now. He is a top 5 slot corner for sure. I don't know if you can be a franchise slot corner. Nevertheless we won't get anyone even close for 3 mil cap hit or whatever it was.

Wagon Circler Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 For the record, DC departs as the Bills 6th all-time leading scorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PO16FFS Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Luckily we have a great replacement that we drafted a few years ago. I believe he's ready to be successful for the Bills: Dustin Hopkins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billspro Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I think the Bills will likely add 2 CBs in this draft. I would guess round 2 and round 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilly Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I predict by April 28th, this will be Bill in NYC after all the DBs we've drafted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Say hello to Captain Munnerlyn. To hell with a captain, we need at least a major if not a colonel. You know that Sanborn will be signed by the patriots* and get a ring this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefan66 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Don't like the move to cut NRC. Don't have a ton of quality depth at CB, and don't like the idea of adding through the draft as we need safety's and WR's also. As far as Carp. I know he had a less than stellar past 2 years. Not sure there is anyone currently available that is any better, unless you draft someone. Again, don't have a ton of picks and a lot of needs. Must be planning on being very active in FA.

Rockpile233 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 And even more people demanding the new kicker be cut. If he's one of the statistically worse kickers over the past two seasons, sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iinii Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Now we need a punter, kicker and long snapper and you must be sound in the kicking game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeF Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) NRC got benched last year. Some relevant stats Edleman vs Bills: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/E/EdelJu00/gamelog/?opp_id=buf Gronk vs. Bills: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/G/GronRo00/gamelog/?opp_id=buf Landry vs. Bills http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/L/LandJa00/gamelog/?opp_id=buf Decker vs. Bills http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/D/DeckEr00/gamelog/?opp_id=buf He was great in hand to hand combat and one on one coverage and a really good playmaker....but he left us exposed a lot. McDermott is a Johnson disciple -- get pressure quickly with the front 7 so corners don't have to cover long. He likes taller corners. I loved Robey but this is $1.5M in cap room the Bills can really use. Carp was great 2 years ago -- automatic. But the last two years have been tough. These aren't bad decisions in my opinion.

thunderingsquid Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 WTF would they release Coleman? All that dude did was make plays...strange decision...maybe he doesn't fit what they are looking to do...you could see Carpenter coming from a mile away tho... A LOT of missed takles, see similar post re: NRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
