stevewin Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Caught some of the coverage on Sirius. Some things I can recall Kirwin: Noted lack of depth. Said wasn't sold on TE2, concern on swing tackle as well. Didn't seem blown away by Bills overall talent - "Bills won't be winning the SB this year", will def need to pick up people after cuts etc. Raved about Vallejo of all people - said was always in the picture around the ball - fast first step Said Ragland didnt look 100% to him (McD and Alexander comments about Ragland were also more in the vein of "he's getting there, it's going to take time") Alexander: Said he worked with Randall Cobb in the offseason to work on his coverage skills in the new scheme There was some thing I missed that they kept bringing up about the team does a thing where different players share their "stories" in front of the team as bonding exercise- that it had strong effect on some players Their final thoughts: Won't be Rome built in a day, but all phases should be improved with more attention to detail 10 coaches with more than 10 yrs experience - McD should benefit Like that they had players out on field in live action without coaches (players need to learn to do it on their own) Weak in depth at safety esp - should be looking for safety now Didn't seem very optimistic about being a playoff team Not done building expect more moves to be made Tyrod is a "leader of men" (Kirwin said reminded him of R Wilson in that respect) - needs to make it happen on the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I caught that they loved the quality and depth of the DLine. OLine starters are solid but not sure about depth. I missed any talk about RT. I wish I'd heard more, but it was bad timing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says guys really open up. Could see that it resonates with the #Bills rookie, and that the team-building exercise is one that helps players understand each other.

BillsFan17 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Really wonder how many other top tier QBS are still struggling at this point in their careers at TC. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure it takes guys sometime to get their groove back, but the guy has been in the league since 2011. Furthermore, all I hear about is how familiar TT is wirh Dennison from their days in Baltimore. Gets to a point where you realize it's just not going to fully click.
