Buffalo03 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 He was on GMFB this morning and he currently isn't on a team and it got me thinking, since Eric Wood's career is over with, why not bring in Mangold to be a bridge center for a couple years? I get he is older but he was also one of the top centers in the NFL for pretty much his entire career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I think the “bridge________” should become an official NFL position designation and rosters expanded to 75 to accommodate the influx of players. Every position, from bridge QB to bridge longsnapper, would be bolstered by new depth until “franchise” players are found at the various positions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoTier Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I loved Mangold when he came out of college (I think the Bills traded back into the first round to take John McCargo with Mangold still available) but I think that ship has sailed. The Bills need to draft a young center, even with one of their first rounders if there's a really good one available. Groy and a Day 1 or Day 2 rookie > Groy and Mangold for 2018 ... and hopefully for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Hard pass, we have a guy on the roster better than him already and much younger. I’m not sure Groy isn’t an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why some fans seem to forget that Groy is the center now and he probably is just as good as Wood would have been in 2018. The solution to the center position is already on the roster and the play out of Groy in 2018 probably will be as good if not better than Wood's in 2018.

BuffaloBillyG Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Yup. Saw a Mangold blurb on Rotoworld and said to myself "Self, I bet there's a Mangold thread on TBD by the end of the day" self said back, "Yup, I've heard of him". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groy did a mighty fine job when Eric went down. Hope the new staff likes him as well as I do. But who will be coaching him / sarc Mangold might be a nice BU/teacher if cheap. gotta draft some O Line men . at least one hopeful starter. But never a rookie at center please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Murica Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I’d rather see Groy at center and put Miller back in the starting line-up if we go back to a power run scheme. Two young and cheap starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Groy is not a good center. Never mind "He did ok filling in." He's never been good. I hope that changes, but he couldn't beat out Wood and Wood hasn't had a solid season in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
