Yeezus Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 he was good for the skins, lots of ppl in DC liked him but he is coming off a major surgery and has had troubles off the field in the past. lots of money for a risky player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USABuffaloFan Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Is he a DE or outside LB in a 4-3. My guess Alexander is gone and he plays linebacker with Bradham soon outside. Lawson and Hughes still the DE's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Barely 2 Hours ago, all the reporters "in the know" were saying there was a 3 team bidding war between Redskins, Bucs, and Patriots for Murphy. 2 hours later, he signs with the Bills.

We are definitely buying low on this guy. Similar to our approach in FA last year. 7mill per year isn't really buying that low. its around the market.

mjt328 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 The D-Line is really starting to shape up. This gives us a nice 3-man rotation with Hughes, Lawson and Murphy. I would still like to see us draft another DT to eventually take Kyle's place. Our Linebacker group still looks terribly ugly. It's hard to believe that LB hasn't become a bigger priority over the last two offseasons, considering Sean McDermott's history as a Defensive Coordinator.

Turk71 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 He was a beast at Stanford. Saw him play a lot. If he is healthy the Bills defense just got a lot better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I like him a lot. Remember him coming out. Not sure he is all that high motor like Hughes but he is solid. Hoping he can be like Lorax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 6 minutes ago, Logic said: Wow. AWESOME signing! Coming off ACL surgery, but he managed 9 sacks the year prior. Only entering his 4th year in the league. The arrow is pointing up BIG TIME with him! I didn't expect it to happen, but with the signings of Lotulelei, Williams, and Murphy, the defensive line has improved drastically. What makes this signing even better is that edge rusher is very shallow in this year's draft. OL, LBs, WR now up on the docket! I'm curious about the money, especially with him coming off an injury. Supposing that it's reasonable, I think it bolsters a weaker position. I'd prefer that we will in the positions you mentioned as well. Assuming we use both of our 1sts to get our QB., at least one of each in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, that doesn't leave a lot of gaping holes. I would use the 4th and 5th rounders to go DT and RB.
