Great signing for us and gives groy serious competition, I fully expect Bodine to be the starter for us. "Bodine is the worst center I have ever seen" --longtime Bengals fan.

Dude is a beast, him and Dupree will both have an impact this year. I hope so, we need him to push for RT starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have to be all pro, but they need to be serviceable - or maybe you like the idea of McCarron getting pummeled? Buffalo's RT situation is bad. Has been for years now.

Saint Doug Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 14 hours ago, Dr. K said: One of my old friends is a diehard Bengals fan. What he says about the Bills' acquisitions from the Bengals does not speak well about McBeane and "The Process": "McCarron is a great leader, smart, relatively accurate, arm like a wet noodle. Hope the improved draft position turns out well. Bodine on the other hand is the worst center I have ever seen." So, basically Bengals fans act the same way as Buffalo fans when a player gets signed/traded away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrod's friend Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 14 hours ago, Limeaid said: So sorry they disappointed you and won games you thought (not a lot of effort there) they should have lost, lose any money betting against the Bills? Thanks for the sarcasm. You do realize that the Head Coach says his team basically has said that the team isn't nearly as far ahead as their record indicates, right? It's not what I thought,s*t for brains. It's things like pythag, it's things like your own head coach has said. Go back to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I think judging centers is really hard. I don't know a whole lot about Bodine. To really understand a center's job you have to know which protection is called etc etc. What I do know is we only got one sack against the "terrible" Bengals O-line and just 2 sacks in two years. I know people who analyze these films and stuff for the internet are, for the most part, good at what they do. I don't put a lot of weight on their center grades just because the center has such a complicated job and you would have to know the game plan and protection scheme. Protections can be rather complicated depending on the front and who you are sliding to and such. I'm not sure some guy at PFF would be privy to that information. I suppose it is good competition for Groy. I still don't understand why they didn't try Groy at RG. Also Newhouse has some experience at guard as well. Could we see him kick into guard where his pass protection woes might not be as bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDermott & Beane came in and changed the blocking system, turning an successful o-line into a mediocre one.

hmsmystic Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I'm at a loss to understand so much nastiness about these signings?? 1) Bills have no money=no premium lineman free agents 2) Center just retired by surprise, so a 25 year old 4 year starter is signed to a reasonable deal 3) Thin at tackle with Hendersen and Glenn gone- go get a tackle with plenty of starting experience 4) I don't think many people, myself included, are qualified to judge oline play with any finality. Don't go find quotes from a Benals fan or Blogger and all of a sudden that opinion is a fact 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are hurting for a right tackle and they get rid of Glenn, creating a weakness. They did not need to do so. Now they have to scramble to come up with some barely adequate--if that--replacement.
