BadtasteinQBs Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 What are we doing at LB? We had several guys in a couple days ago. No signings. I wonder if we have standing offers out, and those players are evaluating... Maybe we expect to draft bodies there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Would like to see a trade. Hoping the visits were trying to put pressure on team for a trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuru4 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I keep saying lb is our biggest issue besides qb. Lorax is old and too slow to play 4-3 olb. Humber is just ok. Milano is our only valid lb. We have next to zero cap space and are probably going to give up a ton to trade up for a qb. Hopefully we hold onto a second and third for lb’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably the weakest position on the roster right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flmike Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 LB, WR and OL are very weak areas. I see Beane standing pat at no. 12 and trying to rebuild the roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 My guess is they gave the same standing offer to Compton, Minter, and Dansby and are waiting to see who takes the offer. I hope they are looking into Shea McClellin, if he's healthy, would be a great add. Maybe they stay at 12 and 22 and take Smith/Edmunds and LVE?

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 You basically want two big DT's to keep the LB's clean and 2 Lavonte David type LB's. I see two LB's in this draft that could be David clones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBonhamRocks Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Milano, Alexander, Humber, and probably one of those FAs we hosted. If we can get a top guy in the draft, then that would be awesome, but more likely a Jewell or Scales later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I wouldn't be shocked if we stayed put, and drafted QB & LB with our first-round picks. If the Bills have decided they like Mason Rudolph, it wouldn't surprise me if they went LB first. I know this is a new front office, but that would be a very Bills move. The only time the Bills have ever drafted a QB with their first pick was EJ Manuel - and that was after trading down from their original pick. So the Bills have never actually drafted a QB with the earliest pick they held in a given draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure we had 8 mil before signing the center and rt 8 mil after what needs to be pulled aside for draft picks and emergency fa signings during the season in case of injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I'd feel much better if Compton gets signed, then we can at least go into the draft without our hands tied. Compton could start at MLB if we have to give up the farm for a QB. If we stay at #12, we'll probably draft LB at 22 and Compton is, at worst, very good depth.

He's my favorite in terms of fit of the guys we brought in and apparently took a physical. Wondering what the holdup is on that front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
