KDIGGZ Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 don't we try and get him every offseason and every offseason he goes somewhere else? perhaps he doesn't want to play for us 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I'm thinking Luke Joeckel, but there isn't much there in FA. I actually really like Ryan Groy as a replacement for Richie. He isn't going to give you the same production, but he has potential and is on the roster. I really don't think we are in dire straits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually surprised that Groy wasn't one of our starters last year. I agree with all of your statement. So as of now it looks like: Dawkins - Groy - Bodine - Ducasse/Miller - Newhouse/Mills. I'm hoping to upgrade the right side of the line in the draft in the middle rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little worried but maybe Daboll can work some magic to cover weaknesses. I'm not worried about Dawkins, Groy or Bodine. I'm worried about our right side.

CuddyDark Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 If the Bills are ever gonna be any good they have to build a young team that wins together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Not worried about Bodine at all? He wasn’t very good and his team let him go for 2.5 mill a year. Seems like he’s a poor mans guard version of Preston brown. If he wasn’t a poor mans version he may be fine. Hopefully he fits the scheme. I’m worried though.

Going to suck next year with all this change on the OL, but Richie was gone next year anyways. Rip the band-aid off, get young blood in there, and rebuild this line for a long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, McDermott hasn't burned him out because of Dennison's crappy offense. A power run scheme better suits Miller. LT - Dawkins LG - Ducasse C - Groy RG - Miller RT - Newhouse We have players that seem interchangeable at any line position. A Dawkins injury would spell disaster though.

TigerJ Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 The unsigned free agent guards are all unsigned for a reason. Evans is 35 and doesn't have a lot in the tank. Luke Joeckel struggled to make the transition to the pro game. Trey Hopkins is limited athletically. There are probably 10 free agents out there. If Buffalo felt they needed to, they could probably bring one of them in, but don't expect an all pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 He's long past his prime. Pass. Fill another hole with a FA and draft a replacement if that's all that's available at G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interior would get smashed in pass pro. They'd better draft Jackson if that's their interior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
