xxxxxxxx Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) He actually recieved alot of positive press during training camp and during practices. And quite a few analysts had him pegged as a sleeper who would eventually start. If I recall correctly, he reportedly looked great before contact was introduced to practice, and then his his lack of size (he might have been in the 215-220 range)showes through, leading to the early cut. It was weird. And seen as an example of Buddy being out of touch with the coaching staff. And if memory serves me correct, it was not lb deapth that was the problem, but the logjam at wr with David Nelson taking his roster spot. And while this may sound strange, I actually think that was the right call at the time. Nelson didnt put up big numbers, but he was pretty clutch on third down.

Thank god we Beane running the show. They haven’t brought him back. I said I wouldn’t be surprised if they did. Also, considering everything is different now 6 years later - The roster, scheme, coaching staff, FO, and player itself - not sure why you find this so incredulous.

T master Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I was hoping he would stick with the Bills when they drafted him, that was when Pettine was here i think ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite Poster Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) He has literally never played well. You guys just like his name ffs. The dude has 22 tackles over 5 years and people are seriously saying nice depth pickup. I am at a loss for words at some of the baseless, factless commenting here.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 21 hours ago, mschifano said: I think the eventual replacement for Alexander is already on the team and it’s Edmunds. But for the time being it may be a draft pick but they better be in the mold of Edmunds and can play both inside and outside. I could be wrong, but I think McDermott believes Edmunds is his MLB of the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
