OL is a depth problem league-wide. Many teams don’t have 5 decent starters across the OL let alone depth guys who can play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Earlier today Leslie Frazier said Shaq Lawson has his best football ahead of him, and now this. The writing is on the wall. I'm gonna guess we trade Shaq for a 4th rounder by mid-August. Qualifier to the above: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgil Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Shaq being traded would make too much sense in this regime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they like Connor McDermott and they have Newhouse as a tackle options. Whoever loses the Bodine/Groy battle will be the interior guy along with 5th round pick Wyatt Teller, thats all the roster room there is for o-line. DeBeer hoping for the practice squad.

This guys’ bio suggests a long career with Allied Van Lines more than an NFL roster spot. Consistency. He knows exactly what he’s going to get out of them as opposed to whether or not Lawson feels like being a punching bag. Sometimes a known consistency is better than hyped up potential 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artmalibu Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I believe the cap hit Shaq would leave behind makes him a lock for the 53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully a team needs a good edge setter and will give the Bills and asset for him. At this point what could they realistically fetch for him a 4th? don't Bills need a quality edge setter on the cheap as well ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 On 7/28/2018 at 4:16 PM, Logic said: Everything the Bills have done at the DE position this year (bringing in Murphy, Fede, Odighizuwa, Russell, etc) suggests that Lawson is a goner. As I see it, they're lining up a list of potential backups to Trent Murphy. #90 is as good as gone. The writing is on the wall. is Fede, Odighizuwa, Russell and these other back up DE's really going to outplay Shaq, is Shaq really that bad? Also is Lorax lining up at DE or is he in the LB corps? If Lorax is a LB then that means Shaq has to get beat out by 2 of those backup DE's to not make the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 They did this a lot in their first year as well tIncurring with the bottom half of the roster this could be motivation to get shack movie or it could simply be trying to find a back up defense of end so that they can move him for a pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 The following types of players are available for OL: Players available because scheme or coaching staff changed. Players available because teams wanted younger / healthier /cheaper. Players available because another player took the slot and too expensive as a backup. Players available because seen potential never reached It is harder to find OL players because they do not tend to be niche players like defense players other than a snapper (often not an OL) or an extra OL just used in power formations.
