ukbuffalo Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Hi , I am a uk born and based buffalo fan , and have been for the past 5 years since getting into NFl at university . A collegue from work is travelling to America this weekend and has offered to get a jersey from the NFL for me ( first proper one ) . Struggling to decide which player to get. I am currently wrestling between Edmunds or Milano . Any suggestions ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillies Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Can't go wrong with either... but Milano is quickly becoming a favorite of mine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Murica Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I'd probably go with Edmunds due to the number 49, and he was their first round which leads me to believe he will stick with the franchise throughout his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffaloboyinATL Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Edmunds has the better chance of long term success. You could also go Phillips who many hope will have a Kyle Williams like tenure in Buffalo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Depends...if you want the investment to last for as long as possible, your best bet is Edmunds, since he's on year 1 of a 5-year rookie contract. Milano is in year 2 of a 4-year contract. Neither is a bad choice player-wise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Better to get a great like Jim, Thurman, or Bruce. Players these days are lucky to be on the team for 2-3 years then you have to buy another jersey! I have a closet full of regret 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da webster guy Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 They're both playing good ball this season. Milano is really a pleasant surprise, becoming more consistent and playing like a madman out there. Tremaine is still a good year or two away from rounding into form. Neither one of them are thumpers, but boy as far as running with and covering TE's and RB's goes, those two are among the best in the league. The new age LB, drafted with that in mind. You can't go wrong either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaMilBill Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I have a criteria for buying a jersey. The guy had to be on the team for at least 6 years and a Fan Favorite. Got tired of buying jerseys like Lynch and Whitner. Only guy that meets that criteria is Kyle Williams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I like Milano a lot, but McDermott will upgrade that position when he gets the chance. If there is a chance to grab a Lavonte David type, he will do it. Also, if this regime gets fired at some point (please no one turn this into a fire McDermott debate, I'm just saying in terms of keeping a long term jersey) and we bring in a 3-4 defense again, Milano will be gone. He is exclusively a 4-3 WILL. He also, technically, will only have two years left on his rookie deal after this season. I think you have to go Edmunds. He is a first round pick they traded up for and very young. He will be around for awhile. The other thing about Edmunds, is that he is scheme versatile. In fact, many draftniks loved him as a 3-4 OLB edge player. He could also play inside in a 3-4 and could probably play defensive end. He's faster than most safeties as well. If at some point there is a regime change and we wind up in a 3-4 again, Edmunds still fits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zonabb Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Don't get a name. Wear the jersey and that's good enough. There's a point in adulthood where wearing the name of someone younger on your back becomes, or should become, passe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence my last couple jerseys being Freddie Jackson and Kyle. Other than those guys, I only buy Bills legends - you can't go wrong with a Thurman, Jimbo, Bruuuuce, Reed, and on and on, jersey! That said, both Edmunds and Milano seem like good choices - gotta support the kids too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much risk that the younger guys may not be on the team in say 5 years from now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Someday Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Based on where you live, I'd probably go with one of the Bills legends so you get more longevity out of it. I also have a closet full of former players that didn't quite pan out as I would have hoped. Another option is get a custom jersey with your name & favorite number on it.
