1st Ammendment NoMas Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 we're short LB so either PS or right to active. I'm sure they are looking at a few guys today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Physically, he's the same type of linebacker that Milano is: a bit on the small side and fast. He times faster than Milano. Obviously, having been cut by a couple teams in the last two years, those teams must think there was something missing in his game. Maybe the light will come on in McDermott's defense. If not, he's a bandaid, a player to help the Bills finish the season. If he plays up to his athleticism, he could turn out to be more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I was looking at a couple different sources, both of which reported his weight as 231. One of those was he weight during the draft process, so obviously that was out of date. I see that NFL.com reports his weight as 245. I'm guessing McDermott might actually like to see his weight closer to 230. Hard to imagine he can still run a 4.51 40 at 245 lbs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I remember him playing really well against us last year. Being all over the field. Plus he has intimate knowledge of both the Lions and Patriots schemes, and they just happen to be our next two opponents. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEN-CAL17 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Josh Allen OLB/Edge Kentucky is definitely on the table picks 4-10 where ever we land. Id be happy with that pick too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Cool article on how we was used in New England in a variety of ways. https://theathletic.com/238525/2018/09/03/pff-marquis-flowers-usage-shows-how-matt-patricia-values-versatility/ I hope we sign him and keep him around next year. He would be nice depth at the linebacker spot we lack right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They put a linebacker on IR so they called up a safety from the practice squad. Perhaps they still sign him if they IR Anderson or waive Damarion Scott.

If he's there when we pick, we'd have to strongly consider it. He's exactly the kind of player that could make the defense elite. Those guys do not come around very often. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a great fit for the scheme and he can do multiple thins, like an eventual replacement for Lorax. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's gonna end up going top 5, so there's a good chance we don't have a shot at him. Definitely not in favor of moving up as we have so many needs on offense. Just wouldn't want to pass him up if he's the best available player because it is a position of need on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes top 10 for sure, but I think Bosa, a quarterback or two, and 3 d lineman go first. #6 makes sense. I could also see some stupid ass team reaching for offensive tackles early.

I believe you meant Mercury btw : ) linebackers it seem are really scheme fits after some years in the NFL with out finding a home and Coaching staff that loves what aid player can do well/best. Keep bringing them in. as mentioned, worth asking about the Lions after and perhaps getting him to PS.
