A key move like that kind of unlocks the rest of the offseason. If we can corral a RT, a C, and a TE, everything changes.

GunnerBill Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 2 hours ago, H2o said: Quinn and Daryl Williams would be good by me. Can't really say I'm overly interested in anyone else. Suh was basically nonexistent last year and that was playing beside Aaron Donald. Parker is a walking injury report. Stills is just another straight line speed WR, but I would take him at the right price. Ju'Waun James would be a nice get as well if we can't get Williams. The question in all of this is what are we planning to do with Dawkins? Is he staying at LT or are we kicking him inside? That will dictate the OL moves. Suh showed up suddenly in the playoffs. He plays when he wants to. That is my concern with him and I wouldn't want to commit big $$ which he will command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people didn't like Stevie Johnson and his recruiting efforts didn't pan out, but I appreciated his efforts to promote Buffalo and the Bills. If you follow him on Twitter, SJ13 is still putting a lot of effort into promoting Buffalo and the Bills. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Phillips does not want to play behind Suh again. That's the last person he'd be trying to recruit.

MJS Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Also interesting from the interview, I thought, was when Tasker was asking him what a 3 technique does and why it's important. Phillips really struggled to give an answer to that. Tasker basically had to tell him what a 3 technique does and why it's important and how it different from other DT or NT spots. Made me sceptical of whether or not Phillips is smart enough or studious enough to be a good starter in the future. He seemed lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bing Bong Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 11 hours ago, BillyWhiteShows said: Suh doesn’t seem like much of a “process” guy dirty player sure. He balled out in the SB compared to Aaron Donald IIRC. Don't really want him terribly but he's not necessarily a team killer, or a bad influence, or anything. By all appearances a hard worker even with money. AFAIK his only bad reputation stems from playing dirty. So I don't really know what a "process" guy is supposed to be lol. I don't love Suh but if a few malicious fines DQs you from being a process guy we're filtering down our talent pool on the defensive side to a really small group.. if Suh doesn't fit the bill.

Punching Bag Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 18 hours ago, EasternOHBillsFan said: Suh would be VERY expensive and a waste of FA money. He won't come to Buffalo. Sure he will. He used to come to Buffalo once a year when playing for Phish. He will probably be in an opposing jersey visiting Buffalo this year (approximately 1/4 chance - 8 visiting teams not counting playoffs out of 31 possible visiting teams). I agree about Suh and not think Bills want a player who would stomp on other players but not T*m Br*dy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I know a lot of young guys have no idea who Jim Kelly is, but with a little Googling they figure out. JK is great ambassador for our team and so to is Thurman. Guys who played virtually their entire career in Buffalo, won a lot of games, went into the HoF & still live in the area. Developing a winning culture starts with the owners on down. The GM & coach are pivotal to our success. How they treat players is also important. I believe we are on the right track as everyone in the org seems to be in sync. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do actually. He was a bit flamboyant so it turned some people off, but nobody can question his loyalty to the city and the team that drafted him. A California kid repping Buffalo. He seems like a terrific human being. He was the first name I thought of when I heard of Phillips efforts. Will it pan out? Nobody knows. But I think it's especially important for a small market team to have guys spreading positivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played with Phillips at Oklahoma and in Miami. Stills would be a great fit for the Josh Allen skill set. But yeah im assuming Daryl Williams is the guy. Geneo Grissom, former Patriot, is also a guy who could be a depth end who is a former Sooner teammate. But I just love Phillips' passion and zeal. I'd perfectly happy with Stills and Williams.
