DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 maybe nothing. they have done quite a bit this off season/draft. maybe they're content with what they have going in to camp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustWinPlease Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 I knew this wasn't going to happen...he used the Bills as leverage as usual, he was never going to come here. That's a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame. Not worth the risk IMO with his shoulder still banged up and it's been reported he will most likely miss at least the 1st month of the season. So I think they maybe found out more about the injury and decided to take a pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had some wrist surgeries but if he is recovered could be a steal on a low risk low dollar contract This is where I am at too. At the very least he gives you some serious speed off the edge in wide nine and nickel situations. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 2 hours ago, billsredneck1 said: i think we stand pat and kick shaq inside with oliver on passing downs. play murphy / lorax / love and the rookie d. johnson to rush the passer. we will be fine. we need to blitz more. seems like every single time we did last year, we got a sack. I agree, Leslie & Sean must create more hurries and knockdowns. Just have to go Lorax and Jerry on the outside. I don't have alot of faith in Lawson or Murphy's production. Oliver, Star and a Phillips rotation will create a nice push of the pocket. Next year we might be drafting 2 DE's.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket94 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 A lot of these guys have injury histories and other recurring problems. Does that include Dion Jordan as Well? Probably not worth a look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 It’s time for Murphy to stop getting hurt and step up. Same for Lawson. Make plays and make the missing Ziggy be an afterthought 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very uninspiring after the first 4 names - and they don’t seem like fits for the Bills. thanks for changing my community score and not leaving me stuck on that number! uggh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention he only shows up 3-4 games a year That's a fair point, but those might be 3 or 4 important games.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsredneck1 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 i'm glad we didn't get him. it's obvious he wanted to, not just be a rotational player and he got an incentive laden contract. good for him and glad we didn't pi$$ money away there. i am confident in who we have. we may as well let lorax enjoy a career year. i think we'll get double digits from hughes and murphy....probably7-8 from lorax. i'm hoping j. phillipps along with shaq , harry and oliver can pitch in for a dozen. maybe we get a couple from eddie, milano and tremaine. i also hope we blitz more. i like mike love and this rookie they drafted late (d. johnson) could turn into a pass rushing machine. i'm expecting 40+ sacks. i love what they did in the draft...except i would have probably done different in the 3rd rd. (jaylon ferguson), but i trust these guys. i haven't been this excited in years. i'm just now on the edge of my seat waiting to see what the starting 5 on the oline looks like.

Rocket94 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 We need a pro bowl calibre DE to compete effectively in the AFC East. Someone healthy and productive...not has beens and the chronically injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think Ben Watson becomes the primary target for Beane at this stage. I absolutely hope not. Guy is 38 about to be 39. A few QB's last that long but I would definitely steer clear of a TE at that age. See what the younger TE's have and if for some reason they don't pan out, you can most likely find a way to get another TE that's not ancient (in football years that is). Waste of a roster spot IMO. Think they will probably stick with what they have for now unless they make some kind of trade, or after some players start to get cut for the DE position.

Dkollidas Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 (edited) I’d say there’s three “types” of options. 1. The big Splash- Go after Clowney. I don’t think they’d use a 1st, but they’d do something around a 2nd + Lawson or something like that. *Chance of Happening* = 10% 2. Current UFA- go after one of the flawed guys available. Michael Johnson, Shane Ray, etc. *Chance of Happening* = 40% 3. Wait for Cuts- between June and August there will be some decent players cut. Whether for age, cap space, or not a fit with a new coaching staff, good players get cut almost every off-season. *Chance of Happening* = 50% Edited May 9, 2019 by Dkollidas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
