CSBill Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Interesting, Harold was on the chopping block anyhow. But then again, the new guy probably was as well. A no risk trade for both teams. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 http://draftanalyst.com/ryan-bates yep every scouting report I see needs to add bulk and power. Can play all along the line. Sounds like the type of guy I would want to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would you rather end up Cutting Harold final cuts to not go to PS. Or get a Rookie UDFA in the System now where if he gets cut he goes to PS?

I’m not speaking about Harold. I’m just would like to know their thinking behind bringing Bates in and who does this spell trouble for. Though Bates can play tackle, he has versatility and my bet is this gives some direct competition to Teller and Bodine. If Bates can play well (UFA but who knows?) Bates can bring to the team what both of those guys can’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as a rookie if he shows well enough (not counting on him to make the team) but having a versatile OL on the PS never an issue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
