freddyjj Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 On the predict the trade topic I guessed he would be traded for a 5th in 2020 draft. Had him going to Houston though. Boettger and Bates can play all positions on OLine and are the development candidates. Teller had huge upper body but was light in backside and had trouble generating power in run blocking at camp and in games I saw. Expect a WR, CB, LB, Sa nd even an RB to be dealt between now and MON too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 This should disprove the notion that McDermott/Beane won't deal away their own picks in the right circumstances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLTbills Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 3 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said: Browns were desperate at RG, I think they knew that. Also this is the same GM who provided the 1st pick in the 3rd rd for Tyrod Taylor the same year he was drafting a QB #1 overall. And then let him start two games, then ride the pine, then release him. Seems like good use of a 3rd round pick. And we used said 3rd round pick to trade up and get Edmunds. More Beane sorcery.

HansLanda Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Is this further evidence Ford is going to play G, and thus we had "too much" depth there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HavUHerdThaHoard Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 good trade by Beaner ...Teller was fringe even if was progressing (arguable)...Bates and Boetger both passed him up evidently .This trade is a solid get especially with a team like Pats scouring the earth for OL help ...if Teller hit waivers he would have been a Pat in a heartbeat . Nice job OBD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollars 2 donuts Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) Yes, they did get 2 picks next year. however, I just think this guy would have locked in to starting in 2020. instead he’ll be doing it in brown and white. we’ll have to sadly live with Beane typical 5th and 6th round quality. like Milano. ?

Ethan in Cleveland Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Probably means Nsekhe is starting at RT and Ford at RG. Teller can't play center. And he really is not that good. I wasn't that high on Feliciano or Long but they both can play center or guard. Good value in return by Beane. Nice move. Keeping my promise to not look to the past and only evaluate moves made by Beane in the moment 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobbRiddick Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Hmm, I liked Teller but when you have improved competition you're going to have to let guys go. What I do like is getting something back for guys you drafted yourself 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 This is a great move as far as I’m concerned. They can take one of those picks and try to find a punter perhaps?

The fact that Bates looks like a solid young center prospect has to be playing into this. They are prob going to move Ford to Guard at least for this year.

ndirish1978 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Mills, Ducasse, Teller, Bodine - all starters for us on the line last year. Teller just got traded because he was 5/6 on the depth chart at G, Bodine will likely be cut and the other 2 are free agents. This line has improved. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffAlone Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 liked Teller and thought he was improving. But to get a 5th and 6th, and a half season starter, for the low cost of a 5th and 7th is good value. Good luck Wyatt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't trust Long at C but he and Feliciano can play if Morse gets another concussion. Only chance Bodine makes the roster is if Ford is starting at RT and that forces Feliciano or Long into starting RG spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bates plays all 5 spots which makes him valuable. That trade opens up a spot elsewhere on the roster as I suspect 1 less O lineman will be kept. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 People who cover the Bills seemed to give Wyatt Taller a 50-50 shot of making the team, especially after the addition of Ryan Bates. The fact that we traded him for future picks makes it pretty clear. He wasn't going to make it. What's astounding is, Teller played pretty well this offseason and is still very young. It says a lot about the talent Brandon Beane has added at O-Line. Prior to Free Agency, he was possibly our second best linemen. Five months later, he's on the outside looking in. It also says something about Beane's ability to get something out of nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriuosly can't see OBD keeping Bodine in any scenario. Small, gets pushed around like on roller skates and no long term upside equals his getting cut.
