Beans certainly has improved the O-line talent.

 

But you bring up the point that he likely could have covered the C position without taking the risk on Morse.  So I agree with you there.

 

KC made their last year's starting Center expendable too.  Who's their C?

Who cares?  I am not a fan of KC.

 

I know that answer sounds simple....but that is my view of it...I worry about OUR teams players.   We needed a OL in front of our investment of Josh Allen....Beane did that.

Nope.  Don’t like it.  He’ll start pancaking Oliver before you know it.  Never support the evil empire!

 

Unless....he’s a special secret undercover double agent who’s going to take a fall when playing us and give us free shots at Marsha.....

So Beane got assets for Bodine AND manages to make a division rival worse in the process?!?!  I'm starting to buy into this Beane is a sorcerer business!

Lol, was just thinking we get a draft pick and get to face him twice a year.  Double win!

Im not sure what side of the commentary I’m on here. Is it a sadder commentary about last year’s OL that two of the starters were gonna be cut or is it a happier commentary on the quality of players Beane brought in to replace them? 

 

I choose to believe the latter.

It's a mix of both imo. Spain, Feliciano and Long all have flexibility on the interior but none of them are world beaters. Bodine's bad and Teller doesn't have position flexibility so they were expendable. We improved our line in the offseason and were then able to get a few extra picks as well so I'm a very happy camper right now.

They would need him to be great in all 16 games, because this isn't close to the Offense he was snapping to in KC.  

 

The Chiefs concluded he wasn't a significant enough piece of their insanely successful Offense to keep.

 

Actually they concluded that they couldn't afford to keep him given their other future contracts.

 

And will you he happier to see Morse play well and earn his contract, or not and you be proven right?

Giving Belichick information about our offense isn't worth a 6th rounder. Helping a division rival, especially the Patriots isn't worth a 6th rounder. Making them overpay after we cut him and use more cap space is more valuable than a 6th rounder. 

Some people are way too into conspiracy theories

It's not a conspiracy, it's basic strategy. Would you rather give your neighbor that you hate, something you were going to throw out for a lottery ticket or make him dig through your trash?

Espn ...Rotoworld they all can say anything they want a bunch a blowhards that never saw this guy struggle like he was  holding a red cape(o'lay ~ to the bull) not wearing one for all of them 74 games ....lol ...He wont even be starting in  N.E.....Karras will be the  1st string center ....so let them throw crap against wall and see if it sticks in  N.E ...it still smells just the same.Take the 6th everyday ending in "Y"  & twice on Sunday ....about how many sacks n hurries he will allow  per game  right up the gut if he forced into lineup there.

I can't believe we did this. If we cut Bodine and he signs with the Pats then so be it. 6th round pick is not worth the kind of intel he'll give our biggest rival. The last guy I want on that team is the center who's been helping groom our young QB. Very ballsy move by Beane.

 

I agree with this post. Bodine knows the playbook, inside and out I'll assume. Some one tell me why this is worth a 6th round pick to the Patriots when they get the Bills whole playbook, tendencies, etc..

Andrews to Bodine is a huge drop off. That’s the biggest win here for the Bills. The pick is just icing.

Not going to help Bodine when he’s facing the Bills defense. I’m pretty sure the Pats don’t need to know the playbook in order to stop the Bills offense. They’ve successfully done it without the playbook for 20 years.

Ed Oliver, Harrison Phillips, Star and Jordan Phillips just got woodies....

There has to be some truth to this (anatomical references aside).  I mean, I've never played the game, but that has to get into your head, right?  If you're Bodine, and you've been getting creamed for 5 weeks in training camp against these guys (particularly Oliver), that's going to stick in your head come game day.

 

"I got this.  I got this.  He's not that good.  I got this..."

 

WHAM.

 

"Yep, I remember that.  I remember that.  Jesus.  I couldn't stop that two months ago..."

 

And that's in the first quarter.

I doubt Bodine provides one drop of intel that Belichick isn’t already well aware of.

But it will help the Pat's defense when their facing the Bill's offense

We give Belicheat too much credit sometimes.

It won’t matter. They don’t need any help. Please rewatch the Pats games vs the  Bills offense last year. It was a complete mismatch.the Bills needed better talent, they appear to have upgraded, but that is what is going to beat them. That Pats D already has their #. Daboll runs the same offense they do.

Yep. Talent trumps scheme. Every. Single. Time.

Bodine is southern for "Caught in an endless backpedal"

As terrible as he is, there just aren't many good centers out there. I think it's become a much more important position over the years with the development of elite interior pass rushers and crazy exotic defenses that college centers just don't see very often.

Why are people shocked that bodine has some value?

 

He started like 45 straight for the Bengals and line play around the league is piss poor

 

He is still easily one of the best 40-45 centers in the world

Shhh. Common sense doesn't work here. 

Beane did a great job of signing versatile linemen which made Bodine expendable even knowing Morse injury history

Both of those guys shipped out that were presumed cuts were also Beane picks/signings

No kidding. Glad he didn’t let that stand in the way of making necessary upgrades. And it isn’t like his “misses” are out the league, either. One garnered interest from multiple teams and the other is now playing for the SB champs. Beane isn’t afraid to move on from his previous signings. That’s a good thing.

I agree. The overall talent of the OL on paper looks so much better than last year. 

Id just hold off on the genius label until we actually see better results on the field.

I don’t recall labeling Beane a genius. There’s a difference between that and not labeling him a dumb ass like his detractors enjoy doing around here.

Don’t they have the best oline coach in the nfl?  Like by all accounts, he is the best position coach in the nfl.   I freely admit I don’t watch o linemen so I have no idea how good he is.  

 

If you o line guys think he was going to get cut, better to get something for him.

Yeah, I imagine that if any other team had made this trade like Arizona we'd be laughing at them. I guess it depends if Scar is a better o-line coach than everyone else.

Like I said in the Teller thread, it's very encouraging that we have players who aren't good enough to make the 53-man roster, but are good enough to have trade value.

 

Not to mention to have trade value to the NFL's most dominant team for two decades running...
