apuszczalowski Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Don't get too excited, watch him now become a Pro Bowler with the Pats..... And not to be a total/complete buzz kill, for those amazed at Beane and his sorcery, he was the one who thought high enough of these guys to bring them here in the first place. It's nice to see that he is getting something for them before the would be cut. Edited August 30, 2019 by apuszczalowski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes....praise him because he fortified the position the following year to the point where he could get rid of Bodine (and his salary) for a draft pick for a player they likely were going to cut. but you already know that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he was more of "cream of the crap" than anything else. not disagreeing with you but maybe we focus the praise on the fact he collected draft capital for someone they were going to cut, however minimal we make that it's still something for nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Grundy Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I wonder if Beane and Co watched Ed Oliver abuse Bodine in practices and said sure you can have him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodine was a reach to fill Wood after he retired. It didn't work and they moved on. The backup Center this year is better than Bodine. Getting a 6th for him vs. a cut is a good thing not a bad one. Why don't you just say so? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two ways of looking at things in life: Glass half full and glass half empty. A "glass half empty" person says "pffft. 6th round pick. Who cares?" A "glass half full" person sees that the player was going to get cut anyway, so the Bills just got a free draft pick. You are always, always, ALWAYS a "glass half empty" person when it comes to the Bills. That's fine. That's your prerogative. It just gets grating after a while. It must be a real bummer of a way to go through life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. It's okay to overpay for some players. I would much rather pay a 20m player 30m than a 8m player 5m, especially OC for a young raw QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were going to cut him anyway...just take him." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recall that in 2017, he went out twice after injuring then re-injuring the same foot. Last year the concussions. This off-season--straight to the concussion protocol. KC let him go because they didn't see the value against the risk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is about Bodine (who was backup C at best) being upgraded to the point that 2 others have played better. The Beane getting a 6th for what in essence was the Bills 4th Center. It's a good thing but you go ahead a spin it however you like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
