Nextmanup Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 So when he said Clowney is going to Buffalo or Miami he really meant "no discussions with Buffalo of any kind" and "he's actually going to Seattle." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a big year for GM/HC combo.... at least it should be. Need to have a big year. Clowney transforms the defense.... but they are invested in Murphy, who stinks. I don't think you understand that Clowney chose where he went. Houston screwed up. If they tried to trade him to a team he didn't want to play for he wouldn't have ever signed his tag. That's why Seattle got him for peanuts. He wanted to go there or Philly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they are right.?? The bills do not have a "mediocre" roster on defense.....the Roster is actually pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I assume it's because you don't want to because it doesn't fit your narrative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they call his bluff and they get a 3rd round pick when he leaves as a FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannc Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 50 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: It's a pretty below average team offensively with a solid defense that struggles to pressure the QB. Looks like a 7-8 win team to me due to the lack of offensive playmakers. Here's to hoping I'm wrong. ? You must be kidding. Their front seven is unreal. And they have Russell Wilson, Tyler Lockett and a great RB in Carson. They are my NFC Super Bowl pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a little more hopeful than you, but this is a team with *zero* upper-tier offensive players except maybe Morse, and he’s shaky given the concussion issue. I like Brown, but he’s no AJ Green. 6 hours ago, mannc said: You must be kidding. Their front seven is unreal. And they have Russell Wilson, Tyler Lockett and a great RB in Carson.

In fact, their D is largely suspect IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always enjoy watching you two go back and forth. It’s like Superman vs Lex Luthor or Batman vs the Joker. For the record I tend to see things your way. Particularly in this instance. I would of loved Clowney for a similar deal the Seahawks got. Fact is he wasn’t coming here. Beane values a third round pick to much for a guy who tells him, you got me for a season. Not to mention nothing about Clowney’s behavior this off-season points to a team first type of guy. i like the talent on D. I think they are building something the next several seasons. Not to mention maybe Johnson can develop into something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarran Reed was ok as a rookie; though I thought I saw that he fell out of favor recently. Wagner is great. You need more than he and Clowney though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagner is great. You need more than he and Clowney though Reed was way better than OK. As a third year player last year, he had 10.5 sacks as an interior lineman and generally wreaked havoc. He did not “fall out of favor”; he’s on a six game “personal conduct” suspension to start this year. Edited September 1, 2019 by mannc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
