Freddie's Dead Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Nuke was all over the NFL pre-game shows this morning. The Saints-Rams rematch dominated the coverage, and they replayed the non-PI call a few hundred times. I was always a huge Nuke fan and was sorry to see him get released. I guess he wasn't a process guy, but his talent is undeniable. I'm glad he landed on his feet, but I still wish he was here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil The Thrill Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 He resigned with the Bills and was actually released once McDermott took over. I never understood why. He was a pretty good nickel CB, which was ironic since his name was Nickel LOL I’d get it if he didn’t fit in the defense like a Ron Darby, but I think he’d still be a good nickel CB in out defense 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US Egg Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 (edited) Nickell Robey-Coleman, the one that got away..... Said that about my 1st wife until I met my 2nd wife.

I really like Roby, but he was too small for this role. This is why Siran Neal and Rafeal Bush were the next men up for Taron Johnson when he goes down instead of like a Kevin Johnson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuke's a playmaker, he's always making plays. I gotta think there's a spot for a guy like that anywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others like a blitz specialist or physical guy who can set the edge . Some Defensive coordinators love a guy like robey others might think he's a liability in their scheme McDermott is definitely in the physical slot category He definitely a baller tho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallskiWallski83 Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 You mean the guy who got roasted in the SB by Julian Edelman (who tooled on him when he played for the bills) is the one who got away? Plz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MassHog Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I love that guy. It was so dumb to let him walk. He plays with so much heart, and is finally getting the recognition he deserved. I will never forget Gronk lining up in the slot and Rex Ryan continually putting Robey on him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Jabari Greer is the guy that got away. Home grown UDFA talent they let walk out the door. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills are doing just fine without "nuke" (a nickname you gave him I presume?). What is up with this board today??? Bills are 2 and 0. Enjoy it!!!

I'd like to take credit, but someone else glossed him Nuke. I posted this before the game after seeing Nuke on all the pre-game shows. I was bummed when he was released, so I waxed nostalgic. Sue me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Nickel was one of the most fun rookie stories in my time watching this team. He kind of tailed off after that year but found new life in LA. Happy for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
