Smith was originally drafted by the Pats in the 5th round in 2011 but was cut before the season started. I searched around a bit but couldn't find any super clear connection between Thuney and a Bills player, but I didn't search that much...half a Google... a Goog... not the full Google.

I think it would be better for our line to sign Conklin and Ford to LG. Or Ford to RG and Mongo to LG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) You draft and develop guards. You don’t break the bank for them by signing some other teams free agent. There is a reason guards seldom go in the first round of a draft. Edited January 31, 2020 by Binghamton Beast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His Twitter profile says he is an "NFL Insider" but doesn't say how he got those connections. Is he a media guy? Former scout? His profile says he is a "frequent contributor on national radio." Ok... what national radio? I listen to plenty of spots radio and never heard him before. Most NFL insiders appear to be unlicensed proctologists and are as full of the product of that specialty.

Sometimes there are exceptions. We will differ. I'm sure we will have people agreeing with the both of us. Tackles, yes. Center, yes. Not guards.

Magox Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I wouldn't be upset but it doesn't seem logical to me for the Bills to pay THAT much money for a guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like the Jets want him bad and they are desperate on the OL. Maybe Beane is just going to fake drive up his price and doesn’t really intend to sign him.

John from Riverside Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Maybe they want Robbie Anderson so they are trying to drive the price up on the jets on this player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuvian Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 this doesn't sound like a Beane move to me. GMs and scouts never stray far from the teams whose programs they are the most familiar with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 A) You have to be extremely careful with Pats OL. Nate Solder was the best LT in football! B) Thuney is more of a finesse guard, and what this line needs is a mauler. Hope this doesn't come to fruition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly he got demoted to RT for the raiders by the start of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
