And can offer the starting Job. Not saying we shouldn't try, I just get the feeling it will be a hard sell Alrighty then... I’ll raise you a “Whose closer to being a winner?” ?

I do think we have a legitimate pitch. And no one knows what the real motivations of the player are. And I can say we are set up better now that we have been in the past of a player picking us over others (without drastically overpaying them). Just pointing out that I think our roster hurts us a bit here having two very good young LBers already here and we are in our sub packages over 50% of the time.

He can probably get a chance to be a starting Will somewhere which will put him on the field much more. We don't know how they see him do we? Maybe the Bills ran nickel so much because they didn't have a third LB who could athletically compete, consistently, on passing downs. If Kirksey is seen as being able to, perhaps the Bills run more 3 LB sets. We shall see. Edited March 11, 2020 by purple haze 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would another athletic LB give Frazier & Co a lot more scheme flexibility in switching up Kirksey & Edmunds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more often Edmunds gets to rush the passer, the better this defense will be; his ability to pressure the QB as a plus-1 is rare. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. He's good in coverage too, especially for his size. That's why I say he should always be on the field. That dude could go down as one of the best ever if he hits his cieling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I have yet to see any reputable source confirm a Bills visit. Some Twitter accounts that I like, such as Cover 1, have stated that it's going to happen, but I haven't seen any of what I would consider "official" sources. Not sure what to think.

DFT Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Would be a tremendous get for Buffalo. He’s going to remind the NFL who he is (barring there’s a season). It wouldn’t surprise me in the least to see Buffalo exceed a front loaded (2 year) deal, instead of the speculated “base offer/ prove it” contract. Hope they get him.

BeastMode54 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Joe Thomas called him one the all time Browns greats, not just for what he did onthe field but off. He seems like "process" guy to me. I'd imagine other teams want a prove it deal. And while Beane has favored those deals, maybe we give him a 2-3 year deal instead to lock him up. He's just what the defense needs to replace Zo IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
