Maybe he's not good enough to start at Pittsburgh, but they must feel there are ways to utilize his talents other than just special teams, or they would not have signed him.

And you know this how? Clearly this guy’s known primarily for his ST play and McD loves him some ST. Edited March 17, 2020 by Bangarang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) The ST unit while not bad last season was far from an elite unit. And I am not talking about the shaky punting and Haush not having much leg beyond 50. The coverage units were just OK. I think adding another ST ace to the coverage and kick units is a proactive decision that helps the ST take another step up. If only they could find a punter.

Wizard Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Too much for a process ST guy. To Do List 1. Griffen 2. Bulaga 3. Leonard Floyd 4. Jordan Howard 5. Extend White Now! 6. Cut waste (Murphy, Nsheke, Smith, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, he could potentially be our starting RT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I looked up his ST snap count. He had 340 snaps on ST last year. In 2019 Stafford led the Bills with 297. His ST snap % was 79% which means he play all ST plays except XP and FG attempts. Looks like he will be the ST Captain in 2020. What will happen to DiMarco?

LOL I think we let go of DiMarco and bring in someone else who provides a bit more athleticism at the position and can be a weapon in the passing game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be shocked if there isn't a FB brought in for competition this year. DiMarco is 31 years old. Time for an upgrade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either find the next Jusczyk ( he was McDs original FA target, after all) or eliminate the position like most teams have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Klein is good enough to be that guy and he still contributes to ST. He should fill in for LorAx relatively well, but without the occasional work on the DL. And you are right that we have a couple young guys that could rise up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
