Ethan in Cleveland Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 3 hours ago, SCBills said: Is another move coming?.. We now have Oliver, Jefferson, Butler, Star and Harry at DT.    Thats a lot of $$$ tied up at DT, along with a high pick and former 3rd rounder, entering, essentially, his 2nd year. Star is gone next year. They have plenty of cap room 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 What is going on?  Did we sign Butler or Jefferson?  Thread title say Butler, but thread shows us signing both.  If it’s both, why are they merged into one thread???? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the addition of a #1 WR, I say another playmaker or OT is top of the order. and no OT worthy of that pick is gonna be there.jmo  They could also go CB...never can have too many good CBs these days and it will be protection if Norman plays poorly 1 minute ago, Alphadawg7 said: What is going on?  Did we sign Butler or Jefferson?  Thread title say Butler, but thread shows us signing both.  If it’s both, why are they merged into one thread????  They signed both 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Mea Culpa, folks.  I screwed up combining duplicate threads (Butler & Jefferson), making this a difficult read. I’ve asked @YoloinOhio to change the topic heading and will attempt to get @Nervous Guy to split them back in the a.m. Both are likely sleeping currently.  (Ya’d think they know this is when Beane does his best work.

WideRightRevenge Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Interesting reading about his draft profile  https://walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2016vbutler.php  Player Comparison: Nick Fairley. Fairley has been a good player when motivated. He can be a stout run defender and contributes as a pass-rusher. Like Fairley, Butler has a ton of natural talent. They are similar size and athletic. Fairley was a mid-first-round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, and Butler could go as high as the middle of Round 1 to early in Round 2.NFL Matches: Buffalo, Washington, Houston, Cincinnati, Green Bay, Arizona, Seattle, Denver, Baltimore, New Orleans, Detroit and New Orleans There are a lot of options for Butler in the first or second round. Kyle Williams is aging for Buffalo, and the Bills could easily address their front seven this offseason. Butler could form a special tandem with Marcel Dareus (2020 edit -- Ed Oliver).

BigBuff423 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 10 hours ago, Virgil said: Honestly, how many defensive lineman do we need? Â I mean, damn..... Â Well, the Bills let Lawson and Phillips go, so there's Addison and Butler, then Liuget could equal Jefferson. So, really they're presumably upgrading guys they lost, not just adding to the numbers. I realize your statement was probably sarcasm, but I'm just throwing this out there as a means to bringing some clarity to the "why" when this isn't the only place I've seen the question or concern about Buffalo targeting Defensive players over Offensive players.
