Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Depends how the Bills feel about the depth at OG. I think they're comfortable with the depth. If Feliciano goes on IR then it's possible but I don't see that happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Strange decision from the Jets for my money. Winters isn't a star but he is a solid league average starter type. I know they brought in Lewis from Baltimore last year and Van Roten from Carolina this year but even if he was beat out for both starting guard spots Winters would have been solid depth for a team that has fielded some bad lines in recent years. Teams that cut oline depth when they don't need to always confuse me. It is one of the things I like most about Beane. The last two offseasons he has overstocked at OL after the 2018 disaster. We are not in that one injury from disaster position. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I think I'd rather the Bills wait and see if there bight be a better use for their available cap space than Winters. The still have starter level talent and depth even if Feliciano misses the entire season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locomark Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 At first I’m thinking you meant Frank Winters because he’s the only decent Winters to play in their league. Let’s just say I would take 54 year old Frank Winters over 27 year old Brian Winters. Pass... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Wonder if teams will be waiting until the Opt our period is over to sign FAs like this. I can see some guys signing and then immediately opting out. (Im not sure how the salary works During 2020 if you opt out though). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I'm warming up to the idea of playing Cody Ford at RG. He was projected as a stud at that position in the Draft. To me, i'd rather have solid to above-average play at 4/5 positions on the OL, with RT being a question mark and Darryl Williams and Ty Nsehke competing for that spot. Of course, RT is more important than RG and they have invested a rookie year in breaking in Ford there. If he makes a jump, i'll certainly trust the staff keeping him there. No need to go out signing guys, especially if they're only on one year deals... We have depth, just roll over everything into next year so we can do what we need to do even if the cap is $174 mil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a while since I heard the song. It's just wild. Winter is a musician. This song defies category. It's jazz. It's jam music. It's metallic. He even does some early beat box/mix master stuff.

GreggTX Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 He's considerably better than Feliciano and slightly better than Spain. He's no probowler, but still an upgrade unless something happened to him. Too bad he isn't a RT so we could kick Ford inside where he belongs. I doubt Ford will ever be very good at RT.
