poblano Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 With Long we are thin at backup center, last year the backup was Feliciano. Or just another PS move? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s Mr versatile on the O line. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2020 Our Year For Sure Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I thought Boehm would be the backup center because Bobby Johnson but I guess it's Bates for now ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 No more "TT"'s for the Bills.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 If the Bills can fit him on the roster, he's cheap depth for the interior line. He has played games at center and both guard spots. He lacks good agility, and will never be a threat to earn a starting spot. I don't know if he would want to be on a practice squad after a few years as a salaried player, but if he accepts that role it would be well worth signing him.

MrEpsYtown Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Bates and Boettger can play center, but aren’t natural centers like Boehm is. I’m guessing Bates is the #2 guy on the depth chart. There is depth there, but if you think Harrison is better than those guys, it makes sense to kick the tires. I don’t think he would replace Boettger or Bates. I think this team really likes those guys, and I think they would lose them to other teams if released. Just my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note that Sal C. listed Boehm as one of the four "Protected" Practice Squad guys, for this week. With that in mind, this move is telling: they are definitely concerned about backup center. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they bring a guy like Harrison in because if Morse goes down and Feliciano is not back they would bring a vet in. So worth working vets out. But while Morse is healthy they would rather hold onto their own developmental guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested on why you are high on Boettger. He was really bad in week 17 last year and hasn't shown much in any of the games he has played. Him making the team year after year, is always baffling to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
