Hull, Kent67 Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 Trey Teague? 316912[/snapback] Trey Teague sucks as a center! Does anyone else feel comfortable with him there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark VI Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Teague was the fallback plan all along. Shelton was not an upgrade and no decent LT was there from Round 2 on. The 2006 supposedly is deep in tackles, especially LT. The Bills live with Teague for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeRay Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 because the teflon guy thinks he can get a college FA LT real cheap. Stay tuned. Teflon Tom is on the phone wooing the LTs that don't get drafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeRay Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Teague was the fallback plan all along. If that's Teflon Tom's mentality, it is then no wonder why the bills have been spinning their wheels for the past 4 seasons. Teague was never a good LT, thus there was no one out there knocking down his door to sign a contract.... and he's, at best, a marginal center. So, Teflon Tom doesn't value a LT anymore than he values a practice squad player. If he needs one, he'll just make a run down to Walmart and pick one up.

eball Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 the C they drafted in the 4th round (preston) is tall -- 6'5" or 6'6" -- and gil brandt/pat kirwan opined on sirius that he is a possible T prospect as well as C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLease help me! 316908[/snapback] Hello? Free agency. Besides there is Trey Teague who may be able to fill in for a year. Remember, JP makes this line better already. DB is no longer under center.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Or could it be that there wasn't anyone there by the 55th pick better than either TT or Peters would play this year in that position? You're assuming that someone picked up 2nd or 3rd round is going to come in and play better. So who would that player have been that would be an instant upgrade over anyone on the current roster at LT??? If that's Teflon Tom's mentality, it is then no wonder why the bills have been spinning their wheels for the past 4 seasons. Teague was never a good LT, thus there was no one out there knocking down his door to sign a contract.... and he's, at best, a marginal center.
