jkeerie Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I actually wouldn't mind it if the Bills really focused on both sides of the lines in this year's draft. Those areas were our biggest weaknesses in the Championship game. Allen was pressured. We couldn't run. We got no pressure on Mahomes. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 At 6'6'' and 320 pounds, I would like to see him add 20 pounds this offseason. I would recommend that he stay in town and spend February and March sampling the local food scene. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Devey saw action in one game in 2020 after spending most of the season on the team's practice squad and active roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanThru-N-Thru Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Just a body as insurance ... I'm more interested to see what Trey Adams can do in the offseason after getting some guidance from the BIlls and their NFL offseason regimen. Before his back/knee issues in college he was a beast. Hopefully he can regain that back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drafted Oliver, Epinesa, Johnson, & Phillips. Also signed Butler as a FA who is only 26. So far Oliver has looked the best which considering where drafted should look the best. Phillips was starting to come on before injured last season, this year by season end was looking better again, likely next year will be make or break year for him. Johnson for a 7th rounder has done very well, but is still a 7th rounder. Epinesa improved, will see what next season brings for him WRT improvement. Offensive line have drafted Dawkins,Teller, and Ford so would agree not nearly as much effort there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand J Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Went undrafted in 2013. Has spent time with the Ravens, Patriots, 49ers, Chiefs, Raiders, and now Bills. At 33 years old he’s the definition of a journeyman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Joe's tweet has been bugging me since I first saw this thread. How do we actually classify someone as a veteran? Is it by age, longevity or by actual on-field experience? Because Devey is definitely old and he's been around the block a few times but he's only started 21 games ever. I wouldn't classify anyone with just over a season of actual on-field experience as a veteran, per se. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, after ones rookie season is over, one then becomes a veteran of various degrees ie; years in the league, he may have only started in twenty one games but it is likely he has played in many others, hence a veteran, just sayin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always found it a bit weird when I've seen players designated as a veteran after a handful of seasons. Maybe coming from a sporting background where there's the likelihood for more longevity and less turnover, I'm more prone to think of someone as a veteran beyond the age of 30 with a ton of playing experience behind them. Then you've got the relatively small sample size of games (16 in the NFL to 38 in the Premier League etc.) It's just not a tag that I'd put on a guy like Devey myself. Mario Addison, Jerry Hughes, Lee Smith, Josh Norman are the guys that I'd consider veteran. There's a little more gravitas to their careers than simply just existing for a period of time. Just my own weird thought process, was curious about how anyone else might look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear ya, here in the states we like to over do just about everything, I tend to view this much like you seem to, I blame it on my up bringing, 2nd generation in the states of English and Irish grandparents.

AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Draft the best big men you can find .... I believe Chuck Dickerson used to spout that mantra, and it was probably the only thing he ever said that was correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
