He's been disappointing for them but he's a heckuva lot better than Bobby Hart. I'd be curious about the cost because it can't be very high. It's weird because going into camp, I felt like the Bills had good depth on the O-line. Now, Bobby Hart might be the 4th best tackle on the roster. So any injury to the top 3 is concerning. Although I would hope they play Bates ahead of Bobby Hart. They could be searching the waiver wire after all. Really it would be a shame for Bobby Hart to take a roster spot, considering some quality players that will be cut at other positions. Now with Lamp to IR, Guard depth doesn't look great either.

Now with Lamp to IR, Guard depth doesn't look great either. How does guard depth change with Lamp on IR? Boettger and Bates were/are our best 2 backup interior guys, regardless of Lamp being healthy. Someone trading for Dillard is looking for a starter, not to make him their 4th tackle. just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not calling Lawrence a bust by any stretch, but I think the NFL is going to be a bigger adjustment than most assumed as well, especially playing on the Jags.

They are a match made in hell. These jags unis are really ugly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notice he retreats backwards out of trouble making his throws even farther. He needs to corect that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahead of Ford and Boettger. Similar to tackle, there are only 3 roster worthy players at guard, plus Bates. Now that Lamp is on IR it looks like the Bills have 8 lineman worthy of making an active 53 for an NFL team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills will probably have mostly the same 9 OL this year as they had last year, save for replacing Nsekhe with Brown and Winters with another strict OG. So tackle depth will not have changed.

He signed a 1 yr, 1m contract to come here...hardly anything. Doyle will be fine as our 9th lineman, or perhaps they consider keeping Douglas and having Bates as the 4th tackle and Jack of all trades backup. Not worried.

So they should be on the lookout for someone like Dilliard who has upside, I’m thinking a waiver wire player more than trade. Anyway, they’ll probably keep Doyle due to draft status. So let’s hope he develops. 24 minutes ago, MasterStrategist said: Forest Lamp would have been a nice story, but he has been injured his whole NFL career (except last season) and didn't exactly play well.

It only becomes a concern if multiple interior lineman or multiple tackles go down. Otherwise they should be fine. But it is interesting from the stand point of who makes the opening day roster.

So let’s hope he develops. Again, last year their OT depth was Dawkins, Williams, Nsekhe, Bates and Ford (Morse, Feliciano, Winters and Boettger were strictly OGs/OCs). They'll replace Nsekhe with Spencer Brown and lose no tackle depth, unless you think that Brown isn't active roster quality, something with which I'd disagree. And I suppose they could replace Winters with Doyle, although I don't know if he can play OG. And he/whoever replaces Winters would be the inactive guy.

What about Jack “Baby Richie Incognito” Anderson? I realize he was only a late round pick, but he is one of their recent draft picks which they’ve been partial to historically. I’ve heard almost nothing about him in camp. Likely a PS guy his first year, but maybe he factors into a deep depth guard spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very good QB who flirts with being elite. Not saying they are the same kind of player but just that type of career trajectory. Which isn't a bad thing necessarily.
