He’s an unknown, but his college offenses are a HEAVY misdirection run game. Going to need a lot of eye discipline if his history is any indication. Is he a northern relative of Ron Mexico?

I would sell the house for something like that next draft...we have missed far too often on our interior dline.... You don't need to sell the house for a 2 down player He's not going in the first round because he has little pass rush upside in the NFL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Jabber Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 While I love McBeane and everything they’ve done to date, I think putting all their eggs in one basket on having one DT [Lotulelei] be the main cog to take on double teams, free up Oliver and help free up their LB’s was a huge misjudgment!

FilthyBeast Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 30 minutes ago, SCBills said: What do you people want us to do? Carry multiple 1 techs? We aren’t designed to be dominant against the run. We should expect, with all the investments made, to be solid against the run though. We play two linebackers primarily. That isn’t a team that seems overly worried about being a run stuffing unit. The Steelers OL is pretty inexperienced and littered with mid-round picks. If our DL minus Star struggles with them, that’s a problem. It's not about being dominant against the run it's the over reliance and confidence in a 30 something 'Carolina guy' who hasn't played football in almost 2 years and has never been that good to begin with. This is also why I worry about going up against teams like the Browns and Titans in the playoffs because it's a bad matchup since they can kill us with the run and set up the play action passing game.

YoloinOhio Posted September 10, 2021 Author Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) I understand the disappointment, but the Bills won 15 games last year without Star, the DL is well versed on playing without him there, and are facing one of the worst and least experienced OLs in the league. If this is what leads to a loss, this team has much bigger issues. based on McDermott’s comments on his injury earlier this week, I’d expect him back for week 2; he doesn’t have an injury history since he’s been here .

LeGOATski Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 46 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Coming into the season, I too felt that Zimmer was strictly a 1T guy Per the depth chart on Buffalobills.com, 1TDT is where they have him listed, as his primary position. It's not because there's someone else listed as #3 behind Oliver and Butler So I think this reflects how the Bills are looking at him right now. I think they look at Harry, Zimmer, Oliver, Butler as all versatile enough to man the spot, but none are true 1Ts from what I can tell. They're all 1T/3T (Oliver can play 4T/5T too). Star is the only true 1T who was brought in exclusively for that role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck aftercwe win the SB I could care less if they trade all their picks to land a draft player they feel will fill a need. I trust this front office with their player evaluations. They don't hit on every pick but they have brought in a good number of players that fit right in our system -- both via draft as well as bringing in vets that didn't fit their other team.

That still doesn't mean reaching for players is a good idea This kid's going to be available after the first round So if we trade up and take him in the first round its technically not a good idea.. because you're going to be able to get him after I was talking to somebody who said they would give up the house for somebody like this... You won't have to give up the house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pass rushing in college is alot different than pass rushing in the NFL He is definitely quick but his actual rush moves leaves alot to be desired and he's a 2 down player rn in the NFL He can refine alot of technique which is huge for a big man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
