The Bills are drafting literal tanks at tackle the last 2 years.  This guy is all beef, good luck to him challenging Doyle for his swing backup role.

At this rate Terry is going to complain about the cost of fuel to fly these guys around.

Wondering if they really still believe in Cody Ford… even as a depth piece…

 

Listened to Beane's press conference last night. They do still believe in Cody Ford.

Too much, they won't let go of that guy and it feels like they won't draft another high profile OL with him still in the mix.

 

Cody Ford is a bust with cement in his shoes. We haven't drafted an OT since Ford or an OG worth a darn since Teller either.

Eventually it will cost this team. JA has 1-2 more years with this ability to mask bad OL play. Investments need to be made.

 

That said I think they are at their limit with Edmunds based on that same presser.

Beane mentioned having LBs with instincts and quick reaction many many times.

That is not Edmunds. Bernard is the anti Edmunds.

Beane compared Bernard to Thomas Davis and Matt Milano and said Bernard could play in the Middle if needed!

 

I think Ford and Edmunds are on notice now, but their faith in Ford is foolish.

They like to keep a lot of O linemen on the roster.


Their gonna keep 4 OTs just like every year. Dawkins, Brown, Q-Berry are locks. That’s means Doyle, Hart, and Tenuta are battling for that spot. I gotta think Doyle is way ahead in that battle

Spencer Brown isn't worth a darn? He had a solid rookie season for a 3rd round pick.

 

Yeah I worded that poorly.

 

PS Spencer Brown is not a long term starting RT. He exceeded expectations last year, but is not a starting RT for a Super Bowl winner IMO.

They must have faith in the Quessenberry, Ford, Mancz, Boettger IOL depth chart.

 

Of that list, I only have faith in Quessenberry as a capable backup.

 

Won’t surprise me if they sign another FA or two, as well as whatever UDFA might have to offer.

I gotta disagree there.  If anything he's an excellent long term prospect with an athletic profile that is absurd for the position.  The sky is the limit with him developmentally, there's basically no ceiling. I'm not saying he'll reach that potential but it's definitely there.

This is a weird take, in my opinion.

 

Its not as if Brown came into the league at his ceiling. He was very raw, coming from a lower level of competition and coming off a year of no football. To think he won’t improve with a year of NFL experience and an offseason in our strength and conditioning program is odd to me.

I usually prefer the NFL Network draft coverage to ESPN, but I have found it severely lacking in quality analysis this year.

I recognize that they're not going to break down every single day three pick, and that it's still a television show in the end, and they need to keep eyes on the screen, but...

They have spent the vast majority of day three re-hashing storylines, re-capping days 1 and 2, interviewing people, and showing musical performances. I've lost count of how many players they haven't said one word about.

They didn't say a thing about or show a single clip of Khalil Shakir or Benford kid in the sixth round.

Just an all around disappointing draft broadcast by NFLN this year.

It always amazes me the last day all networks go to interviews, meaningless discussion and ignore most of the picks.  Literally the reason people are watching is to see what the picks are.  And to say well, they don't have film on all of them - then nfln goes to stump the truck to shove in your face they can find film on any ridiculous college player you can think of - but we won't show you when they get drafted!

People overrated Brown last year. Solid is a big stretch. Dude sucked in pass protection. 

What did he say about Ford?

I'm happy at least one other person realizes Brown was a nice story last year, but is no stud.

He had a solid rookie season for a mid level pick, but got chewed up at times and JA bailed him out.

 

As for Ford:

He is still in the mix on OL

They think he has the skills to be in the NFL

They want to see what Kromer can do with him

they had conversations with him this off season and he has a blank slate to start over

He was leagues better than Darryl Williams, to say he sucked is disingenuous.

Really surprised they did not get an IOL.

1 really late OT pick.

 

Quessenberry can run block at RT.

Ford had a vote of confidence by Beane last night. Foolish IMO

Mancz has been a good UDFA story as a backup C but is hanging on

Boettger is coming off of an Achilles and will probably not be able to play this year
