Ralonzo Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) So since the replay is on NFLN and we're on the 3rd drive I'm keeping an eye on Hart at LT and Ford at LG. Ford is a bit inconsistent and I'm wondering if it's conditioning, because he's just ponderous. His punch is good and he holds ground but just not mobile at all. Hart on this drive looks... dare I say dominating? That 11 yarder from Moss, Ford and Hart combo for a flapjack on the tackle, but Hart gets right to the second level to plow a linebacker. He's consistently getting to the second level and executing on runs, getting great leverage and turning his man away from the play. On passes nobody's getting a sniff. The hell am I watching? Might as well stick around for the next couple drives... can check in on Anderson too. Edit: Tenuta comes in at LT and Hart to RG at the end of the drive, and Judy gets caved in while Hart is still driving guys off the line.

Ralonzo Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Still haven't seen Hart lose a rep cleanly on drives 3 and 4. Bonitto almost turned on him a couple times but Hart was able to push him wide enough. The Keenum throw-away later on drive 4, Hart and Ford flawlessly pass off a stunt. Granted it's not against the top top players that have made Hart look like a turnstile in the past but man, he's executing. With the Ford trade and Mancz situation, I understand people are worried about OL... but I don't think I would hate it if this edition of Bobby Hart makes the 53. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good trade but man what a whiff the selection of Ford was Agree it was a major whiff. Thankfully Beane and staff have been very very good at getting talent accumulated outside round 2. We all should call a spade a spade, Ford was a "positional need" pick at the time, trying to find our next RT. Turned out to be a horrible selection. He struggled with pass pro in college, and many talent evaluators had him pegged as an IOL. All around, it just didn't work out, which happens for every NFL team/GM. Making matters worse, we passed on talented/all-pro WRs that we could have also used at the time, but so did 29 other NFL teams. Getting a 5th round pick in return though, is interesting. Cards might view him as a fringe starter on their line. Beane gets credit for salvaging something, like many say. Overall, I still like our OL heading into this yr, compared to LY, along with Kromers ability to "coach them up". Not expecting a top 10 line, but likely in the 12-15 range. Marginal improvement, coupled with a more balanced attack and playcalling, will be enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you purchased the lemon at the expense of other players it is not so amazing. Its why I advocate trading down and getting more picks. We want to believe Beane is smarter than most, but it is still mostly a crap shoot. It's pretty damning to think they had Teller, traded him away, then drafted a bust to play RT, moved him to fail at G, and spent a fortune on a decent RT only to move him to G and then cut a year later. Ugly. Doesn't matter much. He got Allen and that is 80% of the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heathcliff Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I attended the second training camp. Early on the OL we’re all in one area of the EZ talking in preparation for start of training. Cody was standing all alone about 15 yards away just staring off. I had binoculars and could see on his face questioning himself about being there. It was actually quite sad. I hope a change a scenery helps him out. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) The Ford Report bows in the general direction of McBeane. The Jagoffs game last year sealed Ford's fate. Although he redeemed himself somewhat in the games he played after that, he never fully recovered. Ford was weak at the point of attack when blocking straight ahead. He lacked leverage and push, never really making the second level. What became clear from watching the tape is that he was most effective when pulling and trapping. He could block when on the move laterally, but straight ahead, not so much. His pass blocking in the Jagoffs game also left a lot to be desired. They sent exotic blitzes at him that clearly confused him. He kept blocking the wrong man on combo blocks, and was unable to slide to the correct player, instead watching that player go through the hole where Ford was supposed to be, on the way to abuse JA17. His pass blocking wasn't nearly as bad in the games that followed, but it was clearly not enough. Good luck to Cody Ford, but we are stronger without him.

He's the best GM this team has ever had in my opinion. You may have another and that's fine. The only thing that will change my mind is Brandon Beane making bad moves over and over and over. If he does, I'll change my mind. As another 50+ year Bills fan, I'm not sure Beane's the very best Bills GM ever. Bill Polian comes to mind. But in a long history of bad GMs, Beane does shine. Whatever anyone thinks of the Cody Ford pick, Beane has made far more good moves than bad. Beane inherited a weak roster and fairly quickly transformed it into one the best rosters in the NFL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Based on some of the information that's come out about Ford's mental makeup in recent days, it seems that this is one of very few cases where Beane and the scouting staff failed to properly vet a prospect's character. I'm a big believer in the football character archetype he looks for. I think it is an underrated reason for our overall roster from top to bottom being so strong. When players fail here, it isn't for lack of character or trying. Even the ones that don't quite pass muster as football players are still able to contribute because they care about the game and give their best effort. Having an entire team of people like that counts for something. Ford apparently didn't fit in with that crowd. He was lazy, unreceptive to criticism, entitled, weak in the face of adversity. I think Ford getting traded now is more a signal of the type of person they realized he is than a signal of how they see him as a football player. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
