Tipster19 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 He was a great soldier last year when we needed defensive help the most. He wants to be here and it would help keep continuity on the DL imo. I’m surprise this hasn’t happened yet, it looks like the money is the issue right now but with a little bit of effort this should get done fairly easily. A 1 year contract like Jordan Phillips’, would make the most sense at this time, you know with the salary restrictions that the Bills are currently facing. I’d also like to see this thread become a petition to help make this cause happen but if anybody disagrees then I’d like to know the reason(s) why, everybody has a right to their opinion so please let’s hear the pros and cons. Bring back Shaq! 2 3 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichRiderBills Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I'd take him back at the right price, but not sure of value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airseven Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I was surprised by Lawson last season. He still has some fire left. Would’ve preferred to bring him back instead of Phillips. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I'd only offer slightly above league minimum, I too would have preferred him back instead of Phillips, who is a complete sieve in run defense, and only flashes once in a blue moon with the pass rush. But hey he pumps up the drunks in the stadium 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan130 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Nothing against Shaq as he played solid, but if we bring him back we are literally running it back with the same D line as last year that wasn’t good enough in the first place. Add on Von coming off of an acl tear. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Loved how he played last year. He & just about everyone were even better when Miller was in the line-up. I really think that w/ McD calling plays, our D can be a true #1, and totally fierce. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be used in pass rush situations only, at this point of his career. Hoping we land another big 1 technique in the draft, that can be primarily used on early downs.

HappyCat Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Look out for Kingsley Jonathan in the mix of DE's for the Bills. He's the undrafted kid from Syracuse and has major quickness off the ball. I believe he is signed for this season and the next. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring back Shaq! There is a misconception that he was good last season........he had the same kind of modest impact that he had in 2017 and 2018 when he also played around 450-475 snaps and produced similarly. The front office and fans alike were extremely disappointed in that version of Shaq and he had his 5th year option declined. He is quite simply a league minimum player at this point. Jordan Phillips should have been a league minimum only signing as well. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalosouth Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I'd like to see Groot come into form and develope into a complete player that could ease the rotation of the line. Shaq can definitely set the edge better. We need somebody on the line that is too good to take out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
