Just that it’s not that big of a deal… you aren’t laying on your back moving opposing defenders around the field. Leverage my friend is way more important for a 300lb+ guy than reps on a bench press. guys with short arms get more reps in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still would like a bit more at OT though, but it is what it is Might as well grab Dawand Jones.

Just saying let's wait and see how he plays. He dropped for a reason and he appears slower and lumbering at times. I like his size and how he can maul players at the attack point. I'm told his draft profile says he's a plug and play starter with potential to be elite. I'll take it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'm just tired of the Kromer love. I haven't really seen anything special from him. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's not his fault. Just seems like he gets a lot of credit here without the goods sort of speak. Not saying he's a poor coach just not seeing glaring positive results either.

Boettger and Edwards will compete to backup at guard while Bates backs up Morris. The Bills will try to trade the loser of the Boettger/Edwards competition for a late round pick in 2024. I think that’s the assumption Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Very happy with this pick. If he starts I think Bates is your swing OT in 2023 and possibly the starting C in 2024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCAS Baritone Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 No sacks in 4 years and zero penalties in 2022 suggests that this guy doesn't make mental mistakes. When you're this big, just being in the right place at the right time is worth a lot. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he's a poor coach just not seeing glaring positive results either. what exactly have you looked for with him? it’s easier to just say you don’t know him but didn’t like last years line. he was good last stint, and was great with the saints. See his development of Carl nicks and jahri evans as guard projects that became all pros. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 May have already been posted but just read he gave up 0 sacks in college and not even a pressure in 2022. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
