He lives in Charlotte and I lived there for 20 years and we've had some cool talks...I told him some fun stories about the good old days at The Township Grille... But he's not always right. It's funny because when he and Bruce Nolan do their "look back at the previous year and what I would have done show" every year...IMHO it's not THAT impressive in hindsight. I do far less film study and feel like I can go toe-to-toe...Not on the breaking down film side...Don't get me wrong. But in projecting who will be good in the NFL, and team building... Agreed I just thought it was funny reading that right after hearing what he said. I hope me and Marino are both dead wrong about Williams.

Jerboski Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 With his speed and coverage ability on obvious passing downs maybe we get him and Milano together 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 1 minute ago, BuffaloBillsGospel2014 said: How do you know they wont play? Are you Nostradomus or something? Fair point. But in the other poster’s defense, it seems very unlikely that both Bernard and Williams play any significant amount of time next year, or probably at all. Obviously that could change if Milano gets hurt, or if one of them fills the big nickel role or something. We play 2 LBs the vast majority of the time. Milano is an every-down player. That leaves one spot of regular play time between Bernard, Williams, Klein, Dodson, or Spector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 1 minute ago, DrDawkinstein said: I dont really get the pick, but at this point there arent any players left that I know that well anyways. Like others said, low talent draft. So it's whatever from here on out. I mean, valid.. we have kickers going in RD3. I would’ve liked Dawand Jones, but it sounds like scouts literally want to fight him, so there’s that. Ika would’ve been interesting given our DT contracts. Would’ve liked a WR like AT Perry, but I sure wont complain if we end up with Hopkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno the thought behind this, but I'm confident STs isn't more than the 3rd or 4th consideration here. No, not in the 3rd, but most years that guy is drafted somewhere, and he flames out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love having them both on my team because they are great team guys...But I just look at this Defense right now and wonder how in the world they are going to stop anyone from running the ball? I'm not overly impressed with their DT's, and their LB's are either small/light or Klein...It's just a weird mix... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurman#1 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) 13 minutes ago, boyst said: Edmunds was not the right choice and Milano was developed and a longshot. Edmunds was a good choice. Regardless of the pitchfork crowd that he attracted over the years. There's a reason he's now the 4th best paid off-ball LB, behind only Roquan, Shaquille Leonard and Fred Warner. And the reason he was developed was that he was drafted. By the Bills. As a longshot. You do know that drafting a longshot who becomes terrific says great things about your drafting, right?

Big Blitz Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Very late 3rd round pick in a weak draft. So not going to get angry about it. I think they just feel we need more speed at LB and I’m fine with that. They absolutely do and if he’s a good backup for Milano then that works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
