I wonder what we have offered AZ, if anything yet. Would a 3rd and 6th do it? If they land DHop with all the other pieces they’ve added, the burden fully shifts to McDermott and Dorsey to game plan and utilize all the weapons they have. Cardinals refuse to eat any of his money. They told him they would only trade him if he agreed to take a pay cut. There is NO reason for a 31 year old WR to take a pay cut. He is back in AZ to earn his money and I don't blame him for it. 14 minutes ago, billsfan89 said: Genuinely asking, why do you feel that way? Seems like this is a defensive player that the Bills had their eye on since the early stages of free agency. Either way I like the deal. Because it's what he wants and that's literally it. If we signed a punter he would be saying it was a precursor to shedding salary to sign Nuk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I have to say that Beane clearly recognizes the same deficiencies that most fans do. He might not get it done in the exact order everyone on here wants him to…but he definitely has a plan. No telling whether it all works but it’s clearly not random.

Poona is a good middle 34NT that most people do not value; but people know this guy. he will be a solid addition. edit i think he can come in on a 43 defense and contribute. we play 3-2 and 4-2. in this case, i think a lot can be done if we run a 4-3 with poona in the middle. especially because we use a de like an outside LB.

I was jumping for joy when we drafted him and now I'm just meh on him. Is it inconsistency? Lack of a good big man next to him? He does a really good job in trenches and that is hard to quantify. You don’t see him getting crushed in the run game and splits double teams in the zone game. I think coaching and his usage has not helped him. They should move him around to create mismatches. In a gap attacking defense he seems to take on a lot of blockers all of the time. Where he is lacking, and where he can take it to the next level is he needs to use his quickness more. Some players are selfish on the dline, leave everyone else out to dry to get their’s. you’ve probably heard stories about JJ Watt being that type…he got his but his teams always sucked, he didn’t do the dirty work. Oliver doesn’t do that. He plays good team defense, and that is what Beane is talking about when he talks about things that don’t show up on the stat sheet. If he played for “him” he would have more sacks and splash plays. He plays a very disciplined form of football. It’s on the coaches to unleash him more imo. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In their previous 4-3, Poona was a beast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
