The wingspan comes from his shoulder width. I see he can hug a section of wall better than a tree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L Ron Burgundy Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Yessss! Exactly what we needed most on def. Feelin better about the d now. Hopefully White is back in form along with eventually Vonn and we're a top unit again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillMafia716ix Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Good signing. Would like to see us grab another edge defender. To push Boogie Basham off the roster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His dead cap hit is almost a million more than his cap hit this year. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/tim-settle-25264/ You're correct just thought folks would want to see what you're talking about Keep in mind this was a re-work the Bills did this off season to lower his cap hit this year at the expense of creating more dead money next Edited May 2, 2023 by Beck Water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 1 hour ago, BADOLBILZ said: At his age Daquon needs to be year to year. I'm really hoping for a MLB that doesn't need to be kept spotless. Instincts would be a nice change. Yes , agreed on both counts Settle is not awful , but Oliver cant hold down two lineman at the line, and of course was not acquired to do so. My idea for getting a true MLB was not solved during FA although perhaps it could have been ? Maybe Dorian will develop into that. But 1st season I want him to have the help up front with another player like Jones via the draft to allow him time to process whats about to happen to him LOL Wishful , I know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sign Josh Allen from the Jaguars next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 1 hour ago, Warriorspikes51 said: “5 feet 11 and 310 pounds, he is one of the most uniquely shaped defensive tackles but with the wingspan of a 6-foot-8 human being. The shorter base and long arms help him keep defenders off his pads while holding his ground. Ford seems like a terrific fit for the one-technique position in the Bills’ defensive scheme, which is also Jones’ natural spot. Ford will likely be a core rotational defensive tackle” - Joe B The Athletic We'll see. Hopeful though ! Go Bills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, Over 29 years of fanhood said: Ed’s playing for his next contract… my read is it’s going to be his best year by far Some posters say this a lot when a contract year comes up for a player. I mean if considering the circumstances regarding the situation the upcoming contract year and there's no significant difference from last year(s).... I just ask do you really believe said player just because of his contract year will now light it up and have his record year suddenly?

3rdand12 Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 1 hour ago, GunnerBill said: Surely the end for Tim Settle? Poona and Daquan as the 1T, Ed and Big Phil at 3T. But still 0 DTs signed beyond 2023. i think not for Settle, age is a factor But leverage to add 2 years ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 4 hours ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: Yes I know. They could also extend Oliver. I don’t get the logic here. How is a player too good to trade but not good enough to extend? Opportunity cost He's too good to trade because it leaves a gaping hole in the defense and you are not committed to him beyond this year. He's not good enough to extend because there is a salary cap and you can't pay everyone. If you extend Oliver you really eat up a lot of cap in the future.

3rdand12 Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 1 hour ago, MasterStrategist said: I don't think that about Settle. I could see us carrying 5 Dts, especially with how snake bit they were with injuries at Dt LY. Beyond 2023, my money is on an Ed extension sometime before training camp. Daquon is likely a year-to-year type at this point of his career, similar to Phillips. Then certainly FA/draft, not worried about 2024 at this point. I hope McBeane has concerns about 2024 and is thinking ahead ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapperCam Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 5 hours ago, mannc said: And this is why you don't spend a first round pick on defensive tackles, unless they are Jeffrey Simmons, Chris Jones or Aaron Donald. You don’t know if they are those guys until they are drafted and play a while, lol. If you have a crystal ball to know how draft picks will work out, could you give me some stock tips?

Rigotz Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 4 hours ago, buffaloaggie said: Poona makes whoever we play's job at ILB a lot easier. Double team Ford, and it frees up the linebacker to make plays. Not sure anyone really was double teamed on the D-line. Sure always seemed like some blocker was there to account for Edmunds. DaQuon Jones did a better job of this than any Bills DT the past 10 seasons. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78thealltimegreat Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 I didn’t think they’d be able to add a player of Poonas level I’d thought they’d a Vet Edge in 1 year but the power to play with Josh Allen is strong…he will fit in beautifully here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Good signing especially if Phillips or Daquan get dinged like last year & have to sit for a couple of games i think he should be a big help in the run game too . Beane is relentless i hope his entire career as a GM is with the Bills !! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question: Do you feel Edmunds had a significantly better 2022 season than previously? Some people who watch games closely seem to think so Others point out that his statistics for tackles etc were very similar to previous years, and attribute improvement to better line play keeping the LB clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
