Bills signing OT Brandon Shell from miami

Didn’t see this posted. Former jests draft pick. 6’5” 325. It’s a one year deal. Decent depth or a fallback at RT? Discuss.

 

edit: Happy Memorial Day everybody.

IMO this is the best Bills roster since McDermott was hired. 
 

Im hoping for one more signing, either at WR or Edge.

 

For sure. They are pretty stacked and have good depth at most areas. MLB could be an issue but other than that they look pretty solid.

Beane deserves some criticism, but no one can really argue that he doesn’t continually upgrade the roster year after year.  
 

This year he faced a lack of cap and draft picks.   Still made it happen.  
 

This is where having Allen and “the culture” comes into play.  The ability to affordably sign guys like Ford, Harris, Rapp, now Shell.   We always wondered how good teams stayed good … this is how. 
 

Cap will be tight again next year, and should we sign Hop… VERY tight, but Beane is loaded with picks for the ‘24 draft and could potentially gain more comp picks for ‘25 in Davis and Oliver… when we will likely still be cap strapped.

Not worried about MLB because the worst case scenario is AJ Klein starts and they have to match personnel against 3wr+ sets with Taylor Rapp as a 3rd safety.

 

We have the personnel to play 1 LB and 3 safeties. 
 

In a perfect world a young LB steps up.

Watching last year Miami at Buffalo night game. Liking what I'm seeing so far. Got the weight to anchor. Little twitch for big man.

Have to believe that Tommy Doyle is kinda on the hot seat then as training camp starts in about 6 weeks or so and Shell didn’t do too bad as Miamis starter last year. 

Yeah I bet Quess and Shell take it and Doyle IR stash or PS. Maybe gets picked up by diff team. I doubt it tho.

Solid signing especially for this late in the off season. Lots of experience. Competition for Brown that hopefully he will be challenged by and rise to the occasion. 

Yeah nice insurance and competition for Brown. Beane does it again!

 

I do believe they want Brown to win the Job and Brown can with the job with how he played down the stretch last season. His biggest hole is learning how to counter pass rushers swiping his right arm up or down and getting around him. If he can fix that hes good imo. He played alot better his last 5 games than the games before that. But I like having Shell if his performance regresses again.
