Stef got to the point where he was laughing at him because the dude won't ask a straight question. He was just rambling on about the events of the offseason. I feel like Wawrow always tries to make the interaction about him rather than the guy giving the press conference 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody said he hasn’t been a disappointment. Find me proof of that. My point is by saying he isn’t a fit in Buffalo after one year is beyond silly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 19 minutes ago, MikePJ76 said: of course I am not saying it means he has no future or something dumb like that. What i am saying is that they needed better play inside and they drafted a guy with the size and ability to do just that. There is no reason he should not start from day 1. Day 1 means opening night. if he doesn't then he probably has an issue with his ability or physical condition. I just think its nuts that people think he needs to be babied and spoonfed his way into the lineup. He is playing the position that is the easiest to come in and play in the nfl. I am confused by the type of thinking that he needs to come along slowly, guard is a spot you step right in and play, not a big deal for a decorated 2nd round pick. Well good thing its July? Its not babying or spoonfeeding - its earning your spot. Veterans who worked hard to get where they are respond to pressure from players like this. He's got his work cut out for him to start day 1 with a young player in Bates ahead of him, and guys like boettger and edwards fighting for a roster spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back up what you say! I'd say I was relatively disappointed he didn't seize a starting position, but he played pretty well in the playoffs. Day 1 depth charts really don't mean much though as you gotta put pads on and get into it for coaches to get a feel for their role in a changing defense. All 3 of jackson benford and elam played a year ago with various results - who gets the first day with the 1's really doesn't mean anything when its a 3 man competition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile…we addressed the offense for once and that could be the piece that gets us over the top. I highly doubt we will be looking back at the end of the year saying…if we just had Edmunds there to make that tackle it could have ended differently. 4 minutes ago, newcam2012 said: I didn't say it as an absolute.

I'm not going to sit here and say it's not a concern, but some of our podcast guys act like the MLB spot being an open competition, post-Edmunds, is some sort of seismic event that could dramatically alter our season. I'm beyond sick of the dramatics about replacing Edmunds. When healthy: Von/Floyd - Daquan/Poona - Oliver/Phillips - Rousseau/AJE Milano - ??? Tre - Johnson - Elam/Benford/Jackson Hyde - Poyer - Rapp I mean... c'mon... That's easily a top 5 talented defense. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he takes Tarons spot but he'll be our big nickel starter. Essentially acting as a LB.

He will need time, then by mid-season, we will see where he's at. I agree. I say only a 70% chance Bates starts more so because I think Edwards could step in and beat him out, rather than Torrance. my hope is (and all bills fans hope is), that Torrance turns out to be better than expected and hits the ground running. It’s just unlikely 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone that watches football can see that a good defense gets you to the playoffs and a good offense takes over at that point. We spent two 3rds for this moment alone and they were ok with letting edmunds walk. Guys like Joe Marino seem to think it’s gonna be the doomsday that ruins our season. I just don’t agree at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
