Virgil Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Why was he released? The Eagles are a team I would definitely look at for cuts, because they have such offensive line talent and depth 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Hart has "starting experience". That's such an empty term IMO. What I ask is what was the quality of those starts? How did this Fred Johnson (sounds like a Madden made up name) look? Was he RT? LT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmart128 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Not too late. Im sure we will add a depth OT with someone who was cut. Maybe even another MLB. But we will probably wait until roster cut day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 4th and long play where Brown gets annihilated off the snap against KC in the divisional round two years ago is still very vivid in my mind. This!! Josh managed to evade Chris Jones, Melvin Ingram and someone else all whom had him dead to rights on that play Brown got DESTROYED. It was pathetic.

without a drought Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Almost 1200 players will be cut in 5 days. They may find some veteran depth at tackle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 3 hours ago, Beast said: Any OT that is worth much of anything is not getting cut at this point. Traded, yes. Actually, that’s not so. Teams have been to release veterans who’ve been outplayed by a younger player or newcomer, but still have adequate skills an starting experience prior to cutdown date, to give them a better chance to catch on with another team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 The Bills need players who can block and catch passes. The do not need a QB who cannot pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanForever19 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 This guy was a backup Tackle when the Bengals line was absolutely dreadful. I don't see any way the team views him as an upgrade in talent over who we have and especially not since those guys have been with us for multiple offseasons and are familiar with the playbook and schemes. If you are rooting for this, you are rooting for literally anyone but what we have. Just because they aren't Quessenberry doesn't mean they're any better.
