Might not be a bad depth signing to go along with Bates This I could see, but I’m not sure how much we are looking at guard at the moment. Definitely a depth type player and the experience certainly helps. Might find a better offer on a team like the Rams but I think they just traded for someone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheap contract. But no space for him after signing Cook. Much like there was no room for Moore at WR after adding Cobb and Lazard for higher salary. They have one...MAYBE 2 shots at doing anything with this roster before they have to rebuild again...with less money and less good players under cheap deals.

I think we're good at G with McGovern, Torrence, Bates and Edwards. Agree. Guard position on paper looks as good as it has in a couple decades. If Torrence keeps playing well and Bates slides to C next year, they will be solid up the middle for the next three years. Let's them invest in OT to replace Dawkins next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 One thing I’ve wondered is if the Bills knew of a LB that would be cut but didn’t want to trade for him. Their actions at MLB were very odd. Maybe they knew Kirksey would be released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not what he once was though. He's not but what he is is a guy with experience at the back end of his career (read that as "shouldn't command a huge contract") and someone that Beane obviously liked before. It makes too much sense to me. I also wouldn't be shocked if he is added after week 1 when vet contracts are no longer automatically guaranteed for the season.

I mean that tweet might as well have written by Kirksey's agent, but if he is indeed healthy it makes a lot of sense. At the very least I consider Kirksey to be a replacement level player. I can't say that for sure about our current options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
