Warriorspikes51 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Any chance he’s brought back for much less of a cap hit? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it'll be Anderson and I'm good with that. The one position on line that was a bit light in the ass was Morse at C. Anderson fits the physical mode the Bills have been building their line with. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f0neguy Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I think there’s a good chance that a couple of the top two/three centers will be available later in the second round. Another young mauler next to Torrence would be nice to see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeTeam Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Wow, I'm just catching up on things. Daam, I liked Morse from a leadership/ person standpoint but I get the reasoning. I hope our next center is a real anchor up front, that the only knock I had against Morse. A big thank you to Mitch for being an outstanding member of the Buffalo Bills. A class act though and through. Will be missed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I think McGovern will be just fine in that spot Lots of pics this year one of them will be a center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st&ten Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Well right now they're saying McGovern at center but there's a good chance that our center for next year isn't on the roster yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) Joe Marino (on his podcast) gives a good breakdown on why the Bills may view McGovern better at C than he was at G. Hides his vulnerability in the run game and allows him to showcase his athleticism more. Edited March 7 by SCBills 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2Moulds Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) 5 hours ago, Realist said: Aging, concussion history, 8 million cap hit...not sure why so many are surprised at this one. He was not old for a Center. In the 5 years he's been here he's played in 17,16,13,17, and 14 games. Pretty durable if you ask me. Is there some concussion history, yes. Draft and develop a guy, and than make your move. It's doing it without a replacement yet, that really sucks. And I'm sorry, as good as this regime has been, I don't have a lot of confidence when it comes to the oline. It took them way too long to get it right in the 1st place, only to tear it down after 1 year. Passing on Humphrey, drafting Ford, trading teller.

Rew Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 They have to feel pretty good about McGovern at C. I didn't think they would move on Morse till next season after this year's day 2 center draft pick has some reps, but if Connor has demonstrated he can do it the cap savings are great. Dawkins has looked good with multiple guards next to him, not too concerned about them filling that gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turk71 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I don't think McGovern was very good at guard. I hope they are not already determined to make him the starting center, he may not be good enough. Obviously there is a lot of time, draft, free agency, etc. until next season, hoping they have a plan where McGovern is a backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where you’re coming from with that McGovern was excellent at pass protection He’s never gonna be a mauler in the run game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyBills Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Biggest concern is we lose 5 captains, likely. Hyde, Gabe, ,Po, Morse and Mactavitch , he might be re signed cheap though. Need guys like Dawkins, Oliver, Milano even though he's not a rah rah guy and maybe Douglas to step up their leadership as vets. 4 hours ago, SCBills said: Joe Marino (on his podcast) gives a good breakdown on why the Bills may view McGovern better at C than he was at G.
