BuffaloBillyG Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Meh. Ok signing, but didn't think LBer was a pressing "1st signing in FA" type need. Hopefully, this is just depth and not a reflection of where Milano is physically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know the exact numbers, but I also suspect they’ll be higher in 2024 than they were in 2023. It isn’t a question that we use a 3rd LB though, not all the time. If I recall, we used one more the second half of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 If ya want, go back and watch him vs the Bills. He was awful. Late hit on Allen, then he called out Josh saying he’s a crybaby or something. Then he had a cheap shot on Diggs. He was also the guy 5 yards behind Cook on the pass he dropped. This is a nothing, nobody signing.

ngbills Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Bills sign Klein or Mata - great moves they know the system and are McD guys. Better than what else you can get on the market. Bills sign scrub #1 - great move and better than Klein and Mata. Those guys are awful and should not be in the league. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
first_and_ten Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 20 minutes ago, JMM said: Yikes, looking at the replies on Twitter the Philly fans are literally laughing at this signing. All I know is that the LB and secondary were trash for them last year The home team is almost always harder on a player then what others see in him. He's actually got some good numbers.

LABILLBACKER Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 20 minutes ago, strive_for_five_guy said: He’s got to be better than AJ Klein, right? Yes he's better than Klein. This is probably a cheap depth replacement for Dodson. Last season...3 sacks, 95 tackles, 12 TFL's, 5 qb hits. I can live with this guy backing up Matt & Terrell. Just don't call Klein ever again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrags Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 10 minutes ago, TheyCallMeAndy said: Morrow ran a 4.54 or something like that… And AJ Klein ran a 4.66. The difference is unnoticeable to the untrained eye unless side by side. A 10th of a second. besides, what’s the point of your post? The both suck and neither are good enough to cover Travis Kelce. My argument was that we can say this won’t be starting, until he is because someone gets hurt again. Which always seems to be the case with us.

It isn’t a question that we use a 3rd LB though, not all the time. If I recall, we used one more the second half of the season. We had a ton of injuries which forced the Bills to do different things. The Bills aren’t taking any of Taron Johnson, Milano, or Bernard off the field for anyone. Maybe on 4th and inches Johnson would come off.

ColoradoBills Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 He signed a vet minimum contract with the Eagles last year. Was released and then signed to their PS. Was signed to the 53 a week later. I expect the same here in Buffalo. It's a guy who will fight for a depth LB spot. I don't see a problem. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just repeating “he sucks” with no context or data that supports your claims. Most backup LBs can’t cover Kelce. Hell, we have one of the best coverage LBers in the league in Matt Milano and HE can’t even cover Kelce. I’m looking at this from the ‘replace Tyrel Dodson’ perspective, where this is a good pickup for that role. A dude who can play MLB in a pinch and come in when we need that 3rd LB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruffalo Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 He'll be a backup / special packages / special teams player with starting experience. I suppose you can't ask for better.

CNYfan Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 This is kind of funny. They must see the value here somewhere. We have 11 draft choices, there are likely guys like this (without the experience) available on day 3. I don't know what this is about. I believe DL is a must in FA at this point.

msw2112 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) This guy might not even make the team. And if he does, he's a backup/depth player with starting experience on a playoff team that I'm sure didn't cost much, and he can probably play special teams. Nothing to get worked up about.

dpberr Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Weird Day 2 signing. This particular player is Preston Brown v2. The stats are deceptive. The Bills did not necessarily need one of the Eagles' slow linebackers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
