The Bills at Edge even after the Parker pick could use a little back end depth/competition. If Hoecht wasn't coming off a major injury I would say the Bills were "fine" at Edge going into the draft and flushed at Edge coming out of it. But with some uncertainty with Hoecht and TJ just a rookie some competition there isn't a bad idea.

We have some edge guys at OLB, need DE's for this 3-4. 

 

 

Bring in all the pass rushers!!!

I want Hoecht at ILB as a chess piece.  He can bet guards in the run game, be an inside pass rush and cover the middle

I think we need a legit 4th guy at EDGE.  Danna would provide that.  Solomon could surprise, but not counting on that.

 

And Hoecht certainly won't be at ILB.  He's a good scheme fit for Leonhard's system at edge / possibly hand in dirt in under looks.  I haven't heard much on his rehab progress.  Likely a PUP candidate.

 

I like our group of DL for this new front --- Ed, Walker, TJ getting most of the interior 3 snaps --- and Landon, Carter/Mathis, Zane as depth.  Landon hopefully beefed up over the offseason, he played this exact position at Arksansas/4 4i tech.

 

I could see us adding to both spots to be honest.

Rousseau said Solomon is going to surprise a lot of people this season.

Hoecht said he’s ahead of schedule and hopes to be In training camp

I heard that too.  Which Bills Player Will Surprise This Year?  Without hesitation, Roos said Salomon.  DeWayne said Solomon is the strongest in the weight room.  That he puts up crazy heavy weights.  Solomon will be much better in a 3-4 than him trying to be Hoecht.  There only one Hoecht, and Lorenzo Alexander is not returning.

I was just about to say I’ve always liked what Solomon could be, at least in my mind. He was the opposite of what we had at the position with some bend and twitch, and it frustrated me that my visions of what he might do never materialized. I’d take a poor man’s Dwight Freeney, but I wouldn’t hate being a rich man! 

 

A guy can dream.

Ideally Hoecht is a "chess piece" that plays all around the defense, 60% pure edge but 25% at DE and 15% ILB or even NT. Just flex him all around. The Parker pick helps that by having someone off the bench after Groot/Chubb at EDGE but adding in a piece like Danna gives you some confidence in the competition around Solomon and Parker for those back end snaps.

Not sure he's an authority on surprising people...

Landon had no bend and bad knees. Im not counting on him to do anything.
