scribo Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I still say landing LeCharles Bentley would be a bigger deal for a long time. But we'd be very lucky to get either him or Hutchinson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we can at least DREAM about competent management at OBD, can't we? EDIT: Of course we can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booya2 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 With Marv here, I wouldn't be at all surprised if we could land Hutch and Bentley. The era o' Donahoe is over. This is Marv's time, and we will get O-lineman up in this mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Marv's time, and we will get O-lineman up in this mix. 596366[/snapback] Yeah, because God knows no other teams in the NFL (with much better records, better coaching staffs and more cap space) will be going after both of them. They're all ours baby! There are a lot of good O-Lineman in free agency aside from Bentley and Hutchinson. I fear this is going to be the Mike Sherman situation all over again...fans have their hearts unrealistically set on Bentley and when he doesnt sign with Buffalo, the board will get pissy.

This is Marv's time, and we will get O-lineman up in this mix. 596366[/snapback] I love the "Marv is our Savior" spin.....Yet let it not be forgotten that it was under Marv when our dominating O-line of 1990 ended up with the like of Jerry Crafts, Jerry Ostroski, Corbin Lacina, etc. Yeah....Marv will right the ship, not because that's what he always did, but ONLY if he's learned from his own past mistakes. Marv was very much responsible for the beating Kelly took the last 3-4 years of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You jsut have to watch and analyze the guy for yourself. Many, many people said Mike Williams was dominant.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in Bentley and we could be on our way. 596120[/snapback] Agreed 100%. He's a great player and thats the end of it. I doubt the Seahawks won't resign this guy. This guy is simply an outstanding guard. I think I would rather have Hutch then Bentley to tell you truth. One or the other would be an upgrade and a huge boost.

Add in Bentley and we could be on our way. 596120[/snapback] One of the TV talking heads said yesterday - can't recall which among the myriad of SB hyperbole - that the Seattle organization is saying internally that keeping Hutchinson and their O-line intact is a higher priority than resigning Alexander. What a novel idea, huh? If true, this doesn't bode well for Hutch landing in Buffalo or anywhere else, for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's wrong for Bills fans to demand the best free agents get a massive offer from the team. 596426[/snapback] Jeff Backus Kevin Shaffer Tom Ashworth Jon Runyan LJ Shelton Tutan Reyes Stephen Neal Kyle Kosier Kevin Shaffer is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated players in the NFL. He would be a huge signing for us and would soldify the LT spot. I'm not saying those guys are better than Hutch or Bentley (with the exception of Shaffer being at their level...and only 26 I might add), all I'm saying is there are a lot more options out there. If we cant land Hutch or Bentley, we can easily go out and sign some of the quality, yet less-famous players in the NFL. Worked for the Patriots.

Wasn't he universally derided around these parts last offseason? I'll have to look up this Shaffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have a clue what he is capable of Marv era will not last as long. 596805[/snapback] If we don't have a clue what he is capable of, How come your sure the Marv era won't last long? As for Hutch, many here will probably blame Juron or Levy, or Wilson if he resigns tomorrow with Seatle and say Buffalo did nothing to get him and we will not win a game this year and that they are realists for thinking that I really can't see them not bringing him back if he is as good as everyone is saying and they are not going to be running into cap problems next year. Same with Bentley, except being in N.O. he may not wanna resign with them and look for a new deal somewhere more stable. It would be great to get both but I don't see it happening.
