jdubs Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 we signed hangartner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayFinkle Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Ok, so he must have started every season he played then. I'm sorry that you're in denial that the Bills want to pin their interior line help on a career backup, and you can't deny that's what he's been. Do I like the signing if we get him? Of course. We need quality depth guys like him on the interior of the line. But if we still don't draft a center or get more quality bodies there and expect Hangartner to be our next great for 10 years then I'd be extremely worried. I live in Carolina, I watch the Panthers every week. I follow the team quite closely. I am curious to know what your basing your opinions and statements on because so far, you're just making an ass of yourself. Carloina would love to still have him. It is a contract and numbers game.

RayFinkle Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Nice...quality player. He did a hell of a job down here in Carolina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball'n Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Looks like we found our Center, most likely that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they'd love to have him back. Solid interior lineman that can play all 3 positions as a backup are important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Kendall Simmons? Yeah, he was a solid starter and 1st rd. pick. But a torn Achilles from last season?? Doesn't that take at least 2 years to get back as full flexibilty as is possible? Huge risk. Though it could be a solid, long term solution. I don't like Simmons because of the injury. The Steelers had to know what they were doing when they released him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Capolupo Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I am not well versed on him, I can't admit to seeing him in live action much, but hasn't he played guard and center? If so which would he be a better fit in and would he contend for the starting LG spot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is me telling it like it is so bad? I like the guy, I love the signing. But he's not great, and that's the truth. He's an upgrade, and seems like a quality person. He's not outstanding, and probably not better than decent/good. What am I saying that is wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson from Gamehendge Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Solely based on how effectively Williams and Stewart ran up the middle this year, I'd say we have a winner. He's a really big guy too. He is NOT really big. He is smaller than Duke Preston, and 10 lbs lighter (2 inches bigger) than Fowler was. *I have read that he is not very strong against the NT's of the 3-4. He will probably be our LG.

Steely Dan Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Look I hope he pans out. I admit, I dont know much about the guy. I know that he has some kind of quality to be an NFL player. But..... I kinda get tired of signing teams backups to be our starters.......sometimes its ok to sign guys who have made pro bowls, you know guys who have been productive. Same crap every year.....we raid other teams backups constantly and it gets us nothing. But I really do hope the guy works out if he indeed did sign. Mitchell and Dockery go against that statement and Stroud goes against the next. IIRC, Langston Walker was a starter too. This isn't meant for you specifically but Dockery's contract dispels the myth of Ralph being cheap too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 While having never seen him play. I only have to go on the words of a couple panther fans I know, who didnt like the idea of losing hangartner and wanted the panthers to re-sign him. Wait and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense, can't say I read the text word for word like yourself more or less read it and remember him starting at both if I remember correctly. But let's nit-pick rather and give stellar responses like your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
