Leonidas Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 What round was Jonas Jennings drafted in? Wait.....isn't Jonas still out there? He of course is not a long term solution but would provide an insurance policy. Not to be a dick, but it takes about 10 seconds to Google it. He was a third round pick. But I agree with your second part. I wouldn't at all be opposed to bringing him back for depth. His options can't be that widespread at this point, and he can handle the LT spot in a pinch. He's only 31 and the slightest breeze sends him into anaphalactic shock, but if D. Bell is still only doing 10 reps on the bench we might want to bring him back at the vet. minimum contract for depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Some much needed facts. The Niners released Jennings within hours after they reached agreement with Marvel Smith. In 4 seasons with San Francisco Jennings played in 23 out of a possible 64 games. He missed 31 games to injury. He has not officially retired although some would argue that he has already unofficially retired. He will be 32 years old this November. He has made over $20 million dollars in the NFL. There's probably a good reason or several that no team has shown any interest in him. I'm gonna guess he's not on any team's top twenty free agent list of offensive tackles.

For what it's worth- I met Jennings the summer before his last season in Buffalo, he was probably 26 or 27 at the time, and I was shocked by the amount of gray hair he had in his beard. He was a real nice guy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 What round was Jonas Jennings drafted in? Wait.....isn't Jonas still out there? He of course is not a long term solution but would provide an insurance policy. What kind of insurance is a guy who is healthy for 1-2 games a year?

2020 Our Year For Sure Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I'd much rather go into the season with Walker and Chambers at OT than with Kelsay at DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Do you think any of the other 31 NFL front offices really believe that the Bills are comfortable going into the season with Walker/Chambers/Bell playing the tackle positions? I don't think any team in the league understands why we do half the things we do. If they would care to follow our lead, they could all have losing records though.

H2o Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I still think we're trying to make a reasonable push for Brian Waters. If we get Waters I think we only go after one OT early and depth in the 4th or on. If the deal for Waters doesn't work out I think we will draft atleast 1 OG and OT in the first 3 rounds, then I think we'll sign Kendall Simmons to a 1 or 2 year deal.

rackemrack Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I'd much rather go into the season with Walker and Chambers at OT than with Kelsay at DE. if you're lucky, walker, chambers, and kelsay will all be starters in the first game of the season!
