Chief D Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Bills OG Nick Hennessey (Colgate) DL David Lindquist (Illinois) OT Joel Bell (Furman) TE Travis McCall (Alabama) DT Ventrell Jenkins (Kentucky) LB Solomon Elimimian (Hawaii) K Danny Urrego (Portland State) DE Gerald Washington (USC) S Tyrrell Herbert (Toldeo) Does anyone have any insight as to how these players will add value or make 53 man roster or PS?? I looked up their stats and some are quite impressive! I definitly like Bell, Hennessey and Eliminian!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawaiiBuffalo Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 LB Solomon Elimimian was an absolute Stud at LB for pretty much his entire career at UH, yes its the WAC, but he was all over the place as he was Co-Defensive PLayer of the Year this past season. He was an OLB his entire career until last year they moved him inside so he could make more plays. He'll give Ellison a ton of competition and he should have a chip on his shoulder as everyone here in Hawaii thought he was worthy of being drafted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertpaul49 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 TE Travis McCall is 260 to 270 lb blocking tight end that will most likely be converted to FB per SI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked up their stats and some are quite impressive! I definitly like Bell, Hennessey and Eliminian!!!!!! We had Bell at RD5#135 with the knock on him being he's pretty much a Tackle-only type. Ventrell Jenkins was RD7, definitely a guy people had to put 2 guys on to prevent him from collapsing the pocket. Watched him in the bowl game and they neutralized him with 2 guys, but he was a bit slow. Think a svelte Pat Williams. Space eater type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 TE Travis McCall is 260 to 270 lb blocking tight end that will most likely be converted to FB per SI. As of right now I'd say he has the best chance to make the team, as a fb. A Very very good blocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NFL.com go to draft and player by position there is great tape on Bell and profiles on travis McCall. Bell is very agile and athletic not your fat Lineman but carrys 300+ lbs on his 6'7" frame huge hands long arms. looks like an LT to my untrained eye. He is a lot quicker than the guy doing the mirror drill with him. Nice blurb on Travis McCall too. I will check out the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like a promising prospect. Much more promising than Dameatbell, like my brother likes to call him, IMO. At least he can put up 27 reps. Demetrius only put up only 6, right? I guess the only thing that remains to be seen is if he (J. Bell) can handle elite competition at the NFL level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If some one only needs to lift to get stronger and Play to get more exp, that makes him more promising then some one who already puts up 27 reps on bench and can't get drafted. Quit calling him DAMEATBELL that's TRBL He put up 9 Reps, and still played well enough to get praise from an NFL team that produced Peters, they are acting like he is good enough a year out of northwestern state, way more upside. Demetrius Bell wayyy more promise than this guy, what did all these teams pass up on Joel just so He could start for us this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much fun would it be if we had Two Bells starting One at LT and one at RT. They could be known around the league as the "Bills Bells" Hopefully not the "Ding Dong Bells" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
