• 2:04
  Speaker 1: As always here on this show and in this episode
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: of Disguy's coverage, we'll be diving into the Buffalo Bill's
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: initial fifty three man roster just released. Oh maybe like
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: fifty minutes ago, forty minutes ago roughly, depending on what
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: time if you're joining us live or whenever you're watching this.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: We're recording this live here Tuesday, August twenty sixth seven Eastern. Yeah,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: so the roster just went live. I just started getting
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: caught up with it as I was creating this episode
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: and going through. Andrew, thank you very much for telling
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the rest of the chat there that it's a casino reference.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Appreciate you very much for that for the blueberry muffins reference. Yeah,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: the roster just came through. The Bills were one of
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: the last teams I believe to kind of push out
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: their initial fifty three. So we're going to dive into that.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Likes dislikes, strengths, concerns, worries, surprises, how the injured and
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: suspended players will come you know, kind of kind of
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: come to pass later in the season when they're eligible
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: to come back, but we think could potentially drop off
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: from the roster at that point. But we're going to
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: dive into all of that as we go forward here
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: on this show, and with an episode like this, especially
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: this time of year, as the season is upcoming and
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: everybody's excited, sometimes emotions are running high. In conjunction with that,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: any questions, thoughts, comments, concerns, anything and everything you folks have,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: feel free to put it into the live chat. We
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: will be diving into as much as physically possible as
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: we go through here in this episode. Especially on the
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: episodes where I run solo, I like to make them
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: as interactive as possible. This is always a very interactive
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: show and engaging show with the chat, but especially when
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: I run solo, like to bring up as many comments
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: and thoughts as we can throughout the entirety of the episode.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: As always, super chats get priority because I respect the
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: monetary donation, and the color distracts me from my eyes
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: and my notes and all of those pieces. We're going
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to grab several comments from the chat before we dive in,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and we're just gonna start ripping and running with this
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: roster truck. Viewer's first one in. First one in gets
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: first comment says, hi, all, what's up? The first comment
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: here says good decisions? Well, second comment, I should say
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: good decisions. I think let's see who we can get
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: back on the practice squad Jackson, Wilkerson, Gore kind of
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: a plus and etc. We're going to be diving into
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: that segment towards the back end of this episode. In
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: terms of practice squad priorities, players we'd like to see,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Noah says, depending on Trey, what are the odds we
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: make Bradbury Josh Norman two point zero? I'm gonna say
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: low at this stage, just given where Bradbury is, where
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the bills are, what they're looking for, I'm gonna say low.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: John says plenty of positives. Chris says, who were the
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: real surprises? Though? In terms of the cuts, we're gonna
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: get into some of that. This comment, I just woke
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: up and haven't seen the cuts. This show will be
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: my first time hearing them. I'm glad that you joined
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: me here. Thank you for waking up in time. Thank
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: you for being here. A little bit of a different
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: time for disguise coverage tonight, not the normal nine pm Eastern,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: obviously you're live, but seven pm Eastern. That's because I
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: have some day job stuff. Some of you folks you
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: may know that I do some things with folks overseas.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: So I have a late night call tonight, which is
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: interfering with the Disguyi's coverage time. That's why we're going
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: a little live earlier tonight, which works out because of
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the news that drop. Just Tippykinnou says, Go Sports team.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I like it. We got some blueberry muffins comments in
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the chat and got that funneling through comment here. What
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: are your thoughts on keeping six wide receivers even with
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: all the injuries to cornerback? We are going to one
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: thousand percent dive into both of those pieces. I like
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: this coming here now. I just really want a muffin.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Oh Matt saying, did Dwayne Carter deserve to make the roster?
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Steve the barbarus Josh Allen made the team a little
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: bit of surprise, A little bit of surprise, Die Forever
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: coming in saying, and after two seasons in a row
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: of them only taking five wide receivers into week one,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: does six wide receivers shock you a little bit? I
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: find it a little surprising, but also kind of not.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: We're to get into it as we get into the
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: wide receiver spot. But I like where head's at there.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Bills are electric, saying, I don't think the Bills will
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: be claiming a random player around the league because the
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: fifty two and fifty three man on the roster, players
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: that know the system and are worth keeping. I think
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: that is very very well said. Oh stup Mode says like, yeah,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I'm kind of late, so a full breakdown on the
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: cuts would be appreciated. Absolutely. I'm gonna pull up the
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: roster from the official Bills site. We're gonna go through
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: a player by player obviously, see who's not included there,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: discuss them and all that kind of stuff. Bob bob
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: by what else? What else? Andrew says, So Trey must
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: not be hurt that bad fingers crossed, very superstitious, but
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: fingers crossed on that front and that regard. All right,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: let us dive into the roster. I'm gonna pull up
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: as I mentioned the Bills official This is right off
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills website. This is their roster breakdown by position.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Start here picture of Josh Allen and then the breakdown
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: by position there. Some of you saw the running back
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: and wide receiver ones a little bit of a spoiler,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: but we'll start here. Not too much to talk about
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I think here when it comes to the QB position.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: But again, if anybody has any thoughts, feel free put
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: it up into the chat. John Robert says, I didn't
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: think Brandon Codrington would have made the fifty three man
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: roster spoiler. He did. He looks to be the returner
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: for this team, hence why I put him in the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: graphic for this episode. But some QB pieces we'll lead off.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go in order as they have it
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: here on the site. Keep it nice and succinct for
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: all you folks, especially because I'm sharing essentially the site
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: there and don't want to make it too much of
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: like a spoiler thing what I'm showing, what we're not showing,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: So we'll just go in order here. I don't think
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: too much to talk about when it comes to the
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: QB's aside from I thought Mike White played well. Mike
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: White was my hope in kind of overtaking Mitch Trubisky
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: this offseason. But Trubisky played well in camp, and my
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: biggest issue with Trubisky was, and I've talked about it
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: a bit on the show, I felt like he was
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: a bit broken, like mentally or spiritually or emotionally after
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: his time in Chicago, which is understandable, right the Bear's
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: trade up for him. He goes into a major city
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: that loves his football and is very critical when things
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: aren't going well. He has some success early on and
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: then kind of falls off a cliff, as does that
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Bears team comes to Buffalo, goes to Pittsburgh, comes back
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: to Buffalo. But I felt like he played very cautiously,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: very safe, wasn't really letting it rip in preseason and
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: camp really much of anything. And I again, like a
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: lot of people say and know, if Josh Allen goes down,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: this team is in trouble. But I still wanted somebody
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: at the QB two spot that I thought could be
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: a little bit more of a gunslinger and rip it
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: a little bit. And Mike White has shown more of
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: that in recent years than Trubisky. Had, but I thought
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Trubisky played well in the preseason. A couple of nice
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: balls on the move, the deep shot to Shavers at
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: the end of the first half against the Giants, really
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: nice play in the pocket. I think also against the
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Giants there, or it may have been the second game
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: against the Bears where I think it was the Giants
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: game where he evades spins while in the pocket, avoids
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: the pressure, slings one side arm to Palmer. It was
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: at against the Giants, just a really nice move there.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Showed some athleticism, showed some arm strength, and some poise.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: I thought he played well. And because he played well
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: and played well enough, I thought Mike White or even
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Shane Bouchelle was gonna have to do a lot to
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: overtake Trubisky, given the respect that Trubisky has built and
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: credibility that he's built within the organization, the QB room,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the staff, and this franchise overall. So I thought it
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: would either have to beat Trubisky really falling off a
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: cliff or Mike White really surpassing him and bawling out.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: And I thought Triubsky played well. I thought Mike White
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: played well as well, but not enough to overtake Trubisky,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: So I'm not completely surprised by this. Obviously, here we
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: see only two qbs. We'll see who the Bills keep
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: on the practice squad. Is it Mike White, Is it
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Shane Bouschell? Is it somehow both thought Bouschelle played really
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: well in the preseason finale against the Bucks, really owning
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: the offense completely from start to finish and playing well.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: And I like Trubisky in theory if he can get
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: a little more of Bears Mitch Trubisky. That might sound
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: negative considering how his time in Chicago ended up, but
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: if he can tap into that athleticism again and that
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: mobility and some of the playmaking and just the explosives
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: that he was able to generate, I'm okay with him,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe playing one or two games. God forbid
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: anything happens to Josh Allen. But if anything happens to Alan,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: we know it's gonna be a rough time for this team.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: But Mitch Trubisky and Josh Allen are your two quarterbacks
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: on the Buffalo Bill's initial fifty three man roster. It's
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: common from you folks, Yeah, Andrews saying Mitch did play
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: well Jeff says. Jeff says, some surprise, Josh Allen made
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: the cut and starting over Mitch, that might be the
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: bigger news worthy thing here that they've already kind of
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: put Josh Allen in as QB one. A little interesting,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: little interesting, good comment here saying, yeah, it looks like
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Trubisky starting to embrace being a backup for now. Yeah,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: a little bit the amster saying Trubisky did just enough
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: comes with the experience. I think that's fair. Good comment
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: here from Roy even as well, saying I think Mike
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: White gunslinger attitude can get you in trouble though, fair
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: and especially when you're looking at a backup. Maybe they
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: want somebody to play a little safer. But yeah, kudos
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: to Trubisky for making it and earn another roster spot
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: here with the Buffalo Bills. Let's go to the next
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: position group listed here on the Buffalo Bills website. They've
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: got four listed here for running back. That is because
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: they have included Reggie Gillium as a you know, quote
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: unquote running back, but he's listed as a full back here.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: I don't think any other any more surprises here. Honestly,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: I don't think there's much to talk about here with
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: the running back room, either James Cook, Ray Davis, Ty Johnson,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Reggie Gillium at full back. I will take this opportunity
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: to mention I would like more Reggie Gilliam in this offense.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: I would like more twenty one personnel. I would like
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: to see Reggie Gilliam and Jackson Hawes on the front
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: side of runs, creating displacement and mashing the hell out
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: of defenses. I would like that very much, and I
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: would be very excited if that were to happen. Multiple
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: comments already coming in For Frank Gore. I liked him
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: a lot last preseason. I liked him a lot this preseason.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: He just he's not the sexiest back, but he just
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: seems very efficient and effective almost every time he touches
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: the ball, whether it's with the run, whether it's you know,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: catching it out of the backfield. He's good in pass
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: pro in terms of execution and his scannability and readability.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: I hope he makes it back on the practice squad.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: He is somebody who I think is a practice squad
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: priority guy for me for this team. I also wonder
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: as he made enough noise that he gets claimed by
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: someone else, and does someone else Adam as an RB
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: three somewhere else happened with black Sheear several years ago
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: when he saw real snaps in the regular season for
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers as they suffered some injuries there at
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: that position, and he was a bit of a Bill's
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Mafia favorite that preseason as well. So I'm interested to
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: see what happens with Frank or Junior. I even thought
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Elijah Young played decent in Spurts, I've liked what the
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Bills really have turned out for running backs the past
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: several years. And again, I really really really like Frank
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: or Junior. I think the ceiling is somewhat limited for him.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: And that's why you see, you know, Ray Davis still
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: being there, Ty Johnson being there. This is a really
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: good running back room though, anyway you slice it. Even
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: if you are upset about Frank or Junior, I find
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: this funny. This guy came in to say, this guy
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: talks way too fast. You commented this on my last episode,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: and you came into the live stream to comment this again.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: I appreciate your dedication. Even oh, I find it a
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: bit sad, but kudos to you. Do you and enjoy
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: your life. Yeah, I think it's pretty interesting that Frank
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Gore again another preseason not making the roster. Not the
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: craziest thing in the world. Good player. Tough to crack
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: this running back room. I said it a couple of
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: weeks ago that I like the way he plays, similar
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: verbiage I used earlier here in this episode talking about
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: the efficient and effective play. It's just really hard to
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: crack this running back room. James Cook is a legit
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: RB one at this point. Ray Davis is a I
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: think solid RB two. I actually, out of everybody here,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: I really like Ty Johnson. Good in pass bro good
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: catching the ball, good running the ball. This is a
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: good running back room. Oh, I gotta go back. Shout
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: out to this comment from the Post Show this past Saturday. Yeah,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: I went to the State Fair in Syracuse on Sunday.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Pizza Cone was great. I forget who recommended it. It
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: was tremendous. The food there in general was great. I
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: had only ever been to the Erie County Fair, no
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: shame to that, but the stay Fair as Syracuse was awesome.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: I went with some family friends. It was a great time.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: We had a great time. It was awesome. It was awesome.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Appreciate your right saying, damn shame when somebody talks a
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: little fast, you actually have to pay attention to the
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: laughing Moji. I appreciate you for that. Yeah, I uh oh.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Mike's saying I think if Gore can get back on
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: the practice squad, his chance may come in twenty six.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I think that's fair. I would like to kind of
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: see that potentially, but I don't know. Ty Johnson, I
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: think signed a two year, but you never know. I
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: like him. I hope he gets a shot somewhere. Efficient
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: and effective, not sexy, but he gets the job done.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I appreciate all Ginger saying Aunt talks just right. Mark says,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: listen faster. I like that. Oh, this is good. That
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: guy types too fast. Nice typo, well done. Walter said,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: this guy talks way too well paced. That's very funny.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: That is very funny. But yeah, I think no surprises
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: in the running back room. I like Frank or Junior.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Oh good comment here, saying San Francisco will take Gore
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Junior in a heartbeat. It would have been cool if
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: they had him in the preseason. It could have been
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: you know, baby Gore and babyto on the same roster.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: That would be cool. Yeah, tough running back room to crack.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Ty Johnson's a really good RB three. Ray Davis is
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: a fine RB two. I'm interested to see if Ray
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: Davis can be more this season than he was last year.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: But that's more of a schematic and usage conversation than
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: it is an initial kind of roster reaction fifty three
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: type of deal. But not too many surprises here when
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: it comes to the running back room. Let's move that.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Let's move on to the wide receiver position, a group
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: that multiple people commented on. Actually, you know what I'm
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: gonna do, wide receivers and tight ends together, because why not.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: We'll start with the wide receiver piece. As many of
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: you commented here, thoughts on keeping six wide receivers they've
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: traditionally kept five. What are the thoughts here? I do
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: think it's interesting with the wide receiver group, so as
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: we have it listed here. Khalil Shakir Keon Coleman, Josh Palmer,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Elijah Moore, Curtis Samuel, and Tyrell Shavers. I know for
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: a lot of folks it was, hey, let's get rid
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: of Curtis Samuel. He hasn't performed. He's injured again, there's
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: no reason to keep him on the roster. Bounce him
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: for Tyrrel Shavers. If it comes down to Samuel and
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Shavers get rid of Samuel talked about it had been
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: on the postgame show last week, but I'm gonna mention
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: it here again now. Just the dead cap situation for
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Samuel made I think him leaving the roster a bit tough.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: If they were to release him outright, you get a
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: dead cap hit this year of eight point seven mil,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: a dead cap hit next year of three point four
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: five mil. If you traded him at this point, you
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: get some savings, You save seven point two mil this year,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: and then only incurre a dead cap hit up one
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: point eight this year and the same three point four
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: to five next year. I just don't think there was
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: enough of a financial incentive to remove Curtis Samuel. As
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Dan here says Samuel with a whole bunch of dollar signs. Yeah,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: I don't I never thought it was real, the kind
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: of the idea of cutting Curtis Samuel or releasing him
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: and then trading him. Are you gonna find a partner
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: for him? And I don't know if they were willing
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: just to say, hey, we'll flip them first seventh, or
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: we'll flip them first sixth, or we'll give somebody Samuel
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: and a sixth for a fifth or seventh, or whatever
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: kind of gamesmanship you want to work out there. I
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: didn't see a lot of that as being realistic. And
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: I also think, you know, a sale says Samuel's a
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: money player when healthy, no pun intended. I do think
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: he's effective. I wasn't a huge fan of how much
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: money they gave him when he came in as a
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: free agent. Granted, at that time, I still thought he
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: was gonna play alongside Stefan Diggs because he was signed
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: before Diggs was, you know, moved from this team. But
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: I think he's a fine piece. I think he's a
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: fine addition. I don't love how much money he's being
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: paid for the role that he's going to have. But
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: as last year showed, he was effective down the stretch
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: as he got healthier, and I don't even think he
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: was still completely healthy down the stretch when he played.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: So if he can somehow get healthier, I think he
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: can make more of an impact. He played well against
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Kansas City in Buffalo. He had a couple of nice
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: plays after that, the nice big touchdown against Denver where
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: he really started to show what he could do when
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: he opened it up and was able to move in
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: space a little bit. But again, whether or not he
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: can be healthy or will be healthy is a significant
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: part of this conversation, right. The best of ability is availability.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: He hasn't had great availability last year and even starting
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: this year again in camp and the preseason. So we'll
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: see what comes of it for Curtis Samuel. But huge
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: shout out to Tyrrel Shavers and this kind of seemed
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: like a move where the writing was on the wall
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: a little bit these past couple of weeks. Shavers played
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: well in the preseason. He looked good in his routes
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: and also from like a stem standpoint right, the way
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: he was stemming his route, selling vertical, being able to
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: create separation. And that's on top of having a legitimate
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: nice sizek and frame and athleticism combination. He's got some height,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: he's got some weight, he's got some length, he's got
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: some long speed, and he can open it up a
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: little bit. An amazing one hand to catch this past
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: week against Tampa Bay, especially after he had you know,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: kind of some unsure hands to start that game against
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. He had the drop and then the double
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: catch after that, and then he just a ridiculous one
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: hander for that touchdown. Add into the fact that he
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: does play special teams, it seemed like the writing was
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: on the wall for Shavers kind of making this team.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: The big question I think for a lot of folks
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: was you know you knew Khalil Securre was making it,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: key On Holman was making it, Josh Palmer was making it,
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel. As much as it pained a lot of folks,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I think it made sense that he was going to
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: make it. And the question came to, okay, are they
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: only going to keep five? And if it's five, is
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: it Elijah Moore or is it Tyroll Shavers. We don't
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: have to answer that, we don't have to worry about
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: answering that, and we don't know because again they kept
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: six with Khalis Shakir, Keon Coleman, Josh Palmer, Curtis Samuel,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Elijah Moore, and Tyrell Shavers. I am interested from a
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: depth chart perspective and from a usage perspective, who gets
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: more work between more and Shavers actually in the scope
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: of the offense once everybody's healthy. And I say that
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: because if Khalis Shakir is banged up, say he's ready
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: for week one, but he's not one hundred percent, or
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: maybe somehow he's not ready for week one. I do
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: think that gives Elijah Moore an uptick in snaps because
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: he can function a bit in that Khalis Shakir role.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: I thought a lot of having Elijah Moore on the
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: roster was tied to the value of him being able
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: to play a bit inside and being able to play
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: a bit outside. You can play him in the slot,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: you can play him as a Z, you can line
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: him up in different spots in trips or in bunches
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: or stacks, and you can do several things with him
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: from a route standpoint, from even from a gadget standpoint.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: I know that Bears game was really ugly, but he
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: had a really nice route where he sold an over
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: on play action and quickly sunk his hips, stabbed and
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: dipped underneath the man covering and popped back outside to
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: create separation. I think he's got some good separation capability
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: and can still have a good fit in the offense.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: We'll see what the usage looks like, especially with the
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: guys above him. How healthy is Samuel, How healthy is Palmer.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: He's been banged up, you know, to start this year.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Shakir got the high ankle sprain in the scrimmage. He's
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: supposed to play week one. We'll see. But I like
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: all this right wide receiver room is shaped up. I'm
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: okay with keeping six. I thought they'd keep five, but
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: that was my initial projections back in like, oh, I
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: don't know June July, before the emergence of Tyrol Shavers
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: and then the multitude injuries that happened, So maybe they're
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: hedging their bets a little bit. We'll see. Oh, just
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: the tippy Canoe says, I like the idea of six receivers.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: The idea of corners is nice, but if it means
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: our stronger group is wide receiver, then be it pick
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: the best players. Thank you very much for being here,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: as always, just the typical do and thank you very
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: much for a super chat. I think our comment is fair.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: We're gonna get the corner in a little bit, but
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody that was cut at corner
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: was necessarily worth not keeping one of these wide receivers.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: I think if it comes down to it again, especially
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: thinking of who's at the bottom end of the wide
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: receiver depth chart, would you rather keep Dame Jackson or
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Elijah Moore or Dane Jackson or Tyrrell Shavers. That's really
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: kind of I think what it's coming down to from
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: a depth chart standpoint. Unless you're a huge day Kwon
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Hardy fan, would you rather kept Daikwon Hardy or Tyrrel
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Shavers or Elijah Moore? I would lean wide receiver just
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: because I think those guys are better players, potentially more
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: useful at this standpoint, but I could understand someone move
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: in different direction. Yeah, you followed up with a good comment.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Savers is a better football player than any corner. That
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: would be our sixth best corner. And I think there's
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: some upside to Shavers as well from an experienced standpoint,
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: with an idea that he could get better start to
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: tap into his ceiling a little bit tight ends. I
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: don't really have much. I think this was pretty straightforward
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: from the get go. Dalton Kink, Dawson Knox, Jackson Hawes.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: I really like what Jackson Hawes brings. I like the
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: physicality he had some really nice blocks this preseason. I
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: think he's gonna be a force on the front side
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: in legitimately, people moving defensive ends and edges, mauling linebackers,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: ceiling guys, displacing them. I'm excited. What I think is
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: an interesting note, and again this is a longer term conversation,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: is I'm going to look up Dawson Knox's contract right
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: now because I wonder if you know his dead cap
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: hit this year. Wow, he's got a dead cap hit
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five of twenty one twenty one million dollars.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna look into the trade versus release
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: aspect posting first, because Dawson Knox isn't going anywhere but
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: next off season. If Knox is released pre June first,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: dead cap hit a seven point four savings of nine
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: point six same thing if he's traded. If he's released
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: after June first, next year, it's a dead cap hit
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: a five million twenty twenty six two point three in
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven, and then a twenty twenty six savings
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: of twelve million dollars, same exact scenario. If he's traded.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: I say all that to say I don't think it's
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: completely crazy that if Jackson Hawes is really a viable
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: and successful and significant blocker as a true like inline
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: wide tight end, and if he can do enough as
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: a pass catcher, I don't think it's crazy that they
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: potentially move on from Dawson Knox next offseason. The thing
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: that I think honestly complicates it the most the most
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: is his relationship with Josh Allen, and I don't know
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: if that would rub him the wrong way and what
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: that means from a politicking standpoint or a non on
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: the field standpoint. I didn't love the con track that
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Knox got when he got it. I don't think he's
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: played up to it, even though you know, they've kind
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: of maneuvered some things around a little bit between his
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: availability and just his overall progression and then his usage,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: like he's not quite the I feel like Knox is
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: kind of the caught in between guy right now. I
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: still do think he has athleticism obviously, and he's improved
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: as a blocker each season that he's been with the Bills,
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: but now with Hawes and Kincaid on the roster, I
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: feel like Knox is in this no man's land where
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: he's not the best pass catching tight end option because
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: that's Kincaid, and now he's no longer the best run
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: blocking tight end because that's Hawes. But Knox is the
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: best combination between run blocker and pass catcher because he's
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: a much better pass catcher than Jackson Hawes and he's
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: a actually, I would say, much better blocker than Kincaid.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: But he is definitely a better blocker than Cancave and
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: has made a lot of strides there. So it's this
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: weird group for next year. This year, I think it's fine.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: I'm excited to see what Hawes can do being incorporated
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: into this offense this year, but again, not too many
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: surprises with that tight end position. I'm going to go
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: to the comments here. Bob Sheet says, I hope Tyrol
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Shavers gets an opportunity to show what he has in
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: a real game. I think that'll be fun. This is
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: funny from John saying, can you start from the beginning again?
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: My close captions are going too fast? I like that, oh,
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Roy nice, says. Roy says, considering what they paid Knox
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: in his role, the Samuel contract isn't terrible. And then
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: with the you know, I roll emoji. Yeah, I both
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: are not great, but I'm picking up what you're putting down.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: This is a great comment here. It's important to remember
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: our knowledge of injuries and what plans are for players
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: is extremely surface level. There's a lot we don't know. Yes,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: That's why I made sure to title this episode the
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: initial fifty three man roster. There could be some gamesmanship happening.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: We have guys that could make the roster that could
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: be you know, designated in certain ways advantageous to the roster.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: So there are some things, yes, that we don't know.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Very fair point. M hmmm. What else? Ooh? Exile Cultivation
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: wants to trade one of the wide receivers. Later, Royce
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: says with more could we see a few more jet sweeps?
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: I think you could potentially. You also could see that
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: with Curtis Samuel as well. We just have to see
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: who's healthy. Ooh. James says, well, Zach Davidson get claimed.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. There's a chance. I don't think so.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: I think he's more of a of a practice squad
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: kind of dude. Uh Menta saying my concern is safety. Still,
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: I don't get why we didn't grab an available, bet
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: like Justin Simmons, to be at least in the room.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: We can't bet that our d line can pressure enough
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: to make up for that gap. We will talk about
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: safety as we go forward. Ooh, Timbo a bit of
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say a bit of a of a hot
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: take or a spicy take. He says Hawes is going
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: to end up being a better pass catcher than Knox.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll see. I do think Hawes more effective
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: in as a pass catcher in the zero to ten
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: yard range. Not the knocks, but then he gets credit for.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: I think he has some not you know, burst explosion,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: but because he's a powerful guy, I think he has
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: some explosions zero to ten yards. I think he can
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: be effective as a pass catcher in that range. And
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: that's more than fine considering how good of a blocker
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: he is. We'll see. Fair comment here. Knox is a
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: reliable piece. He blocks his butt off and is good
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: for half a dozen clutch catches per season. Fair but
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: if you're playing Devil's advocate, he's also good for like
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: feel what feels like half a dozen like non clutch
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: drops and inconsistent inconsistency. I like him I don't like
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: what he gets paid, and I just think it's a
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: he's caught again in that no man's lamb. But we'll see.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Oh Matt says, where does Hawes rank as a blocking
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: tight end league wide? I have to see him against
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: the ones. I have to see him as like an
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: actual player in the regular season, not against you know,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: the twos and the threes like he has this preseason.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: But I will say his people moving ability against actual
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: defensive ends, guys that are like three hundred pounds, he
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: can get under them and through them and take him
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: out the club. That isn't tremendously common. So there's a
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: there's a chance he could be already as a rookie
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: towards the top in effectiveness. But if we're comparing you know,
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: blocking tight ends, are we just comparing him to pure
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: blocking tight ends or to all tight ends who are
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: kind of starters? But regardless, I need to see him
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: against ones and then the starting the starting option or
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: the starting option the starting roster, I should say, regular
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: season action kind of see what we get from there.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Let's go to the next position group here, the AWE
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: offensive line. Someone noted it earlier the activation of Cedric
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: van Prayan, Granger, So no ir or you know, pup
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: or anything for him right now. He can start getting
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: after it as soon as he's able to. In the
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: offensive line, we have nine right now, Dion Dawkins, David Edwards,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Connor McGovern o, Cyrus Torrence, Spencer Brown. You're starting five
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: and then your reserves Alec Anderson, Cedric van Prand Granger,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Chase Lunt, Ryan Vandamark. Now what I do wonder and
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: this is something we'll get into later. With the injuries,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: Tyland Grabil being banged up, I am interested to see.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: I'm actually gonna, you know, scroll fast really quick and
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: show you that Tyland Grabil is there on the injured
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: reserve piece, which we are going to talk about in
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: a little bit here on this episode. Once Grable is healthy,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: they will have to make room on the fifty three.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: My thought is the way they make room is probably
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: with Chase Lunt being moved in some capacity in order
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: to activate Grabel. I didn't think Lunt had a great preseason,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: but they just picked him up. He's a rookie, He's
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: got some positional flex. Vander Mark also struggled a bit
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: this preseason, but I think his spot is more secure
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: than Lunt is. So if we're looking at this group
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: right now now, I really do think the top seven
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: are more than set and more than safe. With Dawkins, Edwards, McGovern,
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: Torrance Brown, Alec Anderson, and SVPG. I think that's set.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: And then it comes down to when Grabil comes back,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: who gets bounced. It's probably Lunt, and then who outranks
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: who between Grabil and vander Bark. But overall, I don't
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: think crazy amount of shock or anything for the offensive line.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing, again, as someone noted earlier
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: in the chat, was that Cedric Vampere and Granger after
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: missing a bunch of camp and the entire preseason, the
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: fact that he was activated and made the fifty three
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: and not have to be put on the pup or
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: put on the short term IR or anything like that. Oh,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: come in here from John Robert. This is a good one,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: saying well Jackson Hawes take time away from Alec Anderson.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Oh good question. The Bills led the league in you know,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: jumbo sets and six offensive linemen on the field at
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: one time last year with Alec Anderson and kind of
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: how they weaponized that personnel grouping. They had a really
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: effective pass game and run game out of that personnel grouping,
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: and they were strong on tape and within their advanced metrics.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: I hope not, I can under I think he'll eat
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: into it a little bit, But I don't think, you know,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: the Alec Anderson reps and the jumbo looks and the
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: six offensive line and stuff is going to go away completely.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: What I do want to see is kind of leaning
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: into it harder in terms of putting Alec Anderson and
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: Jackson Hawes on the field at the same time. And
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: then if we go Alec Anderson, Jackson Hawes and Reggie Gilliam,
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: I just don't know how you come back that on
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: the front side. With how defenses are built nowadays, you're
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: gonna really need to go heavy, heavy to combat a
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: front side of Jackson Hawes, Alec Anderson and Reggie Gilliam,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: And then Gilliam and Hawes are still athletic enough that
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: you can go play action and release him into the
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: flat or into the underneath or maybe even the low
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: intermediate and really catch teams. If you pair that with
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: a Josh Allen bootleg, how you're getting him on the
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: move move in the pocket, maybe you create an explosive
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: opportunity downfield depending on who the solo receiver is. I
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: don't think Alec Anderson's role is going anywhere. I think
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: Hawes will eat into it a little bit, but I
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: hope they kind of lean more into a heavy piece
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: again just with I like the comments from Timbo and
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Matt and the chat right now. Yeah, I just given
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: the condensed nature of their offense, reducing the formational with
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: and how important the run game is. So much of
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: football now is matchups, you know, and you trying to
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: dictate the matchup to the other side of the ball,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: defense versus offense, offense versus defense, And if you can
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: put a defense in hell purely by personnel, do it.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: And I really think the Bills can. It's part of
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: what made the Bills successful last year. They're wide receivers
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: being big but also athletic and being able to function
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: as pass catchers and blockers. It put defenses into a
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: bund and I think you could do that again with
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: having like Hawes, Anderson and Gillingham in together, because how
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: do you answer that as a defense. So many defenses
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: are nickel defenses now with a true nickel. So in
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: order to combat that, you either need another linebacker or
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: a big nickel third safety. You might even need to
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: go like heavier than that. Like you, you really have
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: to have the right type of guys. You need an
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: edge that can set the run. You can't have too
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: much of a pass rush focused edge. If it's an
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: edge one or an edge two, are you flipping the side?
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: You know that your edge one is on it. If
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: he's more rush focused, to kind of put him on
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: the back side than the front side. You can put
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: a defense in some schematic hell and make them have
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: to answer questions by getting crazy with how heavy and
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: physical you go on the front side. So I'm excited
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: for that. That's a good question. I appreciate folks being
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: excited for that. And no, this is a good comment
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: here too, right saying I love that idea would give
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: key on one on one matchups in space. That's a
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: fun thing too, Right. So if that's all your heavy
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: piece attached to the formation, you're gonna have a solo
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: pass catcher out essentially one on one. That could be
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: Josh Palmer, who excels in beating man coverage and winning
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: one on one, especially underneath. In the intermediate, it could
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: be Keyan Coleman, it could be Dalton Kincaid, and maybe
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: he's up against the corner who he has an advantage
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: of because he's got he's longer, and he's bigger, and
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: he's still athletic and is still a good route runner.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: There's a whole bunch of questions you can force a
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: defense to answer with that, you know, type of heavier
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: personnel package and look, especially situationally, and especially because defenses
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: are gonna have to walk dudes into the box because
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: they're gonna have to onto the run out of that look,
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: the Bills could just line up in that and run
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: duo and blow defenses off the ball. Mix in some
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: weak side mid zone that they like to do, and
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: attack the weak side away from the strength. There's just
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: so much they can do with that, and yet potentially
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: open up some things for that solo wide receiver, whether
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: it's Keon or someone else. And again tying into the
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: explosive beach, you go play action. Let Palmer maybe beat
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: somebody in a double move, hit him downfield. A lot
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: of options, a lot of options. I'm excited for that.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Steve said, if you sit and just focus on Hawes
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: in the preseason games. The dude can block. I was
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: having some Lee Smith visions. Oh I spent. I put
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: out a bunch of clips purely a pause this per
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: preseason just with him people moving the hell out of
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: dudes front side. It was a nice piece. Yeah, but
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: good offensive line grouping, really strong starting five. Biggest thing
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: to watch is Spencer Brown's health. Everyone's health. This offensive
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: line has played a lot of games together as a
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: starting unit the past two years. Spencer Brown got hurt
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: this past offseason, missed some times, missed some time. It
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: seems like he knows what you know, caused the injury
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: in terms of how he was working out, how much
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: he was pushing himself. Sounds like he's in a good
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: place now. But that offensive line is a real quality
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: group as in terms of past protection and run blocking.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: They need to stay healthy. And then again, I do
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: think they have a solid, real solid top six. Alec
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: Anderson gives you some positional flex on the interior even
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: playing tackle as well. And then I like Cedric van
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: Prin Granger hadn't seen a ton of reg NFL season snaps,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: so we'll see what he can be. But overall solid group.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: And then I think once Grabil comes back, Lunt goes
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: vand of Mark stays and we'll still sit there with nine.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: But a good group and not too many surprises. All right,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: let's move on to the defensive line. I am grouping
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: the defensive line as one group, so we're gonna talk
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: about the edges and the defensive tackles. I don't think
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: too many surprises when it comes to the edges slash
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: defensive ends. Greg Russo, Joey Bosa, aj Apanessa Javon, Solomon,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Landon Jackson. I don't think anything too crazy. I don't
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: think this is nuts. I think what'll be interesting And
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: the biggest question is once Michael Hoyt comes back from suspension. Oh,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: I gotta stop because he got a super chat morning.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Mine says, Oh, thank you very much for being here.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: I think if it's a super chat, she says, thanks Aunt.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Still love the tree, Thanks Al. Yeah, because I'm a
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: little smaller because I got the screen up here, you
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: can only see it a little bit, but yep, still
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: rocking the Christmas tree as always. I appreciate you recognize that.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Yeah, Argie says, some surprise they
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: kept the whole off and show RVD. Nice reference. Nice
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: reference there. I'm always a fan of a wrestling reference
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: be woven in there. Yeah. The only real question for
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: me with defensive end or the edge grouping is once
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: Michael Hoyt comes back, who goes? Who goes to make
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: space for Michael Hoyt entering the fifty three? Is it
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: a defensive end, is it one of the wide receivers?
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Is it some other position like where do you make space?
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: And then if it is from the edge grouping, I
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: still do think despite the fact that they both made
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: the fifty three here, I really do feel like Javon
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: Solomon and Land and Jackson are fighting for reps here,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: and if someone has to get dropped, I'm assuming it
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: would be Solomon because he's more likely to still get
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: back to your practice squad than Jackson. I think if
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: you cut Jackson in any way, shape or form, it's
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: gonna be tough to get him back on the practice squad,
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: just because he's a rookie and he's got some traits
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: that teams like. But Jackson would really have to fall
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: off a cliff I think for him to get dropped
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: when Hoyt comes back, and or Solomon would just have
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: to be this pass rushing Maven who's just got tons
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: of production and effectiveness those first six weeks. Or it
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: could be neither of those things. And they want to
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: keep six defensive ends and they're going to cut someone
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: from another position group. But no surprises I think right now. Initially,
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: especially with Hoyt being suspended. I think if Hoyt wasn't suspended,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: this could have been, you know, maybe a little spicy
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: group depending on who got dropped defensive tackle similar conversation
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: because we have a suspension. But if you see here
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: on the screen, they kept five Ed Oliver, Daikwon Jones, TJ. Sanders,
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: Dion Walker, Dwayne Carter. I don't think there are any
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: surprises there. The only question is would they still have
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: kept five had Larry Ogunjobi Ben healthy. Looks like they
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: probably would have. I would assume Dwayne Carter would have
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: been bounced and would have been the outside man looking in.
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: I think Carter is fine considering he's really defensive tackle six.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: And if you wanted to keep five because Owen Joby's out,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: he's defensive tackle five. What I don't like with this group,
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: And again time will just really tell. You've got Ed Oliver,
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: you've got Daikwon Jones, You've got t J. Sanders, You've
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: got Dion Walker, you've got Dwayne Carter. You only have
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: one true one tech here, and that is Daikwon Jones.
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Even when Ogun Jobi's back from suspension, he's also a three.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: So the only true one tech you have is Daikwon Jones.
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: That means other guys are gonna have the moonlight in
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: that role. T J. Sanders will probably see a lot
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: of time at three, but he'll see someone at some point.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: Dion Walker's gonna see a bunch of time at one,
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: also some three. But Walker's not even though he's huge
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: in a mountain of a man, he's not a true one.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: He is more of a three even like a four
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: ie and a five. He's just a penetrator and an
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: agile big man who looks to penetrate and slash. And
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: then Dwayne Carter just has been really ineffective at almost
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: anything and everything he's done. Three tech one tech, playing
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: the run, playing the just a lot of ineffectiveness across
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: the board for Carter. I think this one's pretty easy.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: When Ogun joeby comes back, Ogun Joby comes back, Carter
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: drops with a practice squad, or is just released. We'll
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: kind of see what happens if anybody claims him. But
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: he is entering year two. I think there's a chance
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: somebody might take a flyer on him. If he had
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: a team. We had a really high grade on him
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: last year as a rookie. Maybe they think they can
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: be the ones to tap into him, which also could
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: happen if you commit him more to three tech and
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: have him shed some weight and play more towards his
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: duke frame and weight than what he's been playing at
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: in Buffalo, where they've asked him to have the ability
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: to handle one tech end three tech responsibilities. In order
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: to do that, he's had to put on some more weight.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I think there's a chance somebody could tap into him
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: and make him, you know, a solid rotational four, maybe
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: even a three is a high end. But I think
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: the floor is man and I think the ceiling is
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: low for him, So we'll see what happens. I don't
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: think Dean Walker's getting dropped unless he gets hurt and
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: they have to move him to the pup or the
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: injury list, like he flashed really positively this priest season.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: I really like the way he came into camp and
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: kind of repurposed his body weight trim down. He looked
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: like he was moving healthier. I think the only thing
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: that compromises things for Walker this year is his health.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna see a ton of snaps.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: I do think there's even a chance where Carter out
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: snaps him to start the year. Maybe, but I think
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: Walker when everybody's good, when it's ed Dai Kwon, Sanders, Ogan, Jobi,
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: and Walker, I do think you'll see Walker maybe around
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: like fifteen snaps a game ballpark, but he's going one
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: hundred miles an hour for one hundred percent each of
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: those snaps. You're using him to just purely take advantage of.
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: He's fresh and he's a monster. Go inside and go
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: be Godzilla or King Kong on this third and seven
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: or on this third and eight, or hey, we're up
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: by you know, seventeen in the fourth quarter and they
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: got to pass a ton. We're putting you in on
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: this series because you're fresh and you can just wreck shop,
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: and we think they're going to have to pass the
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: ball a ton. He's also been good on gap scheme
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: recognition against the un which has been really nice to see.
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: But I do think run defense is still a work
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: in progress for Dean Walker. I think he needs to
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: consistently use his hands and play to his length to
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: keep guys from getting into his chest, which he did
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: much better against Tampa Bay than he did the week
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: before against Chicago. Needs to work on not getting washed down.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: Leverage is always going to be a thing. We got
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: to keep an eye on, right him getting blown off
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: the ball vertically or horizontally getting washed down or you know,
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: moved and displaced, things like that. But really positive preseason
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: for Dion Walker, and I think he's locked into a
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: roster spot. I don't think he's here because Ogan Joby
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: is suspended. I think he's clearly in, you know, the
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: top five for this defensive tackle grouping, and once Ogan
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: Jobey comes back, Carter probably goes. But we'll see, we
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: will see. We will see our Jscer comment there. We
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: will be getting in the corner a little bit when
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: we talk about trade. This is good, Lawrence fantastic. Lawren
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: says there's four hundred and forty people watching it, only
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: sixty something likes on YouTube, don't do Anthony dirty like that.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Everybody be like Lauren, I appreciate you very much for that, Lauren,
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: thank you. And Ay. I know it may seem corny,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: but like I always say, because it's true, likes are
• 45:08

• 45:29
  Speaker 1: think you drop alike if you folks are enjoying this content.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Andrew says he is still underwhelming a three tech. Are
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: you talking about Carter? Are you talking about Walker? If
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: you're talking about Carter, yes, he's underwhelming either way and
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: ineffective Carter. I'm assuming you're talking about Carter, but I'll
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: wait for your answer. Arjie says, if you can't teach
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: a six seven, three hundred and forty pound monster how
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: to be a one tech then your d line coach
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: sucks fair, But also part of it is the body
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: type in the composition. It's hard, Okay, Andrew says Carter,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: That's what I figured. I'm not on the same page.
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: It's hard to teach a guy that big to play
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: that role like it. You might think, oh, he's a monster,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: so he should play a monster type or role, But
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: because of how he's built, I think it's harder for
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: him to anchor. It's harder for him to have leverage.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: And being able to anchor and have leverage are two
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: really key cogs and important parts of being able to
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: play one tech. You got to be able to withstand
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: double teams. You got to be able to either anchor
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: and play with leverage, or you got to be able
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: to drop the knee, be able to have that lower
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: body flexibility, that torque in your upper body to kind
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: of reduce your surface area and play off of it.
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: And that's aside from having the block recognition, the hand usage,
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: all of that. Right, I do think it is a
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: work in progress, and you can be coached up for
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: some of it. But for as much as his size
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: might make you think he should be coached into a
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: one tech role, or should be able to. I think
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: you could also play Devil's advocate and make the case
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: for the other side that his size also might be
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: a detriment to him playing one tech because he can't
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: anchor or not anchor, not that he can't, because it's
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: harder for him too. But I'm excited to see what
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: he does. And you know, again, I was pleasantly surprised
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: with his preseason play. I will say that Royce said
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: Carter was drafted to be a penetrating three tech Oliver's backup.
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: Now they're trying to make him a one tech. How
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: much of his underwhelming play is actually his fault. I
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: think that's a very fair comment. I've said it on
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: the show, like I think they tried to take a
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: bit of a round peg and put it in a
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: square hole, and as a result, he got caught in
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: no man's land. I always thought the run defense piece
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: would be a struggle for him. You know, double teams
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: were a struggle for him at Duke, and he would
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: gt blown off the ball from time to time. But
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: I thought his calling card would be, you know, would
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: be him being a rotational three penetrating and rushing the QB,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: and then they added he had him add some more weight,
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: and then he's also playing one tech. I just don't think.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: I don't think the way they used him played to
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: his traits and his skill set necessarily. So some of
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: it is on him, but I do think some of
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: it is on the staff for kind of what they
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: asked him to do or what they wanted him to do.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: Same thing for Austin Johnson last year. Austin Johnson was
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: a big plugger and a rotational one at his previous stops.
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: They had him shed some weight to kind of moonlight
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: as a one and a three, so it was like
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: they kind of put him and Carter into no man's
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: land a little bit. Oh good comment question in common
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: here Chris says, what is the difference between a one
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: tech and a three tech? For those of us that
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: don't know, I'm sure are not the only one. So
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: one tech in three tech refers to where they are aligned.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: So a one tech is aligned on the shoulder of
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: the center. Sometimes you'll hear people refer to it as
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: a shade. So if you're lyned head up on the center,
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: that's a zero technique. If you're lined up on the shoulder,
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: that's a one technique, and then a three technique is
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: also referred to an alignment. So if we keep going
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: down the line, head up on the center as a zero.
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: Outside shoulder of the center is a one inside shoulder
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: of the guard. If we keep going down the line
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: is a two to I, head up on the guard
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: is a two. Outside shoulder of the guard is a three.
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: So different alignments and then also different usages. Usually, if
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: you are a one tech, you're more of a Daekwon
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: Jones type of player, so you're handling the inside more.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: On the run, you are more of an anchor presence,
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: kind of a run fitter and a plugger to a degree,
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: although in the Bills defense you still need to get upfield.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: Three tech you are obviously further outside from the ball.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: You're usually aligned to kind of the open side of
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: that formation, being able to get upfield attack the quarterback penetrate.
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: There's a different level of responsibilities, but it all starts
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: with that initial alignment and where you are. And again,
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: if you really want to kind of put it into
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: perspective of what does a one tech look like or
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: what does a three tech look like a one tech
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: is Daikwon Jones, A three TI tech is at Oliver.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: So think of how both those guys play and what
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: you see them doing. That's what a one tech is,
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: That's what a three tech is. Good question. I like
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: questions like that because it makes me. It reminds me
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: that not everybody's a regular watcher or listener or the show.
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: So if anybody ever has a question like that, if
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about an alignment or a technique, or a
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: coverage or a concept anything, always feel free to ask
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: those questions. Really appreciate you asking that, Chris, Thank you
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: very much. Steve says, when Hoyt comes back, could Shack
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: Thompson be the guy that gets cut if our linebackers
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: are healthy? Oh, potentially because they did keep five. We'll
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: talk about it. Actually, let's let's move on to the
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: linebackers there. We're gonna combine it all into one group,
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: not all in one group, but this next group, and
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do linebackers DB's and we're gonna do safeties.
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: We'll start with the linebackers there. Yeah, five linebackers for
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: the Bills. Torel Bernard, Matt Mlano, Dorian Williams, Joe Andreeson.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: I don't think any of those are a surprise. You
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: got your starters, and Bernard and Milano, Dorrian Williams' linebacker three.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: If they're gonna go three linebackers on the field, if
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: they're gonna take out Taron Johnson and replace them with
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: a linebacker, it's Dorian Williams. I think I might just
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: said Dorian STROMP. Great now I'm gonna do. I'm gonna
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: do the Dorian name thing the way I do the
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: Jackson and Spencer Hawes thing. Fantastic. So Bernard, Mulano, Dorian
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: Andresen top four I thought was pretty set. Andresen gives
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: you special teams value, Dorrian gives you special teams value,
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: and Dorian is the clear linebacker three here. Linebacker five
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: I thought was kind of a toss up. I thought
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Charlow had an actual chance to make the roster
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: because of his special teams value, and the Bills have
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: talked about keeping guys just for special teams value, and
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: Charloe made some plays on defense as well. Specter obviously
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: got cut earlier on so I thought linebacker five was
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: a bit of a toss up. If they were gonna
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: keep the fifth linebacker. The biggest toss up piece for
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: me was if Shaq Thompson was healthy or not, and
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: if he could make the fifty three. He had some
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: nice plays in camp. He knows this defense. He's a
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: veteran presence. I don't think he has any legs left,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: and he already kind of got banged up this camp.
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: But he is linebacker five for the moment. Now. Laurence says,
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: did I catch you singing the burger king Bottom? I might.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: I might have just been like, I don't know if
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: that was that officially, that's fair. I might have done
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: it subconsciously the way I call Jackson haw Spencer, that's fair.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: I want to go back to that comment. Where are we?
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: I went too far in the comments? Sorry? Well whoever
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: asked if would they drop Shaq Thompson once Hoyt comes back.
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: It depends on what they want to do with Shaq Thompson.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: What's interesting with Shaq Thompson is obviously he's the fifth linebacker.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: Usually their fifth linebacker gets a lot of special teams work.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know how much special teams work he's gonna get,
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: and if he does, I would think it's probably on
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: punt coverage. Granted, the kick return game is a different
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: a bit of a different mixture now with the new rules,
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: so he could see some kickoff coverage stuff or some
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: kick return stuff. But I don't see him being a
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: huge factor on special teams. But I would assume he's
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: going to be because they're keeping him as that fifth linebacker.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: But it'll really determine, or really be determined by what
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: they use Shaq Thompson as and what he looks like.
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: I think it's a possibility that maybe they cut him,
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: and that's, you know, to make room if if all
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: five defensive ends are cruising right Rousseau and Bosa and
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: Epanessa and Solomon and Jackson, and then you're bringing hoy
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: back and you're like, we don't want to drop one
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: of the edges. Where can we cut? Shaq Thompson might
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: be somebody that gets moved to make room for Hoyt
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: or maybe make room for ogun job if there isn't
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: a like for like kind of application available there. But
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: kudos to Shack Thompson making this team again. You know,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: McDermott loves him. He's got familiarity with the staff, he's
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: got a and the system. He's got a tremendous head
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: on his shoulders. He was the game. He's probably a
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: wealth of knowledge for that linebacker room, especially for somebody
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: like Terrell Bernard, who is super smart, super cerebral, super heady,
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: was very pro ready coming out of Baylor, coming from
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: David Randa's defense there and then fitting into this defense.
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: I think Shack Thompson could be a real, real nice
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: piece to the development of Terrell Bernard, and even just
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: keeping him on the roster for that so he can
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: be in the room to increase that dude's knowledge. That
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: could be fun. But yeah, I don't think too many
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: crazy surprises with linebacker. Really came down to who is
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: the fifth dude that they were going to keep, and
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: it ended up being Shack Thompson. I just didn't know
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: how healthy he was going to be. He was gonna be,
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: he was going to be. See a lot of questions
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: still coming through on defense tackles, I'll answer them now
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: now here. Andrew says, understand that Walker probably won't be
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: three tech on early rushdowns, but do you think they
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: would put him in on third and lungs there? Yeah?
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: I think they'll use him a bunch. I think you're
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: not even just him. I think you're gonna get a
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: lot of different looks for the defensive line on known
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: rushdowns or on known you know, passing down in distance
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: or situations. I think you could see Bosa kicked inside.
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: I think you could see TJ. Sanders in a wide
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: alignment like in a four eye or head up on
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: a tackle, and then Greg Russau or Bosa outside of him.
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: I think you could see Walker head up on a
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: center all the way to kind of being at a
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: five like on the outside shoulder of a tackle. I
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: think there's a lot of potential to do a lot
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: of mixing and matching with the body types that they
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: have once you get into known passing situations again, whether
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: it's down in distance or situationally in the game. I
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: think that that's a potential for Walker, but potential for
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: potential for a lot of guys on this defensive line,
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: which is fun and a very cool and encouraging thing.
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: And yeah, again, as far as Dion Walker, he's huge.
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's a run first guy. He's a
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: pass rush first kind of guy, which makes sense because
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: that's what the bills like on the interior. But if
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: he can keep reading gap schemes and keep understanding that, oh,
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: the center just moved away from me. Here comes the
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: down block. Let me beat that guy. Let me gum
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: up another down block creates some freedom. There is something
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: to be said for, you know, not defending the run
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: with displacement, but defending it with penetration and chaos creation.
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: And Walker could be a step in that direction. So
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: nothing crazy for the linebackers. Again, kudos to Shack could
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: come in here saying, you know, Bernard and Milonald's injury
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: history makes extra vet linebacker depth a good idea. I
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: think that's fair. It's just a matter of how much
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: real depth is Shaq Thompson and how much he can move.
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: He didn't seem like he had anything really left in
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: his legs last year in Carolina. He's been hurt so much.
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: But we'll see defensive backs talked about it a bit.
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: So we've got seven dbs essentially cornerbacks here, Christian benfer
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: Tredevius White, Dorian Strong, JaMarcus Ingram, Tarren Johnson, and cam
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: Lewis Brandon Codrington. Now Codrington should have an asterisk because
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: I do not think he's a real defensive back in
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: any jape or form. He is return specialist only, which
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: means we really only have Benford, Trey Strong, Ingram, Tarren
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: and Cam Lewis. He essentially got six DB's now. It's
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: nice and I talked about this earlier today. If Trey
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: White is hurt and unable to go in Week one,
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: which him not having an injury designation, I think is
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: good news that he might be trending in the right
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: direction to play in week one. Max Harriston was already
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: put on the injured list. We're going to talk about
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: that in a little bit, But if Trey is out
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: for Week one, I know a lot of folks are
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: high on Dorian Strong. I want Tramarcus Ingram starting at
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: CB two, especially against Baltimore. What he offers as a
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: run defender and as a run fitter inside outside versatility,
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: the physicality and the nastiness he plays with, and while
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: not being the strongest cover guy, I still do think
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: he's a better coverage guy than he gets credit for.
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: I would like JaMarcus Ingram to start at CB two
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: in Week one if Trey White is unable to go. Overall,
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: I like this room. You've got a true CB one
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: in Christian Benford. We'll see what Trey White looks like
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: from a health standpoint, and overall we'll see what this
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: group looks like when Harston comes back and then Dorian Strong.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: I was been underwhelmed by Strong this preseason, largely from
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: a run defense standpoint. Just not good in his run fits,
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: not good at you know the crack replaces or stepping
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: up and being a forced player against duo. So a
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: bit unfortunate there. But you know, I understand his pedigree
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: and his scheme fit, so him making the roster isn't
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: crazy again. I like JaMarcus Ingram inside outside versatility. I
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: think this is where you know and why I have
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: everything listed together. You start to get some positional value
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: in flex. JaMarcus Ingram can play inside in the slot.
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: He can also play outside as a corner. Cam Lewis
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: is your backup nickel number one. I also think he
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: might be safety three. I know he's not listed here
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: as a safety. I think Cam Lewis is Safety three
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: and DeMar Hamlin is Safety four. I think we'll see
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: we've also got Jordan Hancock, who can play a little
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: nickel but it looks like they're converting him and kind
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: of not compromising him, committing him to more of a
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: true safety role. So an interesting mix, I think in
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: the overall defensive back room between corner and safety. But again,
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: if we're talking about true corners, it's Benford, Trey Strong,
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: JaMarcus Ingram, Like if you're talking at outside corners only,
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: it is those four guys. And when Harston comes back,
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: we'll see what that means for Strong, We'll see what
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: that means for Ingram, We'll see what kind of the
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: maneuverability happens there. And then again, cam Lewis is your
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: backup Nickel, and I think safety three, maybe safety four.
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: I know they love DeMar Hamlin. Cam Lewis has played
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: better than DeMar Hamlin. We'll see. I guess I'll use
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: that as a way to transition to safety. I don't
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: think too many surprises here. They want and Bishop to
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: be the guys. I think it makes sense for them
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: to be the guys. Hamlin has Hamlin, Oh yeah, Hamlin.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say handler, that's kJ Hamler. He got cut.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: Hamlin has not looked good this preseason against it as
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: a tackler and coverage. Just a lot of not good
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: stuff coming from DeMar Hamlin. But they like him, and
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: he's responsible and he's reliable at the safety position, so
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: we'll see. I know a lot of folks don't feel
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: great about Hamlin and have soured on him and are
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: frustrated with the safety position. I have waxed far too
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: poetically on this safety group throughout the offseason and my
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: concerns on the fit between Bishop and Rap and my
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: trepidation about bishops fit in this defense and where I
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: thought he would fit better. So I don't want to
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: go on again about something I've talked about too much
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: at that spot. But I'm hopeful for safety, but I'm
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: concerned about it. I'm concerned. I think Hamlin is a
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: fine depth safety and a safety three or a safety four,
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: a guy who can fit in and be a band aid.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: I would like to see Cam Lewis as safety three
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: ahead of Hamlin on the depth chart. I like Jordan
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: Hancock a lot. I don't think he's ready to see
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: real NFL reps. He is still processing the game inefficiently
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: at this point in terms of reading run to pass,
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: understanding where he has to be. I like his athleticism.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: I like his physicality. He just needs more time on task.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's a bad thing. He's a rookie.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: I think there's a chance Jordan Hancock could be a
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: safety of the future and it could be him and
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: Cole Bishop next year starting potentially. I think that's a
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: fun thing. I think it's cool that Hancock made the
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: fifty three this year. He's probably gonna see some good
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: teams work. He'll be able to learn in that room
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: from Taylor Rap every week and even from Hamlin a
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: little bit. But Rap is really smart, stands this defense.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: I think this will be a good learning year or
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: a red shirt ear for Jordan Hancock, and we might see,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: you know, some potential for him next year. But the
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: starters are gonna be Rap and are gonna be Bishop
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: and ooh, spicy take from Lauren, and Lauren says, I'm
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: putting money on Poyer being on our team at some
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: point this season, based solely on Bean's affinity for signing
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: previous players. You know what, I don't think that's the
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: craziest idea. I think there's a non zero chance, But
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: in all like a sincere one, I don't think that's
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: completely crazy. I don't think he has a lot left
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: in the tank, but I don't think that's crazy. Given
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: Bean's affinity for signing previous players, I don't think that's crazy.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: Fair point. Yeah, and this is a fair comment from
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: Austin about Hamlin. Seems like Hamlin doesn't make big mistakes,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: but he's such a low ceiling player. That's exactly it.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: He's a high floor, low ceiling, not a lot of athleticism,
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: doesn't play with a lot of anticipation and coverage. Isn't
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: really clicking and closing on the ball in space. He's
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: not making plays on the ball. He's more of a
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: down safety. You can blitz him, he'll play the run.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: He's normally a sure tackler. But that athletics is a
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: man that it limits him. You know, he doesn't have
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: a lot of foot speed, doesn't have a lot of
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: juice burst long speed. You put a move on him
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: and get him to stop his feet and he's in trouble.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: But again fine for a depth guy. He's responsible and
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: reliable in a lot of respects, which again, you're not
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: gonna have four studs at one position with two backups
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: who are studs. And two starters that are studs. I
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: think he's good enough to get the job done as
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: a depth safety and as a band aid, but I
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: would prefer him not to start. If Bishop or rap
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: go down. I want Cam Lewis as Safety three. I
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: want him as the next man up. We'll see if
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: that comes to fruition or if safety three really is
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: DeMar Hamlin. Again, the depth chart is going to be
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: wonky because Cam is the backup Nickel. So even if
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: they list Cam as a safety, you know he's still
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: going to be the backup Nickel. And if they list
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: him as the backup Nickel, I hope he's still Safety three.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: But a good group, you've got some versatility. We'll see
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: what happens when Harriston comes back from injury, who gets bounced,
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: if anyone, or do they cut a rob from another
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: group here? But very interesting. Mark says, I would prefer
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: Poyer over Hamlet as a depth option. I I didn't
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: watch enough of Poyer last year to make a hard
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: comment on this. I didn't watch a lot of Dolphins
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: defense tape. One of the few teams who had a
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: unit that I didn't really watch a ton other than
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: scouting them. For the Bills games. But that's fair. But
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: also I don't know, Carl says ant, what are your
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: thoughts on whether the d line will be able to
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: consistently get into the backfield to harass the QB and
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: to take the pressure off the corners in safeties. I
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: feel good to a degree. I think the proof needs
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: to be in the pudding and we need to see.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: We need to see what happens come regular season time.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: But I think they upgraded the pass rush aspect of
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: the defensive line. My bigger concern is being able to
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: stop the run and fit the run from the interior.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: I'm worried about the interior defensive line and the spine
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: by extension of holding up against the run and not
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: getting blown off the ball or displaced. But Sanders has
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: been really encouraging. Walker's been really encouraging. That's just automatically
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: better on the interior what they had last year. I
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: think Bosa is going to be more effective than von
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: I know Von Miller's advanced metrics and stats looked really good.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: His pass rush productivity, I think it was I think
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: when you watch the tape it wasn't necessarily the case,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: but I think Bosa can give you more than von did.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with Jackson and Solomon. I'm hopeful.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: I do think there are still questions about the pass
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: rush capability for the defensive line as a whole, and
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: I'm not completely confident and satisfied at this point, but
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: I'm hopeful, especially from the interior. Argie says, if Cole
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: Bishop is somehow not a bust, that's decent safety depth.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: Hamlin should still have had five turnos last year, including
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: the playoffs. Three taken away from a fish, that's a
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: solid safety three. Yeah, well that's pretty rational. Take from you,
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: r jam surprized. Look at you. I feel like you're
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: growing up so fast. Yeah, Hamlin, I think is a
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: fine safety three. Again, I don't mean this disrespectfully. I
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: think he's a fine band aid and he's a fine
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: death player. I don't want him to be a starter.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: If he's your starter, it should be because one of
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: your actual starters got hurt. But he's fine as a
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: deaf guy. He's fine as a band aid. I still
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: would prefer cam Lewis over him. If Rapper Bishop get hurt,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: I would prefer cam Lewis to step in its safety
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: over Hamlin. We'll see, we will see. But yeah, that's linebackers,
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: that's defensive backs overall CBS safeties. We'll see what happens
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: when Harston. With Harston, I should say, when he comes back,
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: take a look at the specialists here. I don't think
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: this is anything crazy. I'm also going to keep going
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: and go through to the specialist, to the injured and reserved.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: So Tyler Bass, Brad Robbins, Reid Ferguson. I didn't even
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: put this as a banner on the bottom, no disrespect.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: They just thought that was pretty cut and dry. It
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: was really just his bass hurt or not. So we
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: got bass, we have Robins, we have Red Ferguson, nothing crazy,
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: injured reserve. It's listened for you right here, Maxwell Hairston
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: and Tyland Grabl. We talked about Grable earlier. I think
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: when Grabel comes back again, all things being equal, and
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: nothing happens to the top nine. As of right now,
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: I think Grabel comes back, Chase Lunt gets moved Hairston
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: again as a note booth there. Hairston Grabel are designated
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: as eligible to return and are eligible to be activated.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: Week five. We'll see if that happens or how that happens.
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: We'll see how Harston progresses. I do think it's very
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: realistic that he's ready and active by week five, and
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: then if that's the case, we'll see if one of
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: the corners get bounced or if someone else gets bounced
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: for Hairston's return, and then what we also have their
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: reserve or suspended Michael Hoyt, Larry Ogunjobi. As noted at
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: the bottom there of the page, Hoyt and Ogan Jobe
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: are eligible to return week eight at Carolina. That is
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: because they're suspended for the first six games. Week seven,
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: they have a bye week, so they're eligible to come
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: back in week seven, But the Bills don't play a
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: game that week, so it'll be first six weeks they're suspended,
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: and then they can get right back at it start practicing.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: Week seven there's no game, so week eight is the
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: first opportunity they can come back, which is at carorow
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: Lina laid out right there again now for those who
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: don't know, in order to activate any of those four,
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: in order to activate Hairston, Grable, hoy or Ogan job
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter if they're injured or suspended. To activate any
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: of those guys to the fifty three man roster. Somebody
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: has to be moved. They have to be released, they
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: have to be traded, they have to be waived. Somebody
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: has to leave the fifty three for one of those
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: guys to come to the fifty three. That's why we
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: talked about it a bit earlier. We'll see again who
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: gets moved, what gamesmanship happens. Again, There's still could be
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: some stuff that shakes down. Now. We could see some
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: announcements later tonight or tomorrow or throughout the week that
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: someone gets put on the pup or someone gets put
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: on this somebody could get hurt week one, two, three, four, five, six,
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: anything like that, and it makes it easy just to
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: add them and drop a practice squad guy who got
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: called up for a week. So there's a lot of
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: movement in shaking that could potentially still happen. But keep
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: that in mind again, for any one of these four
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: to come to the fifty three, someone currently on the
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: fifty three has to go bye bye, and let's see
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: anything else. Man, Paige, Nope, all right, some goonna stop
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: the screen share there. We're still gonna keep talking here
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: on this episode. Oh No, I don't have the banner
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: on the top. That's annoying there.
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: Let's bring up practice squad priorities. I want to go
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: back to I think I started. Yeah, bills are electric.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: He put a long practice squad hopeful list together earlier.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: He said, my practice squad hopeful is Frank or Junior,
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: Stephen Gosnell, Keyanta Jenkins, Jimmy Charlow, kJ Hamler, Zion Loge
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: to Corey Couch, Jane Bouchelle, Jordan Phillips, Christian Wilkerson, Dane Jackson,
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: and then a lot to the tight end. I echo
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: a lot of these. Give me priority. To Gore. I
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: thought Gosnell had some positive things that he did. I
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: liked Keanta Jenkins. He moved well, he flashed, he had
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: some juice to him and some finishing ability. I'm cool
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: with Charlotte coming back. I'm really cool with all these
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: guys that would make us up a significant chunk of
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: my list of hopefuls. I'm also I like to Corey Kouch,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: he went to the U and I thought he showed
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: some things. Jordan Phillips, I guess we'll talk about it
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: a bit. He's gonna be on the practice squad. We'll
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 1: see if he matters at any point during the season.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: I hope he doesn't. I know he had that awesome
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 1: sack against the Chiefs. I don't think he really has
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: much left to offer, but culture fit. He's always performed
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: better with the Bills. I get it. I understand that.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's crazier the end of the world
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: that he got added to the practice squad, But I
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: still don't like it. But we'll see. I think that's
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: a very fine list there. Yeah. I oh, good call
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: here from Timbo saying Campton Jenkins called my I. Ram
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: bamsays agree with that potential practice squad list. Oh Thomas saying,
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: I hope they bring Zie Alexander back for the practice squad. Yeah,
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: rookie corner from LSU they brought in for this last week. Jason,
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: you're a fan of the Jordan Phillips move, saying even
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: if he doesn't, I think having Jordan Phillips as a
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: backup is awesome. That's fair. I am not, but to
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: each their own. And Austin says, got to get the
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: hard Knocks all stars on there, Charlowe and Hamlin. Yeah, well,
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: I forgot that hard knocks is tonight could call. Yeah,
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: I hope Charlo comes back. I really Oh, I don't
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: know who my biggest practice squad priority guy would be.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: I really like Frank or I just don't know if
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to crack the roster this year
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: or next year. But I like Frank Gore a lot.
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: But that practice squad list, I thought from Bill's our
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: electric was really super solid. And I think a lot
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: of the guys that the Bills cut they would like
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: to bring back, or the guys that they waved, even
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: somebody like last year day Kwon Hardy got cut was
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: unfortunately he got waved. He came back to the practice squad.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: I think it would be nice to see, you know,
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: several of those guys come back. And I thought, Bills
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: are electric. Your list was really solid. So that's why
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: I started and wanted to note that Carl says which
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: player will be most excited to see if we're able
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: to get him back on the practice squad Wide receiver
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: Christian Wilkerson or Jimmy Charlow. You know what, I like
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: Wilkerson and some of the things that he did at
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: wide receiver, like actual offensive snaps, I'm gonna say Charlo
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: just because I think Charlo's path to making an impact
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: on the team is easier than Wilkerson's. Like Wilkerson has
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: to pop a significant amount of hurdles and players to
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: contribute meetingfully on offense. He could contribute on special teams,
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: But I think Charlo is the better special teamer, and
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: I think him being able to contribute on special teams
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: is more likely than Wilkerson contributing on special teams or
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: contributing on offense. So between those two, I would say
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Charlow. Plus like the way his name sounds. He
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: sounds like a mob assassin, like, oh we got to
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: you know, whax, some guy in midtown call up Jimmy Charlote.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: It just sounds good, sounds good, sounds good. Uh what else?
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: Ginger says, don't we need a safety on the practice squad? Yeah?
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: Could be Derek Forrest, could be someone else. I think,
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe it's Jordan poy Uh could be
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: Derek Forrest. Ginger. I think you also asked earlier. I
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: meant to start and I didn't. I think you asked
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: me about what happened with Forrest. I think it was you.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: If it was somebody else, I apologize, and you're still here,
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: feel free to let me know. Or Ginger, if it
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 1: was you, because now it's in my brain is driving
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: me nuts. I would like to see Forrest on the
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: practice squad he it was you. Think you? Ginger appreciate
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: you his This is pure speculation by me. He looked
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: heavier and thicker in person and on tape with the
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: Bills than he did with Washington. I don't know if
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: he was playing heavy or if he weighed more, but
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: he just did not look as twitchy and as quick
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: and as rangy as he did with Washington. And I
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: think that was a significant piece for me of why,
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: you know, he didn't look great and potentially why he
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: wasn't playing I don't think it was, you know. Again,
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: it could have been he wasn't grasping the defense, or
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: he was making mental errors. I think it was more
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 1: of just kind of a movement thing and him not
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: showing it. He looked heavier. I actually was like looking
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: up some of his Washington stuff today and he just
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: looked noticeably trimmer, and he moved much differently than he
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: did here with the Bills. So I don't know if
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: they asked him to bulk up to play more of
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: a different role or that's kind of what he did anyway,
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 1: But he just didn't look like the same player that
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: he did in Washington. The player I saw in Washington
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: I thought would have been an easy kind of top
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: on this team, not necessarily a starter. I thought he
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: could have competed if things went off the rails a bit,
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: but or even kind of outpace Hamlin. But it's not
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: the case, so we'll see m awesome Lauren. Lauren says,
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: I don't want to run into Jimmy Charlo and Tommy
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: Cutlass and at Dark Alley, you do not sounds like
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: killers from the Sopranos. Absolutely well said, I like that.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: I like that.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: Steve says, the best. That's funny, the best. It's funny
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: too because like Tommy Cutlass is a nickname, but Jimmy
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: Charlo is just a real name and makes it even
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: more badass. Steve says, the best two players are the
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: two best players day in and day out at training
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: camp with the Milano and Coleman. They need to be
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: featured on Hard Knocks tonight. I need a Milano interview
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: bad I think that's fair. I think that's fair. You
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: know what I need bad. The best pizza in Buffalo.
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 1: One Pi Pizza the best pizza in Buffalo, New York.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: I don't say that because they sponsor the show. They
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: sponsor the show because they are the best pizza in Buffalo,
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: New York. I mean that wholeheartedly. I say it with
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: my heart and all of my chest. Cup and char pepperoni,
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: piz sauce pie, homemade blue cheese, a breakfast pizza option
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: that's delicious. They also have a catering division called Elevated
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: Catering of Buffalo. They do all kinds of events. The
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: food is awesome. It's not I mean, you can still
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: get pizza if you want, but they do different kinds
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: of mac and cheeses. They do these great salads. They
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: do this coconut rice and chicken dish that's awesome and
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: out of this world, really great stuff. The online menu
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: for one Pi Pizza and their catering division can be
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: found in the episode showing us whether here on YouTube
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: or whichever podcasting, every platform you're listening to this show on,
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: and they do a ton of good stuff for the community.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: Like I talked about, all the time partnering with roswelld
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: and Knockout Cancer, the SPCA, the Alzheimer's Foundation, Toys for Tots.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: They're constantly trying to find ways to give back to
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: the city and the community at large, aside from just
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: giving everyone fantastic food on a regular basis. So yeah,
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: get yourself some one Pi pizza. If you live in Buffalo,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: get yourself some one Pi pizza. If you're traveling to
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: Buffalo at some point, stop get yourself some one Pie Pizza.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: It is the best pizza in Buffalo, New York. Again,
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: I don't say that because they sponsor the show. They
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: sponsored the show because I think they are the best pizza.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: And for those who don't know, I had actually reached
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: out to a different pizza spot to sponsor the show.
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: One Pie heard It reached out to me. I had
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: never heard of One Pie. They offered me a free
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: pizza to kind of see if I like their stuff.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: I tasted it and I have never gone back. True story,
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: that's not this relationship developed. Get yourself some one Pie Pizza.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: I read this comment from Thomas and saw you said
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: Zah Frasier for the Practice Squad also cut from the Bears.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: I read this as Zach Frasier, the center for the Steelers,
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: and I got extremely excited out of nowhere, so that
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: now I'm gonna come down. Now I'm on the come down.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: Phillips says, Oh, who do you think will have a
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 1: breakout season? Which player in the offense and which in
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: the defense? Oh? Real quick, Austin says, you need a
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: referral code. When you go in, tell them that the
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: sgui's coverage sent you. When you go to one Pie Pizza,
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: tell them Disguise coverage sent. You could also say cover one,
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: but tell them disguy's coverage sent you that I know
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: it's on a referral code. Tell them Disguy's coverage sent you.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: Phillips says, who do you think will have a breakout season?
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: Which player in the offense of which in the defense.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: I guess it depends on what you define his breakout. Defensively,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: I think TJ. Sanders is going to perform well. I
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: think he's gonna struggle against the run a bit, but
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: I think he's gonna have some good pass rushing numbers
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: and I think that will constitute a breakout. Nationally, I
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: think Christian Benford is gonna break out. I think he
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: is very much slept on nationally, as evidence by not
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 1: even being referenced on the top cornerbacks list for ESPN,
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: like not even honorable mention, nothing. So Benford is my
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: big answer. I think nationally everybody will know who he is. Offensively,
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: I think Osyrus Torrence potentially in that conversation, and if
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: he stays healthy, I think Dalton Kincaid puts up big
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: pass catching numbers. Either him or Coleman I think has
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: a breakout as a pass catcher. So Torrence, Coleman, and
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: Kate those are kind of my options there. We'll see,
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: we will see, we will see, we will see. Someone
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: else had a comment here. Uh no, I think that's everything.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: Uh nope. Gingji said, are you concerned about special teams
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: a little bit because they were bad last year? But
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: I have faith in Tabor to course correct and write
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: the ship and get them to where they need to be.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw up the banner that says toodles, folks.
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: I would continue to do this and we could talk
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: forever as we normally do on the show, But as
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, I've got to go and get ready
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: for a call. With some overseas partners. That is happening
• 1:19:44
