Owen Schmitt

[more cowbell]

The Bills need to draft this guy in april he is hands down one of the best fullbacks to come along in a LONG time in college football.

He's faster than most fullbacks in the NFL, he can block as well as anyone and he has a mean streak unlike anyone ive ever seen in my life...

he breaks a facemask almost every game he plays in.

Thats the kind of player we need around here...something tells me on a 4th and 1 he would be able to get it.

Re: Owen Schmitt

I 100% agree. If fact, I have us taking him in my mock. Not that I'm claiming to be a college/draft expert.

Re: Owen Schmitt

Yea I watched the Bowl game tonight and he is a monster, I hope we land this guy in the draft.

Re: Owen Schmitt

Our offense doesn't have an FB position so that's why we have a bunch of mediocre "hybrids".

I had him marked down as a favorite before last night. Now he's the worst kept secret around.

Can one imagine Lynch following this FB to the hole, as he wipes out the MLB or Safety ? Plus picking off the blitzer. He's exceptional in his all around game.

We like.

Re: Owen Schmitt

He's a very good FB, best in the class even, may go as high as the 3rd Round

Re: Owen Schmitt

Re: Owen Schmitt

Great college fb who could play HB in our system .. He also excels on special teams.... Gotta love this kid...Cried during interview at end of game .. Because he and his teammates played their last game for their school.. The NFL needs more guys like Owen who just loves to play the game... The passion he brings to the game is very refreshing.. This Guy would sell many bills jerseys ...Puz and Owen would be some kind of duo in Buffalo....I can see the mohawks in the ralph right now....

Re: Owen Schmitt

The idea of us not using a FB this past season MIGHT have worked if we had a TE who could catch the ball. But having said that, I would still rather go with a pure FB who can block nasty and catch the ball out in the flats. It opens up so much more of the offense when the QB has an addistional safety outlet to dump the ball off too.

Re: Owen Schmitt

He would look great in a BILLS UNIFORM
