Dont mind this signing but hate to lose Youboty for the year.

Re: Bills sign LB Teddy Lehman

Youboty is injury prone
What is the story with Teddy Liheman?

I seriously think our conditioning coaches suck balls.

I believe Lehman was brought in during training camp either this year

That's our fourth player on injured reserve. There's plenty of other teams who have much, much larger lists.

Teddy is a big special teams contributor. He played for OU, won the butkus award in 2003. He is a 2nd round draft pick of the detroit lions in 04. He started all 16 games as a rookie. finished with over 100 tackles. Injuries have hurt him recently, but he is young and has upside. Good signing by the front office, But now we are kinda short on CBs... Is kennard Cox still out there?

It looks like Cox is on GB's practice squad. If the Bills wanted him, they could sign him to the roster. I guess they're confident that they can just use 4 CB's for the meantime.

Re: Bills sign LB Teddy Lehman

Lehman was looking like the next Chris Spielman early in his career in Detroit. Then injuries mounted, and he fell down the D.C, and became a permanent backup. I like this signing by the Bills, at least he's not too old, and he's played in the NFL before.

Re: Bills sign LB Teddy Lehman

He hasnt been in Buffalo before.. If I remember correctly, and im not looking at any stats or bio; he's a former Detroit Lion. Someone on this board had a hard on to bring him in via FA this past spring, I cant remember who it is..

Awesome find, but I think we're losing a lot of our impactful players to just plain old normal injuries, not IR...Butler, McGee, Whitner, Reed, Schobel, Digi, Crowell, now Kawika is questionable. Those were all starters that are done for the season or injured for a long period of time. That's almost half our defensive starters.

We still have 4 CBs.. The two rookies are now going to have to really step up.. Especially with WHitner out, who plays some corner in our nickel and dime packages.

I agree, it is worrying that most of our important players are getting injured. Hopefully the ones not on IR can come back very quickly.

Re: Bills sign LB Teddy Lehman

He was a Lion, Pat, you are correct. He had 100+ tackles in his rookie season, then got hurt for most of 2 years. Last year he was buried behind Ernie Sims and Boss Bailey.
