    What about Alvin Bowen...

    We all know Keith Ellison sucks and should not be starting next season

    So the Bills should address WLB in FA (Crow) or the draft

    But then I was thinking what about Alvin Bowen...I know he was a tackling machine in college but had a pretty bad injury in TC

    Anyone know the progress he has made with the injury

    Maybe just use bowen, then draft a DE/LB in the 3rd so if Bowen is good hes the LB and if he isnt then we have a LB.

      He should be a special teams beast.

        Mitchell plays WLB for the Bills. Ellison is the SAM

          I totally forgot about Bowen...but, they still need to bring in a linebacker for depth. If you remember, when Kawika Mitchell was listed as questionable, Jon Corto was put in the starting position...I like Corto on ST, but to say he's a starting LB is scary...

            We need to draft the best DE or LB available in RD1.

              I also forgot about Bowen, he seemed to have some potential, and i was sad to see him go down. Lets hope he can contribute and learn as well. If I remember, Crowell was not good for his first couple years and has become very solid. Maybe Bowen can step up next year.

                I like Bowen, but we over drafted the guy, he is also small like Ellison which doesnt help, i hope he can put some weight on in the offseason
                He is a converted Saftey and is only like 220lbs, i think we need to be more stout with our LBers at the point of attack Ellison gets bulled over to much i fear Bowen will be much of the same
                Should be good ST player and depth for us thou

                  NA our coaches love Ellison just like they love Kelsay and Wilson.

                    we could still keep crow now, he would be cheap compared to if he played this past season

                      I like Bowen, but I'd still like to see us go LB and 2 DEs early in the draft/FA. Bowen was a 5th rounder, so I'm not sure he's the big time pass rusher we need. If he turns out to be good, so much the better. We will have great depth.
                      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                        Given our recent draft history I dont know why anybody would hold their breath on this one.

                            Bowen is SMALL and needs to put on weight

                            We have to many sub 230lb LB's IMHO. LB upgrades are part of the offseason package... we need a top dog to add to our starters and let the rest fight for backup spots

                              Healthy Bowen = Depth

                              Bills need freak pass rusher in 1st round, then LB help and new C.
