    Look for the Bills to go with no FB, or one with a reduced role.

    OK, the Bill smade no attempt to grab/upgrade a FB in this draft. And, with only 2 drafted, the Bills had a lot to choose from in the 7th.

    The Bills look to have targeted lineman who excell at run blocking.

    Who would you guys rather have as the 11th player on the field? First, I will list the first 10
    1. Edwards
    2. Lynch
    3. TO
    4. Evans
    5. Nelson
    6. Butler
    7. Woods
    8. Levitre
    9. Hangartner
    10. Walker

    Now, there are a number of differnet packages the Bills could use at any givem moment depending on a number of different things. There are times when Jackson would be the 11th, Fine, Hardy, Johnson, Schouman, Rhodes, Parrish, and of course Reed.

    But, how often do you think McIntyre will be the best 11th option?

      Id rather have McCall. But without a FB just go with Reed as a slot

        I think Reed will see the field a lot. So much so, that he is basically a starter. He will likely be subed out when the Bills are around the opposing 20 yard line though. He isn't exactly the most awesomest red zone threat.

            we have a FB. McIntyre. hes a blocker, which is all we care about. I bet we'll see a FB just as much as we did last year.

              Well ok, except he sucked at blocking too.

                I could easily see a FB not making the 53 man roster. For short yardage, they could use another position player at FB.

                  Aside from Barber, Lynch is the best short yardage RB ive ever seen. Why use someone else?

                    I wouldn't be surprised. He better excell on special teams.

                    I think he means that Fine, or someone, could be used in a lead blocker capacity like once a weekish.

                      Schouman and Fine are ok at blocking out of the backfield.

                      Turk wants a lead man to mow down people for Marshawn, so I see McIntyre taking the field a lot, even if I would rather see Action in the backfield with Marshawn.

                        How much mowing did you see McIntyre do last year? I seen him get in the way more then he paved one.

                          I think Fine will see a lot of action this year.

                            I can't see the FB being used in any situation other than short yardage or goaline packages. We just have too much talent on the offensive side of the ball to have McIntyre on the field in any other situation.
