Since everything on here has been doom and gloom and I am a regular contributer to that....
I figured I would write something positive for a change...
The Nix/Gailey regime has impressed with there constant watch of the waiver wire and adding players with actual size and potential to actually/maybe contribute on a Sunday in the Near future...also something Skeltor's regime didn't do...was actually having the PS full all the time.
Countless times last year we were riding with 5 or 6 players on the PS (limit is 8) and had 2-3 spots to fill..I wrote a few threads on this mismanagement every single year Skletor was leading the charge..
Paul Hubbard WR-6ft 2 225lbs-has size and speed something u cant teach and could maybe have some untapped potential or maybe needed to be in the right offense...he was a former 6th rd pick in 2008 by the Browns as well,
John Russell OLB 6ft 3 260lbs- is making the tuff conversion from DT/DE to OLB on our 3-4. Has size and strenght against the run from what I read. Has potential to maybe put his hand down and rush the passer as well.
Dominque Harris SS 6ft 2 213lbs- I liked what i seen from him in the preseason and he actually made the roster out of camp..Also has good size and speed combo and looked good on ST's and came up and popped RB's.
Chad Rinehart OL 6ft 5 307 lbs-Came from a small school but was drafted in the 3rd round in 2008 by Washington. Can play both spots and has good size and from what I read likes to play with a mean streak.
Naamon Roosevelt WR 6ft 1 189lbs- Local boy done good...has good enough size and speed to play on ST's and maybe be a 4th or 5th WR. Has good hands and plays physical.
Thomas Williams LB 6ft 1 240lbs- A former 5th rd pick in 2008 by JAX and from what I read can play ST's very well. Has NFL experiance so if a guy on the 53 man goes down he can step in and add a ST presence as well.
Jason Watkins OL 6ft 6 325lbs and Robert Furgeson FB 6ft 234lbs showed ok in the preseason. But i personally dont think keeping a FB on the PS is wise..get another LBer in here....Furgeson is to small to play FB in this league. Watkins got alot of playing time in the preseason and the coach's must have liked what they seen in him..also brings ability to play both tackle and guard and has good size for the positions.
Also adding another former 3rd pick in Kraig Urbik at OG 6ft 5 325lbs who the Bill"s had rated right behind Wood and Levitre and I think the Bills are defintely looking at developing player's for the long term and even thou none of these guys might ever make it in the NFL at least it looks like we have a plan on what we want to develop and what type of team we are trying to build..the change in philosphy is welcome in my opinion!
