    Well, it makes sense right now since we don't have many options there. Not to mention that Kelsay's salary means he'll be starting at one OLB position and Merriman will surely have the other.

    Gotta get Moats on the field.

      Are you serious? He did so good as a pass rushing OLB. Why the **** would they move him back? I hate this team!

      Op is right! :banghead:

        The one rookie who did something last year and move his position though? When he was clearly not comfortable at ILB during the preseason and games. Maybe he can do it but, the reasoning that one of the few promising young players has to move position because of people like Kelsay.... makes me sad.

          Moats best asset is his pass rush abilities which are best utilized at OLB. In addition, who do they have at OLB that they can move Moats inside?

              I believe I mentioned two names. It's kind of sounds like he's just set there now because 1) Sheppard isn't in camp and 2) We haven't signed an ILB yet. It's like Kaepernick taking 1st team reps in SF. Alex Smith isn't in camp yet.

              You guys really are quick to jump to conclusions. Of course, I don't have much faith in the Bills to do the right thing a lot of the time, but at least wait until their full roster is in place before going off the deep end.

                They should just move Kelsay inside.

                Or maybe Brad Smith. He can do everything.

                    Aren't Torbor and Davis in camp? Where is Batten playing?

                      Moats can rush the passer.

                      I'm thinking Dareus and Williams just might open up some holes for him to blitz.

                      Everyone dogs Kawika Mitchell, but the blitz with him up the middle was money in '08.

                        We have two ILB spots. Davis is one and Moats is filling in at the other. It's more likely, as the roster sits now without Sheppard signed, that Moats plays ahead of Torbor than either Merriman or Kelsay.

                          A stiff breeze could start ahead of Kelsay and it would be an upgrade. Kelsay's only value is when they run a 4-3 front.

                            OMG if this is true I am really starting to question our coach and staff?

                            Moats looked great when he kicked outside he should play opposite Merriman

                            We need to sign an ILB Crowder would be a good 2 down backer for runs

                              I'm not saying Kelsay is good. But with his contract you can bet your ass he'll be on the field as a starter. Unless he's cut, which would be great by me.
