Any News on Merriman?

[THATHURMANATOR]

Not that I am expecting much but if Merriman could get on the field next year what position are we looking at?

Any word on his recovery?

As long as Tila keeps her hands off him, he's good.

This guy better be ripped and ready come training camp. Buddy took a chance on him, rewarded him twice and he has given next to nothing back.

It's not for lack of effort.

I disagree, Nix made reference yesterday on Sirius to Merriman begging Nix not to pick him off waivers because he could not stand the thought of coming to Buffalo. I think his injury two plays into his first practice was a very orchestrated event designed to get himself off the field.

If Merriman is healthy he'll be an asset for us...

and I disagree he has given us great effort when he did play.. He might not have recorded a sack, but he set the edge well and our D was better when he was playing

Im pretty sure you just totally miss quoted him bc that makes literally 0 sense. And i mean from ur POV not merriman/nixs.

If merriman recovers and is 80% of what he was our d line would be ridiculous

He definitely contained against the run well. And while he wasn't a sack machine, he did his part. I felt he was also held alot...I don't know what it is that refs seem to look the other way sometimes when our people are being held. Seems to happen quite often!!!

Re: Any News on Merriman?

pornstachio pretty much said they will use merriman as a pass rush specialist. a little expensive for that role but if he can produce and stay on the field it will be worth it. that means this is likely his last chance to stick here, if he gets injured with a limited workload hes history

Re: Any News on Merriman?

weather we cut him or keep him his salary (the last of the contract) is fully guaranteed. we won't pay him to sit or go play for someone else. He'll be on the team this year. now beyond this year is up to his play. if he is healthy our nickle and passing situation pass rush will be insane!!!

Merriman did alot. Gave our D energy, I think it also gave our young players the feeling of, Merriman is playing right next to me, wow. As much as hes sucked lately, Merriman still carrys that name and still has the look that makes u feel like hes still a beast.

And he was a beast when he was healthy. He had a bad achilles tendon for two years & finally had surgery on it this year after being placed on IR by the Bills. Reports are the surgery went well. I would not be surprised to see him healthy next year.

Merriman & Williams on the edges, Dareus & Williams in the middle, WATCH OUT Brady.
