We know. He sucks... He was overdrafted...he's a bust...I hate his dog...blah,blah,blah...

I wonder if he'll even get a chance to make the roster... but a NG may be needed in certain Pettine schemes. We'll see.

Im in the small camp of thinking hes going to be a damn good part of this team moving forward. I think hes going to be a pleasant surprise.

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

I am pulling for him, but I'll never forget screaming at the tv when we passed on Gronk. I think Pettine can definitely find a place for him in certain packages, so long as he can stay healthy.

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

he should be cut... give someone else a chance. he can't stay healthy, and hasn't done much in 21 games

he's under contract. let him compete like everyone else. think of him as another draft pick

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

I've written him off. If he does anything, it will be like found money.

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

The article wouldn't load for me so Im going to assume this is about Troup?

If so I have no desire to see him as a 34 NT again.

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

Yes it's Troup. The guy is always injured though. Bad luck, bad conditioning, or bad genes, we can't give him many more chances.

As Justa said, he is under contract. And he is CHEAP. Why can't we give him anymore chances? I think the Bills give him every chance to make the team in TC. Nothing to lose by doing that. LOW risk high reward.

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

He should and will most definitely be given another chance. To cut him now would be stupid.

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

If we are indeed going back to a hybrid front, then we need another 3-4 NT. This is his last chance.

Gronk has more career TD's than he has tackles.

Yikes!

No question Gronk should have been the Bills pick. That said, if the Bills can get ANYTHING out of Troup at this point it will be a plus.

Because cost should not be a determining factor when you cannot definitively say he has an skill.

Re: I Forgot About This Guy

I'd love to see us use a 4-6 with a big NT in the middle and Dareaus and Kyle playing DT. Mario at LDE and then we have the luxury of using hybrid DE/OLB at the other end position/ OLB position.

And I'd actually love it if we drafted the biggest basest NT at #8. That Jenkins kid from Georgia is a beast...
