No doubt his career has been a disappointment relative to his draft position and contract.

However, that is now irrelevant to us.

A one year cheap contract would upgrade our LB group.

You put in a call to Nick Saban and say, "Nick, we'd like to give the guy a shot at redemption. A) Will we be able to get through to him and B) If so, how do we get through to him?"

If he says, "you can't" move on.

I remember, after the pick, Tom Jackson saying, "Three years ago the Raiders drafted a QB, they still need a QB. Two years ago the Raiders drafted a RB, they still need a RB. Last year they drafted a WR, they still need a WR. I guarantee three years from now they won't need an MLB." Think again, TJ.

Slow, takes terrible angles, doesn't shed blocks at all, only motivated when he feels like it, and a terrible person.

What about that says "bring him in"? We had enough slow linebackers last year, just because he's younger and was drafted higher doesn't make him better.

I am pretty sure he is subject to wavers. But I heard Adam Shefter say that McClain is from Philly & he told the Raiders he wanted to play close to home & didn't want them to draft him. They drafted him anyway. Sometimes a change of scenery does a person good.

And this is the reason I like the Bills drafting players from the SEC & the South rather than the West. Unless a YOUNG guy is happy about moving across the entire Country, NOT good to make him do so.

It's like a mix between Rambo and John McClane.

Aaron Curry was another guy who the draftniks unanimously hailed as a sure thing.

McClain is mind numbbingly bad.

I had the misfortune of having to watch quite a few Raiders games the last few years, and lemme tell you. The nickname "Slowlando" was WELL earned.

He's slow, takes bad angles, CONSTANTLY missed the correct gap, his instincts are terrible, he doesn't get off blocks well, he's a locker room parasite and he's liable to not even give 1/10th of the effort he could because he'd be in Buffalo.

He's a 2 down thumper who can lay a pretty good lick every once in a while but anything other than 10-12 snaps a game and you're begging for disaster. He's going to continue to live off his high draft stock, but I for one am GLAD we didn't bring him in. We don't need more linebackers who suck. And he's a better fit for a 3-4 then the 4-3/3-4 hybrid we're going to run, being an ILB in a 3-4 will help mask his lack of speed. He wouldn't have worked here and I doubt he works with the Ravens.

That is a certainty. Ozzie is an Alabama guy and still his a lot of connections to the school outside of Saban (who he knows from Cleveland). They also have some other Alabama guys on the roster in Terrence Cody and Courtney Upshaw.

I agree he was terrible in Oakland, but the situation was probably part of that. Not to forgive his responsibility for busting, but Oakland has been a train-wreck since he was drafted. I am willing to bet the atmosphere and leadership in Baltimore will be a change, they are an organization that knows how to do things the right way. It will be a fresh start, it is up to him to take advantage.

McClain probably will never be a 3-down LB, but he is a big dude that can be a physical force against the run if his head is right. He was a terrific player at Alabama and had enough talent to be drafted pretty high. No doubt he isn't a burner, but he ran a 4.68 at his pro day so he should be athletic enough to play the position. His issues can be helped by good coaching and a winning atmosphere.

For $700k at a position of need, it's worth the risk.

Probably the best place for him to go as a reclamation project. If he gets his head screwed back on straight, that can be a great signing.

He was never known as just a great hitter, he was known at Alabama as pretty damn smart, the coach-on-the-field cliche.

Saban used to compliment him on that all the time.

Still wouldn't have minded taking him, especially for that price.

Kolb counts more against the cap and Kolb is DEFINITELY not the answer. Kolb already blew two chances.

McClain had one chance in one of the 2 or 3 organizations in the NFL that approach Buffalo's level of incompetence. Is he the answer? I really don't know, but it's worth $700k to find out.

There is nothing contradicting about my logic whatsoever. The problem is that you think "logic" means "acting the exact same way in every single situation no matter how different the situations are."

Kolb sucks. The only advantage he has is that he's slightly better than Fitz, which still puts him right in "suck" territory. It was a case of the Bills desperately grabbing at what was available. I simply don't think he's capable of resurrecting his career.

McClain- I think it's possible that he could resurrect his career. And if he doesn't, it's only $700k and he brings toughness and hard hits to a D that completely lacks identity.

I don't know why you think I would react the same way to signing two completely different players. That's the problem. People like you and Hurkey and justa think I don't like to *****. The reality is that I look at every move on its individual merits. It's not my fault that the Bills do so many stupid things that should piss off anyone who wants the team to win.

And now everyone knows what I have said from the time he was signed, it is an incentive filled contract with only $1 Million Guaranteed. Not much more than McClain got & Kolb is a QB.

Aside from Arizona, he was sacked a lot his last year in Philly as well. Kolb holds the ball too long and takes too long to deliver it. He lacks the anticipation to make plays. Arizona doesn't have a great OL, but Kolb was part of the reason he was sacked so much. He needs to recognize the blitz and get rid of the ball, and he doesn't show awareness in the pocket. He can look good and make plays in streaks, but his lack of awareness in the pocket is ultimately his undoing. Kind of like J.P. Losman.

That said, I'm not sure how McClain is any different. Both guys are reclamation projects who haven't played up to expectations. Both were signed to low-risk deals. They were signed to see if a change will allow them to better their flaws and help out, if not they are released with little cost. Different positions, same difference.

If Kolb played terrible in Philly, the Cards would not have given up so much to get him. If I remember right, Philly had injuries on their OL Kolbs last year. And to say Arizona didn't have a great OL is a HUGE understatement. They had a TERRIBLE OL.

Like I said if Kolb is not Good enough to start, I KNOW he will be a better back up than Thigpen. And most likely Kolb or TJax gets cut before the season starts, so if Kolb is terrible, he will be gone, but I don't see that happening myself.

Kolb sucks, period.

One crappy player isn't the same as the next.

Obtuse loser.

According to WHNT News, McClain was in his hometown of Decatur, Alabama at Pines Park when a large group gathered. Police ordered McClain and several other people to leave, and witnesses said McClain not only refused to do so, but began cursing at the officers.

McClain was handcuffed and taken to the city jail before bonding out a short time later.

...disorderly conduct THIS time. Add it to the list. This guy is given another chance, and he pulls this crap already?

he's worth the risk at 700k and worth a roster spot

He's totally worthless. He's going to be getting a suspension, pretty much guaranteed, if not for this, then the next thing he stuffs up on. I also wonder how many other charges have yet to be resolved.

After previous numerous arrests, he still can't work it out. He's not worth paying $7 - let alone $700,000.

Oops! In that case, you have my apologies. Can't have my head screwed on right today, as I normally don't miss sarcasm. ;)

no apologies needed. Just thought people would realize that based on my arguments with OP on this thread. ;)

Whilst I'd looked at the thread ages ago, I simply looked at the last page today, hence the response. ;)

the good news is the prison team also needed a LB, so this proves that things really have a way of working out in the end.

I thought the draft was an exact science. Always when you are willing to change your opinions according to how things turn out. If anyone remembers what you said before and you were wrong call them a liar, if they have proof, claim your account was hacked. If you are right, throw it in everyone's face as proof you know better. Been doing it for years, works great.

Have you considered a public sector job? :scooter: Absolutely not. Despite everything I've ever done to fuel my maddened self centered purposes I would certainly not dirty my foul reputation with public sector ambition. I have principles.
