I was just listening to Marv's interview with Pat Kirwan on sirius NFL radio (interview is on BB.com) and when asked about Adams and Vincent he said that Adams doesnt quite fit the system because they want players who "fly to the ball" where as Adams is more of a 3-4 Nose type DT. This probably also means that Ngata is not an option at our #8 draft pick. On Vincent he said that he has done some good things. So im thinking the Bills may be looking to either move up and get Brick, or draft Huff or Jimmy Williams who would be great in a cover 2 scheme. And then in the second we can take a player like Bunckley who fits what Marv is describing at DT. This is assuming OL is addressed in FA. If not, maybe we take Triplett from Indy. and go OL in the second.

If they can't move up to get D'brick, I am not sure how they go. I agree Ngata may not be what Marv and DJ have in mind for a DT. Who in the draft is more like Tommie Harris from OU? That is the type of DT they want

Re: Adams does not fit Bills system says Marv
Speaking of, Both DT's for Chicago are barely over 300lbs but Very stong, very good technique and quickness. Both DE's are slightly over 260.
They want speed, Quickness and technique. Not a bad combo to have.

Re: Adams does not fit Bills system says Marv
That's rather surprising.
Adams has shown he can just blow into the backfield with a quick initial move many times over, in his 3 years here. How could that not fit the Cover 2 ?
Lets review. We let Pat Williams walk and now people wish to cut Adams. That leaves us with what in the middle of the DL, other than short on talent ?
Cheap contracts will not impress the opposing teams OL, who will just run over us until we can prove we can stop them.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

Re: Adams does not fit Bills system says Marv
I miss the days when the Bills had Ted Washington/Pat Williams or Pat Williams/Sam Adams in the middle and teams couldn't run on us.
Besides bums at QB last year, the Bills biggest problem was stopping the run. Pat Williams was clearly missed.

Re: Adams does not fit Bills system says Marv
Marv's philosophy worries me. Our fast, athletic defense of the Super Bowl years was fun to watch and obviously pretty good. But it was a smallish, not extremely "smash mouth"-type unit which was in large part responsible for our not being able to stop our more physical NFC opponents.
I would like to see Adams and Ngata anchoring a monster line.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Originally posted by Carlton BaileyAs long as we don't get Ngata I'm happy. I watched him in the Holiday Bowl and he was non-existent.
If there is a contraption or drill out there that will help construct a stronger, faster OU player, Jerry Schmidt knows about it, writes Ivan Maisel.
By your thought process, everyone should pass on Reggie Bush in the top 10 as well right? I mean Adrian Peterson put up 200+ on texASS as a freshman so Reggie must suck.
Guys have bad games ALL of them have bad games. You can't judge an essential rookie NFL QB on just 8 games just like you can't judge a college player on one bowl game.

Adams is a self serving player as well. That won't fly under marvs command. And as for as the Superbowl years, We had one major problem. We ran a 3/4 with a weak assed/ Small NT. had we went 4-3 or had a ted washington at NT, we would have been fine. But when the center can man handle the NT alone....you are screwed.
