Re: Preston at Center?
preston was drafted by the old regime and he may or may not fit into the plans.. what i do know is that he didnt play well last year at all.. and just because some guy on sporting news says preston is ready to take over doesnt mean squat.
preston was consistently shoved around just like trey teague was.. preston showed very little to be excited about to be honest. now this is not to imply that he is not going to work out.. hopefully he gets in better shape and gets strong this offseason.. but he can and did play guard.. make him fight and win a job if he wants it, just like the coaches want losman to do.
bentley would actually give us a center that doesnt get pushed into the qb by every DT out there.. since kent hull.."All hockey players are bilingual. They know English and profanity." ~ Gordie Howe

Re: Preston at Center?
Im sorry Ill take bently over Preston in a heartbeat. The quickest way to build a line is from the inside out. Bently would be a great center for this team and he's young, Don't forget we have nothing for left guard. Villarelli and Peters i think the team Should keep. Everyone else is expendable in my book. Enought is enought time to upgrade the line.

I don't think Preston was bad. He just needed to get stronger. It should have been no surprise that a rookie was getting beat strengthwise. Luckily, stength is something you can completely change around during the offseason. Just look at Shaud Williams and how buff he came in last year compared to the year before!!!

1) Sign Bentley, 2) draft a G in the 2nd round, 3) let Preston, Villarial, and 2nd round draftee compete for the two guard spots, and then
4) dip Bennie Anderson in tar, roll him in jelly donuts, and send him to the Dolphins.Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

Re: Preston at Center?
I agree Preston was not good at all last season. Neither was Geisinger (at guard). It may be that neither one will ever be good. I think we have to trust the Bills organization to some extent, to make smart decisions based on what they know that we don't. There are off season workouts and monitoring. Evaluation is done year round.I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

Re: Preston at Center?
Does anyone really think the Bills have a real chance at Bentley given their cap situtation (even if Moulds leaves)? He sounds great in theory, but it still leaves the Bills with some huge holes to fill (i.e., left guard and defensive tackle) with limited financial resources to do so.
Just thinking practically, the Bills could address left guard in round 2 of the draft (someone like Joseph, Spencer, Lutui). Yes it would mean a rookie starter but given the experience of Bentley in the middle that should more then sufficient.
The big problem then is defensive tackle, say the Bills take Davis in the first round and spent the majority of their free agent dollars on Bentley. How do they shore up the d-line? Bargain basement free agents or later round draft picks?
I don't know the answer, just raising questions.
