Playing LB in a cover 2 and in any other defense is completely different. You have to be a coverage LB to play in the cover 2 Maybin is not a LB let alone one that excels in coverage.Originally Posted by Goobylal

Simply too early to say, particularly with this coaching staff. You can't tell very much after 6 games.
But you know, if you do want to make judgments this quickly - and even if we whiffed on Maybin - this looks like a great draft. Wood, Byrd, Levitre and Nelson look like long term starters, and maybe stars, while Harris and Langster show some promise. If Maybin comes around, this could be one of the Bills' legendary drafts.
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?
Oye vey!
I don't understand the point of threads like this, anyway. You offer ZERO insight into anything the Bills are currently doing. Yes, we get it, we should have drafted Orakpo. But why the heck are you trying it pound it into our heads? We're not the ones who drafted him.
I hate these stupid threads where people just pick out random players and say "this person sucks," or "we should never have picked this person," etc. You offer no insight, no new information, no solutions, nothing.
These threads have no value. If all you're looking for are zonebucks, I'll donate 100 to you just to stop your whining.

Im put this as simply as I can. You have absolutely no idea what the hell you are talking about.
COMING SOON...
I agree with all you listed except Everett (how you put him here I dont know) and then McKelvin, Poz have been very good seeing they are young.
HH you are becoming that annoying poster you just have to put on ignore. You say some of the dumbest crap.
they all look like wastes because the coaches don't know how to use them properly.
I'm surprised anyone reads his crap any more.

"Eh, Phil. That's one I happen to agree with."
Personally I don't like the way the Bills have handled this whole thing with Maybin, from drafting him untill now. I wasn't crazy about the pick to begin with.
Now he doesn't see much playing time. Call me crazy but other than a QB (whom I give some more time) I expect my first round picks to have an impact and contribute. They however don't give him much of a chance to play so.........whats the point ? We could have traded away our #1 pick for later round picks who won't see the field much in year 1 and you got the same thing. No production.
what is worrying is that the team should be playing these guys because they are worried about their jobs. the fact jauron still doesn't use him makes me afraid that he's coming back next year.
I agree he is not a cover LB... but I do believe that he can spy a RB in the back field on running downs or be able to stay with a RB if he bounces out into a pass play.... or for that matter defend a zone... That might take some adjustments by our DC but if maybin is one of our better capable players we should be creating opportunity for him...
he can also rush the passer from the OLB spot on occasion ...
the bottom line is we ended up signing FA scrubs well into the season as a better option ??? I would have liked to beleive Maybin is the better option.. and the fact that I just want to see him play

Everett was a bum before his injury
McKelvin had 1 good game against KC last yr and a couple of KO returns besides that has been torched regularly
Poz is again injury prone and hasnt made many plays
but hence why i put (so far) next to there names
i mean we have done nothing but lose and these guys were all hi draft picks and on the roster

Should have been Oher, he is doing a great job in Baltimore right now, our line would be fuggin nasty.
I dont get how the same people get mad we try to fill in holes with rookies.
Then they go on and complain when our rookies doesnt have probowl years.
Orakpo is a LB
Maybin was ROBBED by the Bills IF ANYTHING! He could probably be an impact player NOW on another team, but unfortunately for him he was taken by a *****hole team with a coach who won't play a rookie because he's a rookie! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I HATE JAURON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dam*nit Ralph needs to die!! Now!
Maybin was the wrong pick. He had bust written all over him. Typical Bills.
well said OP
