Will Kelsay Be Dealt Soon ?

[Night Train]

Wanny has mentioned having dominant players upfront in Dareus, Kyle & Mario Williams...no mention of Kelsay.

Wanny stated they're going to stick Mario Williams at the position he fits best, Left Defensive End....Kelsays current position.

When pressed whether Kelsay is therefore moving to the right side, Wanny says "we'll figure all that out after the draft".

Mario wants #90, Kelsays number. Can you imagine how many Mario Williams jerseys will eventually sell ?

Not exactly a ringing endorsement for long term employment, from where I'm sitting. Why not just say he's the RDE if he's in the immediate plans ?

This is now Wannys D and maybe he doesn't see him as a fit.

Stay tuned.

It'll either be Kelsay at RDE or mixture of Kelsay/Merriman depending on the situation.

Wherever Kelsay lines up, you'll see the opposing offense go after.

Re: Will Kelsay Be Dealt Soon ?

i think right now kelsay on 1st and 2nd down, and when its 3rd and long, merriman will come in.

now obviously obd will not count on merriman so like wanny said, and nix said before signing mario, they want 2 pass rushers...

i like jones in rd 2 imo... and i think jones could start right now and push kelsay to be a backup to mario for this year, but also getting lots of pt. this is probably kelsays last year on the team along with merriman.

chandler jones has incredible power and length along with great size, 6-5 270, real nice quickness. he would start for sure...

i think they see their backup dts as troup, carrington and heard... almost all 43 teams keep 5 dts and 4 des.

so maybe

jones/merriman
williams/carrington
dareus/troup/heard
m. williams/kelsay

kyle moore would probably replace merriman if he gets hurt again...

Re: Will Kelsay Be Dealt Soon ?

Kelsey has already agreed to give his number to Mario.

[NOT THE DUDE...]

Re: Will Kelsay Be Dealt Soon ?

Like i said, if jones is there in rd 2, he should be, then he will probably start making kelsay a rotational backup to mario...

i like dwan too... its just a numbers game man. they are not cutting troup, carrington or heard. aint happin

merriman and kelsay will be the main backup des

if merriman gets hurt, then they will probably call up kyle moore or some practice squad pass rusher with young legs..

We should trade CK for a 1st, (conditional) 3rd, and 6th round draft picks.

That seems fair to me.

Nah, I'd push for another first rounder; kind of like the RGIII trade. Players like Kelsay only come around once in a life-time.

"I'm a big believer that we're going to bring him in and we're going to put him at that left end, more than likely, and put his hand on the ground and make him a mainstay there," he said. "We've got to have him be a dominant position there in one spot."

Chris Kelsay, the Bills' second best edge rusher at the moment (until Shawne Merriman proves he's healthy), has played left defensive end most of his career. Wannstedt said he isn't worried about finding spots for the other rushers.

"We're gonna wait 'till after the draft and see what we end up with," Wannstedt said. "Then we'll look at our numbers and figure out how many we have at each position. We'll talk about what's the best fit for guys. We want to put guys in position where they can play fast and be most effective. Wherever we need to put people for them to be most effective, we'll do it. We're gonna give guys a chance to play fast, use their ability and make plays."

I don't think Kelsay will get dealt, but if he can't be effective on the right side this may be his last season in a Bill's uniform.

I thought you were supposed to put your best defensive end on the right side of the line so he is rushing the qb from the quarterbacks blind side. meaning of that that defensive end is going up against their teams left tackle.

Re: Will Kelsay Be Dealt Soon ?

Kelsey has been a good team player from day 1.

Mario likes the left side, is more comfortable on the left side, and the 'promise' to play him there I'm sure was a pretty big selling point so that's where he's going to line up for the most part.

And Mario is very effective playing on the left side which means a less talented DE should be effective on the right side. And if Merriman is healthy as he says he is WOW.

So when is the Bills first Monday night game?
