Kiko Alonso progressing

No now, obviously. Which is the silver lining of Kiko getting hurt. They got Brown, and he's played, and shown he's probably the steal of the draft for the Bills.

Remember when the Bills' linebackers used to be so crappy? I don't miss those days.

Eddie Robinson... oh god, that just killed my morning wood.

Just to clarify, they didn't draft Brown BECAUSE Kiko was injured. The injury happened AFTER the draft. I believe the plan was/is to groom Brown behind Spikes.

So far we haven't seen Brown took running down MLB role yet since Spikes hasn't missed a game in that role. I didn't like what I saw from the Vikings game where Brown missed tackles on their RB running to the edge (btw Spikes had a bad game shedding blocker in that one as well). But his coverage skill has improved noticeably week 1 to week 8.

When Kiko comes back next year, we may have two top notch 3 down linebackers who can handle multiple TE sets and RB out of back fields.

This is his second ACL tear I believe, that doesn't exactly inspire confidence in his ability to stay healthy. I'd be much more comfortable re-signing Spikes and having all four LBers (w/Bradham, Brown and Kiko) going into next season.

He looked small and out of shape in that video.

I guess that's why Brown was asking him if he also worked on his upper body.
