[positional grouping] Bills Defensive Line

[Foxx]

For the Buffalo Bills, losing out on J.J. Watt wasn't the end of the world

... If Miller leaves the Broncos, who remain heavy favorites to work out a new contract with him or use the franchise tag, the Bovada sports book in Las Vegas has listed the Green Bay Packers (+500) as the frontrunners to land him, with the Cleveland Browns (+550) and the Bills (+600) not far behind.

 

So what exactly would the Bills be getting in Miller, as opposed to Watt?

 

A player who on the whole has produced sacks with the same frequency as Watt but doesn't measure up to Watt's ceiling in other areas.

 

Miller has 106 sacks in 135 career games, all starts. Watt has 101 sacks in 128 games, but has led the league in sacks twice, tackles for losses three times and forced fumbles once....

 

... So Watt's best is greater than Miller's best. That much is certain.

 

Miller is more than worthy of consideration, however.

 

He has produced double-digit sacks in seven of his nine seasons. He didn't play at all last year after an ankle injury in training camp required season-ending surgery. But before that, he had missed just seven games over a nine-year span. ...

Apparently I have a information gap here. What legal trouble is Von in?

Possible domestic violence.

Not as good as Jefferson, but younger (26) 

 

No numbers yet, but I assume the Bills will save a million or two.

Makes sense.  Butler knows there would be little demand for him.

Thinking our DL unit will see the most change

I like Addison as a rotational player, but we still need to upgrade on the edge.

Will be interesting to see what shape he comes back in. No doubt he's a process guy, so I'm hoping he put in the work during his season off.

Looks like Von Miller is staying in Denver

Looks like The Beane isn't satisfied with our line............

CBS Sports has been running a series of "best 5 players taken with pick XX." For pick 25, they have #1 as the best player taken: Ted Washington. While the Bills did not draft him, he did play for Buffalo from 1995-2000. His six years in Buffalo were his best.

Heard an interesting story about Washington a long time ago on the radio. I cannot remember which player it was, but he said Teddy gave him a ride home after practice. His car was full of fast food wrappers, which had to be cleared so the other player could sit.

 

Washington had something like $1,000,000+ in uncashed game checks just sitting amongst the piles of wrappers.
