Nanker Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 (edited) Mazi reminded me a bit of Darius. I’d pass. Bresee is interesting. A bit of a development prospect, but seems coachable. Edited April 15, 2023 by Nanker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ann Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Bills Senior Defensive Assistant and Defensive Line Coach Eric Washington addresses the media following OTA practice on Tuesday, May 30th. Topics include: the role Defensive Tackle Poona Ford will play in the defense, what he learned about the defensive lien after Linebacker Von Miller’s injury last season, the growth of the Bills young players, and what he’s seen from Head Coach Sean McDermott as he’s taken over play calling duties for the defense. Eric Washington: “Continue to be Productive” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned here or way back ATOP that Floyd should be on the radar. Just what the Bills needed, an inexpensive experienced pass rusher who can still hit the 8-10 sack range this year. Some 'Von Insurance' and will help push the young guys. Once Von Miller is back the DL rotation with him and Poona Ford added is looking really good. Nice mix of vets, young guys, guys on the rise (Rousseau/ Oliver) guys on the slide and just general big nasty proven guys on the IDL. Very happy with the pick up. Between Miller/ Floyd and Rousseau there are three potential double digit sack guys on the team. Phillips got very close to that in this scheme when healthy too. I also think Ford is a nice rotation piece with Jones and helps keep the investment in Oliver productive. Settle has flashed in the past and I'm hoping for a better season from him as well. I wouldn't be surprised if a DL gets traded for a mid level pick (4-6th) Overall very happy with the DL moves this offseason.

SquirminThurman Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 4th and 1 or 4th and goal and the Bills can line up Von Miller/ D Jones/ P Ford/ Floyd.... yes I'll take those chances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Settle has an over $5M dead cap hit if he gets cut but I think you're right, at least one pretty good NFL DT isn't making this roster. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, a productive DL may not make the roster. I wasn't thinking cut as much as a trade with Settle because I think he has 5-6th round trade value. Solid IDL/S can be found in those rounds. Looking at OTC Settle has a post June 1st (we are already there!) trade of Settle yielding a $2.7 million cap hit this year. He has a voidable year in 2024 which will cost the Bills 1.35 million regardless of what they do, and the bonus he is owed this year, but it would also save $2.9 million against the cap this year and gain the pick. It's a nice problem to have too many solid and very good DL. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is interesting is both Floyd and Von Miller can play on the line, in a tight or wide set, or play off ball. Really gives McDermott some flexibility with very productive players. There are so many combos the defense can employ. Rapp gives some hybrid S/LB looks too, and he is a terrific tackler. The Defense looks really good and very flexible. I hope McDermott has a lot of fun and is aggressive with this personnel. 5 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on the same page here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
