Buffalo Bills offensive line

by Steve

It is preseason buttt is anyone else not sold on the Bills offensive line? Basically the question boils down to one thing. Would a better LT, specifically Levi Jones, improve the Bills offensive line that immensely?

First, there has to be a reason no one else has signed this seemingly inept albatross. But it is the same NFL where former Super Bowl winning coaches like Parcells, Dungy, Billick, and Grueden are unemployed. There are stereotypes and perpetual prognostications that run supreme in this multi billion dollar business. Is Levi Brown really not deserving of a starting LT spot in the NFL. I say not, which expedites the arguement.

Sign Jones, who would cost probably like $3 million (hey it isn't my money). That would allow the Bills to move mediocre (at best) LT Walker back to his above average and more natural position RT. That would in turn move Butler back to RG and allow Wood to solidify his position at Center, his natural position.

Fine Wood wouldn't "beat out" Hangartner at center, in reality he is better but money talks especially in an inept org like the Bills. Either way we win cause Hangartner can play center and guard as can Wood. Wood is better at center and thus improves the offensive line play.

At this point, put me in the corner wishing we sign Jones. Having Jones, Levitre, Wood and or Hangarter,Butler and Walker as the official offensive line for 9/14/09 is what I would enjoy. The only problem with this and most suppositions/logic used in regards to the Bills is these things aren't even considered. We have a 90+ year old owner, a non GM GM and an albatross of a coach that 90%+ of the fans dislike. 7-9 again.
