    We aren't problematic at FB but Kuhn would be a solid upgrade. 2 time pro bowler and top 5 lead blocker last year...

    FB isn't a sexy position, but we haven't had a true FB since Tony Richardson.

    I think the Bills are going with 6 FBs this year, maybe he'll end up over there

    Always been a huge Kuhn fan. Much rather have him than Tommy or the "Terminator"

    I'd take him in a minute, does Gailey's offense call for much at FB tho?

    I didn't even know he was a FA.

    The Packers are re-signing him though. I read that a few hours ago.

    In Gailey's system I would rather see a Tommy Bo or Tyler Varga as the #4RB who can do a little lead blocking and catch out of the backfield.

    As long as we never have to see Conner again

    "In Gaileys System" its like the first Sega Geneis while everyone else is using PS4.I hate old offensive coordinators I hope this guy works out...... he's been out of the league for a few years

    Tommy has been pretty solid for us.

    I'm skeptical about him cuz of his age definitely but your game system comparisons are pretty dumb. Hopefully they went into this knowing he'll probably be grooming the next OC in the wings, but is not like he is running the Navy offense, he likes the spread and that's the same offense that is being used for some really high powered offenses in the NFL.

    I would of liked either someone new or a younger up and coming guy.Tony Sparano failed,Marty M failed,I have a feeling Gaileys gonna be on that list to.Shotty had the most success out of all the OCs we have had the last 5 years

    He could develop into a good player. I'd rather stick with the young guy.

    Yeah there's definitely a plus there too. I don't hate bohanan at all. He's been pretty good.

    This is false, although they almost are guaranteed to re-sign him eventually he's still a free agent.

    I thought The Terminator played ok last season after they brought him back but can he really block? Anyways I just checked the current roster on my their website and apparently he was cut.

    Personally I thought he improved some. I like my FB to be big, physical and the ability to lay defenders out.

    Not sure how much Gailey uses FBs in his spread offense. I know he runs the spread so my guess is FBs aren't a priority.

    When Connor was first brought back after Bohanon went down they almost never used him as a pass receiver or running. But later on they did and he was productive. But they must have watched the film and decided to cut him so probably they weren't impressed with his main job which was blocking. He's played with at least 3 teams: the Jets, the Bengals and the Giants.

    I thought Bohanon was an immediate improvement over Conner, and Hilliard. Bohanon being an improvement over the 'Terminator' means little tho. But TB wasn't bad, he made some mistakes, he did some good things too tho.
    Watching The Terminator his first time around was fuckin scary...almost cost me a tv, he was a horror show
