ABSOLUTELY. I have him in my mock draft.

[polgard]

If he lasts that long, that would be great.

[kdhammond]

I don't understand how this report suggests that he is durable. He broke his leg in 03, had a pin inserted and then
had a hairline fracture in the same leg in 04.

The knock on this guy IS his injury history.

[Mouldsie]

Not a huge fan

[FknGvna]

I'd take Germundsen first, Munoz second.

[JayHall93]

yup, ur correct. injury history, but also instant potential to be a starter

[TigerJ]

I don't know that his potential to start is "instant." He might need to get stronger before he can be effective. Still, he's in the mix of players that could help the Bills fill that LT spot down the road.

[Mouldsie]

No.


I want badasses on the OL.




"Not a nasty player and may lack that killer instinct."

RED FLAG!

Britt would be a steal even in round 2 for the Bills. There are alot of injury prone OLs out there and because of back, hip, shoulder, foot, or whatever problems they can't play. Britt will play unless his legs snap off. Unfortunately for him players rolled over on his legs twice and he broke something. His junior year the break was severe and he had to be carted off the field, ending his season. His senior year he played through the pain.

He is a 4 year starter and will spend a long time in the NFL. Will he be a star, probably not. But he'll be a solid starter somewhere. Thats what you want out of picks from rounds 2-7.

Better than a yellow flag. ;)

If you need a nasty attitude to get yourself motivated, that's okay. But if he gets the job done without it, why do you need it? :shiva:


Oh Alabama.
Can I see you and shake your hand.
Make friends down in Alabama.
I'm from a new land
I come to you and
see all this ruin
What are you doing Alabama?
You got the rest of the union
to help you along
What's going wrong?

Round 2?

Get outta here!

[FknGvna]

Has short arms which hurt him in pass protection.

Where else he gonna play? :ghost:
