Message: [QUOTE="JeremyCuse, post: 4786830, member: 43"] Rousseau's injury doesn't appear to be long term. Not sure on Benford but don't think his is either. Both should be back soon maybe even Sunday. Getting Miller back was nice but getting him back full go will be great, could have used him in the 2nd half but he was on a pitch count. DE position has real nice depth now with Miller back, Jonathan, Epenesa, Rousseau, Floyd etc. Jones is a massive loss and I hope Buffalo will consider extending him even with the injury, he was great until the pec injury. Buffalo does have Poona Ford who has been inactive I think every game this year, gotta think he slides right in. Losing that practice squad guy to Atlanta last week is less then stellar timing but with Settle, Oliver and Ford that's a pretty good trio, plus add in Jordan Phillips and I think Vickers on the PS you still have a pretty good group. Secondary is tough one. Really need Benford back. I know people are looking for a trade but not sure how realistic that is. I think Dane and Benford can hold it down but obviously another injury and your in major trouble and Benfords hurt now. Tough call Milano can't be replaced and is a bigger loss then Tre. I though Williams looked pretty good in pass coverage but he struggled against the run and missed multiple tackles before he was pulled for Dodson who I thought played fairly well but I think is a tad slow for the position full time. Buffalo does have options here. Spector the other LB who is on IR is supposedly close to ready to come back and Dodson as noted at least looked serviceable out there. Williams would seem to be the key guy here, the question is can he get up to speed fast enough. Clearly the talent is there and he's been practicing behind Milano so he knows the position. Not sure there is a move here for Buffalo to make, maybe you see if Kirksey wants to un retire but beyond that a trade seems unlikely but maybe Beane gets aggressive. On offense I do think Benae has to make a move at WR. Current group is not working. I think you have to get Isabella active and look to see what is out there via a trade if anything. I like Davis but he disappears for long long stretches and had another brutal drop yesterday. Sherfield has been non-existent since the Miami game and the slot position has been a ghost town even with Shakir and Harty seeing time. Much like CB not sure there's a trade that jumps out but maybe you call Denver about Sutton or Wash about Dotson or Carolina about Thielen or Oakland about their Slot guy whose name escapes me.
