Heading into the 2018 season Color Rush Dawson Knox Jersey , the Buffalo Bills knew they faced a daunting task trying to replace the production of center Eric Wood and left guard Richie Incognito. The team struggled to reach the same level of play those two stalwarts along the offensive line previously provided in sinking to a 6-10 record after making the playoffs in 2017. Fast forward another offseason, and the Bills once again are faced with major questions along the offensive line, especially at the two guard positions, where Buffalo received below-average play from starters John Miller (right guard) and Vladimir Ducasse (left guard). On a unit that Pro Football Focus ranked as the 26th-best offensive line in football, new offensive line coach Bobby Johnson is going to have his hands full trying to bolster a unit that finished with the next-to-last grade in PFF’s run-blocking grades. Miller has been an on-again, off-again starter at right guard since being drafted in the third round of the 2015 NFL Draft out of Louisville, appearing in 47 games (all starts) over his four years in Western New York. Miller, who is an unrestricted free agent, made 15 starts in 2018, allowing only one sack and four penalties. On this unstable line Youth Dawson Knox Jersey , re-signing Miller to a low, mutually-agreed upon two-year extension might be the wise move, for Miller has proven himself to be capable when he’s on the field. Ducasse, who enjoyed a resurgence at right guard in 2017, moved back to left guard for the 2018 season, with less-than-desirable results. He appeared in ten games (nine starts) and was part of an underachieving left side of the line that, time and time again failed to open holes for Buffalo’s running backs. Ducasse graded out at a 49.8 according to Pro Football Focus, good for 67th among all eligible guards. He committed four penalties and, remarkably, did not allow a sack. Unlike Miller Womens Dawson Knox Jersey , he is still under contract for 2019.Ryan Groy, who started six games at center and can also play guard, is an unrestricted free agent who allowed three quarterback hits and eight hurries (zero sacks allowed) in his time at center. Rookie Wyatt Teller, entering his second season, displayed a ton of promise in eight games (seven starts), allowing only eight quarterback pressures with no sacks and five committed penalties. The fifth-round draft pick proved himself capable in pass protection, though his run-blocking has room for improvement. Jeremiah Sirles, who recently inked a one-year contract extension with Buffalo for the 2019 season, was active in 12 games (five starts) and saw time at both tackle and guard. He is a swingman who is expected to compete for a roster spot in training camp. He could start in a pinch but shouldn’t be handed the job.Lastly, there’s Ike Boettger Authentic Dawson Knox Jersey , an undrafted rookie free agent out of Iowa who spent the entire off-season, training camp and the pre-season with the Bills. After serving as Buffalo’s backup right guard, he was released before the regular season. Boettger eventually released by the Kansas City Chiefs and claimed on waiver by the Bills and appeared in the team’s last four games. Miller (if he re-signs) and Teller appear to be the best in-house bets to start at guard for a team that could use an infusion of talent in 2019, but don’t rule out Ducasse sticking around. ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Kyle Williams thought he had experienced close to every emotion before wrapping up his 13th and final NFL season.Turns out, there was room for one more before the Buffalo Bills defensive tackle entered retirement.With his team standing at midfield during pregame introductions, Williams was introduced last and got a standing ovation. It was when Williams entered the field that he noticed his wife, Jill, and their five children standing beside his teammates.Then came the tears.“I didn’t know that was going to happen,” Williams said. “I get past the goalposts and I see my family and I lost it. I’m fairly certain that that’s the first time I’ve openly boo-hooed inside the cage of a football helmet. And it will be the last Dawson Knox Jersey Boys , so first and last happened today. Just grateful, grateful for everything.”That reception, along with an actual 9-yard reception on offense in the fourth quarter — another first — in a dominant season-ending 42-17 win over the Miami Dolphins resulted in the ideal send-off for the 35-year-old player considered the heart and soul of the Bills over the last decade.“It is special for this team and this city to see how we played and how we wanted to play for him and send him out the way that we did,” said Bills quarterback Josh Allen, who had five touchdowns (three passing, two rushing).Williams announced his decision to retire on Friday. The former fifth-round pick blossomed to become a dominant presence in Buffalo, earning five trips to the Pro Bowl while becoming a fan favorite thanks to his tireless work ethic.His final game featured a little of everything.Williams had one tackle for a loss — stuffing running back Kalen Ballage for a 3-yard loss in the first quarter — as part of a dominant defensive effort that resulted in four sacks and two interceptions.He was brought onto the field as part of a goal-line package and used as a decoy on Allen’s 1-yard plunge to open the scoring in the opening minutes of the first quarter.Then, in the closing minutes of the fourth, Williams made his first career reception to raucous applause.The Bills then took the unusual measure of taking a timeout after a fourth-down kneel with 1:19 remaining so Williams could get a final curtain call from the fans, who chanted “Thank you White LeSean McCoy Jerseys , Kyle!” in unison.“You don’t have those opportunities a lot to be able to do that,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said. “I know it’s more of a basketball type of deal, but to be able to put the defense back out there one more time it was more important to me that we honor Kyle’s career than it was to score potentially another touchdown.“I wanted to do it the right way.”Williams capped the day by circling the field to greet and say goodbye to the fans, many of whom wore his No. 95 jersey.“It was spontaneous,” Williams said. “I was giving some people some fives on the way in and thanking them and it just really got to me — well, I can’t do a 10-yard section and not hit the whole place. So I also made a lap with my kids and they had an opportunity to enjoy it.”His three sons then followed him into the locker room, where they sat at Williams’ stall sipping Gatorade while waiting for their dad to shower and change.Williams finishes his career with 48½ sacks in 183 games — the most by a Bills defensive tackle.And he went out in style for someone who arrived in Buffalo not wanting to seek attention.Williams was difficult to miss on Sunday.“Yeah, the whole thing has been a little out of my comfort zone,” Williams said. “It was a great day. My family enjoyed it. My kids enjoyed it. We all get to enjoy it because we won.”
