For all the Bills fans reading this thread about their possible future franchise center, they need to know what a player Russell Bodine is. He’ll take their offense to another level.

Poor AJM now has to get ready to run for his life.

I want to laugh... but reserve that until we know Bodine is really gone.

Or maybe they are of the opinion that all of his best performances were behind Bodine, so they need to give him that "comfort level"?

Yep, he's a real gamer. Hasn't missed a start in 4 years.

Sure as the sun rising in the east Bodine will be elsewhere becoming an all pro center and ink the largest contract for a center ever and in a few short years everyone will be complaining about letting him get away . C'mon..you know that this is how things work in Bengalville.. ..

They're going to want all the money they donated to Dalton's foundation back.

Another level (or two) down that is.

C'mon man, won't you help our boy Russell find a new job?
He's currently out of work, and desperately needs to find a new home.

His whiff block technique against nose tackles allows him to get to the second level of the D in pass protection. If the QB can just get the ball out quick allowing the wideouts the ability for YAC.
This works expertly with 15 step drops, and qb pocket escapes.

Oh, Jebus, please let them be the ones. although, after what they've done for us, seems like a shitty way to say thanks. But I can live with the guilt.

He's the best ability you can ask for. Availability. Now sign him for enough so we get a third round comp pick for him!
