Question about Geoff Hangartner from a Bills Fan

[Gswj23richardson]

Hey guys...just decided to register and see what you guys think of Hangartner.

I'm a huge Bills fan, and have realized that after the trade of Peters that this line is gonna be completely rearranged. Talks have been that Hangartner is likely gonna be at center, but it may depend on Eric Wood (Our #28 draft pick) being able to adapt to guard.

Just wanted to get your opinion about having Hangartner as a starter on our line. I saw he only started 8 games last season, but how did he do? Solid player?

Let me know, thanks alot.

always solid and filled in incredibly whenever he did. was a favorite down here. we're gonna miss him but he wasn't going to get a starting job here but he deserved to get one somewhere.

replacing him is hard to do. he's a good guy that plays hard and nasty and does everything 100%.

You'll like him... I hate we lost him, and really think he could've started for the Panthers... He's a solid player, with excellent smarts... I can't blame him for wanting to start, and we couldn't pay him what he deserved... Good pickup for the Bills... You'll be happy with him...

I was actually surprised you drafted a center but then again GH can play either guard or Center. He was a hidden gem from the 5th round in 05. It will be interesting to see him in a different uniform when you come to BofA stadium in the fall.

I personally prefer GH at guard. When Kalil was out last season the opposition defense seemed to have our number a little bit with the snap counts and I can only assume it is little manerisms of Geoffs that gave it away. Not saying it hurt us incredibly, but I think, as a solid player you get the best of him at guard.

Despite that he is an incredibly intelligent guy and if he is working full time at centre (he flip flopped to guard and centre for us A LOT), then he has the smarts and the determination to iron out any weaknesses of his.

He is an excellent return man.

he is an excellent return man.

rofl!!!!

[PrimeTyme]

he was a great guy, wish we could have kept him

he is secretly the best LB in the NFC, perhaps even the NFl...

dont miss use him on the offensive line like we did.. demand that he starts middle LB, you won't regret it... the man is money

I've been wondering if they would have given him the starting RG job if it wasn't for the fact that we had no cap space.

[crunkpanther]

My take is that he wasn't the most powerful guy out there. I don't think he's a huge asset in the run game.

Overall I'd say I don't think he excels at any aspect of the game, but neither is he terrible in any. I think his main asset is his versatility and that he's a competitor. He's probably not going to dominate anyone, but he's not going to just get abused either.

For you guys, he's a good pickup. He can be part of a solid line.

Gswj23richardson is a really bizarre handle

[Kyle82]

He was a solid back-up here and a salary cap casualty....you guys got a great player.

best kicker we had
