Don't forget, Mike Williams is not fat. Nails is more fat than Williams.

Yeah, it may be but how long do you think he can keep that weight off? The buffet table is the first place he'll head to. It was noted around the NFL that Mike Williams was mostly muscle and bulk, and he had a small rate of fat.

I remember reading Williams' profile on http://www.sportingnews.com/ before it cost $$$. They said his weakness was that he spent too much time at McDonalds and not enough in the gym.

I think it is so funny that the Bill's fans are upsessing over our 3rd string guard. The guy obviously has yet to put his heart in to his NFL career, but since he has dropped 40 lbs and has been giving it his all this off season Dave decided to invite him to camp. Worst case scenario he starts to slack and doesn't show any talent in training camp, oh well Miami has to find another guy to back up their backs ups. Best case scenario he keeps showing the same dedication, and challenges for a roster spot.

I know that some of you are all excited and maybe a little intrigued by Nails size, much like we were when the Bills had him but the reality of it is, and you will find out sooner or later, Nails isn't that good. Think about it for a minute, we had the worst OL in the NFL and he couldn't even stick in that lineup. I can't tell you how many times I use to watch this guy get slapped up aside of his head by a defender half his side and all that he would do was look for a soft spot on the turf to land. The difference between him and Mike Williams is that MW has a meanstreak in him a mile long and Nails has the demeanor of an 80 year old lady overdosing on Valium. You will see in time. It isn't as much about rededication and dropping 60 LBs as it is having the atitude to want to pancake some D-lineman and get the job done...something that JN has always sorely lacked. Who knows, maybe not being able to eat for a couple of months maybe pissed him off and he might be meaner now.

I don't think that was the case, I saw a few of those games and he was the only thing on your o line doing anything, as the year went on, I guess he figure why work hard we're not going anywhere..Also we'd drop him because of weight, you guys picked him up overweight, so he definitely wasn't at his best. Wanny will drop him like a hot pancake, if he doesn't stay in control of his weight..I think he knows that this time around..at least he should have learn from his last trip to Miami.

Sorry, but I am not "upsessing=obsessing". I only am responding to everyone else on this thread that has him penciled in as a starter. You are the only one that seems to have him penciled in way down the depth chart next to the waterboy. You are probably going to find that Spriggs is a better all around player than Nails of the two ex-Bills.
