Beane on The Pat McAfee Show Today
Mountain Man replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't think the issues have to be combined. You can appreciate him as a player, and what he brings to the sport whilst also not liking that hit. If you only praise players who have never done anything wrong, it's going to be a pretty short list -
Your 3rd RB needs to a special teamer, and that isn't Wade. If it wasn't for the exclusive rights and extra spot, he would be on a PS in the league at all. Yeah, let's get rid of an All Pro returner for a guy who has never returned kicks. In Rugby Union he played wing, not full back, so it's not he has experience from the 1 position in Rugby Union which is even remotely similar to an NFL returner

There is a pretty good inverse correlation between how regularly a team changes their uniform and how good the uniforms are.

Wade as the return man?
Mountain Man replied to buffalojedwardo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Or Antonio Williams. Who was suggested by Bleacher Report. He is a special teamer RB -

I thought Duke Williams was Brandon Reilly? -
Wade as the return man?
Mountain Man replied to buffalojedwardo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Who? Who are these mythical other return men? Hyde is fine for a safe catch, Mckenzie is a liability, so who are these return men you claim? It'd be a very short competition. So is Lionel Messi, and I don't want him as our returner either. Some people on this board are Brits who are rugby union fans so have watched Wade for years so know what he is capable of. -

If he played Full Back in Rugby you might have a point but he didn't, he played wing. Aside from an occasional up and under, he wouldn't have faced much kick returning -
Duke Williams Fred Jackson Comparison

And gadget players have value. Big slow WRs who drop the ball don't. Hodgins offers everything Williams does and a lot more. -
Duke Williams Fred Jackson Comparison
Mountain Man replied to akcash's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think its closer to WR9. I'm no Mckenzie fan, but he's clearly ahead. Roberts is a virtual lock as our only good returner. Foster actually has production unlike Williams and Hodgins has style similarities but is younger and can actually catch. -
Duke Williams Fred Jackson Comparison
Mountain Man replied to akcash's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think a better Brandon Reilly 2.0 is a better comparison. A fan favourite for a portion of the fan base with little to deserve it. I agree, he was far better hands and body control. With his age I don't see them keeping Williams around on the PS either. -
Anyone who doesnt rate Matt Schaub 32 hasn't watched Matt Schaub in the last 5 years. That list is a joke. AJ McCarron above Barkley? The importance of knowing something about football if you are creating power rankings shouldn't be understated. You would get a better list if the names had been selected at random

The more interesting RB debate for me is the suggestion on a Bleacher Report UDFA article that Antonio Williams could take Yeldon's spot. It'd save over 1m in cap space and Williams is a special teams guy which is a big help for your RB3 https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2890548-every-nfl-teams-undrafted-free-agent-most-likely-to-make-their-2020-roster

Was he? That's not how I remember him. He was a very efficient 1 cut runner, who had decent speed and power. But exciting? Not really. He was a solid complimentary back. That's all
-
Maybe. Let's get Dri Archer to be our return guy whilst we're at it.

Brady and the Bucs get 5 Primetime games
Mountain Man replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'd rather watch the Buccs with the likes of Evans and Godwin that watching rubbish like the Cowboys or Giants -
[Vague Title] Worth a look in my book...
Mountain Man replied to Mij yllek's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's a no from me. We need all the cap space we can get to pay players and with other teams having a lot of space still, he'll get paid big by someone like the Jets or Dolphins. He's a good player, but sometimes it's the wrong deal for the current situation -
Let someone else take a chance on him. The Bills have changed, they no longer need to go taking chances on old FAs who have done nothing for years. Signings like Karlos Williams as a FA belong in a different era

Opinions on a hypothetical trade
Mountain Man replied to offsides#76FredSmerlas's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not a chance. Green has been injury after injury in recent years -
Not surprising. They are going to have enough challenges trying to figure out the Premier League backlog without the NFL in the mix.
-
The fact he has been a captain for the Bills shows they clearly DO place a value on his leadership
-
How do you know? It's a relatively young roster that has lost a number of experienced veterans in recent years
-
Maybe some people just would like to judge the evidence as they see it. People can respect experienced voices but equally challenge them. In this era more than ever before, information is used as a tool, positively and negatively, so it's entirely reasonable for people not to accept everything they hear on a topic such as this without challenge

Jersey Numbers for the new guys
Mountain Man replied to SlimShady'sSpaceForce's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I quite like the Epenesa choice, it's like a torch passing from Lorenzo Alexander.
