[edited title] Robert Foster, UDFA - Roster shot?
MrEpsYtown replied to Bronxbomber21's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I hear you but I disagree. Receiver is one of the worst positions on this team. The only locks to me are Benjamin and Jones. Holmes probably makes it for special teams. I think Kerley makes it as well. Foster, Proehl, McCloud are competing with guys like Streater, Reilly, Dupre to make the team for the last 2/3 spots. I would not exactly call that a longshot. Plus Beane used draft picks on Proehl and McCloud and the Proehl pick was a sticking point in the Josh Allen trade. I think they ultimately keep: KB Jones Kerley ? Holmes ? Proehl Foster McCloud Typically, they keep six, but I am keeping seven To me, McCloud is a return man who can play some reciever and be the third running back as well. I think he makes the team on versatility. -
Tony Garcia OT Released By Pats
MrEpsYtown replied to starrymessenger's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think McDermott is the more interesting player with a better chance to make it at this point. Garcia was considered somewhat undersized at tackle going into the draft and he often played at like 280. Losing 40 pounds is pretty significant. I'd take a shot on the guy for sure, but he has an uphill battle in front of him, hasn't played a down and is already 24 years old. Older, small school player, who is undersized and coming off a significant weight loss is a long shot. But I like his potential and he is certainly worth a look. -
Haha! This is a huge debate apparently http://scienceline.ucsb.edu/getkey.php?key=6097 Being a liquid, water is not itself wet, but can make other solid materials wet. Wetness is the ability of a liquid to adhere to the surface of a solid, so when we say that something is wet, we mean that the liquid is sticking to the surface of a material.

100% Bryant. He's got the size, and the speed really isn't much different. Maclin is frail and his injuries are numerous. His decline has been much sharper than Bryant's. Plus he turned us down last year so f him.

I think the Foster kid has a real chance at reciever. He has to beat out the Streater, Reilly, Dupri types. I think Wallace or Carter could make the team at corner. They just need to beat out Pitts and Borders. Mat Boesen, who no one is talking about can play. He can get sacks, just a little undersized and would likely be a great special team player. Uphill battle, but he has a chance, probably have to beat out Fede or maybe someone like Vallejo. The linemen we are talking about have a chance because our depth there really isn't great. I think there is a chance one of them makes it. Obviously they wont all make it, but I could see some of these guys making the team for sure.

My understanding is it only applies if the player is released. The offset language basically says that they would have to pay back a portion of their bonus if they get released and sign with another team. Basically limits future earnings.

RB Kenjon Barner visiting Bills
MrEpsYtown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I still think Shane Vereen makes sense as a #3 with all of his experience in the Pats system. Another name I like, Orleans Darkwa from the Giants. He would make an interesting #3, has some potential and was originally signed as a UDFA by Dennis Hickey when he was with the Dolphins. -
Blake Bortles - catcher of bad guys
MrEpsYtown replied to stuvian's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The line did do a terrible job of containing the pocket, but once he breaks the pocket, it is the job of the next level of defense to go ahead and stop him before the sticks. The DL did a bad job, but Bortles running for 30 yards instead of 7 is specifically on Brown and Humber imo. But like you said, regardless those runs should not have happened. With a new MIKE running 4.5, I doubt that happens to us again. -
This survey needs some more A-Train, Xavier Omon, and Lionel Gates. Conspicuous by his absence, no Shawn Bryson?

Blake Bortles - catcher of bad guys
MrEpsYtown replied to stuvian's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I will always blame him and Ramon Humber. The secondary guys are all covering receivers deep and the lineman are trying to get a sack. When he's breaking the pocket the linebackers need to make sure those runs are 7 yard runs, not 30 or 40 yard runs. I will always blame our slow linebacker and our gun shy quarterback for that loss. -
Welcome! According the over the cap, we have a bout 19 million in cap space, which does not include the contracts for Allen and Edmunds. Realistically, we could probably add a guard like Joeckel, maybe a depth linebacker and a wide receiver and that would be about it. Most teams have spent a lot, so we are higher up the chain in terms of cap space in the NFL right now. In a perfect world we add Bowman, Joeckel, Bryant, but not sure that is very realistic.

MrEpsYtown replied to stuvian's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Oh so Bortles was the guy tackling Mayfield in that video? No wonder Preston Brown couldn't catch him in that playoff game. -
RB Kenjon Barner visiting Bills
MrEpsYtown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There is something to be said for a guy who just won a Super Bowl and was returning kicks in that game. Could be an interesting #3 change of pace, special teams guy. -
Do you guys realize that the "I've heard of him, git r done" comments are actually significantly more annoying than the person recommending the team look into a player who was released?
-
Most people assume Daboll is bringing more of a power running scheme. Multiple tight ends, full backs, power and gap plays etc. It's what he has always done at different stops in New England, Miami, KC, Cleveland. I guess no one knows definitely, but it seems like that is where things are going.
-
They aren't going to release him so he can go sign with some other team. I'm sure he is welcome back at the agreed upon discounted rate if he wants to come back. It is the same as the Boldin situation last year. He's either got to be a Bill or stay retired.
-
C'mon man...guys like Richie are asked to take pay cuts all of the time. He's old, his play is declining, and they must feel like they can replace his production. It happens all of the time, and it is why you see dudes like Dez Bryant on the open market. This isn't anything new. Pro Bowl also means nothing.

Caption the Photo: Brady at the Met Gala

"Man, I really feel like kissing my son on the mouth right now." -
Beadles has been an okay player for a number of years. He was a bust in Jacksonville as a big free agent signing and I think it is because he is a poor fit for power running teams. He really excelled as a zone based lineman because finesse and speed is more his game than power. I very much prefer Joeckel or Boone, but if they aren't happy with the LG spot, this guy makes some sense.
-
If he's healthy I'd give him a shot. I know everyone complains about the "I heard of him" posts. The guy has had subpar production the last few years which just so happens to be better than the tight end production we have gotten for last, oh maybe 20 years. Runs a 4.5 and is very large. Seems like he was pressing to live up to his lofty contract. You can't love Brandon Reilly and Nick O'Leary and say this guy sucks. If if you don't like talking about released guys who get cut, you guys better buckle up because: A. A bunch of dudes will get released over the next month. B. Our GM specifically stated that he saved cap space for these very moments. Just sayin.
