fairfaxbill Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Lee Evans having a good game for the Ravens tonight. Had a deep ball for 43 yards. 3 catches for 68 yards. Buddy should inquire about Evans to jump start the offense. Maybe they would take a 4th.
john Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 that sounds like the typical lee evans game from last season....2 or 3 catches for about 60 yards....including a 30 or 40 yarder. decent, but nothing to write home about. wish him the best of luck in baltimore becuase he is a class act and plays his heart out, but it was time for him to move on.
zow2 Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 I like Lee. I think he'll do well in B-more but the Bills would not have had one more win or one less loss with him on the team this year. I support Buddy and Chan trying something different...it was time to change it up.
john Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 forgot to add that it's gotten out that Lee wanted to be traded to a contender. his heart was no longer in buffalo. no one can blame him for that....but if he had stayed, knowing he was no longer the number one, no way his head would have been in every game. he needed to go.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Wouldnt be surprised if Lee were now the #1 there. if I had to pick one in fantasy football, i might take lee over boldin.
NewEra Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 I'd be shocked if he doesn't get 55-900-7 this year.

The Wiz Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 I hear you, but the 4th Rounder in 2012 has zero chance of helping us this yr. Also can't hurt us. Can't fumble, run backwards, drop the ball, etc. Just sayin
Scrappy Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Lee's over the hill & we need to go cheap, I mean young.
fairfaxbill Posted August 20, 2011 Author Posted August 20, 2011 Also can't hurt us. Can't fumble, run backwards, drop the ball, etc. Just sayin Sorry, I was talking about the Bills' 3rd best receiver of all time Lee Evans, not Shawn Nelson.

Mike in Syracuse Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Let me guess, 3 fly patterns? Did he get near the ball in the middle of the field?

coseybedaman Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Im sorry John, but the problem in Buffalo was never Lee Evans. Say what you want about him being the stereotypical number one receiver, but a guy who puts up 70 or so yards in the first quarter of a preseason game a week after joining the team is ok in my book. Unfortunately we will all see what he does with a respectable QB, and a solid franchise like Baltimore. Call me a pessimist, but its tough to get excited about David Nelson, Namaan Roosevelt, and Donald Jones. Its actually borderline embarassing. Draft Lee Evans in your fantasy football leagues if your smart because this guy finally has broken away from our horrid franchise, and can finally show his true abilities. I am very sad to see him go. This team is not loaded with stars, and Lee has been one for us for several years. yeah, thats exactly what i just did. you must be pretty quick on your feet to figure that out. no one is dumping on lee. we are just saying it was time for him to move on. he didn't want to play here any longer, fine. we are more than happy for you to go somewhere else. end of story. lee was never a bonified #1 and never will be. he has great deep speed and had showed flashes of being more well rounded but never more than just that..flashes. sorry to burst your bubble pal.
Nostradamus Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Let me guess, 3 fly patterns? Did he get near the ball in the middle of the field? Sounds like he got deep. Let's see if any of the Bills undrafted free agents from last season can do that. I'm not a big Evans fan, but he would have provided a dimension to our offense that I don't think anyone else on this team is capable of doing. Trading Evans was a cost-cutting move pure and simple... on a team that needed a lot of things, and cutting cost wasn't one of them.
Kelly the Dog Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Let me guess, 3 fly patterns? Did he get near the ball in the middle of the field? Yep. First pass was a 12 yard slant right to the middle. Second play was a great catch on the sideline. Third was a fly pattern on 3rd down. All three went for first downs and they were the only three passes thrown to him.
