Sniper Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Should we reunite the Ryan Fitzpatrick and Terrell Owens combo? After all they did look pretty good. Now Fitz is a better player in a better offense. Owens Story
Sniper Posted October 19, 2011 Author Posted October 19, 2011 He's still better than Ruvell Martin Hahaha. So true.
Maddog69 Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) I'd have no problem bringing TO back. He's not a superstar anymore but I think he realizes that. He seemed to have a good rapport with Fitz. And I could proudly wear my T.O. throwback jersey again Edited October 19, 2011 by Maddog69
PromoTheRobot Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Okay we sign him. Then what happens in 2 weeks when Donald Jones is back? PTR
Chandemonium Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 I think it would be a good move with all the injuries we have at WR and the 4 wide sets that we run. Stevie, TO, Nelson, and Jones when he comes back would be a lot for other teams to handle all on the field at the same time. It would also allow Spiller to go back to RB and keep Ruevell Martin off the field except for special teams. Who would we cut to make the roster spot though? I hope not Namaan. With McGee back and Aaron Williams hopefully coming back soon we could probably sneak Wheatley back on the practice squad.

dwight in philly Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Hahaha. So true. i assume martin is on the squad for his special teams work, is he any good on them??, just curious.

U could probably tell the world u r cutting him, and still hear crickets in the background. He isn't a prize possesion. Not saying he couldn't be good, just saying he hasn't turned any heads and was released already and the bills were the only ones 2 bite.

WR is one of the positions we are set at. If we sign anyone it should be a defensive player. PTR Edited October 19, 2011 by PromoTheRobot
clearwater cadet Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 I think you only sign him if you think your team is a legit contender, and really only chan and buddy know that. If the bills feel they are legit, for a team that runs 4 and 5 receiver, set he would be at least better then your current then your 4th or 5th. If they don't feel like the team is legit then why bother, he will be gone next year and only ruin your draft order. Personally I feel thay are a good team, and they need another wide out with all the injuries they have. I don't think they would have traded Evans if they knew they were going to loss Roscoe and Easily for the year, and have Jones sidelined for 4-6 weeks.

Are you really interpreting my use of the word sneak as if I meant it would take some covert operation to get him back to the practice squad, or was that a poor attempt at humor? I was simply acknowledging that any time you cut a player you would like to keep, there is some element of risk involved. I also acknowledged that it would be unlikely for him to get picked up by saying that we could probably get him back on the practice squad.
1B4IDie Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Who gets cut? Ruvell Martin? You expect T.O. to cover punts and kickoffs? WR is one of the positions we are set at. If we sign anyone it should be a defensive player. PTR +100000 Noooooooo!!!!!!! Drop this idea like the majority of passes that hit T.O.'s hands. Nooooooo!!! And just think of Ruvell Martin as ST not WR. Chan gave him a chance to catch passes. He couldn't. He hasn't been out in offense since and he is doing a good job on STs. Special teams is important and Martin is playing well there.
AReed Deep For 7 Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Here is an outside the box idea. Sign him if for nothing more to teach our young guys the game in depth when needed. Him and StevieJ are buddies to this day and Stevie gives him alot of credit for what he learned from the vet guy, he had a good run with Fitz, was very classy when he left the organization. As long as he is clear on his role with the football team before he comes on board. What do you all think? Cheap signing too.
Sniper Posted October 19, 2011 Author Posted October 19, 2011 Terrence Wheatley would be the one cut with McGee and Williams coming back. Ruvell Martin is here to cover kicks. SIgning TO makes it so he is only here to cover kicks. And to the poster who asked, Marin is TERRIBLE on offense, he is actually a really good teams player though.

If we sign anyone it should be a defensive player. PTR Seriously, you guys are worrying about cutting Ruvell Martin? Give me a break. He has a total of 3 friggin' tackles. TDs are better than ST tackles. Any schmuck can play ST. Give me a HOF WR over a ST tackler any day. Thanks
Astrojanitor Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 i wouldn't be against it. He can stretch the field..probably get a couple defenders out of traffic. Would allow Fitz a little more room to make those short slant passes he's so successful with. A couple times a game we could probably expect a pretty huge gain if he only has to deal with man coverage. I could see TO being a difference maker in at least a couple games. If the price is right why not? But then if Buddy didn't go after him I don't think it would torpedo the season or anything.
GG Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Okay we sign him. Then what happens in 2 weeks when Donald Jones is back? PTR There's still room for both in the 5 wide.
Dont Stop BILL-ievin' Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Mixed emotions on this one. I like TO and he behaved when he was here. But like Chan said, we dont have Prima-Donna's on our team...he may ruin the chemistry of the offense.
rayray808 Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 why not go for it? we can get him for dirt cheap...
