Webster Guy Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 So now for TE we're left with a guy who 31 teams didn't offer a contract to, a guy who hasn't played in 2 years and a 7th rounder. TE is an important part of today's NFL and we have nothing Except the guy who caught the most passes on the team last year and is 6'7 with great hands.
T master Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 Yep... I was pretty eager to see it too. Me too ! I think he would have or could have been a great TE … When they said he bulked up & the possibility of him moving to the TE position with the history of the Bills moving players & being successful i was like YAH !! The kid has great hands & size i don't get why he didn't at least get a real chance to try out at that spot . But i emailed Chris Brown & he said he didn't see it happening , so good call i guess ??
#34fan Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 So, if Hackett fails you'll blame it on the release of a UDFA WR? Seriously? No. WHEN Nat Hackett fails it will be because he's a lousy OC. -Terrible, is actually closer to the truth. The Kaufman kid has awesome hands. The fact that Hackett has no place for that anywhere in his offense is a bad sign. I mean at least get the kid in TC, and see what happens... Four months out, I'm calling it proof of a flawed decision-making process. Or should I say further proof. Guess we'll see.

You actually think the OC makes the call on whether a player is on the roster or not? All this hand wringing over the twice released Kaufman is beyond hilarious. Oh, the Bills better hurry up and change their collective minds before some other team signs this emerging superstar.

I think they did get the kid in TC last year, and saw what happened.Of all the things to complain about with this team, you are choosing this?
thebandit27 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Everyone knows you're doomed when you cut the 5th string TE; a former UDFA that was cut & re-signed as a street FA because nobody wanted him, who never played the position, had to add 25 lbs to a WR frame, has zero NFL catches, and went undrafted despite playing at the FCS Mecca known as Eastern Washington.

This is why.
NoSaint Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I think they did get the kid in TC last year, and saw what happened.Of all the things to complain about with this team, you are choosing this? And then practices the last month of the season when he returned after no interest from anyone, and then spring workouts too. He's not a total unknown even though we haven't seen him. I think a lot of posters forget that.
mrags Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) Except the guy who caught the most passes on the team last year and is 6'7 with great hands. except that drop against Atlanta that guaranteed we lost that game in Toronto. ;-) And let's not forget that he is 6'7" and plays like he's Nathan Gerbe Edited May 18, 2014 by mrags

CountryCletus Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Who is Nathan Gerbe?? I'm sure I could just google it, but just too damn lazy...
Kirby Jackson Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) Who is Nathan Gerbe?? I'm sure I could just google it, but just too damn lazy... A little person that used to play for the Sabres Edited May 18, 2014 by Kirby Jackson

Except his fumble was a direct relation to the loss. Stevie's only cost us a win. Didn't guarantee a loss. Chandlers guaranteed a loss.
FireChan Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 yeah. Except his fumble was a direct relation to the loss. Stevie's only cost us a win. Didn't guarantee a loss. Chandlers guaranteed a loss. Pettine's glorious defense letting a dejected, nothing to play for Atlanta team score 21 straight also directly related to the loss.
bladiebla Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Bummer I like Kaufman his hands. Should have been a good NFL Europe project player, think he has a shot to make it to the roster somewhere guy just needs to get his shot/break like so many do.
