26CornerBlitz Posted June 20, 2014 Author Posted June 20, 2014 Woods is going to have a breakout season this year and show that we got two 2nd round steals in last year's draft. He and EJ already demonstrated excellent chemistry last season. I really expect him to be EJ's best and most reliable receiver this season. He really should change his user name. I suggest 'Wire Service'. Thanks Man.
Mark Vader Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 He and EJ already demonstrated excellent chemistry last season. I really expect him to be EJ's best and most reliable receiver this season. Thanks Man. This is why it's so vital that Manuel plays an entire season. We are all excited about Sammy Watkins, but this is just as big a season for Robert Woods as well. I also have to say, good job 26CB.

LB3 Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 He and EJ already demonstrated excellent chemistry last season. I really expect him to be EJ's best and most reliable receiver this season. I think it's because he runs really good routes and has great hands. My favorite Woods catch all year was the two point conversion he caught against Carolina. It was a quick slant and the throw was designed to be low and away so he'd have to dive to catch it. Super tough catch that he made look easy.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Is not that will kill you... It's the humidity. In Buffalo, there is no humidity.
Deranged Rhino Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 To add to the Woods love, the guy is only going to get better. I'm not a huge USC fan, but they're everywhere here in LA and he was always a professional even in college in terms of how he approached his work. This guy's ceiling is very, very high.

I'm not a huge USC fan, but they're everywhere here in LA and he was always a professional even in college in terms of how he approached his work. This guy's ceiling is very, very high. He's one of those guys who won't necessarily "wow" you with measurables or jaw-dropping plays like Watkins but he is very polished in his technique in the WR role at a young age. This was an great read pre-draft last year:http://mattwaldmanrsp.com/2013/04/21/boiler-room-series-usc-wr-robert-woods/ I absolutely loved this pick last year. He is exactly the kind of guy who EJ can trust in the slot.
Kirby Jackson Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) I look at Woods as a guy that will be really good for a really long time. I don't think that his ceiling is incredibly high but his floor is. I could see the guy having 5-7 1,000 yard seasons. He is going to be consistent for a long time. Woods is really polished. He is kind of a glue guy. You know exactly what you have in him and can expect that each week. Woods kind of reminds me of those Spurs guys (like Diaw). Every game they will help you but rarely dominate. Edited June 20, 2014 by Kirby Jackson

I was very glad to see him slide to Buffalo. People forget, mainly because of how spectacular Marqise Lee's freshman season was, how good Woods was against Stanford (and overall) as a frosh. His bum ankle cost him his last year in terms of numbers, but even on a bum wheel and no QB to get him the ball he still put up numbers.

I just think he's going to end up being a probowler, more than once, when his career is done. Love the Boris reference! Long live Boris!

Long live Boris! he is kind of like the James Lofton vis a vis Andre Reed (who will presumably be Watkins). Unless Mike Williams usurps that role.
26CornerBlitz Posted June 20, 2014 Author Posted June 20, 2014 Hopkins kicks well He’s seen by most outside the building at One Bills Drive as a potential kickoff specialist for Buffalo with Dan Carpenter signing a sizable free agent deal with the Bills this offseason. But Dustin Hopkins is working to make the place kicking job a stiff competition as well. On the last day of minicamp Hopkins may have provided a sign of things to come.
Mark Vader Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Outstanding catch with body control (and clutch throw)! http://www.nfl.com/v...oint-conversion I remember that play vividly. The way he dove for that catch and maintained possession..... After that, I thought that the more opportunities you give this guy, then he could be someone special for us.

I predicted that tuel might leapfrog lewis, and it looks like that could be the case. I think we will see the game experience that he (and Lewis) got last year will be invaluable.
