We're in a no-lose situation, if we bid high & Miami matches it then Miami will be strapped going forward. If Miami doesn't match, then Clay is ours.

I wouldn't mind seeing us pull in Blalock too.

A tight situation indeed.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Clay back in Buffalo this weekend, with his family, to sign.

Andrew Dice?

I live in the Bay Area and the idea that roman is tightend crazy is just not right. He barely used Davis last year http://www.nfl.com/player/vernondavis/2495826/careerstats, he's more of a fullback/Hback guy. He likes roll out passes coupled with play action. Lots of slants and vertical routes some deep outs. Might favor EJ a lot. Not many slow developing deep crosses from the pocket like Marrone...err uh Hackett called. I'd bet that he likes Grey a lot. Not saying he wouldn't like Clay

Or chandler was out either way?

At best he was a bubble player, I think. Just not a good mix for Roman. He desires the kind of versatility that Clay has.

 

GO BILLS!!!

Mark Gaughn of the Buffalo News. Any deeper meaning behind it or just a throwaway comment?

 

@gggaughan: At least the Browns have Thad Lewis.

Looks like he's just making fun of the browns.

Clay is basically that HB/TE that you are talking about in Romans offense. Which is probably why they rely want to get him.

I think what you described is exactly why he does want Clay. Watch some videos of Clay, he is not a typically tight end at all. He's slightly undersized to be the Gronk-nobody can stop me-type. Miami actually lined him up as a HB and FB on occasion and he carried the ball out of the backfield successfully. He can do that while also lining up as a TE and he's fast enough to get open on inside slant routes and such. Roman wants him because of his versatility and the misdirection we can use him for.

i agree I think Clay along with Grey will make Roman happy as long as we add a blocking TE (cheap free agent or draft)

As a traditional TE1, Clay is maybe just above average. But in Romans scheme, he is a key cog, a great fit, evidenced by reports of him being their #1 target in FA. I really hope we land him.

the fINs (see what i did there) are making some moves that worry me a little. Same with the jets. Just get clay and get it over with please.

 

Yep. AFCE is going to be a real B word.
