Buffalo Barbarian Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) can you blame him? who wants leave Buffalo for friggin Boston. Edited April 19, 2015 by Buffalo Barbarian
Bills Fan888 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 I wish we hadn't cut him. He was good enough to warrant his 2.5 million cap hit.
Dragonborn10 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Yeah I don't understand cutting Chandler. He was an average player and would have been a solid #2. I would much rather have gotten rid of Fred Jackson or Chris Williams and kept Chandler. It is going to hurt when Fred gets cut in training camp and there is no good #2 TE on the team.

Augie Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 It does seem odd to have cut ties with Chandler so early. I liked him as AN option, just not as THE option.
seq004 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 I would have liked to keep him as well but good luck and thank you.

Are you kidding me, cut Fred Jackson!!! I would rather we cut you. Good day Sir, I said good day.
Mr. WEO Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Yeah I don't understand cutting Chandler. He was an average player and would have been a solid #2.

When did we have a good #2 TE? We now have a better #1 TE, so it's a plus...
ProcessAccepted Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 I would have liked to keep him as well but good luck and thank you. Me too. He made some plays, however I still remember some key drops and the Falcons game he and SJ gave away. Its a tough business and unfortunately it doesn't always work out
johnwalter Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 always played so fierce, he reminded me a little of fitz like that. perfect buffalo guy, sorry to see him go.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 The guy was anti clutch!!! Just like Stevie!!
birdog1960 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 just shows how bad we were at TE and nothing was done for years to fix it. could well be a very nice guy. just not a nice TE.
Ontario51 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Scott Chandler will be missed he had some really good moments. MarQuese Grey looked pretty good last year. Jackson is the 2nd best all around RB on the Bills.
Kelly the Dog Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Chandler doesn't fit Roman's offense very well at all. As a TE you need to be a good downfield athletic guy like Vernon Davis that can exploit coverages, a versatile H Back hybrid like Clay, or a strong blocker. Chandler is none of those. Why you would play Chandler over Harvin or Woods if he is going to be split wide?
Rocky Landing Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Yeah I don't understand cutting Chandler. He was an average player and would have been a solid #2. I would much rather have gotten rid of Fred Jackson or Chris Williams and kept Chandler. It is going to hurt when Fred gets cut in training camp and there is no good #2 TE on the team. Mark my words: Marquise Grey is going to be solid. Chandler was a reliable target, but he certainly had his weaknesses. His YAC were terrible. A girl scout could tackle that guy. And, IMHO, I don't think he makes the Pats* 53. Chandler doesn't fit Roman's offense very well at all.

Gugny Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Chandler was a great Bill. And a great TE. Saying he wasn't clutch means you didn't watch him play. Another Hackett victim. I hope he kicks ass for the rest of his career.

Why you would play Chandler over Harvin or Woods if he is going to be split wide? Who goes if Clay can't? If Roman is half the coach that people say he is, he could've found a way for Scott to be productive.

His YAC were terrible. A girl scout could tackle that guy. And, IMHO, I don't think he makes the Pats* 53. Could you elaborate on this? Clay is going to play #1 TE. He's better in just about every way than Chandler, exponentially in this offense. If you play two TEs, you don't want Chandler on the line because he is a weak blocker. If you play two TEs and split one wide, with the other as an HBack or inline, that would be Clay, and there is no reason to play Chandler split wide instead of Percy Harvin or Robert Woods who are better receivers, route runners, and hands than Chandler. So there are few, if any, combinations where he is a better idea than players we have, or asked to do something he doesn't do well.
Dragonborn10 Posted April 19, 2015 Posted April 19, 2015 Are you kidding me, cut Fred Jackson!!! I would rather we cut you. Good day Sir, I said good day. Better prepare yourself. He will not make it out of training camp.
