Punching Bag Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Kamar Aiken, who was on the Bills roster in 2011, had just short (944) of 1,000 receiving yards, with 75 catches and five touchdowns as Ravens WR2 (and WR1 when Steve Smith, Sr, went down. He was only active for 2 games for Bills and 1 game for Pats* in 2012 but seemed to find his niche in Baltimore. The Ravens, whose cap issues are almost as bad as Buffalo, don't seem to want to risk losing him next year as UFA. They are also having buyer's remorse for some of the deals they signed. http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Late-For-Work-113-What-Is-Kamar-Aikens-Future-In-Baltimore/13ff9557-1929-474e-afcc-a949f94c85a9 http://espn.go.com/blog/baltimore-ravens/post/_/id/25772/three-disappointing-contracts-have-put-ravens-in-nfls-second-worst-cap-situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigK14094 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Yes, I saw him play w the Bills and always wondered why he didn't get a legit shot a showing his stuff. He looked like a stud to me...big receiver...but.....our crack coaches had their favorites....and he never got to play here. Big, fast.....never understood it.

Doc Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I always liked him. But he was a late bloomer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 Yes he was a late bloomer who could not master route running even after he went to New England in 2012 although I thought at the time he had more potential than some of the practice squad members.

I recall he made some plays for us. Good for him landing in an environment that allowed his successful season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I Remember in one preseason there was some error on bb.com, which listed Aiken as no. 1 on the depth chart. This place exploded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
