eball Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 It's phenomenal to hear such good things about the WRs. I was honestly pretty worried going in, but Lewis and Little sound like diamonds on the rough and Woods soubds back on track Little's problem has always been his hands. Watched him all through college at UNC and the guy makes plays...but he'll drop the easy ones too often. If he can get come consistency with those hands he deserves to be on an NFL roster. Didn't like hearing he dropped the perfect bomb from EJ today.

It sounds like the first that I've heard about the camp so far so I'm not getting too down yet but it is something worth watching.
Kemp2Warlick Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Ive read that "perfect" bomb was 1" out of reach Little's problem has always been his hands.

YattaOkasan Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Taylor and Manuel are light years ahead of Cardale. Here's hoping the Bills take their time and invest in the rook the right way -- because he does have intangibles (Size, Arm). His footwork is not very good -- nowhere near the other two - I lost count how many times he threw off back foot without stepping into throw. Go Bills. You mean unteachables right? Cause I'm pretty sure his arm and size are pretty tangible. Either way great write up thanks to you and Astro.
hondo in seattle Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Thanks Astro (& NY Nole)! Living on the other side of the continent, it's great to read these reports and have a sense of what's going on in Rochester.
Captain Hindsight Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Noticed the same things yesterday WRT to the QBs. Taylor is light years better than EJ or Cardale. EJ looks better than he has and his footwork and accuracy is more consistent. Still not perfect but more consistent. Jones has a small rocket attached to his arm, but its erratic.
eball Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Rastro, a quick question -- any thoughts on Jonathan Williams? Haven't heard much about him over the first three days of camp.
Jerry Jabber Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Astro & NY Nole, thank you very much for the detailed reports. I put more stock in what you guys report, than some of the beat reporters as they seem biased (Joe B. reporting Taylor had a "meh day" when he went 16/22 yesterday).
BaaadThingsMan Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Rastro, a quick question -- any thoughts on Jonathan Williams? Haven't heard much about him over the first three days of camp.I was wondering the same thing
Astrobot Posted August 1, 2016 Author Posted August 1, 2016 ??? Sorry. Jamison Lalk. Rastro, a quick question -- any thoughts on Jonathan Williams? Haven't heard much about him over the first three days of camp. He looked pretty sullen walking off the field. He wasn't used much at all.
Kemp2Warlick Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 I read somewhere that Ragland stuffed J. Williams on a run ... probably why he was sullen...lol
BaaadThingsMan Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 He looked pretty sullen walking off the field. He wasn't used much at all. Gotta go to work son

Didn't like hearing he dropped the perfect bomb from EJ today. It was 1" out of reach, not a drop. It would have been a non-issue if Tyrod had thrown it. I have to disagree with Tyrod's "meh" day comment a Buffalo sportscaster made. Here's a list of what Tyrod did today: ---Made 100% of his 4 fade throws to both the L and R corners. ---Made 100% of his 4 red zone passes on the end zone line. ---Threw ridiculous balls to Dez Lewis, Greg Little in Session 6 ---Threw OVER THE MIDDLE to Felton, ---Threw OVER THE MIDDLE to a wide-open Dez Lewis, where he and Powell had rendered Robey/Graham useless. ---Threw OVER THE MIDDLE to Gragg slanting for a TOUCHDOWN. ---Connects far side to Davonte Allen, near side to Goodwin. ---About to be tackled in backfield, takes off and throws over LB head to McCoy for 15+ yards. ---Puts a ball in a place only Salas can catch ---Sweet sideline pass to Hankerson ---Nice swing pass to MCCoy-->TOUCHDOWN ---Little, Salas, and Woods line up, pass to Woods-->TOUCHDOWN Negative plays: ---Ragland moves up to the R of the R-EDGE and would have tackled Tyrod ---Worthy, IK Enemkpali get through to make tackle ---Near-INT by Preston Brown
eball Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 ^^^^ Nice. I always have to wonder what the angle is the local reporters are trying to take.
YoloinOhio Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 I love how OVER THE MIDDLE is in all caps. That's a great sign.
USMCBillsFan Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 How's Striker doing? I'm really hoping he makes the team. Great inspiration and attitude so I'm pulling for him!
section122 Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 Thanks for this! I was very happy to see your placeholder. The season is truly around the corner when we see these notes
