NewEra Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) Makes a lot of sense. Would do it for a 6th or 7th in a heartbeat. Wouldn't want to trade Ragland for him even though Ragland may be a poor fit. Edited August 20, 2017 by NewEra
BADOLBILZ Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 I don't think the Bills have their 6th this year, do they? Didn't it go to LA? He ran a 4.33 so he's definitely got speed. I can't say I've seen a whole lot of him but for a 7th why not? He did meet with the Carolina Panthers leading up to the draft, so it's possible Beane has some familiarity with him. Interesting info. As a Hurricanes fan....my opinion was that Dorsett just didn't have much more than straight line speed.....and he's defnitely not as close to Goodwin-fast in pads as his 40 indicates. Colts wanted to use him as a slot guy and it's hard to see that......just not much change of direction. I thought he was going to be a 5th or 6th rounder coming out....Grigson just got receiver fever......PD is worth less now that he's failed to produce and been injured a lot.
Putin Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Give them Ragland.Didn't we move up in the second round to get him ? Sux I though we would be an asset to our defense , I was even looking at it as an extra draft pick for us this season
Putin Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 I think he did make a remark about the wings saying how can they be that much better in buffalo from the ones Alabama.[/quote Yah f()% that it's time for him to go
BaaadThingsMan Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 I don't get the Reggie hate. Did he use ranch on his wings or something? He busts his butt from what I've seen and is exactly a year removed from surgery. Give the dude a break. Somewhat interested in getting a speed guy like Dorsett but isn't he always hurt? agree about Reggie. I'd take a flyer for a 6-7 on Dorsett but wonder why the Colts would do that? Not like they're exactly loaded at receiver.

Love to get Dorsett, if we could do it for a 7th I'd be sold.. especially considering what we got from LA Chargers for Cardale. Just seems logical. And the hate for Reggie is not fair. Coming back from injury into a defense he is not specifically set up to succeed in. Patience.. I can also understand how we've run out of that patience. We make the playoffs and everything gets a little bit more optimistic around here.

Very few, if any, had Dorsett falling out of the second, let alone falling that low. Might have went a bit high, but more scouts leaned towards Dorsett going towards the bottom of the first than as low as you projected.
GunnerBill Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) 2017 late round conditional pickDon't think they'd take a pick that has already been spent..... I probably saw a lot less of him in college than Badol but I share some of the sentiments. I didn't like Dorsett much coming out - but then I didnt like that 2015 receiver class beyond White, Cooper and Parker. Thought there was a big drop off after those 3. A lot of players got overdrafted based on the relative rookie success of the 2014 receiver class. Edited August 20, 2017 by GunnerBill
CommonCents Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 I can still remember going nuts when Grigson let Malcolm Brown slip to NE so he could draft this one trick pony! Glorious!
SoTier Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) The Bills "need speed" because they sent their speediest WR west about ten days ago. How many of you player personnel geniuses who want to trade a pick for some other team's first round bust of a WR applauded the Watson trade? If the Bills FO didn't feel the need for Watkins' speed -- and sure hands -- why would they ever want Dorsett's lesser talent? Edited August 20, 2017 by SoTier
ChanticleerBillsFan Posted August 21, 2017 Author Posted August 21, 2017 Now how we feeling about Dorsett?
26CornerBlitz Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 Now how we feeling about Dorsett? Wouldn't be a bad move at all, but then again they apparently don't value the position that highly.
ChanticleerBillsFan Posted August 21, 2017 Author Posted August 21, 2017 I want to see what Shorts can do Reilly looked pretty good also
Captain Murica Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Is listenbee still unable to practice or something? I've seen in social media he is still training. We need speed and I know he hasn't played football in a while but he's a cheap option. Edited August 21, 2017 by Captain Murica

Captain Murica Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 Wasn't he waived with an injured designation? Honestly, I don't remember. I thought he was out right released but you're right just looked it up.
HappyDays Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 I think he fits our needs better than anyone else available. Would he be our #3 here? Behind Zay and Matthews? A conditional 5th would get it done I think. We're already missing our 6th rounder so it depends on how much Beans values those late picks.
