Augie Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 It's head scratching to me that they will run guys like Kaelin Clay out there but Reilly and Dupre are sitting on the PS. Keeping up with the Jets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 That's why they don't move the football!! You don't say "we are awful at WR so let's get some other positions." I'm not saying it's what I would do. I'm just saying from the sample size we've seen, for whatever reason, they wouldn't be getting good value at those positions. Now if it's TT holding them back and they'd open up the book to push the ball downfield, that's a different story. But if they want to take a another second round pick just to throw quick outs and come backs, the pick would be better spent somewhere that they actually utilize i think that's more of an issue with the current QB. They will be drafting their guy this year, I expect he will start right away. Also, McD and Denison were here when they traded up in the 2nd for Zay so I'd say they value the position. They value it enough to spend another 2nd on one? I don't see it being worth the value unless they change their offensive scheme. I know it's early, but if Rico is going to run stretch zone until he is blue in the face, what does another WR do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 WR is the worst position group on the roster (and I'm not sure it's close). Easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They traded up this year in the 2nd for a receiver. They value them they just don't know how to use them. Dennison's last offense had Demaryius and Sanders. Our receivers STINK.

Mark Vader Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 It's head scratching to me that they will run guys like Kaelin Clay out there but Reilly and Dupre are sitting on the PS. I think they are only using Kaelin Clay as a returner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I have always been a fan (but I loved Smith too). They are similar to me. Elite deep threats that track the ball well in the air. His skill set is so desperately needed on this team. Whether it be him or someone else it's a need. It's absolutely a need. It's unfathomable that a team went into an NFL season without a guy that can fulfill that role in this day and age. I've been pleasantly surprised by Darren Andrews of UCLA in that role.

Kirby Jackson Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) Can't see him being a McBeaner if those felony charges stick Yeah, I'm glad that we have a team full of good guys. It seems like the Jets do too since they dumped Richardson. Maybe we can sign the Pope to stretch the field?

Solomon Grundy Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Sutton has been my guy but Cain's speed may make more sense. WR is a massive need. I don't see Sutton ranked on list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 From what I've seen from Dennison, investing a high priority pick on a WR next year would not be the best bang for their buck. Trust me when we get the QB we will get the WR. We probably go QB then WR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I guess it makes sense that we'd eventually get a WR that won't blame God for his drops Winner!!I don't see Sutton ranked on listHe's a big kid from SMU. He's a former basketball player with big production. He's a really nice talent. YouTube some of his highlights and I think you'll be impressed. Trust me when we get the QB we will get the WR. We probably go QB then WR It's a massive need and we will be adding 1 early (and probably another next offseason). You have any favorites?

I'm not really sure at this point. If Jordan Matthews stays long-term, that defines the role they lack. That role is typically filled by a player that goes fairly early. I also think it depends on how Brandon Beane looks at the positional value. If he's a Gettleman copy, he's taken Benjamin in the 1st. Marty Hurney hasn't taken one earlier than the 2nd. And then you have to assess the picks we have and how the board falls. Vague enough for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bills do decide to keep Matthews, then you would think they would go for a WR in the 2nd round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokestradamus Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 You have mastered the art of obfuscation. I can die a happy man. If you tune into ESPN in a few minutes, Iowa State WR Allen Lazard is facing Texas. All 6'5", 222 pounds of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
