Zay Jones played injured all season...

[oldmanfan]

He'll get better.

[BillnutinHouston]

Zay will be fine.

In all seriousness.....does anyone REALLY think this kid is not going to get better?

 

The character is too high....the work ethic is too high.....he already has the physical tools

 

Since when has desire and effort guaranteed improvement. I'm not saying it won't happen, but there was very little to get excited about

And Here come the excuses.  

 

Did your hurt shoulder cause you to drop almost every pass thrown your way, Zay?  

You do need to move your arms to catch, right?  Too many here are too quick to dismiss injuries.  These guys are playing against super elite athletes - trying to do that while injured is incredibly difficult.

Injury or not, he can only improve, right?

Yes, he is having surgery on a healthy shoulder just to trick us into thinking he didn’t just have a bad year. ?

[hondo in seattle]

A shoulder injury could explain some of the drops.  It doesn't explain the lack of separation.

Then again, he was just a rook.  Some WRs need a year or two to adapt to the NFL.

You said the same things about EJ for several years. There's no guarantee of anything, but I doubt he'll get worse.

Zay "10 thumbs" Jones....need I say more.

Torn Labrum? I’m surprised he even played. You lose all push strength and motion range in your arm with lots of pain.

This is actually good news...maybe a healthy Zay will do better next year.

 

I hope so because he sucked this year.

Maybe. But can't think of too many players that don't play with some sort if injury. 

[SNICE]

I like Zay. Can’t wait for him to come back with experience from rookie year and healthy.  

[Estro]

Unless both his hands were broken I still have serious concerns about his ability to make contested catches.  He was absolutely awful in those contested situations, which is the norm in the NFL

[The_Dude]

I think the Bills need to improve the WR corps to the point where Zay knows he needs to earn his spot. Perhaps the injury explains for drops...we’ll see. But he shouldn’t feel entitled to a spot next year and we need to bring in lots of competition. 

 

Ive heard on NFL Radio that this years WR draft class is awful so I expect moves in free agency.

[Ol Dirty B]

If the shoulder injury is what made him play so poorly then he should have been shut down when it was appearant he couldn't play effectively through it.

LOL... does a hurt shoulder make the hands weaker? we'll see....

As someone who ruptured his subscap tendon, it'll make your whole body weak    The pain in invigorating.
