We just decided not to, and I'm fine with that (even though I liked Gaines and Brown--well, the latter, most of the time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 I don't think Matthews fit into their plans tbh along with his injury history. Preston had a higher price tag on himself than the Bills did then he threw shade at them with the Pats tweet. Buh-bye. Signing Davis made Gaines expendable. Gaines injury sheet is much longer than Davis and Davis has performed at a higher level. Gaines also likely valued himself more than we did.

Steptide Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 If beane and McDermott think the way I think they think, my guess is they think they can get better production out of a draft pick, or guys they signed in the off season, like Rod Streator. I wanted matthews back, I think he's much better than what we saw last year, but if zay steps up this year, then whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Just a guess but the Bills view Zay Jones as the slot guy, they want a speed guy outside opposite Benjamin. Brown wasn't a fit. Gaines injuries scared them. Also I'm pretty sure all 3 wanted to play elsewhere if the money was close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GETTOTHE50 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Im going to miss how Brown was durable. But I will certainly not miss when he got abused in the passing game. Especially against Gronk. He was hopeless there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beacon Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Brown was a goner as soon as he stood and watched gronk crush tre and he didn't crush gronk... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
