BigDingus Posted April 29, 2018 Posted April 29, 2018 Roscoe Parrish 2.0 (except slower). Actually, he's more Wes Welker than Parrish.McCloud / Welker Height - 5 ' 9 / -5 ' 9 Weight - 190lbs / 195lbs 40 Yd Dash - 4.53 / 4.55 Broad Jump - 113.0 inches / 113.0 inches Only difference is statistically on the field, as McCloud didn't do nearly as much (he wasn't ever a real focus) compared to Welker (who played in an air-raid offense). 1

If Daboll takes a Pats approach to our offense, a player like this makes a ton of sense. I think McCloud, Proehl, Foster all make this team. Which speaks to the Bills lack of depth at WR just as much as their talent

This guy was projected as an UFA. Not good. This was a snap comment based on Ray Ray's size....but I've come around. Sounds like he could be a nice pick-up. Could really use a good return guy and both Ray Ray and Proel could be our own Welker. Edleman types of player.

For a 6th round pick and being able to play multiple positions its a good value pick.

Well, if the QB throwing to him, is Brady, Rodgers or Roth! But yet again, the Bills have a QB with THE millennium competency, deficiency- Accuracy! At least now, we have one who can see over the O line! ? But still these Smurfs with jets are simply rendered invisible and useless during the last half of the season in Buffalo- when the weather outside becomes frightful. And they become brittle in the freezing cold, when the ball sails and they get hung out and crushed by the Corner/Safety! The standard operating rule for OBD this entire Reign of Error should be, if you're not at least 6-1, see ya! I hope I'm wrong...

Lazy is a deal breaker for these guys. I don't think Biscuit really cares about high character players or culture or "trusting the process". He cares more about measurables and raw talent sort of fan. If I'm wrong, please correct me. Which is why he is not a fan of McD/Beane. I value the importance of "process", culture and character. I see it in my life, I see and have seen it in every single successful team or organization that I have been in. I just think back to my days when I played soccer in North Carolina and I was part of an all star team that played competitive state wide and national tournaments. We were 3 time state and 2 time regional champs in the years I was with them. We had been playing together for over 8 years and the whole program created a culture. A culture that demanded the players to play a certain way of controlled aggression. The players demanded it of each other, we never took practices lightly. Any new member to the team that joined felt those expectations. This is just a small example of creating a culture, god knows how much more that is magnified in the pros. To me, it looks like the Bills are drafting guys that for the most part have shown leadership qualities who are high effort. And they are selecting guys with decent to good athleticism. So it's not as if they are just selecting a bunch of high character guys with uninspiring athleticism. I like what they are doing and I trust their judgment. At least the guys now in charge have a clear and concise plan of what they want and they are executing that plan with filling the roster with their guys. I don't know if it will pan out but I'm good with what they are doing and I'm optimistically hopeful. 1
HiddenInLight Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Sounds like he has some good hands, which seems to be his best trait other then the fact that he is versatile. Good trait to have I guess. Maybe coach him up?
mjdotson Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 The number of people here who are losing their minds over a Slot/ST/RB hybrid guy from Clemson we picked in the 6th round is hilarious. Too many of you get hung up on measureables instead of looking at football skills. Ray Ray is a really good football player, especially for a 6th round pick.

Umm, he didn't get into the "open field" until 50 yards after the catch, when he had expended a ton of energy bobbing and weaving his way through defenders and cutting back across the field. To come away from watching that play and use it to say he's slow is silly.
Mikey152 Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Some of you guys should google Antonio Brown's pre-draft scouting reports. http://www.espn.com/blog/pittsburgh-steelers/post/_/id/23356/small-and-slow-how-antonio-brown-flipped-the-nfl-draft-on-its-head-in-2010 1
Coach Tuesday Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Loading up on slot receivers is strange to me - Allen's weakness is that he lacks touch on short crossing routes - that will need to be corrected ASAP.
LabattBlue Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 I thought this guy was Roscoe 2.0. Then I went and looked up Roscoes playing weight...168 lbs. RayRay has a solid 20 lbs on him.

It’s similar to trading Sammy and putting Tyrod in a WCO. I trust them on defense but are we sure they know what they are doing on offense? Last year was not a good start.

How long did it take Eric Moulds to develop? 1

Yeah, takes a bit usually, unless they are legit top of the draft guys, and even then they usually start as wr2 or need to have some other WRs to keep from being double covered all the time

I think he's going to have a good rookie year, being opposite Jones should give him a lot of single coverages

He’s a clutch playeree and he rarely drops the ball. I’m pleased we picked up Foster. He’s a good player, he just didn’t get many touches because Alabama is loaded. I think he sticks. 1
