Well if they aren't going to use him as a WR, and kickoff returns are being taken out of the game, they just used a 6th round pick on a punt returner? Edited April 28, 2018 by LabattBlue

There's a receiver like this every year, that was projected to be a 3-4th rounder, goes 7th-UFA, and is never heard from again. I think they are hoping Ray-Ray is a Sproles/Woodhead type of player. I'll take that in the 6th
Steve Billieve Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 He would excel when he had a full head of steam ahead of him with returns and reverses and stuff though.
NoSaint Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 6 minutes ago, SCBills said: Not in love with him as a WR, but if our defense is as dominant as we believe it will be, Ray Ray is not a guy that opposing teams will want to punt to. Not a burner but his tight space shiftiness is absurd. At this point we are angling towards being a team that hopes to hold the opponent to 10 and break two big plays on offense. As a 6th rounder if he might get 2-3 of those 32 big plays, it’s a win! 1

Better than trading up for Kickers and Punters. OOOO Also talk is a transition to defense.

If you get a someone to contribute with a 6 that's a win. I don't care if they're just a longsnapper. He doesn't just do returns on st either.
YoloinOhio Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 He was a big time recruit. Didn’t follow him much since.

Waste of a roster spot if he can't contribute as a WR(which you said he won't), and can't be on coverage teams because he is a twig.

Was the bright spot so to speak.

There is nothing saying he cannot contribute as a WR. So many of these type of players become good players in the NFL From Antonio Brown to Edleman Late Round gambles in this position can and do pay off. Edited April 28, 2018 by MAJBobby 1
MarlinTheMagician Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 I will choose to trust the process here. Supposedly also "thickly built" in the lower body so that he can not get destroyed despite his size.

Lots of teams keep a spot for their returner. and lots of teams don't like using one of their marque players for the job either. He's played cb before. Clemson put him out there on kick offs not just returns. Was part of a lot of gimicy plays for them too. And just because he will probably never be a starting wr doesn't mean he can't contribute at that position occasionally.

Well then you should have said that to begin with, instead of "they didn't draft him to be a WR". Capiche?
richardb1952 Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 He looks to be very versatile. He will be given every opportunity to contribute to the team. Obviously, the Bills see something in him and felt he was more valuable than any of the other remaining WRs on the board.
