BillsFanForever19 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Day 6 MVP: WR Cam Phillips- As the pads have gone on, Phillips has risen to the challenge and is making an outstanding play almost on a daily basis. Wednesday was his best day so far. When I went to Fisher last Friday, I kept seeing #5 making plays. I had to check the roster sheet to see who he was. Since then, every single practice i've read the beat guys talking about him. If you go to practice, keep an eye out for him. I'm expecting/hoping for a solid Pre-Season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottebillsfan2 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Nice post thanks for sharing, would be great if they found a diamond in the ruff at the WR position. Here's an article about why we wasn't drafted. https://www.gobblercountry.com/2018/5/26/17397942/seven-reasons-cam-phillips-wasnt-drafted-nfl-acc-vt-virginia-tech-hokies-buffalo-bills Edited August 2, 2018 by Charlottebillsfan2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Diver Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 How does Foster look? I read he is playing gunner with first unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 This is great to hear, I was going to say I just read that he said the Bills were the only team to reach out to him after the draft with interest... nice scouting work there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he'll be anything elite, but he is steady handed, tough, and has the mindset of being willing to take on any role to help the offense move the ball and score. Don't be put off by his combine numbers, he played the entire college season with a sports hernia (and still caught 71 for 964 yards and 7 TDs) and then had surgery after the season. EDIT: If I was going to put a cap on where I think he could get, I'd say that what reasonable people's expectations of Zay were last year isn't outside the realm of possibility.

CajunBillsBacker Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 It’s going to be interesting to see who sticks in the roster. Benjamin and Kerley are locks Zay Jones probably? Dupre maybe? Then there’s a whole bunch of slot receivers. Reilly, Phillips, Foster, McCloud, Proehl, etc. just from reading reports, I can’t see Reilly, Phillips, or Foster getting cut. So that puts our two drafted receivers on the practice squad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Proehl and Mccloud are PS for sure. I read that Proehl has had a lot of drops. I agree that Reilly and Foster make it. Foster has the downfield speed factor they desperately need. Reilly has earned his spot thus far. Edited August 2, 2018 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdrought Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Man, we have no shortage of possession type guys. We desperately need some down fielders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure they drafted McCloud to be Tate's replacement in the return game. If he doesn't produce in the Pre-Season from that spot - maybe it's PS. But I think he'll be in the 53. People don't want to hear it. But my gut tells me this will be yet another season of Brandon Reilly just missing the 53. Too many more heralded prospects have walked through the door since last year.

Don't forget about Holmes. I wouldn't call him a lock, as the staff may look to add more youth, but he's an experienced, solid vet. With the rules changes this year, the Bills may keep more WRs that can play on ST. That could help guys like Phillips, Foster, McCloud etc. to stick with the main roster or PS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Diver Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Foster plays special teams so that will give him a leg up plus Daboll knows him. Edited August 2, 2018 by Sky Diver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
