What tracking problems are you talking about? You saw Allen's first pass, right? https://www.buffalobills.com/video/every-josh-allen-pass-preseason-week-1 The tracking problem was him running with his head looking back at the ball leaving him a tad short. (Important distinction, the pass wasn’t too long) if you don’t believe me do the following: go outside face one direction look in the opposite direction run report back 3 2
Saxum Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Only Fosters which will be with Bills opener is a case of beer.
Bring it Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 I just think he is extremely raw. Very good physical tools. Just needs to learn more of the game. I don’t know if he has time this year? But, if he can hang for a couple of years and develop he could be weapon. Looks like he can get separation almost anytime he wants!!

snamsnoops Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 (edited) Kid cant track a ball to save his life, so it's hard to say he can catch. He is fast and that is about it.... What good is a speed WR who cant catch anything long? Looks like maybe PS, but he probably will just be cut. Edited August 16, 2018 by snamsnoops

He didn’t seem to have any tracking issues with the bomb that was thrown out of bounds. If the ball is in bounds it’s likely a TD. On the second bomb, if the ball is thrown a 0.5 yrd shorter, it’s likely 2 TDS.

It's called independent thinking. What would you have "independently thought" of Foster's performance had he played college ball at USC, Nebraska or Louisville? 7 minutes ago, Mr. WEO said: With that kind of speed, he should be starting long successful career as a parking valet by Monday.

SouthNYfan Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 Alabama player thread!? Shocking. Foster is trash.

He comes into frame during 2:21 when he's at the 30 yard line and he's already looking back for the ball. He misses the ball at the 9. That's 21 yards in the video we have here and, like I said, he was already looking back at the 30. 2

Same thing. 6'2" x 195, top end speed, 5* recruit, #2 WR in the country coming out of HS. The guy is gifted athletically. He just needs some seasoning, which is probably why he was in on 34 snaps.

You cant be that much of a homer to see that. He was looking over his shoulder for the last 20-30 yards the ball was in the air. This is why the ball seemed out of reach. (maybe he could have stretched out for it?) The 3rd long ball he gave up on his route. Not good things for a rookie trying to make a team. His college career represents him not being that good and is why he went un-drafted. Maybe spending time on the PS will help. I dont see him making the squad unless he really starts to impress in PS games......
