NewEraBills Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) I don't really consider Jones a bust. He was a 2nd round pick that really improved his draft stock from the Sr Bowl. Now had he been taken in round 1 in the top 15 yep, he'd be the biggest bust since Maybin. But since he was a 2nd rounder, Maybe still holds the crown by a longshot in my book. Is he playing below his draft selection? Sure. I'm not for sure what the issues are though. Is he not open until the defense is playing prevent? Edited October 1, 2018 by NewEraBills

GG Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 In fairness, he seemed to play better when Allen started looking at him more in 4Q. I'd be interested to know if he caught the tight sideline pass where the refs wrongly called a sack.
FistingBot Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) WR is tough to evaluate given productivity depends on targets... and of course targets depend on play design and does the guy get open or not... since we can't really see the route on TV, I have no idea is Zay gets open. But, he has only been targeted 17 times this season. That's really low. And, obviously our QBs have both had accuracy issues. It'd be far easier to judge Zay if we had a decent offensive coordinator (I'm not a Daboll fan) and a solid NFL QB. Until that happens I'm going with "need more data" on Zay.

Success Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 He was actually pretty wide open on the first half INT. If Allen could have set his feet that’s a likely TD.

BuffaloRush Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 Bucky Brooks was a bigger bust as a second round we, but yeah Zay sucks pretty bad
Bing Bong Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 I'd normally call this hyperbole. But stats wise he has the worst WR start ever, and he was a second round draft pick.. like was Maybin the worst ever??
Steptide Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 Every WR the bills have signed/drafted since McBean have been around are busts. They've had Tyrod Taylor, nate Peterman and the rookie allen throwing to them. How good could they be

How good could they be It’s totally shocking how WRs don’t produce while wearing a Bills uniform but the moment they move to a team running a real NFL offense they suddenly become productive. Somehow these guys weren’t good enough to be on this Bills squad. All part of the process though...

Yeah, Benjamin is in self-preservation mode and going half speed on half of his plays, but Zay is trying his best. That’s horrific. There is 0.0 chance this guy makes it out of TC next year. We took him over JuJu. Damn. I’d rather have TJ Graham. I agree, we should have R. Woods and Juju as our starting WR's.

If you can't name the guys that come to Buffalo you then you just might be trolling. Hyde and Poyer who weren't even offered contracts by their own teams AND they produce. Jerry Hughes wasn't even offered contracts by the Colts AND he produces they all had choices I'm sure. They could have said no.

I wasn't hating on the hyde and poyer signings, I was pointing out that they didn't have other options. Can't name their names... get out of here with that weak ass condescending ****.

Charlottebillsfan2 Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 He is on pace for 576 yards 40 receptions (I actually think he ends up closer to 750 yards, he should continue to develop with Allen). Last season he had 316 yards. So that tells me that he is getting better. I'm not sure if I would cast him off as the biggest bust in memory just yet.

The fact that he had a putrid rap song made about how great he was cannot be beaten.
