So it made sense that they tried to trade him for a pick, but doesn’t make sense from a GM’s standpoint to cut him at this point. Doesn't he have to get offered a decent salary to really be a factor? The way he's been playing he might get vet minimum for a 1 year prove-it.
billsfan_34 Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) His laziness, poor hands, and being slow far surpasses his size that he was blessed with. It is time to cut the cord. Edited November 12, 2018 by billsfan_34
buffaloboyinATL Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 It really is crazy. It is honestly like he completely lost the ability to catch.
LSHMEAB Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 KB is PRESSING. I don't think he's the MOST dedicated guy there is, but that angle is blown out of proportion IMO. The truth is he's just not a very good player and the QB's are not good. Almost felt bad for him on the TD drop because you could tell it hurt. It's in his head at this point. That's not an excuse either; football requires mental fortitude. I just think he gets a little too much hate for "lack of effort."

HeHateMe Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 Dude sucks at the one thing he is supposed to be good at. He doesn't high point the ball. He is so weak with the ball, and that is even if he tries to catch it..
LabattBlue Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 He should be inactive for the rest of the season. What message does his effort send to the rest of the players on the team. 1
Bing Bong Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 Just let him finish his contract and go. He's still sadly a starting WR on this roster.
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 ....CERTAINLY is setting up an OBJ like payday in his contract year, isn't he?.........gonna be like a Barrett-Jackson auction bidding for his "services"....NO RESERVE...opening bid at ten bucks....

That's right,we traded a third and seventh for him....but it's only a matter of time before he "pulls" a hammy.

Comp picks depend on what another team is willing to pay him if I understand the formula correctly. I can't imagine him getting much in free agency. Most likely a small one year prove it deal.
JohnC Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 5 minutes ago, Augie said: Two words............... COMP PICKS! ? For a team in our situation with a lot of cap availability odds are that acquiring comp picks is very improbable. Most of us believe that this offseason the Bills are going to be aggressive buyers of players on the market. That will more than neutralize gaining comp picks from other teams acquiring our free agents. Even if a player such as Benjamin was picked up because of his play he is not going to garner much of a contract. It wouldn't be surprising that he signs a one year deal with a team that has a good passing game from which he could possibly rehabilitate his besmirched reputation as a receiver. That's the route that the former Cardinal John Brown took by signing a one year deal with the Ravens. He preferred signing a deal with a team that had a good qb in Flacco rather than sign a deal with the Bills who probably offered him more but whose qb situation was very problematic. 1

It’s a JOKE (mostly). The comp pick thing gets a good ride every offseason. I just thought I’d revisit in the afterglow of a victory. 1

JTown Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 KB has been absolute garbage and is amongst one of the largest head scratchers for me in regards to McClappy's "process". How does his lack of effort go unnoticed? I thought that was everything he has preached. Personally, I don't care to see any further Carolina re-treads unless his name is McCaffery.

As far as the equ or grave and double dimple marks that is beyond my intellectual capacity to get right so I don't bother with it. 1

I don't deserve your generous accolades because I had to take a number of torturous remedial tutorials to finally figure it out. When one is a slow but determined learner you learn how to slog on and eventually arrive at the voila moment. So in reality there is little about me that you should be impressed with. 1
