I don’t know all the WRs AJ Brown - thanks for knowing its a typo. Too many AJ, Antonio, Browns and Greens! AJ Brown - Ole Miss - I think he is the best WR in the draft. https://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/players/playerpage/2258303/aj-brown

I like AJ Brown, N'Keal Harry, David Sills, Parris Cambell and Anthony Johnson at WR for what this team needs. But I am ok going RT/G/C/DT/Edge in 1 and 2 and going for Anthony Johnson/ Cambell/ Sills in the third if available. 1

BADOLBILZ Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) 3 hours ago, Coach Tuesday said: They also put him on waivers and lucked out a bit that he wasn’t claimed... Finding late or post-draft steals is also A LOT easier when you have a lot of jobs up for grabs. The Bills came to camp with just 2 WR guaranteed to make the roster(Zay and KB).............that's a ton of opportunity for a guy like Foster who really had no takers and if not for the Daboll connection might have been looking for work in the CFL. And as Eddie Yarbrough can attest.........all bets on whether you make it from there on out are off. He got CUT from his CFL team the year before Buffalo took a chance on him and he played well in reserve for Buffalo. But back to the original point........as your roster gets better those steals get harder to find. Edited January 6, 2019 by BADOLBILZ 2

They play him at Hback. He’s super fast but hands aren’t elite. He’s a McD type, DNA/Football character wise. Edited January 6, 2019 by YoloinOhio

Foster's agent probably deserves the credit for finding the right team for his client. Think Daboll deserves a lot of credit for Foster. Since he was his oc at Bama.

Allen's accuracy issues are well documented, and so finding guys that can really get open becomes that much more important. The one thing that Zay, Clay, Holmes, and KB all had in common is none of them were very good at gaining separation. You probably give up some blocking, execution on wr screens, etc., going after guys like that but until Allen can learn to become more precise on his throws (i.e. leading receivers away from defenders more consistently) there are going to be issues completing balls in tight coverage. Actually Allen has pin point accuracy it is just that he misfires sometimes. That started to disapate as the season went on and will likely further deminish in the offseason.

formerlyofCtown Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 3 hours ago, RocCityRoller said: Congrats, and well deserved. He and Dupree were my favorite WRs entering this year. Passer rating when targeted - 127.2 on 20 yds per catch avg..... Question for TBD. Did Allen make a collection of Zay, Foster and McKenzie better, or did they help make Josh look better? Hoping for AJ Brown in the draft. Next AJ Green IMO. (full disclosure I do not like Metcalf at all. Reach and bust written all over him) Id rather go OT/G/C/DL/Edge in 1+2 then get Anthony Johnson in the third than take Metcalf in the first. I think you are going to be disappointed as Metcalf has the size I believe they will be looking for.

Bill from NYC Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 3 hours ago, Mark Vader said: I understand why Foster went undrafted, why did Levi Wallace go undrafted? Very similar situation. He got fewer reps because the secondary was just so stacked. I don't remember his combine numbers either. I did read an article in which Calvin Ridley praised him. As I recall he was a walk on, or at least he was not highly recruited. VERY few players make the Alabama team under these conditions. He worked his way up. Btw Saban of course has a defensive backs assistant but is heavily involved in coaching the defensive backs. Some say that he is coaching the players AND the assistant coach. He has jokingly said several times that if the jobs paid the same he would still be a defensive backs assistant, which was his start in coaching. 3
