njbuff Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 What does it mean when you are one of the very best players on ST unit that ranked at the bottom of the NFL? Kinda like being the tallest midget. 1
MrEpsYtown Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 He's a pretty good gunner and special teams guy. He was a pretty prolific return guy at Pitt, so I kind of wonder why we never tried him there.

msw2112 Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 I didn't realize that Pitts went to Pitt. 1 1 1
Misterbluesky Posted February 12, 2019 Posted February 12, 2019 Average player at best...just because he signed a cheap contract doesn't mean he'll be on the roster next September.

Him and Foster got smoked on the outside as gunners...we missed Holmes on the outside,dumping him was just plain silly.It's all water under the bridge now..no place to go but up when talking about the ST unit(s).
YoloinOhio Posted February 15, 2019 Author Posted February 15, 2019 Summary The Buffalo Bills are sure to get their money’s worth with Lafayette Pitts, considering it’s for the league minimum. The worst case scenario is keeping him as a core special-teams player. If Pitts sees time on the field, he’s demonstrated he can hang in there without leading the team to catastrophe. While the clips above are flaw-heavy, the team performed well with him on the field. Prior to Week 17, most of us would have assumed that Pitts and undrafted rookie Levi Wallace being the two corners on the field for half a game would have resulted in more than three points for their opponents. It’d be great to have All-Pro depth at the position, but the Buffalo Bills didn’t make a mistake by keeping Lafayette Pitts around for at least one more year.
