BillsfanAZ Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 They are paying him a lot of money for one season of production. I hope he is that player and not the player on I
brianthomas Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 I'm not a big fan of paying considerable money to a player who has only had 1 decent year. A year followed by a bad year at that. I mean we can all say "hey, at least we did something", but like other moves we've made in the past, we're paying good money for players who havent necessarily 'proved it' in the NFL. Hopefully we're still looking to improve the TE position because even with this signing, we're still in the same spot as we were before imo. Yeah we have another body but cmon, can't we do better? 1
Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Buffalo dumpster diving to kickoff Free agency... I guess they figured why wait for the inevitable? 3 1 2

Pencil him in as your starter next season, folks. We'll see if he can put up a similar year like he did in '17, catching 42 for 404 and seven touchdowns (that scoring mark would have tied for #Bills team high in '18). Glad this is what Beane was working on the first day of FA. 2
Success Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Fans always want big splash signings. But those rarely make teams successful. Spread the dollars around and build depth. I have complete faith in Beane. 8 2
LabattBlue Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Big risk...he only missed two games in his first 3 years, but last year only played in 5 games. If he is healthy, he should be a solid starter. If the injury woes continue, that will be a big chuck of cap space in the trainers room.

We lose out on Paradis, Humphries, AB, James, etc. I was hoping to fill in holes with $80 million. Well we got a backup TE, 1st round bust, and old RB to play down 3rd back. WTF? Same old Bills We have not lost out on Paradis. The rumors of him agreeing with NYJ are premature. Not saying it can't happen, but it has not yet 1

Yeah they can, Engram, Howard and Njoku all started fine--from the same draft. Hunter Henry, George Kittle, Hooper before that. Sefarian-Jenkins, Ebron. Eifert, Ertz, Reed, Kelce (IR rookie year but huge impact his next year) all same draft. 2

Steptide Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Lol @ everyone saying he's not that good and being overpaid. Have you guys not learned yet that beane is very very good and finding underrated guys? That's not to say EVERY guy he signs is great, but we have many examples of guys who we thought would do nothing and have proven the opposite 2
Buffalo03 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Could it possibly help with getting AJ Green here since they were both teammates? 2

Not saying it can't happen, but it has not yet it sounds like it's a done deal, but we have a slight shot. I am annoyed. We could of applied this $6 million and Gore's $2 million- for Houston or someone that is not a JAG
Rockpile233 Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 I don’t hate either of these signings all that much in a bubble, but if they aren’t afterthoughts to some difference makers on the OL it’s a huge failure.
Chuck Wagon Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Would have so much rather paid Humphries $ 8 mil a year (or $9-$10 if that's what it took) than Kroft $ 6.25 mil. 1
Kelly the Dog Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Meh. They spent 18-21m on a guy who is a #2 at position that is only 1-2 at a time. We still need a starting TE.
