BruceVilanch Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 With the signings of John Brown and Cole Beasley, I think it is a vote of confidence from the front office and coaching staff for Robert Foster and Zay Jones. I'm not saying they won't draft someone but I think this shows that they have confidence in the development so far in Foster and Jones. I think Robert has a chance to be a #1 and Zay can flourish when he's not the second best wr on the field and Brown and Foster will open up the middle for him. If we draft TJ Hock this passing attack could look borderline scary. Go bills! 1
Virgil Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 If all are healthy and good, we did well out of the spread formation last year. A part of me wonder if Zay is on thin ice though
Mark80 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I think Zay is a dead man walking. Williams, Brown, Beasley...the writing is certainly on the wall for him. 4
Rc2catch Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 It’s all on Allen. No target monsters, can he spread the ball around? If he can, we got something now. No way you run those 4 receivers out there and nobody is open. 1
BuffaloBillies Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Keep 'em all. Should be fun! Zay was looking good second half of season last year. 1
Clyde Smith Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Duke Williams can wind up being better than both. 2
TigerJ Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I think Foster is safe anyway, and probably Zay Jones too, but for Zay I think it means more competition for touches and playing time. In other words, he's going to have to make his reps count, or they could start to dwindle.
White Linen Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Zay as I've been stating for some time - is going not given a starting spot. He'll earn playing time or won't play.
bmur66 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Training camp and pre season may have some good competition
DJB Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Not many guys with size and height in the WR room. That's a slight red zone concern

That's a slight red zone concern Foster is big, if Duke can earn a starting spot that's two big dudes right there. I see what you mean though. Not many little guys are durable in the NFL. We have McKenzie, Brown, Beasley all small quickies.

SCBills Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Josh Allen is a Red Zone weapon, and we could draft, say, Hockenson to give us Kroft/Hockenson in that area of the field. Regardless, Foster-Beasley-Brown-Zay is a legit WR group with McKenzie and Duke as depth.
racketmaster Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I think Mcbeane wanted some experienced and professional WRs in the room next year. Guys that can be counted on to lead the room and have consistent performances. Foster can learn from the veterans as will Williams and possibly McKenzie. As for Zay, I think it spells the end of the road for him in Buffalo. They did not pay Brown and Beasley that much to sit the bench and Foster showed to be a much greater wr last year. That puts Zay at best the 4th wr but the Bills brought in Williams for a reason and he will be ahead of Zay as well because he is the one wr that offers the bigger body red zone presence. As the 5th wr, Zay will not be kept unless he becomes a special teams ace so I would expect the Bills to try and make a deal involving Zay while they can. 3
FeelingOnYouboty Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 We played a lot of 4 WR sets towards the end of the season. I'd say this is a big vote of confidence for them. Still think we add a mid round WR in the Draft but these 4 are getting majority of the snaps. Now if Duke Williams shows us something #eyeballemoji
Logic Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I think it shows they DO have faith in Foster and Jones, AND that they wanted to add some veteran presence. JUST adding rookies to an already young WR room wouldn't have been the best move for a young QB.
