Bangarang Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 We took a flyer on him to see what he can do. That’s it for right now. I’m not ready to hype him up until he actually does well enough to make the team.

buffalobillswin Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I have no problem with slipping into DMs. I've done it multiple times myself (just not with famous people). You miss 100% of the shots you don't take!
glazeduck Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Think about Duke like a free lottery ticket... Sure, he's got a chance to hit, and if so, you're in the money with absolutely nothing invested! If he doesn't, and odds are probably against him hitting, it's (hopefully) nothing you were counting on as an investment strategy... Edited March 12, 2019 by glazeduck
VW82 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Part of me wonders if we'd be this excited about a guy named Fred Williams. There's just something about the name "Duke" that inspires confidence. Edit: also, the CFL is a great place for a WR to hone his craft. I've always wondered why more stand outs there aren't given the same chance. Edited March 12, 2019 by VW82 2
transplantbillsfan Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Personally, I'm not excited about the Beasley signing... I was very much hoping we'd get Humphries as our slot WR, instead. I don't have a ton of faith Williams will prove to be worth anything, but I'd love it if he did. Regardless, Brown was a really solid addition to our WR corps... just gotta hope he can stay healthy.

BmarvB Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I can see John Brown at WR with Beasley in the slot. Everybody else is competing for depth positions
LSHMEAB Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 I wouldn't rule anything out considering Foster's ascent last season, but he's Da'Rick Rogers at this point.

Caught for 730 his Jr year. Yes dominated in JUCO and high school. Did not make the rams roster in 2016. Auburn was run heavy offense when he was there. If you watched the games though, his talent still stood out and he made some tremendous plays. I clearly remember being "wow'd" by him numerous times.
BillsClinton Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 He's KB but can catch. I love him, which means he won't make the roster.

I'm sure McBeane will be drafting a receiving stud in the 2-3 round range to compete with Zay, Duke and McKenzie. I think Brown, Foster and Beasley are locks to start. 1

Cole has hands and foster earned that last spot last year. Plus two speed nbn guys and one of the best possession guys in the league. I like it, all three spots filled for less than one AB diva.
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 You can forget him. He will play a few preseason games and most likely never matter or make the team. If he was good he would have already been in the NFL

I think it compliments our current WR's and I also feel it spells the end of Mr. Unreliable, Zay "Hands of Stone" Jones. But lest we forget our own version of DK Metcalf who is already signed, sealed and delivered.....Duke Williams. What say you? None of these guys are established #1s but I think we are now deep at WR in my opinion.

Like with most situations with the bills it seems when we hard address a position.....then players you didnt count on end up being good........ I hope he is a bill for a long time already day dreaming of the 4 wide lineup with brown, duke, zay/beasley and foster. josh will set season record for 20+ completions. 3 hours ago, transplantbillsfan said: Personally, I'm not excited about the Beasley signing...
