Maybe it says something about McBeanes faith in this line/scheme Weve not been great at offensive talent, which is a worry- but it’s a productive guy widely slated to go where he went and a position of need

The Bills drafted a gamer here. Let's hope it works out. I'm not negative on it. Just stating facts. At best it's an interesting pick. 1
BobDVA Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 who cares about a running backs 40 speed? It is about how fast you run and achieve 5 yards. If you average 5 yards over the course of your career, chances are you will be waring a yellow blazer. 2 minutes ago, akcash said: We traded back in! commercial of course

No that's fine with me, but it doesn't make for good average. This kid gets caught behind the line if they suck. It really is mini shady w/o the game breakers
The Duke of Pants Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Great pick. The kid does nothing but score touchdowns. Got quick feet and good vision. Plus, at 5'7" and 203 pounds, he's a tank. Love this kid. 1

The way I see it, one of the elders wont make it through camp without an injury so lete bring them all to Pittsford. Things will sort out there.
Nelius Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 And there's your TE, BillsVet! Happy to have both.

Check out these highlights against OU. For his style of running, he won't be able to hit the outside runs, NFL LBrs are too fast. Sure he can make some fast cuts, but there is no top gear. I sure as hell hope he proves me wrong. I highly doubt him being drafted means the end of Shady. This is the only team Singletary played agains that is even worth talking about and he got pancaked a lot. He doesn't have the fast burst around the edge that you need in the NFL. Players like Freddy are extremely rare, he didn't have the speed either, but he was a surgeon up the middle and in between the lineman. Devin only had great numbers because he was playing against the likes of Bethune freaking Cookman. 2

The only stock I take in that 40 time if accurate is he won't take it to the house when he really hits his hole. So.. 40 yard gains instead of 70 TD. You still have to have all the other tools to make that break out run to begin with and many don't have it. Makes the 40 time a hill of beans if they can't break runs often true

TigerJ Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 His teammate at Florida Atlantic was my super sleeper, Kerrith Whyte Jr.
