Buffalo86 Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 John Brown doesn't want to play for the Bills. Besides, they would never sign him after he spurned them last year.

I think Duke Williams is more than fodder, I think they are hoping he can be the big target player that KB was supposed to be. 1
Doc Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 No surprise. I figured he and Foster would be 1a and 1b with Beasley being #3. We'll see if Zay makes a case to supplant any of them.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I see- So the thought here is the Bills highest paid WR may be the #1 WR? What kind ins of evil geniuses are managing this team??
Da webster guy Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 20 hours ago, Mark Vader said: I share this concern. He does have an injury history. It's no shock that Brown will more likely be the #1 WR, he & Beasley have the most NFL experience on the team. So who will be the #2 WR? Foster? All of the speed receivers have injury concerns. Hard for them to put up a full season, but if they can do it, the numbers will follow. Goodwin did it (not for us), and Brown had a big year himself a few years ago.

I like Brown signing a lot, but while he stayed healthy last year, his two previous years weren’t so lucky. So like I said, my main concern is him staying healthy. Not claiming he is frail or anything, just that he dealt with injuries in the past. Injuries are always a concern, but I have a real good feeling about a Josh Allen, John Brown connection.
YoloinOhio Posted July 27, 2019 Author Posted July 27, 2019 3 days in, this appears to have been accurate Josh Allen to John Brown is working Josh Allen found new receiver John Brown several times early in camp, but the connection was strengthened Saturday. Allen hit Brown on two long balls, one along the left sideline and then on a seam route toward the center of the field. Brown has elevated himself to No. 1 receiver status with his play early on in camp, even without an official depth chart put out by the team. He’s taking the majority of first-team reps with Robert Foster sprinkled in as his primary backup. On Saturday, Allen’s arm couldn’t out-throw Brown, who continued to push it down field. Brown nearly hauled in a highlight catch on another deep ball on the right sideline, but it came loose as he was tumbling to the ground. Still, it was a perfectly placed ball from Allen. Last year with the Ravens, Brown, 29, had 42 receptions for 715 yards. His longest reception was 71 yards. In 2017 he was with the Cardinals and caught 21 passes for 299 yards.
aristocrat Posted July 27, 2019 Posted July 27, 2019 Allen Locked into the longball is a dangerous thing man. 1

whatdrought Posted July 27, 2019 Posted July 27, 2019 I'm just wondering if Brown is gonna keep 15, or switch to 13 if Bolden get's cut... I'm also wondering why I always care so much about numbers... I'm also slightly upset that WR's don't ever wear 80-89 anymore. 1

His 5 seasons: 16 games 15 games 15 games 10 games 16 games He has dealt with hamstring issues every year except last year that has affected his productivity in each season. He may suit up for games an average amount, but expect him to be banged up and not produce. In addition he had a pretty bad concussion a few years back and he has sickle-cell anemia.But yea, #Roasted Evidence for his ailments for those that didn't follow it when it was happening:https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/B/BrowJo02.htm After breaking out his sophomore year starting 11 games and breaking 1000 yards with 7 TDs, his next two seasons with the cardinals: 6 GS 517 yrds 2 TDs 5 GS 299 yrds 3 TDs That's a big reason he only got a 1 year deal from BAL. If you're expecting much more than 650 yards and 5 TDs from him, you're expecting him to be something he's not, in my opinion. Edited July 27, 2019 by BullBuchanan
