Royale with Cheese Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 Robert Foster. I actually don't think we have a 1,000 yard receiver. I think we'll have Beasley, Jones, Brown and Foster in that 500-800 yard range for all of them.
hondo in seattle Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 In an offseason with some silly, useless posts, I actually think this is an interesting question. You can make good arguments for and against each guy. I voted for Brown simply because he's the only WR listed who's actually had a #1 type season, getting 1,000+ yards a few years back. Zay's doesn't have 1,000 yards in his career yet. But I really don't have a strong opinion on how this will all work out. It's going to be fascination to see how this season unfolds with so many questions - especially on offense. Which receivers will start? Who will get the most targets? Who will be the starting five on the OL? How will the touches be shared among the RBs? Will Josh step us his game? Will Daboll step up his???
Chandler#81 Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 Which player leads the team in receiving yards? Given we play him twice, I’ll go with Stephan Gilmore. <hides under desk> 1
MJS Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 9 hours ago, Augie said: No, the way I see it is it means Josh has learned to look for the slot receiver/outlet. THAT says the most about Josh. I’m far more worried about Josh than the WR’s. He is the linchpin. So you are looking for Josh Allen to be different from most other good QB's?

MJS Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 3 minutes ago, Augie said: Umm, I’m curious....what does that even man? It means that slot receivers aren't usually the leader in receiving yards for most QB's. So saying that it is good progress to have Beasley lead in yards means that Allen would be doing something different from most other good QB's.

A little less bombs away and a little more moving the chains with accurate passes would be nice.
Kelly the Dog Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 I said Brown but I don't think any of them are going to even approach 1000, and that doesn't mean we won't have a good pass offense. I could easily see Brown, Beasley, and Foster all getting 700-800 and maybe even Zay having a bunch. The WR by committee approach will probably serve them pretty well, especially due to quickness and speed, not to mention that we really don't have a good TE even with Kroft.
DCOrange Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 I voted Beasley but I would guess it'll be him or Zay. I think Foster and Brown will eat into each other's snaps/targets too much to lead the team. Beasley has the most ironclad role on the team so I'd lean towards him but we'll see. I don't expect any of them to be particularly productive volume wise but think they could be a decent unit regardless.
whatdrought Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 I think Brown because he's gonna be a shoe in for 3-5 deep crosses a week.
LABILLBACKER Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 I choose Foster. Josh still has a little head start in Chemistry with him over Brown, but John will take some yards away.

Boca BIlls Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) Robert Foster will have 1300 yards. Beasley will have 85 catches. John Brown will have 10 TDs Edited July 26, 2019 by Boca BIlls

He has so much potential, listen to Beane say how they had him the highest rated WR in the embedded series if I heard him right. Thought about drafting him multiple times as well.

Buddo Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) Brown. Mainly due to being able to pick up large lumps in one go. Foster is still learning to become Brown, and early signs are that Allen has been able to find Brown without too much difficulty. I actually think it can only be either Brown or Foster, when you are talking about yards - either of them will get plenty of opportunities to grab big chunks. Fitness (or availability) will also play into it. If you are talking just receptions, then for the development we wish to see from Allen, you would want to see Beasley as the top man.(as others have already said) That should kill off all of the 'can't pass short' negativity.

Magox Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 Conventional wisdom would say either Brown or Foster due to their ability to shake free going deep and Allen's penchant to look for that. With that said, I think Allen will over correct and with defenses looking for Allen to go over the top with those two burners, I think Beasley will find himself with tons of opportunities to make plays. I think Beasley will be somewhere around 80 receptions for 900 yards Brown 55 receptions 800 yards Foster 50 receptions 750 yards Zay 50 receptions 600 yards I see a big uptick in passing yards this year.
Billsfansinceday1 Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 I said Brown but really had to think about it...and that is a nice change from recent years.
