Exactly. Sort of defeats purpose of putting him on PS for Bills if this means other teams can sign him not year. Yes he is another body for practice but that is not much especially since due to NFLPA there is very little contact practice.

Not nearly as blatant as other drops throughout the preseason from football lifers that also havnt shown the ability to break 2 different huge plays in minimal touches. And ANY Back on the roster could have done the same. In the same situation as wade. 1

PromoTheRobot Posted August 18, 2019 Posted August 18, 2019 2 hours ago, Rochesterfan said: Do you not think the coaches see him in practice? Do you not see that his teammates love him and the plays? It seems pretty obvious that they recognize his talent, but he is not ready for a more extended role. In training Camp he routinely struggled getting his hands right for a simple handoff - and was getting one on one training with coaches and players from what I saw. Yet we still saw issue that in his one carry in game 1. He is learning things like how to block, but he is still a long way from being ready to handle routine Blitz pick-up or understanding the timing of swinging out to get a dump off. He struggles understanding blocking - including downfield blocking by his own guys - as seen in game 2. Even if he made the 53 man roster - he would not be activated on game days. They are not sitting McCoy, Gore, Devon, or Dimarco. They 4th RB is most likely Perry or Yeldon - both of which would have specialized roles on either special teams or as a 3rd down pass catcher. Neither of which Wade is ready for yet. I just do not see a team utilizing a player on both the 53 man roster and the active game day roster that is so limited in experience that he can only be used in a a few plays - especially if the league has designed a way for you to keep him and let him learn on the PS without losing another young talent. Wade has a ton of talent and upside and it is infectious to see how the team celebrated his 2 plays, but right now he is a professional athlete playing against 4th sting guys that he is simply more athletic than and the team does not seem to think he is read for extended time even in the 4th quarter - let alone moving up to play against the 1s and 2s. Just give it time and be patient and let the team do what is best for Wade and the Bills. Exactly. A year on the PS learning the complete game. He could well make the 53 in 2020.

All articles I've read make it sound like he makes it to our practice squad provided the Bills place him there. There's no mention of him having to clear waivers. My question has been that it seems obvious he doesn't have to clear waivers to be 11th PS member. But then he can't play. What happens if the Bills WANT to have him available this season and put him on the PS as one of their 10. Not the freebie. Surely he would have to go through waivers. But can they do that is the question. I haven't seen that addressed in articles. 2

I believe I saw this being discussed yesterday and I was under the impression they could put him on the PS as one of their 10, but he would be subject to waivers beforehand. I was looking up everything I could find on this yesterday and came to one conclusion....There's nothing but vaguely written rules regarding this program.??

So you are telling me Shady couldn’t have scored on that run against Insurance Salesmen? Or even Singletary though he did it in College against the same talent over and over again? Comeon. 1 1
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted August 18, 2019 Posted August 18, 2019 My point is to say Wade isn’t a special talent is a cop out.

Singletary has gone against the scrubs too. LMAO. Shady took one 75 to open the 2nd half against the jags in 16. Regardless he ain’t doing it at this point in his career and if he did he wouldn’t be pulling away like wade was. 1

It’s the dude passing up people like they were standing still. That ain’t shady or Singletary. And it definitely isn’t gore Edited August 18, 2019 by Stank_Nasty

The fact that you actually watched how quick wade pulled away during that run and think shady has that sort of top end..... is absurd.
