Shady makes sense at 6.1 million cap hit and Singletary has played well. So has Gore—who is also great in pass protection. Williams is puzzling. Getting rid of a big redzone target is not a way to help a young qb. I just don't think that the opinions on Duke will be as high across the league. It's certainly possible that he gets claimed, but my guess is that there's better players that will get claimed before him. 2

He was a star in the CFL, being named Grey Cup MVP in 1979. He led the Cleveland Browns in tackles in 3 of his 4 seasons there, and had 4 interceptions in 1983 and was named second team all-NFL. He was considered so good that the Bills got a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd for trading Cousineau to the Browns. The Bills used that 1st to draft Jim Kelly. I remember that. Cousineau did have a few good years in Cleveland. The 83 draft...the year of the quarterback. 1

Shady makes sense at 6.1 million cap hit and Singletary has played well. So has Gore—who is also great in pass protection. Williams is puzzling. Getting rid of a big redzone target is not a way to help a young qb. Maybe he's just not all that good! He's a guy who got cut three years ago and couldn't make an NFL roster since. You can easily make the argument they should have kept him instead of McKenzie, or many will even say Zay, but the problem is you're really comparing a car with a dent on the left side against one on the right side, none are great. While overall I do feel our receiving group is much improved since last year, even our #1 guy I guess it's John Brown is maybe ranked in the mid 20's compared to other teams. Point is our WR top to bottom still aren't great, that's an area likely next year will work on improving, so no need to keep someone here who's not really that good to in turn cut another lineman or LB instead. You want the best 53 overall. It does appear that the legend of Kiko has been surpassed by the legend of Duke! At least Kiko did play a year. And he did save 10 people from falling over Niagara Falls. Edited August 31, 2019 by Ed_Formerly_of_Roch 2

I just can't figure it out. Guy has shown nothing so far. Beat me by seconds. I really don't get it. When I went to camp he was by far the worst WR on the field (and that doesn't even take into account the ridiculous custom tailored short shorts he was wearing - honestly looked like an idiot). Have to assume it's people suffering from Brandon Reilly syndrome 1 1

PromoTheRobot Posted August 31, 2019 Posted August 31, 2019 24 minutes ago, GaryPinC said: The biggest disappointment about the Shady cut was how strongly the FO was endorsing him before and into training camp. I feel like they could have been more neutral about him and have maybe created some mistrust within the locker room? Clearly bringing in Gore, Yeldon, Singletary, showed they were concerned about McCoy, which I was happy to see. But I was confused by how willing they were to continue talk him up. If you want to trade a player, it helps if you at least act like you value him. 4
