He has good hands and I can recall good plays where he catches the ball and has good YAC. You probably say that only because of that unusall deep ball to him, that was a broken play, but watch a litte of his tape, he is not bad at all. Expand Have you watched him try to turn and get up field after a catch? He looks like a fat kid trying to learn how to roller skate...I would know, I was that kid!

The new figure is his base salary+prorated signing bonus+workout and per-game roster bonuses. Thats from Jay Skurkis Twitter just now Expand There must be something that can be done with the supernumerary Bill. Just cut him, please.

But it is an example of where part of helping him is giving him better talent to work with. Two seasons ago our starting receivers were Kelvin Benjamin and Zay Jones.

If memory serves, Peterman had a couple of nice completions to open the San Diego game and then put a pass right in DiMarco's hands. It proceeded to bounce off his hands into a Charger's interception. It was all downhill (rapidly) after that. Expand It's amazing how many DiMarco fans conveniently forget that play.

Stefon Diggs and John Brown sounds a lot better than that! Expand Bills have done a fine job of seriously working on developing Joshes game Last year and a big swing with Diggs. Bills are all in the kid. and so am I. Continuity is good and always upgrading talent really good. adding a #1 WR is cherry topping. Everyone will look better this year IMO. Coaching and play calling as well. Dimarco gets another year and is not a slouch mentally or physically . Good to keep him at and agreed restructure. You can do better of course ans you can likely could do for other positions. Quinton Spain comes to mind. But they both fit this Offense moving forward. Go Bills
MrEpsYtown Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Just fyi, guys in this draft who are technically tight ends but can play play fullback. I know a lot of fullbacks go quite low in the draft, but these guys offer more versatility and can be on the field way more than the traditional fullback. Dalton Keene VA tech Jared Pickney Vanderbilt Thaddeus Moss LSU Josiah Deguara Cincinnati I really like Keene. He reminds me a bit of Juszcyk as a jack of all trades kind of player. Keene also put up some impressive combine numbers. He is also used to doing a million different things at Virginia Tech. The interesting one to me is Moss. If you could convince that kid that he’s basically Juszcyk and going to used all over the field, he could have some ridiculous upside.

JK Fan Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 I would like to see them use DiMarco more as a pass protector especially in the empty set formation. Keep DiMarco in for blitzes and use him as a pass option in the absence of the blitz. Works for other teams.

Pete Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Is DiMarco really a special teams ace? Or does Meyer Lansky II have incriminating photos of Beane? The only play I recall DiMarco was that ill fated deep out. Roster cuts were tough last year. This year some good NFL players will be cut by the Bills. It seems a shame to me that DiMarco gets a spot over some more deserving IMO, year after year. I'd rather have a 4th RB, or just about any other position outside K and P. That's my .02 1
