Buffalo716 Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 4 hours ago, TC in St. Louis said: He mentioned that in 2018 Zach led the nation in total yards from scrimmage. That's pretty impressive, right? 3 hours ago, Mark Vader said: Definitely. Also, you have to give a lot of credit to Utah's coach, Kyle Whittingham, for the Utes being able to produce some very good teams and players during his time there. Utah is not an area where people automatically think of great college football, even with Brigham Young's moment of dominance in the mid 80's, but the Utes have a come a long way and have become a top team in the Pacific 12. Utah has been a good program for probably 20 years now And I don't think that coach was correct about him leading the nation in yards from scrimmage in 18, that would have been Jonathan Taylor Moss was 11th last year in yards from scrimmage

billsfan89 Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 Zack Moss was a really solid pick. I think he will be a quality 4.3 to 4.5 ypc between the tackles runner. I think by the end of their first season together Moss and Singletary will be viewed as one of the best young RB duos in the league. 4
C.Biscuit97 Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 A college coach likes his own player!!!! Shocking. ? and Moss is a baller. Loved him at Utah. We still lack a home run hitter but it’s a really nice combo.
Utah John Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 I got to be a Utah fan while living in Salt Lake City. I love this guy. He plays with the heart of Freddie Jackson. You will love him too.

I thought we were screwed when we passed over Dobbins (taken next by the Ravens who are swooning over him here in the Baltimore area), because Moss was going to be gone before our next pick, regardless of how much we might move up. Getting him in the third made everything good again. Dobbins and somebody else at #86 is nowhere as good as Espensa and Moss. I think we were damn lucky. I think that a coming thing in the NFL is the small fast running back who is also a legitimate wide receiver. Swift, Helaire and Gipson are such players. I can see why Beane was so anxious that he was willing to proactively trade up to prevent some other team from doing so. Gipson is more of a gadget RB/WR that doesn't run between the tackles and is more WR we were told. He is pretty tall to be a between the tackles runner. The other two taken, Dillon and Vaughn, are lesser talents at this time. Moss has shown much more as an all-around player. If we had the typical war room video of the draft, I bet we would have seen lots of smiles, high fives and back slaps after pick #85 was made. Lucky indeed. Edited May 4, 2020 by JESSEFEFFER 2
maryland-bills-fan Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 (As I said before the dual WR/RB may be the coming thing,, but) What I want to see is if this kid could do the things that T.Thomas used to do. The Bills hike the ball to Kelly in the shotgun. 3 WR and a TE. The OLine sets up in pass blocking and the waltz partners push around while Jimbo drops back and looks downfield. TT helps block somebody and the saunders a few yards deeper than the LOS. He talks to the linebacker: "Hey, do you guys have submarine sandwiches in the locker room at halftime?" "Shut up, I'm busy now" is the reply" from the linebacker. Kelly lobs a 6 yard pass and TT takes it 23 yards for much more. That is what I want to see from Moss this coming year.

I kept my online name. I was John in CA, then John in VA, then Utah John. Grew up in West Seneca and WNY is still home.
John from Riverside Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 I just love that we were able to use a 3rd round pick to get a quality player like that......again That is 2 running backs in the 3rd round......we know Devin S. has got it and hopefully Moss does as well......allowing us to use our top 2 picks on Diggs and AJ

CapeBreton Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 I think Moss will turn our way better than Dillon and Vaughn who went ahead of him. Same as us getting Singletary in 2019 after David Montgomery and Darrell Henderson went before us lol. 1

Happy Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 1 hour ago, chris heff said: I can’t remember exactly, but it was something to the effect that he told everyone that EJ would not be a successful QB in the NFL. Well, he was right. Buffalo was definitely not the right environment for EJ, who had no chance of succeeding here, especially as a starter. I'm a little surprised at the number of coaches who warned on their former players as you and others in this thread have pointed out.

They had 7 guys drafted. When asked about Zach Moss, he said he thought he was the best running back in the draft (of course he would say that). He said he can do everything. Run inside, outside, pass block, catch passes, and he's just a great player. He said he thought he would be a very productive NFL player for the Buffalo Bills. Solid, Pete. Probably not worth its own thread. Clyde Edwards was the best but im happy with Beastmode Jr. What is door dash?
