He was a very efficient 1 cut runner, who had decent speed and power. But exciting? Not really. He was a solid complimentary back. That's all 1

Okay, who's turn is it to start it in June? Sorry, I’d do it, but I’ve already drawn the “We should hire Jim Kelly as our QB coach, Steve Tasker to run STs and Darryl Talley to oversee the LBs” thread. 2 1
machine gun kelly Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 If he had a season in the CFL, if there is one, and was an alter boy and in tremendous shape, no problem at least as a camp buddy the following year, but I doubt any of that would happen so pass. People typically are condemned at least some of them to repeat their own mistakes. I seriously doubt as well Moss doesn’t pan out. We are set at RB. 1

Mountain Man Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) The more interesting RB debate for me is the suggestion on a Bleacher Report UDFA article that Antonio Williams could take Yeldon's spot. It'd save over 1m in cap space and Williams is a special teams guy which is a big help for your RB3 https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2890548-every-nfl-teams-undrafted-free-agent-most-likely-to-make-their-2020-roster Edited May 9, 2020 by Mountain Man
PromoTheRobot Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 I'd bring Cam Phillips back from the XFL before Karlos.
Jpsredemption Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 He outplayed McCoy that year when he was on the field. An incredibly sad story. What a future he had in front of him.

Do consider this would be his fourth chance, 1st chance was getting drafted by the Bills, then suspended 3 times after his initial chance, this is chance #4, not that some team should not sign him but. It ain’t his 2nd chance. Maybe the light went on finally, but up to this point the guy is an incredible dummy. 1
Kirby Jackson Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) I’m all for second chances when guys make mistakes. This is especially true for young guys. With that being said, he’s been out of the league for years. When last seen he was fat and out of shape. He felt entitled to that NFL job. Now maybe he’s been humbled and will do the things necessary to EARN that second chance. The next step there is this CFL contract. If he goes out and shows that he can play still an NFL team will welcome him back. The ball is in his court now. Edited May 9, 2020 by Kirby Jackson 1

Pete Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 7 hours ago, LB48 said: Karlos played just one season in the NFL with the Bills. He was drafted in the 5th Round in 2015 and in his rookie year he averaged 5.6 yards per carry. At 6’1, 225 lbs he was a force out of the backfield with 4.48 speed. Williams had a couple 100-yard games in ‘15. He finished his rookie season with seven touchdowns. He tied an NFL record by scoring a touchdown in each of his first six career games while being a back-up to LeSean McCoy. Karlos was suspended 3 times by the NFL for violating the substance abuse policy. He was released by the Bills in 2016. These suspensions have now been lifted. In 2020 he was signed by the Toronto Argonauts in the CFL as a free-agent. At age 27 - - does he deserve another chance in the NFL and in particular the Bills? Not with the Bills. Rob Riddick had 12 rushing TDS for Buffalo. I don’t want him on 2020 Bills either. Karl’s is not process guy. I trust Beane 1

Did his ypc lead the team in that season? I don't recall.
soflabillsfan1 Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 I wonder if it's sunk in that he absolutely squandered the opportunity to make life changing money.
WideRightRevenge Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 He did blow it ... but was fun to watch that year .. he was a wrecking ball ... too bad he didn't have McDermott as his coach from the beginning may of been different outcome 1
wppete Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Hope he does get a chance but not with the Bills right now, we are good at RB.

Interesting. A Williams seems to be the forgotten man. Maybe this kid has a lot of game. As for Karlos. If he shows he can still play AND he has grown up some, I would give him a shot. Guys are young when they come in the league. A lot of them were not taught how to act like young adults or had good role models. I don't think he did anything horrible. He seemed like a fun guy to be around. Carefree personality. If he can still run, he should and will get a shot with someone. Talent is talent.
