Not sure what other roster spot could sacrifice the depth. I hear you, BB-ATL, but that's not what I mean. I said non-special teamer. Go one extra man at RB. I am saying lose someone somewhere else on the roster. Edited January 11, 2021 by dollars 2 donuts

Time to review the past few active rosters and see where that luxury guy might be... 1

ngbills Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 Hmmm Heavy dose of Singletary Yeldon gets in the mix Williams off the PS Bring in Beast Mode...jk, dont think he could clear waivers in time anyway.

Agreed with this, too. However, and I am not trying to make a direct comparison as that would be crazy, but just making a point...The Chargers WANTED to start Taylor over Herbert. ...there's experience, yes, but sometimes in sports you just go with the hot hand. Hopefully, they'll use both.

Nextmanup Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 It looked bad when he was driving off the field but I hoped not this bad!
MasterStrategist Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 Many have said this, but biggest priority is pass protection and Yeldon brings that plus a bit more in the pass.game than Moss did (likely more than Williams too). We lose a bruiser type runner, might hurt us at the goalline but think we just use Josh. Otherwise Williams is a big wildcard in pass pro. Only the coaches know how he's acclimated to this in practice, but is often a difficult trait/skill for rookies to grasp

Hit the holes clean and broke tackles. I would love for him to start Don’t care if it is small I’d rather try something new and if it doesn’t work out then you know you can move on. I’d prefer not to try something new in the playoffs but I know Motor isn’t bringing what we need and I don’t think Yeldon will either.

Not sure Williams would be effective or as effective against a Ravens D in a playoff.

It has to be mentally crushing for any athlete to miss playoff games. Get better soon, we will see you back out on the field next season!!
HOUSE Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 Duke Williams, a WR/RB Sorry, I couldn't resist
Reks Ryan Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 3 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: I don’t really agree with this. He was the best option for short yardage pickup outside of Allen and very good blocker in passing game and blitz pickup Agreed. And although he got hit and stuffed behind the line on a couple 3rd downs, he did convert on at least 1 RAC and 1 Run bouncing off tackles for 1st down against the Colts. He has also done a good job of picking up first downs 4th QTRs to help close-out games when the opponent knew Bills were trying to run of the clock, Steelers and 49ers games come to mind. I don't understand why fans think it's so easy to replace quality players
