Don Otreply Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) I have been frustrated with some of the personnel choices on both sides of the ball on occasion, it’s as if the association with certain players is more important than performance in some instances, frustrating for us fans for sure. The Yeldon usage is a case in point. Go Bills!!! Edited January 26, 2021 by Don Otreply
Nuncha Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) When a RB who spent the entire season on the practice team outperforms your starting RB...you might need a new starter. Singletary should be the one buried on the practice team. Edited January 26, 2021 by Azucho98 1
Helpmenow Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 What was the purpose of signing him. Yes for depth. Should have been used properly. Along with Kroft as well 1
BillsFan130 Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 I have been saying for most of the year that he is the best running back on the team. Now that isn't saying much as singletary is underwhelming and Moss has been "Ok" this season.
C.Biscuit97 Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 He was the best back but that’s not saying much. Only somewhat negative thing about this team is the rb situation. After spending 2 3rds on them in back to back years, we should have more production out of them.
T master Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 He did and they should have road him a bit more . Before the game i read where the Raiders beat them by the Chiefs not covering well in the short middle of the field and it didn't look as if they were attacking that very much but we can all second guess it now . They will watch the tape and learn from it can't wait o see what Beane brings in next year you know it will be good !!

It must be that our starting RBs have been so slow. I felt the same way watching Williams. Yeldon should have been more involved. I'm not sure why he was stuck inactive most of two years when he might have been our best RB. 1
foreboding Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Yeldon was easily better then Singletary out there. He rarely gets tackled for a 1 yard gain, which seems to be Singletary's go to play. No idea why he wasn't used this year. So much bigger than our tiny little fellas. 1
Helpmenow Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 And he was cheap. I can’t see him staying here

And I think he fumbled in a preseason game last year...

He will be playing for someone next year. He will never be a star, but I see him as a very productive 3rd down back--especially on a pass-happy team. Know any teams like that? nope, can’t think of a single one.
MJS Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 3 hours ago, Over 29 years of fanhood said: Yeldon will always be a mystery to me. Two years on the 53. Spot reserve duty only... my only guess is he can’t figure out pass pro maybe? As a pass catcher and runner he’s Looked better than Devin this season in limited action. I mean, he played only a few snaps. It's hard to really compare them.
TheBrownBear Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Yeldon is a mystery for sure. Never understood why Jax didn't give him more of an opportunity after his first year either. He looks pretty good when given an opportunity. There must be something there (personally???) that is turning off the coaches. Moss was starting to show some things down the stretch before his injury and had basically eclipsed Singletary. He may surprise us next year with a season under his belt. 1
Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 4 hours ago, SoCal Deek said: Yeldon has the longest neck of any RB in the league. That could come in handy in short yardage situations. I feel like players with long necks tend not to do great. I think they tend to be very lanky players. Hodgins is another one. We'll see what becomes of him.
Pags24 Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Yeldon was better than Singletary and Moss, in his limited action. So I'm not surprised he played well in the KC game. TJ also ran really well in the Tennessee game when Singletary struggled badly. I was disappointed when he didn't get a shot at starting RB from that TN showing. My guess is that they wanted Singletary in there more for his blocking, which was consistently good during the reg season.
