Oh please.   Really ?

 

Cole Beasley is a detriment to the Bills because he runs his mouth ?

 

Amazingly disingenuous.

 

 

It is amazing. This team doesn’t need his demeanor. Put your head down, work hard, and go home. Help the team win a super bowl. It’s not hard. Beasley has lost a step anyways. I’d much rather have McKenzie out there.

This just adds fuel to the fire: I don't expect Beasley to back with the team next year.

 

It's like things have broken down between him and management at this point, perhaps irreparably.

 

I didn't expect Beasely to be back with the team next year the moment he signed his contract. It seems clear it was designed to be able to cut him this offseason.

 

After this season, I can't wait for it to happen.

Offense is better with Mckenzie on the field.  More motion, helps the run game.  He is also a tougher matchup vs man coverage.

True or not it sure feels like Beasley has pretty much fallen off a cliff in production.  Yesterday it looked like he barely got any separation and just was kind of blah the whole game.

 

Just like John Brown last season, I don't see the Bills paying this guy next year (and I expect people to tell me I'm crazy again). There are quite a few FA who I think can step in and at least give us what he got this season. 

 

It's not crazy, Bease has been a great player for a long time going back to Dallas but he definitely is at the age and point of his career where he's probably going to continue to decline.

 

I know some fans think McKenzie is better or some sort of easy drop in replacement, but I would question that if anything because outside of the Pats game where he clearly played out of his mind he hasn't show a lot in his career either.

 

At the end of the day WR is a sneaky need and priority for this team heading into the offseason especially with the prospects of both Sanders and Beasely playing their last games whenever this playoff run ends.

The OP is prickly but has certainly been one of the most knowledgeable posters on this board for a couple of decades. He's not going to make stuff up.

Not doubting the OP knowledge, just trying to say I did not witness this occurring and was at the game/strong view of the sideline and coaches/players.

 

I've now had multiple people call me Karen's, which I find hilarious, for responding to the OP post (mind it not creating this story).

 

Again, I'm not certain what the OP witnessed at the exact time they saw it. .just saying I saw nothing and Beas/coaches didn't show any issues that I saw on the sideline or as they exited the field.

I bet if he was running his mouth about everyone getting a shot you would be kissing his ass.

 

You know exactly why you act the way you do.

 

And you'd be telling him to "shut up and dribble."

Personally I'd like to see them upgrade on BOTH Beasley and McKenzie this offseason.  A dynamic slot receiver who can break tackles, line up in the backfield, return punts (without the drama), contribute to the locker room (without the drama) - sign me up.

If we win a super bowl and he helps get us there, I don’t mind having him stay, but if we fail I want to move on from Beasley.

I didn't mention McKenzie only because he's on a 1 year deal and for whatever reason he seems to have a short leash with McDermott. I would like to see more of him but he doesn't seem to get meaningful snaps outside of gadget stuff. His pure speed + Allen makes him a threat for sure on the field though. I'd like to see him more than Beasley in the playoffs.

[todd]

My guess is he’s probably working through an injury. Plus, he just had covid, and that can linger a bit. Yeah, he’s a bit older but I bet he brings it during the playoffs. Last year all our WRs were injured for the playoffs, so I hope that’s not the case this year.

[papazoid]

i think this is beasleys last season

 

he will be a cap casualty for 2022 as they will allocate his cap hit elsewhere

 

$7.5 cap, $1.5 dead money, $6.0 cap savings

[Ross Murdock]

Don't we have interesting real things to discuss this week Vs. something made up? There's 20+ NFL cameras, and 60,000 phone cameras in the stadium, and yet NONE of this was captured? Beasley's hardly worth a ANY discussion at this point anyway. He's irrelevant.....  I "thought" I saw a few of the Kardashians, fighting with Kanye at the game. Maybe I'll start a thread on that.      

[John from Riverside]

I didnt see it.

 

That said I think the chances of Cole's return after this year are extremely low.

[bills6969]

What a fall from grace.  Bease was so good for us last year.

An upgrade to a WR who can get YAC is a massive need. 

[TBBills]

Beasley won't even be with this team next year.

If he helps us win a Superbowl, great, but do you expect him to contribute to the team in the same way next season? He's lost a step and is a huge distraction breaking an agreement that all of the Bills players made and Cole decided that he didn't need to abide by it. IF this occurred and it's not the normal level of 'frustrated player' that occurs during the game, then that's a huge distraction / unacceptable actions right before the playoffs .

I noticed that Gabe and Diggs each had 14 targets yesterday and Cole only had like 3. It could have been the gameplan he didn't like. 

And there was a game this year where Cole caught 11 balls I think. 

He needs to go this offseason but I hope he makes a few clutch plays in the playoffs. 

BB likes to take away one of the WRs. If its Diggs then someone else needs to step up and Allen needs to stay patient.

Honestly I value players like McKenzie who have talent and don’t run their mouths during the season. I want football, I want players to put their head down and do their jobs and win. If people want to use their social influence for whatever cause, they should do so off the football field. Even if it’s for a great cause. 
 

I guarantee the vast majority of posters here don’t go into their work place and shout slogans at work or give their bosses an ear full. Generally people don’t want that. Beasley is wearing out his welcome for the same reason as others.

I believe Diggs and Davis both had performance bonuses that were in reach.

McKenzie is known to run his mouth quite a bit...  on the field. The Bills players talk about it a lot, but he does it in an endearing manner that makes the guys like him.
