The most TE dependent of the top 15 TE's in the NFL last year...but he did have some big TD's for the Bills in the playoffs. He is in his FA year...so he needs to produce or they move on. Of more concern to me is the zero mentions of anything OJ Howard has done on the field. Zero.

I feel like Howard is a guy who just goes through the motions to collect a paycheck….no killer instinct

No…no he’s not…

lol, you're nuts.

 

Super raw prospect who transitioned to TE (a position that notoriously takes a lot of time)  from QB when going to college and had very little college production behind Metcalf and Brown.  

 

I'm sure you were just invested in calling him "stone hands" prior to last years breakout and are still ready to be "right."  He's done nothing but improve and is a TD machine who seems to shine in the big moment.  It's crazy to want to move on.

Knox has the hardest time consistently catching a football more than any other receiver on the team…that will always hold him back from becoming elite, if he can’t figure something out…

He had minimal drops last year and made a ton of clutch grabs for us.  Looks like he needs to go back to the catching exercises he was so focused on last offseason.

He had a 69% catch percentage last year- higher than Kelce.  And his career playoff catch % is 75% to go along with 4 playoff TD's.

 

He's a rising star at the position.

Yeah but people tweeted about two times he dropped passes in camp so far, sure no one has said he's been having problems with drops in camp, but clearly we should just focus on those two moments.

Yeah, I don't recall once being concerned about Knox's drops last season, at any point. Looks like he had...4. that seems pretty standard. It was a story in 2019, less of one in 2020.

When you have a history of it, that’s what happens…I’m sure Diggs drops 1 every now and again in camp, but it’s not a big deal because it’s not what he’s known for…

When I think about Knox last year, first thing that comes to mind is that spectacular catch he made in the playoffs against New England.  No idea how he managed to grab the point of that ball and still have the awareness to come down with his toes inbounds in the corner of the end zone.  That was a 9.5 in terms of difficulty.

Last season, Including post season, (11) that’s eleven TDs scorned by Knox, what the H else are we looking for? The goal is to score points right? Compare that to TDs scored by other TE last season, just sayin, 😁👍 Knox is right up their league wide

In practice maybe, but he made some really clutch catches in games last season.  Remember the one Josh thought he was throwing away?  I think he moves to an elite level this season, and I am happy he bought a house in Orchard Park.

Totally agreed. There was a lot of chatter on this board a few years ago about drafting him, but he’s done literally nothing his whole career. I’m glad we gave him a shot but I’m not particularly invested.
