Would rather keep all 4 RB and jettison Gilliam.  Honestly I'd rather have Sweeney than Gilliam.  

I dont get this.... Gilliam fills in for RB, FB and TE (And I think special teams). Kind of important to have one player filling that many roles

5 RB's on this roster would be no worse than #2 on the 2018 Bills.

I like the philosopy.

 

Let em run the ball with 4 backs rather than have Josh carry it on a called run. 

 

He's proven he's the *****in man but it's time to have the backs do the heavy lifting between the tackles.

Agree, delicate balance for sure.  However, I think Bass puts it in the endzone anytime he wants.  Preseason, and 13 seconds (sorry), is the time to give looks on how the coverage unit looks.

 

I like Hodgins, and will root for him.  But the over excitement on him seems a bit much.  Through 2 preseason games hes averaging 9 yards per catch against scrubs.  Shakir for example has been substantially more impressive.  

 

And like I pointed out before, the last 2 years while fielding a pass happy #1 offense in the AFC, our 5th WR (McKenzie) averaged just 25 rec for 240 yards and no one else behind him even had a hundred yards on the season.  Hodgins will not play any relevant minutes at WR and will be a total non factor if we keep him at WR.  

 

He is a feel good story, sure.  He is very likable, sure.  But...if he cant be effective on ST's, he doesn't have a role on the team because he isn't going to see many snaps at WR unless we see a plethora of injuries at WR, in which we almost assuredly make a move to bring WR help in via trade or FA if that was the case.
