Bills trade for Nyheim Hines

I’m guessing we still won’t see much from Hines again as he continues to learn the playbook.

It makes me wonder if they aren’t going to use him as a Slot WR/McKenzie role more than RB.  He hasn’t been a big weapon as a runner as much as he has as a receiver for most of his career.  With McKenzie looking like garbage, maybe that’s more his role.

“McKenzie looking like garbage” is an overstatement. He has made some boneheaded mistakes, but he has also come up big at times. That being said, they have to play Hines out of the slot.

Hines as a gadget guy with more touches sounds good

I guess we have differing opinions on McKenzie, as a WR, I’d rather he was inactive. Gadget guy, sure, anything more than that, no thanks.
