Ravens Waive DeSean Jackson. Should Bills sign?

[Bookie Man]

I wonder what his 40 time is now. He came out in the 4.3s iirc. I find it strange that players only run the 40 when coming out of college and then that is the time that represents them their whole career. It should be updated every year I feel like. I'm sure they do them at private workouts, but they're never made public.

It's not in their best interest to show the world and teams how they've slowed down. No player would willingly do this unless, early in their career, they did some speed training and improved their 40 time. But I think those guys are few and far between.

Didn’t he say he’d never go to Buffalo? I thought I saw that somewhere. He’d certainly have a role in this offense and I’d like to see it with Josh’s arm and a guy that can get open deep.

Surprised by this. Did he say or do something?

Come on, what has he done the last few years.....nothing

Exactly Weo man.  The guys like a hundred.  What about TO?  I hear he’s still doing sit ups and push ups in his driveway.

Sloppy seconds.  I gave that up a long time ago.

Maybe Bills can get a comp pick.

I doubt we would get a comp pick, but, maybe the Pats ** would get less comp picks

No. Look at the ravens starting WRS. The fact they cut him with that group should tell you everything

Yep. There was an ESPN the magazine article a while back where they tested to see if players ran faster with the ball in their hands. I think they used Bills WRs. All of them ran faster than their combine time but they couldn't report the numbers because the team and players said it would give other teams an advantage.

I know nothing about the situation but is it possible Jackson asked for his release after seeing how little he was used. 

[LyndonvilleBill]

We have John Brown already. Why would we add Jackson? It's not speed we are missing, it's someone to catch and hold onto the ball. 

[Locomark]

No, that’s what Brown is for and he knows the playbook. 

[Pine Barrens Mafia]

No

I was there scouting

 

And I remember being like what the *****

 

100% talent

… 0 % football awareness on the play

 

And I’ve seen it multiple times since lol

As an aside, I was in San Antonio this past week for a conference and randomly at the hotel with the players and parents of this All-American bowl game. Was neat to talk to these future superstars!

Yes but not well.  WR George Wilson went from underutilized WR to safety who started a lot of games and could catch.

 

 

Boy that video reminds me of how far we have come. Donte Hitner? Keith Ellison? 🤮

Yeah that's what I mean. Players usually get slower throughout their career and it would probably give leverage to the team signing, but I think it'd be fair to know their real 40 time. Just something I always thought about. Also, I dig the username.

[without a drought]

People seem to forget that the Bills still have KeeSean Johnson on the practice squad.

[Bubba Gump]

They just listed him on Ravens injury report with an illness. Where did you see he was waived?

If the RAVENS don’t want him, why would we? Have you seen their WR room?
