Mike Gesicki is a free agent. Would the Bills take a flyer on him?

[Draconator]

 

It's known that Gesicki can't block, but he can get open and can catch the ball. Would you want Beane to sign him?

[GoBills808]

Hasn't every player whose contract is up earned the right to be a free agent

[JohnBonhamRocks]

I just don’t see him being more cost effective than Morris. 

[Conlan58]

Wouldn't be a bad guy to try at slot receiver...

[Bangarang]

I’d rather we learn to use Knox more instead of signing someone else who won’t get the ball.

[FieldGeneral]

Unless he plans to take a huge pay cut, I doubt it. OL, WR, RB, and DB are far more important.

[WideNine]

That guy used to kill us.

 

He is totally underutilized in the new Dolphin offense.

 

He is solid, great route runner, very good hands, if we had the cap to bring him in - definitely.

 

 

 

 

[JGMcD2]

He’ll be too expensive unfortunately. 
 

I love the talent, but I can’t stand the guy. 

[billsbackto81]

Gesecki is gonna get paid at least Top 10 TE money.

 

We already have an under utilized  TE making big money.

 

Plus I happen to like Morris who I believe has untapped potential.

[frostbitmic]

I think Gesicki will get starter money someplace and be too rich for the Bills cap, I prefer Knox over Gesicki.

[GolfandBills]

Another 10+ million a year tight end?  Highly doubtful 

[CNYfan]

I think the Bills have one high paid tight end and will use rookie deals on the other TE.  I would not be surprised if they look for an upgrade on Morris, but not an expensive one.

He can catch the ball?!!?!?!?! Then yes bring him on!

[davefan66]

No.  Cost is prohibitive.  Need to sign our own FA’s - Poyer, Jordan Phillips, and Edmunds.  Maybe Singletary.

 

Don’t think Gesicki is the great a TE anyways.

What do you have against him?  I love the talent but can't stand the cap limitations.

[realtruelove]

The Patriots will sign him.

The Bills favor tight ends that block but can’t catch over the inverse. Hard pass…

 

and he seems like a tool to boot. 

 

 

[Pete]

The draft is deep at TE and I wouldn’t be shocked if Bills draft a TE in first 3 rounds.  A blocking TE frees up Knox, and a route running TE would make us tough to stop imo with different packages

[Thrivefourfive]

We don’t use the talented TE we have now. Gesicki is a poor man’s Zach Ertz. He’s a good size big WR. I don’t see enough creativity in this current offense for him to even warrant a roster spot, let alone being of any use.

I mean probably both

 

Josh Allen was literally throwing a ball out of the back of the Endzone in the playoffs last year that Dawson Knox caught

 

I think that’s more improbable than the Shakir catch which is a really really good NFL coach… But not as improbable as Dawson catching a throwaway Almost 9-10 feet in the air and getting 2 In in bounds 

 

I think the scramble and the throw and Knox climbing the ladder and getting 2 in bounds is more improbable when you put it all together 

 

though live at the game my jaw was dropped when shakir made the grab

 

Shakir can high point a ball.

 

Knox always baffles me. He will sporadically drop the easy catch that is right to his hands on a crosser, yet will dive in the EZ and make a one handed grab around a DB and still have enough body control to get a knee in bounds with just a few inches to spare.

 

Apparently he needs the difficulty level to be set to near impossible.
