Possible McKenzie Replacement Bills sign Deonte Harty (formally Deonte Harris)

[Buffalo Boy]

   I hope he’s useful and utilized.

   But, I’m starting to sense a pattern that Beane like little fast guys.

    5’6” !?!?

    How about getting Josh a 6’2” receiver who can use his body to block out DBs and fights for balls.

Holy ***** what are we doing? Those numbers are insane 

Read above. This is actually a one-year contract with a cap hit of 3.7.

People wanted offensive weapons. This guy has upside and instantly becomes the fastest player on the team. I still think they need to add an OBJ type of guy, but no one should be upset at this. If KC really was bidding on him, that's a great sign. Cut McKenzie and you subtract like 3 million off this in my mind. 

[Kirby Jackson]

He’s a “Dollar Tree Tyreek Hill.”

 

This is a move that we should ALL be happy with. They thought the world of him in New Orleans. He adds playmaking that we desperately need with minimal cap damage (assuming Lil’ Dirty is gone).

In the draft

[Chuck Wagon]

Stupid move. 

[Warriorspikes51]

Can we update the title please? 

[ALLinALLEN]

If the plan this season is to have diggs and gabe go underneath while harty and mckenzie run go routes I'll vomit. Dorsey is probably pumped

Tyreek Hill is short. This guy is 4 inches shorter.

The initial contract was jarring …. AGREED

 

Actual numbers aren’t bad at all.  

3.7M cap hit this year.  Cutting McKenzie offsets is by 2M+. 
 

We’re signing a slot WR with return ability that ran a 4.3 … Bills are taking a swing on an untapped potential guy.  

He's 5'6" am not sure that's the best size for someone running routes. 

[MAJBobby]

Escalators tell all the story.  This is your starting Slot.

He's 5 foot 6 and was undrafted out of college. Has done nothing in his career. Zero reason to be believe there is much potential there. 

 

$3.7M cap hit is crazy. He seems like a minimum salary type of guy.

Reportedly we were bidding against the Chiefs.

I think he means that the Bills are just getting started and to expect more additions

  And, does the kid then sit on the bench ala Shakir even if he has better hands then everyone but Diggs?

Not trying to be a jerk, so please don't take it that way...but who is out there and available who fits that description? 

 

Deandre Hopkins? OBJ also does those things and he is 5'11". 

[Chicken Boo]

Yawn.  He'll return kicks and punts and be lucky to see 30 receptions on the year.  

 

Not an indictment of his talent, but of this staff.

He's a Pro Bowl return man, minimum too little but $3.7 too high. I'd say at most $2.5 million.
