It is clear that our OWN player, Singletary, is far superior, and clearly seems to have dramatically more left in the tank then washed up Elliot, who has not looked even average in years. Motor sucks. He's horrendous. It blows my mind people love this guy, he's bottom tier percentile size, speed, strength, everything. If he wasn't on the Bills you wouldn't even know his name. https://www.mockdraftable.com/player/devin-singletary Dude was the starting running back on one of the highest powered offenses in the NFL and NOBODY WANTS HIM. Take the hint. Good riddance, he's held our offense back. Addition by subtraction. Edited March 20, 2023 by ArtVandalay 2 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Romes Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 I’d rather try stay as squeaky clean as possible on the character front. I think you get more calls that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet his numbers are better than a lot of the backs in the league on a team that consistently changes the blocking scheme to something that doesn't fit the personnel. Nobody wants to pay any of the running backs says more about the value of the position than the player. Blows my mind how many people hate on him.

Better yards per carry than Derrick Henry, in an offense not geared for the run with a weak rush blocking O-line. Blows my mind how people think he sucks when that objectively isn't true. He's been running people over and greatly improved in the pass game this last year. *edit* I should also add that although I don't see it much here, the concensus on Twitter is that he's a fumble machine? He had all of 3 fumbles this past season which could have been 0 or 6 based on which butterfly flapped its wings on any given week (aka small sample size, flukes happen either way). You don't see people calling Derrick Henry a fumble machine, who had 6 fumbles on double the touches for about the same fumble rate.

Take the hint. Good riddance, he's held our offense back. Addition by subtraction. Interesting how you attack his potential, his physical attributes,and then just throw in "everything" after, as if to cover the rest, his actual productivity? If he was so bad your post would have legitimate stats on his actual production in the NFL rather than his combine results. But you cannot include those, as they indicate a dramatically better player than the one you define so poorly. One of the top 15 in the league in yards per carry, #6 in pass protection for backs, and one of the better receivers too. All on a team that refused to use him or make anything of their running game this year. And 25 years old, durable, and a great team guy. And just because others in the NFL may not see his value does not mean it is not there--we see this over and over again in this league. "He held our offense back"!! Facts, stats? And then, another cliche thrown in at the end, of course!: "Addition by subtraction." 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabstblueribbon Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Hunt seems to me like a more powerful, slightly slower version of James Cook. Character issues aside, I think he might be the best fit as far as "attainable" backs that remain. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Depends on how much he wants. Same goes for Zeek. Dont need to go wild for a situational back. Yes, I think Hunt is a solid all purpose back. Damian Harris seemed to have his best games against us I think he would be cheaper and a good compliment to Hines and Cook. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is, which is why no one wanted him and why the only team that was interested was the Texans as a backup on a 1 yr deal. Must break your guys heart to see this happen.

Averaged the same yards per carry in a much friendlier run offense and has missed about 30% of the last 3 seasons. He's just a different type of runner. They both were drafted the same year, Singletary has 50% more rushing yards and more than 3 times the receiving yards. Both have 20 total tds in their career. Career scrimmage yards Singletary- 4,177 Harris - 2,375.

Career scrimmage yards Singletary- 4,177 Harris - 2,375. Yards pet touch Singletary - 5.0 Harris - 4.9 When it comes to YAC, BUF’s offense is friendlier for RBs. Harris had a washed up Cam Newton and noodle arm Mac Jones to take the heat off the running game…teams played the run time and time again. Defenses have to defend Josh Allen, preventing them from doing the same against Buffalo. Cook, in his rookie year, averaged 5.7 YPC, a full yard higher than Devin. Cook and Devin share a lot of qualities, Buffalo needed a physical presence at RB to pick up the tough yards. The less we have to rely on Allen to do that, the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
