John from Riverside Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I think saying, the quiet part out loud here would also help Whenever we brought in that tight end in free agency last year, we really thought we were going to a two te system Then he ended up getting cut That Hass to make some fans a little leery of the fact that we’re probably going to try to make that too tight in system work again But you have to have the horse is nowhere to be able to run it we’re not going to use Kincaid the same way they are really going to use him as a wide receiver and not a blocker What I envision is a safety valve in the middle of the field that knows how to get open and can run after the catch basically Beasley on steroids Let’s not forget Beasley was a wonderful player but the thing that made him special for us was his ability to get open to be that reliable guy that would get you that first down and keep the chains moving Kincaid can totally fill that role. We’re still gonna see Josh Allen taking shots down the field. Diggs is going to end up getting his and Gabe Davis is in a contract year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K D Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 2 TE sets are for teams that like to do play-action dink and dunks down the field. I know Dorsey wants to do it (because that's what he ran in college and that's what he knows) but we have a QB that likes to scramble and throw it 50 yards down field. It's going to take a retraining of the way Josh plays to be effective in that style of offense and it takes the threat of the run (Damien Harris) to get LB's to sink in. Not that it can't work but those things are not a strength of this team in the past few years so the offense is going to have to change a lot unless they are thinking they are going to be able to split Kincaid out which doesn't seem likely since he's a 4.7 guy and not a 4.5 or better. What makes him effective would be playing him on the line vs heavy fronts and then him sneaking behind the LB aka goal line situations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you think it was obvious the offense had issues last year and we never developed a coherent "game" all year long? That's all totally on the OC by the way. For God's sake, we brought back 2 corpses and had them running routes last year out of total desperation. They are wisely realizing that things need fixing and this guy represents part of the fix. At least that's the plan. We'll see what he can do on an NFL field. Josh needs a bunch more weapons; this guy should be one of them. Yeah, you don’t take a guy like this in the first round unless there’s a specific idea of how you’re going to use them otherwise, you might as well just take a blocking tight end at the end of the draft and not your waist the resource Kansas City deploy us to tide in sets Buffalo is copying it. It’s pretty obvious Dalton is our Kelce 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlbills13 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I love the pick. They will show more two TE sets and Kincaid will split out wide. I love Knox and you did pay him pretty good money but Kincaid is a stud. Also the more safety valve options you give to Josh, the better.

Just curious I think that they’re actually different types of te Either one would’ve actually been good, but I think Mayer is more like Knox I’m just glad that they did not draft a tiny wide receiver that we would’ve been stuck with for five years We got a legitimate target for our quarterback on a five-year cost control contract 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is really not true We have seen plenty of titans come into the league and be productive early He’s not going to be asked to be the guy here immediately. He’s another weapon in the toolbox. Diggs is gonna end up wanting his touches Davis is on approve it here for a contract If he can feel the Beasley role he makes perfect sense He could, however, end up developing into the guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why he’s not gonna be brought in here to block I’m sure he can give you as much as a wide receiver down the field, but he’s brought in here to catch passes not block 7 hours ago, OZBILLS said: Dorsey and McClappy handling their newfound toy... I mean you’re full of *****, but I found this funny 3 minutes ago, Solomon Grundy said: Didn't like the money they gave Knox. I think they’re expecting more out of Knox. There is something else to consider here. I think they are hoping for more production out of Dawson this next year, but this could also be a look to the future. If Knox does not pick up his production, they might be looking to get out of that contract, and they have already drafted a replacement. Blocking tight ends can be found easily in the later rounds. The bills are looking for playmakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the speed the definition of not panicking? He could’ve traded up the wide receivers were coming off the board, but he wouldn’t have to give up more capital than he actually gave so instead, he chilled He let all those wide receivers come off the board and then grab the best pass, catching tight end in the draft before Dallas could take him Sounds to me like he played it.

stlbills13 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I'd rather get a TE who can at least play situationally and maybe more while also still developing than a defender or o lineman who does the same. Get offensive weapons amd figure out the sets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) I agree with a previous poster that Quinton Morris is a fine -if wildly underused- TE, so the roster is now set at that position. Barring significant injury, no other player need apply. I also think we’re better at WR than most believe. Therefore, commit the rest of the Draft to OL & DL. If a Wideout they really like becomes available, fine. But we can never have enough solid OL and our DT’s are all 1 year guys. I no longer see a path to trading for DHop, so we roll with who we have and look to improve our lines.

I am probably the only guy that still thinks Quentin Morris is a stud if just given a chance! So I am going to say this I also believe that Quinton Morris is better than the bills have given him the opportunity to show But that’s the way that it goes sometimes sometimes a player Hass to come in with a sunk cost in them so that the team is forced to carve out a role and that’s whenever you see actual production from the position 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 7 hours ago, BillsFan130 said: I understand the game. Josh Allen historically likes throwing to WRS and prefers 11 personnel over 12. We underused our 14 mil tight end and now we traded up to get a tight end who’s great at pass catching, but can’t block well. Anything I miss there bud? Yes, I think you missed the point I think where you might be going down. The wrong path is thinking that Dalton Kincaid is going to be used in the same way as Dawson Knox He won’t What you saw a lot of last year was them keeping Dawson Knox in to block because the office of line wasn’t very good You won’t see that from Dalton Kincaid he is not going to be asked to stay in and block. He is going to be used as a wide receiver. And I think the reason why you don’t see Josh Allen throwing a lot of balls to tight ends is because Josh Allen likes separators guys that can get open. This is a guy that can get open in the slot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
