Receiving concerns on offense

[Jerry Jabber]

Glad to see I’m not the only one who wanted an upgrade at the #2 WR position.

While I’m glad to see the Bills try and address the O-line, I’m not sure they’ve done enough to give Josh good/quality targets. IMO, going in the season with Gabe Davis as the #2 WR is a mistake. Davis underperformed last season as he struggled with drops and contested catches. I feel Davis is a better #3WR than the #2 WR. 
 

Trusting a rookie TE to be your slot guy is a huge risk. Would rather see a veteran WR in that position while they break Kincaid into that role.
 

I’m interested in seeing how the Bills use Harty and Sherfield, but neither guy has had eye-popping stats. 
 

If there are no further upgrades to the WR group going into the season, I have concerns about the WR’s outside of Diggs. 

Me too!  I wanted and expected Beane to go out and get a second STUD to catch the ball, and he did not.

 

The OL changes are further band aids from Beane.  Apparently, these guys just don't value the OL at all, but they are in love with the DL, despite it not being very good.

 

I guess we could still sign some name out of nowhere, but I doubt that happens and I don't see how the overall picture on offense will be a lot different.

 

Pray that Diggs remains healthy and happy.

WR2 is a legit concern, but Ken Dorsey remains a massive ?

our offense was extremely predictable with route concepts, especially down the stretch

I'm still wondering how we managed to finish so high in offensive rankings

Figured I’d revisit this after the first game. Had 13 people disagree with me when I first posted this thread. 
 

Looks like Playoff Gabe only had two receptions and did not do anything to take the pressure off of Diggs. The other WR’s that were brought in didn’t do anything of significance. Sure, there’s blame on Dorsey and Allen, but this looked like the same crappy offense as it did against the Bengals.
