Allen to Sherfield times two

[BillsFan619]

We’ve been hearing good things about him. Starting with Dolphin players and fans sad to see him go to JA bragging on him to having a solid camp. What do you guys think Sherfield’s ceiling is with this team?

 

I know it’s just training camp, but just when you thought you’ve seen all the throws from JA, check this out! Nice grab too.

 

And check out this one handed grab.

Go Bills!

Sherfield is a big body at 220-plus pounds but seems to have better than average speed and reports (I haven't watched him play in games) of good hands. Clips like this inspire hope but even mediocre players make great grabs in camp once in a while.

I'd be very happy if the camp reports aren't another summer illusion but point to what we can expect in the regular season. I think with Diggs, Kincaid, Knox, and Davis, there's not a lot of pressure on Sherfield but I'm hoping he turns into a pleasant surprise as maybe WR 3 (not including Kincaid who is said to be a bigger slot WR than TE).

Most impressive thing there is he isnt wearing gloves. THAT is impressive

honestly no idea what to think or make of this guy yet. He’s had a great camp. Hopefully he fills out that WR3/WR4 gap and gets his numbers. His numbers basically being what he put up last year in Miami. His catch% is not great though.

Hopefully he’s gold. Not fool’s. In conversing with a few of Miami fans they are bitter about not retaining him. Even more so that he came to us.

That throw is absurd. Allen routinely attempts passes that very few QB’s in NFL history could dream of converting.

 

When a human drives a football on a rope like that, they engage the brachialis, forearm flexor, extensor muscles and ucl.

 

Suffice it to say, his elbow is healed.

[Doc Brown]

Very good special teams player who can hopefully take that 4th/5th WR role.  Good blocker for a WR so hopefully Gabe won't have to play 90% plus percent of snaps again.

Not overly enthused about Sherfield. He's far from a top 3 option but will probably make some sporadic plays for us

I think that’s the role they want for him. If he plays his way on the field for more snaps, hey, bonus. He’s not a top 3 option right now…that’s Diggs Gabe and 🤞 Kincaid. Knox and Cook out of the backfield. 
 

He’s not a prime option but injuries can and will happen - if this guy shows up that’s fantastic.

[davefan66]

Don’t know anything about him.

 

From those two catches, he looks to have soft hands and smooth runner.  Hope he can elevate to become a productive 3rd or 4th.  Hopefully Shakir can fill out opposite him.

 

Harty and Shorter are probably 5 and 6?  Who else we got! Isabella?

[billsbackto81]

He's pretty much solidified the 3 spot so far. Josh is gonna make him a very rich man next year.

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

Sherfield has a real chance to push Gabe for serious playing time. If anyone on the roster is going to take Gabe's spot it would be Sherfield. As others have mentioned, at 6'1" 220lbs he's not a small receiver. Seems a good chance that one of Gabe or Sherfield will be on the roster in 2024 but not both.

He was the third option in the best receiving corps and most efficient passing offense (with Tua in, or at least close to it) in the league last year 

[Slippery Rubber Mats]

I really liked him as the Phins #3 guy. Really generic name holds him back though

[BillsFan130]

Seems like a good player, but how much can we really expect?

 

Thats not a knock against him.

 

But you for sure have Diggs, Kincaid, Gabe, Cook, Knox ahead of him for touches.

 

I think his most valuable assets will be run blocking and special teams

 

 

[Mr. WEO]

Diggs did NOT look happy....

[Chicken Boo]

I like Sherfield.  I liked him when he was in Miami.  He brings an Anquan Boldin type of effort and toughness.  

 

I sincerely hope he gets opportunities.

Sherfield could be a be a temporary fill in as we wait for Shorter to come along. As I agree I think Gabe is gone as not sure we can afford him unless he does a Milano below value contract to stay here. 

[Magox]

Looks like between Harty, Shakir and Sherfield there is a lot of quality depth at the #2 and #3 WR spots.   Assuming they can stay healthy and with the addition of Kincaid, I think the offense could have its best year yet under Allen.

Depends how much playing time he gets, I think 35 catches with 500 or so yards with 4 TDs is realistic if he in 60% or more of our offensive plays (see slot WR). Yet think he's also below Harty in terms of touches.
