Has Shakir overtaken Davis

[Billzgobowlin]

My issues with Davis is he is never in the right spot this year.

How was Davis fantastic with zero catches on zero targets? Gabe is that you?

Ok, first off anyone with the user name Roscoe Parrish should probably refrain from weighing in on anything WR related.

 

Second, I'm not referring to tonight. I'm referring to the days when Gabe was in that WR3 role and at the time looked like he would be fantastic.

[Airseven]

Shakir is a bright spot, no doubt. Hopefully he finds more success and consistency than McKenzie as his role elevates. 
 

His catch/run/TD tonight was a strike of confidence.

Keep Shakir in the slot and go after a legit #2 in the draft, we need to think about another #1 too, I have to imagine we'll have another diggs off season saga.

Yes WR is our top priority in this draft. Our defense will survive not getting a DT round 1 but this draft is special at WR. We’ll miss out on Harrison but Odunze is the guy I want. He’s a physical freak who has natural hands and man just look at the trust Penix has with this kid. Watch the last play of the Washington vs Oregon state game yesterday on 4th down to seal the win. He’s just clutch and would slide into the #1 job sooner rather than later…BUT even if we aren’t fortunate enough to nab him, this is a ridiculously loaded class. Beane better have some good scouts in the building finally to talk some sense in him not waiting until round 5 for guys who won’t ever produce in the NFL cough cough shorter. Hit on a sure thing early, which this class has a lot of.

He should.  Davis was MIA all night

Besides the 13 Sec game, Gabe has been basically MIA his whole career.  I'll miss him about as much as Edmunds.  Please try to land Odunze.

Might need to move up in the draft for Odunze, but I’d be all for it.

[RichRiderBills]

Yes

I think Josh is done even looking his way 

Gabe and Von. With these players on the field, the Bills are playing with 10 players on both offense and defense. 

[BananaB]

Remember when half the board had him being cut in August

Gabe should be WR54 

[ddaryl]

My guess is Brady called for less Gabe. The offense looked much better tonight.

Let Gabe walk and spend a first round pick on WR would be my plan. Would rather spend cap dollars to retain other talent particularly on defense with AJE and Dane being free agents. 

[Straight Hucklebuck]

Does anyone miss Gabe?

 

Nope.

 

He can keep running go routes to draw coverage.

He meant when Gabe was in year 1 and 2 as the #3 receiver 

[John from Riverside]

For this year probably
 

Next year, I would really like to see the bills go wide receiver in round one, keeping a Shakir as the number three receiver

 

Let’s build a team with guys that can get separation

That and Steelers last year. This year he has a bunch of TDs but they were like his only catches of the game.

[boyst]

I just can't compare the two. Apples and oranges. 

[Roundybout]

It's no surprise that something like six of Josh's interceptions this season have come targeting Davis.
