I know this is said in jest, but if Brady knows anything about what he's doing it should only help. I stumped hard for a 2 TE base set this offseason because (let's face it) our most dynamic weapons are Diggs, Knox, Kincaid and Cook. 12 personnel puts them all on the field at the same time. It's just that Dorsey had some sort of mental block that made them incapable of using them in anything interesting. Brady appears far more likely to start in a 12 base, then motion Kincaid to put him against a LB while leaving a blocker in to bolster the right side. 1 1 Quote

I mean, we can go to 22 with Fournette if you want. If your argument against using a personnel grouping that lets use use Kincaid as a chess piece is we have a bad #2 receiver, I'd say you're missing the point Quote

If your argument against using a personnel grouping that lets use use Kincaid as a chess piece is we have a bad #2 receiver, I'd say you're missing the point I think Gabe puts us at a disadvantage if we are going to pass out of the formation, versus running the ball. He can block, he's just not reliable nor a good enough target opposite Diggs. He's easily single covered. I don't care about the Eagles game. He's had 4 solid games all year. The rest he's been nonexistent. We've been using Kincaid just fine without Knox. We don't need both of them on the field that much, and Knox looked to have taken a step back this year with the drops. Last thing we need is more untimely miscues from either of these guys the next 5 weeks. Yes, I know they will be on the field. We're stuck with that. It doesn't mean I'm going bang the table for them to be. 1 Quote
ngbills Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 This is not a jab at Kincaid but I want to see more from him. The Bills are using him a safety valve more often than a down the field threat. He has been better the last few games. But I am not overly impressed at seeing him catch a two yard pass and go down. I want to see him downfield catching balls past the sticks, I know he can do it. Just watch the tape from college. The truth is on 90% of his catches the way the Bills have used him it could be Q Morris or most NFL level TE's catching a quick dump off. That is not why we made him a first round pick. 1 Quote
NoName Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 What about Nick O'Leary? And the other TE who would paint his nails a weird color. Quote

I originally posted the Costa card as a joke but then was shocked to see that he actually owned the record at TE for most receiving yards in a season! 1 Quote

Still bitter about that fourth round pick, are we? He's having an exceptional rookie year, and should be a weapon for years to come. Quote

He's having an exceptional rookie year, and should be a weapon for years to come. It's an honest question. He was picked too high for a TE so they said think of him as a slot WR. Well as a WR he's not making much of an impact compared to other WR's that were in the draft. You can get a good TE later in the draft. Look at LaPorta. You draft based on value. Taking a TE in round 1 is almost as dumb as taking a RB. There's almost always players available that will give similar output later in the draft. It's just not good value Quote
Matt_In_NH Posted December 7, 2023 Posted December 7, 2023 The bills history at te is kind of pathetic. I expect Kincaid to have the top 10 te years in bills history before he is done. Quote

I understand the Bills dont have a lengthy history of great tight ends, but I think its a pretty big accomplishment given he is playing on a team that already has a "pro-bowl" tight end on the roster. To be honest I was a little blown away when I saw his season was on pace to set the standard for receptions and yards by a Bills Tight End, despite his talent, I feel like his ceiling is a long ways off. Let's hope its only up from here. I hope the kid ends up reaching both standards and sets the bar nice and high from Bills tight ends from today forward. Next year he will probably attend TE University and learn from the best. 1 Quote
Maynard Posted December 7, 2023 Posted December 7, 2023 Kincaid was my number one target for the Bills. Surprised McPenis went for it. Quote

Barring the unforseen, he will shatter TE records in Buffalo. He is already the best TE the Bills have EVER had and it's really not close. 7 minutes ago, Maynard said: Kincaid was my number one target for the Bills. Surprised McPenis went for it. Are you 5?

Why, because I’m pissed off at our HC and GM? 5 years and these idiots have done nothing to help our generational franchise QB, outside of Diggs. They finally get Allen a legit weapon and guard this last draft. Kudos on them, albeit late. However, I can’t throw an insult at them? Whatever…. Quote
