SCBills Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Just now, White Linen said: I kept getting the feeling this hyped up depth at WR was overblown. Potentially .. maybe seems that way because so many went early. We got Gabe Davis in the 4th and Khalil Shakir in the 5th in deep WR classes as well. Are there those guys on Day 3 this year? Well see.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goin Breakdown Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 3 hours ago, Meatloaf63 said: Can Shakir handle that load and responsibility? A lot to ask for Diggs in his prime, not so much the second half of last year. Good question. But Shakir has to be better than Diggs (last year) if fed the ball just as much right? Maybe not BUT maybe. It'll be fun to see. Man I hope so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsgoodtime Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) 3 minutes ago, VW82 said: It's really not that bad. Kincaid is great receiver. He's going to get a much bigger role. Samuel is solid. Cook catches out of the backfield. Coleman looks like an upgrade over Gabe. It's just seeing Shakir out there in place of Diggs that's going to be jarring. Bet we see more 12 personnel this year. Its really that bad, check out some opinions outside of TBD Edited April 28 by Gunsgoodtime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 29 minutes ago, Gunsgoodtime said: So on TBD Shakir is better than Diggs. Only on TBD, literally. Shakir was better than Diggs down the stretch last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaenon Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 3 hours ago, HappyDays said: Nope. And apparently that's just how Beane likes it. Really disappointing. He came right out and admitted that "other needs" took precedence. Shavers and Shorter are basically bonus rookies at this point who have direct playbook experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFan Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 11 minutes ago, VW82 said: Said this in other threads, but I wonder if the addition of Davis will free up Cook for more snaps lined up as a receiver. Despite the contrarians on this thread, I think with Diggs gone, Brady (and thus Josh) has the freedom to try anything and with all the skill personnel. We will see 12 personnel (Kincaid and Knox), we'll see Cook split out, Samuel in the backfield and we could easily see Davis and Cook on the field at the same time. The most exciting thing is Josh is no longer handcuffed having to feed Diggs. My bold prediction for this coming season is we'll see the most dynamic offense Josh has ever QB'd. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry jones Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 If they didn't address the defensive side of the ball, it wouldn't have mattered who JA is throwing to. Heading in to this offseason, the defense was and still is a greater liability than the WR position. With that being said, this roster is very much still a work in progress. Could be a rough season but I think it is setting up better for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard it on TBD No one is saying we're a better team. Clearly, we took a step back. Beane acknowledged it was a transition year. We had to restructure everyone and cut and trade a bunch of our best guys. We had holes to fill all over the roster. You're mad because we couldn't do enough at WR. Everyone is mad about that, but there were like 50 things that needed to happen over the last few months to even field a somewhat competitive team and Bills managed to accomplish like 47 of them. It's not bad. Edited April 28 by VW82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggs' diva attitude caused JA to force way too many balls his way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Call it what you want, rebuild/reset etc. , but 2024 is not a year the Bills front office is targeting a deep playoff run. In expericened OC, in experienced DC, HC without a deep playoff run resume, new players across the roster. Its pretty much Josh being good enough to win the AFC East by himself, and hoping for some random playoff magic. Hopefully this season can help set up 2025 for a deep playoff run.

Hopefully it gets our gm and coach fired. Then we can move forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBF81 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 4 hours ago, TheyCallMeAndy said: Primary: Dalton Kincaid Curtis Samuel Khalil Shakir Keon Coleman James Cook Will get targets: Mack Hollins Dawson Knox On the roster to compete: Justin Shorter - 5th round pick KJ Hamler - 3rd Andy Isabella - 2nd Still a few solid WRs in FA we could bring in for a season, but they won’t break the top 5 targets. If last season wasn't good enough regarding the WRs on hand, how on earth are the same people that thought that going to reconcile that this season is.
