Expand His whole first-down celebration when time was of the essence was just the ultimate dumb, selfish mistake. I don't know if that represents the rest of his play and everything else about him but that was one of the most boneheaded moments in NFL history that more or less cost his team the game. Doesn't mean he doesn't deserve a second chance, so I am willing to wait and see. Quote

MikePJ76 Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 I am alone in this thinking but signing Michael Gallup was the best option. He is great guy by all accounts, great in the locker room and fits the mold of the outside wr that they needed. Not a speed guy but a sideline guy that makes the hard catches. Giving him the prove it deal the raiders gave him would have made a lot of sense to me. Not a fan of bad locker room guys. 1 Quote
947 Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 I guess he's competing with Shorter & Hollins for the old Kumerow role. Quote
Mat68 Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 Has potential and probably the best path to make the roster and a role. Low risk full off season with a real qb maybe he matured and takes advantage. At his age athletic profile its a no brainer move. On 5/3/2024 at 4:37 PM, 947 said: I guess he's competing with Shorter & Hollins for the old Kumerow role.

NoSaint Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 You could do much worse as a 90th guy on the roster, but I’m not super thrilled either Quote
BuffaloBill Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 The Bills are really picking through the NFL thrift shop cupboards to fill out the roster. Quote

blacklabel Posted May 3, 2024 Posted May 3, 2024 All the negativity about Claypool is expected and probably warranted. But what if they feel like their culture can help him remove his head from his rump? Maybe he'll be motivated to catch rocket balls from Josh, who knows. And all aboard the Duane Train! Carter and Smoot shall revitalize the DL! I'm also aware that's not how either of them spell their first name but hey that's how my old spells it for himself so I went with what I knew. 😀 Quote

On 5/3/2024 at 4:23 PM, ColoradoBills said: LOL, I'll try again. First, I didn't say Big Ben's play was "garbage", so don't insinuate I did. Ben's play was falling off his last season. Even in 2020 when he had the 3800 yards, he threw the ball 608 times. In 2014 Ben threw the ball 608 times too. He had 4,952 yards. He wasn't the same QB at the end and everyone who watched football knows that was true. Expand I was responding to the previous poster who said Ben was garbage at the time. Then you also responded. But, yes, he had 4900 in 2014--but this was 1 of only 2 career seasons over 4500 yards---clearly outlier seasons so their comparison isn't particularly noteworthy. You could have pointed out that only 2 years before Claypool arrived, Ben had his career best season (his 15th!). 7550 yards, 55 TDs over 2 seasons--after 18 years--that's better than his career season average (even not counting his 2 game 2019). That's solid play. Quote
