GoBills808 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 30 minutes ago, HurlyBurly51 said: “Very impressed,” coach Sean McDermott said of Shavers. “Even if you go back to his rookie season, he's so consistent with his approach. Knows what we're doing offensively, systematically. When you look up consistent in the dictionary, like his face shows up in my mind because he's so consistent, and at a young age. lol is this an actual quote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about with Keon, Curtis, Hollins, Shakir, Kincaid, Knox, Shavers, did I miss anyone. Give me a break with this narrative. Pisses me off really.

Exactly this ^^^ This entire BS about about targets is frankly moronic, it’s not like the Bills offense isn’t going to be passing the ball just as many times as last season give or take, the only variance is that different players will be catching those passes, the nfl hype machine is obviously running out of things to blather on about when crap like this starts hitting the airwaves…, 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennstate10 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 7 hours ago, NewEra said: Yeah he might be a year of nfl weight training away from being able compete with the size and strength of nfl WRs and RBs PSU has a very good weight training program. He did 15 reps on bench press, broad jump of 10.9, and vertical of 42.5. These aren’t going to improve much. Hardy’s problem is size, and he’s not goin to grow. May gain 5-10 lbs, but won’t get taller. He’s very sticky in coverage. Reminds me of nickel Robey, but stronger. I’ll be surprised if he’s cut. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLFan Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 (edited) 4 hours ago, Beck Water said: It's actually 241 combined targets, so 200 understates it. May have missed Hamler, Valdez-Scantling, and/or Claypool, or at least one of 'em. I understand your irritation, but while we may hope and believe that between whoever makes the team we have the ability to replace those targets, until someone or several someones step up in actual games, the questions will be there. Do we expect the Bills/Josh to throw less? Are we saying that without Diggs and Davis the Bills are going to become a 50/50 run pass team? I do not expect the Bills to suddenly become the Tennessee Titans. If not, the targets WiLL go somewhere. The real question is what percentage of those targets will be caught and with what production. Color me not worried about replacing Davis’ mediocre production on the targets and snap percentage he received. It would be an upset if we were not better at that position in total. As for Diggs, we can do much better than his late season disinterested production. Edited July 31 by FLFan 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGovern is a guard not a center Why does McDermott always try to fit a round peg into a square hole? I thought Connor said it was his natural position , and wanted to get back to it ? Maybe knocking off the rust ? Best time to do it is Camp 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julian Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 54 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: I think he is already out even if he catches it cleanly. It isn't close. Odd play to clip up for a highlight. Probably because the difficulty level on the catch was high with a defender in tight coverage covering Coleman as well as could be expected, and Coleman made the catch. I’m sure the Bills media department is well aware of the “he can’t separate” following Coleman, so maybe this clip is a reply of “ so what ? “ to those parroting that narrative. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 LOL...Keon has been the star of camp with highlights coming out pretty much everyday. Yet we got some people who have been down on Keon not discussing any of those plays but instead wanting to argue about one maybe being out of bounds? Ok And who cares anyway? It was still an impressive clip showcasing his ability to go get the ball and control it through the ground, if he was out of bounds then its more on where Allen put the ball than Keon anyway. But hey...if nit picking this one play amongst a reel of highlights makes you feel better about pessimistic views, then do your thang 2 2 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kincaid will get more and then Coleman is the X factor. If he’s a decent wr we have a better set of receivers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said he couldn’t separate from Jamarcus Ingram in one on one’s. They weren’t being too negative, just pointing out that separation isn’t his game.

YattaOkasan Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 7 hours ago, NewEra said: I hear that, but S was one of, if not our biggest question marks going into the season. He’s our S with the highest value and biggest upside. Having him for an entire training camp would be very beneficial for speed of his development. I was really hoping he’d be a starting S out the gate week 1. Torrance took RG1 from Bates out the gate. Bates’ OG level of play is to level of S play of Hamlin and Edwards. missing time early will probably erase all chances of him starting week 1. Which is ok…. But I’d have preferred him to be better than the other two from the start. I remember a big battle between bates and Torrance that only became clear late in preseason. Also remember Bernard missing most of TC battle and getting the nod. I don’t know that it erases his chances of starting if they think he’s the best for it.
