I just noticed like a night and day difference when Evans was out there. I found Evans to be a lot quicker with better cuts and speed. If they PS one of them, I felt like Evans looked better of the two.

Expand  

I don't care for Evans because he's constantly dancing and giving the jab step trying to break a run long rather than taking what's there. Yes he's faster and quicker, I just don't care for the running style because it doesn't translate when the speed of the game turns up in the regular season. He's a 4A guy like Jonathan for me.

He played pretty well for the Eagles last year and they signed him as soon as free agency opened so they must like him as a nice depth piece.  I'd take him over Andreeson or Spector.

Expand  

 

No. He really didn't.

So Dion Cain, who the BIlls signed exactly two weeks ago as a camp replacement, has actually made the team. Fantastic.

Cain is able...

They said the same about his dad. Frank isn't gonna win with size or speed. He is going to win with the fact he knows how to play, doesn't miss gaps and gets the maximum out of every run. He is a better bet than Ty Johnson IMO. But Ty plays teams and that matters for a 3rd back.

Expand  

At RB, knowledge of the game can only get you so far.  You need strength or speed, ideally both.  I'll be happy to eat crow if he develops into something great, and it's a nice story, but I just don't see the path.

To me, Fred would put his foot in the ground and would cut and hit the hole hard. I just thought gore didn’t have that and he also didn’t have the wiggle of the others on the roster. And he is not exactly a power guy either. I could be wrong (as I often am), but I just don’t see it. 

Expand  

Just remember, you didn't see Fred until he was 26-27 years old. Gore is 22. 

 

I dont know that he's got 4-5 years to marinate and bounce around the USFL which is the modern equivalent of what Fred did in Europe. This is why I say if he has the heart. Fred would not be denied. Gore has a hard road no matter what.

I'm with you on the upside with Johnson.  But I think he might be a Brady guy.  IIRC he became more involved last year after Dorsey left.  And, he has the speed to run the toss fairly well, which we saw now and again at the end of last year.

Does this mean Hardy is hurt?

Ty Johnson is also the better RB on offense….

Of all the guys out there, that is certainly one of them.

 

Hope he pans out. 

Expand  

They didn't like Hamler that much. Or at least they didn't want him in the roster week 1 and needed a warm body to get them through.

With Shavers and Shorter being cut, I believe only Shakir, Gabe Davis and Coleman are the only WR’s drafted by the Bills under Beane’s tenure to make the roster.

Correct if you don't count IR for Hodgins

Swap of late round picks two drafts from now.  LOL.  So we basically got him for nothing.

Expand  

Too late in the claim order, had to secure the return man with, supposedly, Hardy hurt

Interesting.

Is Hardy hurt or did he get cut?

I love that it appears Solomon has made this team.  An exciting young EDGE with speed, bend, and powerful hands.

 

Expand  

Same. I like what Kingsley Johnathan was doing but Solomon is price controlled. Von Miller would need a career season to not be a cap casualty in 2025 so I want a proto-Jerry Hughes in the pipeline

Obsessed but don’t like to make the hard decisions to make it actually better. Why is smiley still here and why is bass getting a free pass?

Lol what does that mean? Thank you for a job or thabks for the opportunity after getting cut???
