Roundybout Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 I’ve been defensive of Bass so far, but I think he’s mentally shot. Missing kicks like last night’a 48-yarder that badly is pretty unfixable. McManus was excellent with Denver and was looking good with Jacksonville until he was accused of sexual assault. I think we should give him a look. 7 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCofNC Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 About the equivalent of Bass, though his short range stuff is good. I’m not sure how much more choice there is going to be with Bass, he’s cooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cray51 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Bills need to bring him in for a workout. Guy kicked for years in Denver, and understands windy/cold conditions. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 For any ex kickers out there, would it help Bass more to feel pressure or to keep the status quo? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackbeard Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 I would think he'll be in asap for a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 If they bring him in and cut Bass, we'll be paying for two kickers this year and next. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy kicked for years in Denver, and understands windy/cold conditions. Biggest thing the Bills will look at is his relationship with holder Sam Martin.

Guy kicked for years in Denver, and understands windy/cold conditions. I was going to write the same. A tryout hurts no one, and if worthy, a PS spot. All teams have their main guy, but he would probably be a good in the wings option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Wasn't McManus most recently signed by Washington? but I'm not sure if he ever kicked in preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Just another JAG. I hate wasting practice squad spots on kickers but Bass's inconsistencies should force their hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 His career FG% is 81%, Bass is 84%. Maybe Bass is trending low but McManus will miss some too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 It was strange last night in warmups as I was watching Bass and Tucker warm up towards the same direction (the direction Bass made his FG). Bass was making kicks from midfield, which is a 60 yarder with no rush. Tucker was actually short on a couple from the same distance. Clearly Bass' leg is not weak, his mechanics and mental makeup are weak at the moment. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 We are stuck with him I would imagine. Cutting Bass adds over 3 mill in dead cap money for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for our drafting character guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uticaclub Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Bass hasn't looked like a professional kicker for almost a full year now, he started trending down at the end of last season. If you regularly attend a Bills bar, none of the regulars were surprised when he missed against KC. Yes, he might get his ***** together and be reliable on another team in the future.

BullBuchanan Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 (edited) Nah. We already had one predator in our teams group we had to ditch, don't need another. He's also considerably worse than Bass.
