He used to carry Ted Dibiase’s money around but they had a falling out.

Virgil and Joe Dibiasi had a baby and he is on the local reason station.  It’s weird

WR elevated from practice squad to take Samuels place.  Any know anything about him?

 

Yes. If you swap the last consonants in his first and last name, his name would be Jalel Virgin.

So we walk into the bathroom and at the urinal, fully dressed and ready to go was Ted Dibiase and Virgil!  They said hi to us, washed their hands and then told us to enjoy the show! If I remember correctly The million dollar man fought hacksaw jim duggan.  We wanted to go to see Demolition vs the British bulldogs. The only memory I have though is the Million Dollar Man flushing the urinal and washing his hands.

 

In that order?

He seems like Denver's version of Tyrell Shavers. An Undrafted Free Agent that looked good and impressed them enough to keep him around on the Practice Squad for multiple years. They tried to get him back on the Practice Squad, but we must have saw something we liked in Scouting him.

   Looks like a good kick return man. High end speed, great decel and acceleration, good moves and hard to bring down.

  Not a great route runner but really good with the ball in his hands.  Powerfull runner with good size, we'll see what he can do. 

I hope he is a diamond in the rough..

He could be our Da’Rick Rogers!

Is he still going to have time to do his few thoughts about the game?

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Bold prediction: 

 

He is inactive and Brady goes heavy 12 personnel all game 😳

[Comebackkid]

if he sees the field he's primarily a decoy/poor blocker.   

[Tulsabillsfanz]

That college highlight video shows Virgil has plenty of speed and agility. If he’s smart, he’ll hang around Cooper and learn route running and the finer points of being an NFL WR! 

[Ya Digg?]

I sure hope his top quality is catching the ball, not blocking…although having blocking as your best wide receiver attribute somehow that makes you a starter for the Bills 🤦‍♂️

I like this move. He looks good. Hopefully he takes advantage of this opportunity. 
 

 

Very much like Samuel, gadget type player.. Accept 2 things. 

#1. This dude can return kicks

#2. He is NOT afraid of contact

 

Pro's

Good speed. 

Good at finding the ball in the air.

Solid hands

Has no issues blocking CB's

 

Cons. 

Not so good at rout running

If its not some gadget play, he struggles with bump and run.

Not great with body positioning on crossing routs. 

 

 

Personal Thoughts

If we use him the stretch the field on the other side,

If we use him as a gadget player, It opens things up in the middle of the field.

 

Is he going to get play time cause A... He looked real good in practices,  B.... Samuel ha not been producing or  C.... All of the above.

 

I would say C all of the above and lets hope we get lucky huh?

well then maybe Virgil is being given a shot to take over Samuel’s role. Honestly I think Curtis should be put on IR for 4 games to hit the reset button on his Bills career and health

 

To this point Samuel really hasn't lived up to all the hype that was being talked about when they brought him in so give a younger guy a opportunity you never know what they might be able to do with it, if his stats are better then keep him around .

Samuel has been declared "out" for the game after DNP all week with a "pectoral" injury.

So this isn't a referendum on whether Virgil might be more productive than a healthy-enough-to-play Samuel.

He was listed day by day and many thought he would be back.

Raiders elevated Justin Shorter they knew this forum was going to push Beane to sign him to the 53. Now we have now Isabella and no Shorter. 
 

What are we going to do now?

at the very least, a more useful MVS

This should once and for all bury the memory of the late great James Hardy.

 

Just sayin'
