Tipster19 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 With Asante Samuel getting tagged, that will leave Graham on the open market. He would be a huge upgrade to our TE position and we have plenty of cash to spend. If we can sign him this will omit one less concern going into the draft. I sure would like to see us use a first day pick(s) in addressing our offensive line. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's averaged 12 & 1/2 games per season.....& missed time in all 5. Apart from that, RR is not a huge financial burden to keep......he would be a great addition to the team.

It's just that we have to many other holes to fill- which I think are higher priority. Like og,ot,mlb,dt and cb to name a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipster19 Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 I know, I'm just name grabbing, wanting a former 1st rd pick who just happens to play in our division. It's not an area that we should be too concerned with, we're loaded with TEs. I don't know what I was thinking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JStranger76 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I've been on the Graham babdwagon for a while now. I know we have other needs and we'll take care of some of them. I'd just like Graham as well. We'd have a very solid 2 TE set. And no, it's not just cause I've heard of him, which is getting pretty tiresome around here.

JoeF Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Listen to the press conference--Marv said they believe Royal can do a lot more but they had to keep him into block too often on passing downs. Said TE was not a priority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills Fan888 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I don't care who it is as long as we get a good receiving TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogger Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I know it's not a good example, but when the all powerful sporting news projects us drafting a TE first round, maybe just maybe Royal is a good fall back, but not the answer. Graham would be a bargin, he is a better version of Royal, he's an excellant blocker and runs routes like a WR. If I recall correctly prior to the beginning of last year they were talking about running a lot of 2 TE sets, but do to injuries and failed talents, we were unable to do the things fairchild wanted. What I really like about graham is he is an excellant FB too, several times during the season they would line him up in the backfield to lead block. A two TE set will give JP more time to throw, as soon as one of the LBs looks to blitz, make that TE a hot route, if a safety moves up throw it deap to Evans, not to mention the running game will improve. There are so many options when you have a good 2 TE set. and we can't hope that we'll fine one late in te draft, there isn't that much talent there.

BADOLBILZ Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Listen to the press conference--Marv said they believe Royal can do a lot more but they had to keep him into block too often on passing downs. Said TE was not a priority Royal can definitely do more in the passing game. More throws, more drops. Good blocker, let's keep it that way.

Adam Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 My only concern would be his injury history. He's averaged 12 & 1/2 games per season.....& missed time in all 5.Apart from that, RR is not a huge financial burden to keep......he would be a great addition to the team. WHat about MY injury history? Is nobody going to express concern about that...getting hurt sucks.....what about me....and what about RAVEN!

BillnutinHouston Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 We should pick up Graham for two reasons: 1) Whitner would no longer have to cover him. 2) Royal never learned how to drag his feet after a catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 We should pick up Graham for two reasons: 1) Whitner would no longer have to cover him. 2) Royal never learned how to drag his feet after a catch. Give the guy a break...He made one mistake and you are pounding him for that...Royals was a good find for us. He made plays for this team. I think Whitner will be fine covering TEs in his 2nd season.....Usually safeties break out in their 2nd season.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuile Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 The Bills seem loaded with TEs, but not a TE like Graham, all-around game. I would not be mad if we signed him, but can you see Marv dropping big bucks on a TE? I am not sure he feels that is a postion worth the type of money graham will command.

Git'er Done Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I think Marv made it clear that they like the TE's they have and just feel that with better line play, the TE production will improve. They aren't gonna go after Graham.....give it up. A good fullback could come cheap and contribute in a similar way to a TE, are there any free agents out there worth a look?
