bills_fan Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 In the most recent ESPN the Magazine, it mentioned that the Bills redzone performance will be much improved due to the addition of Hardy and TE Courtney Alexander. They mentioned Alexander as a huge target and he is 6'6", 270. We haven't really discussed him much here, but does anyone think Alexander could be our answer at TE? His bio suggests journeyman, but the ESPN report makes me think there may be something more here.
SuperBills12 Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 I believe he's really motivated to show what he's got...I mean he got a 1 year contract from the Bills...Walker turned out to be a good pick up from Oakland, so maybe CA could be as well Also, I thought his last name was Anderson?
MattyT Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Courtney Anderson. Courtney Alexander. What's the diff? Both names sound like they belong to a sorority girl.
ch19079 Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 If all we had to do to get TDs was put a 6'6" guy im sure we would have just gone down the street and signed all the tall people we saw. There is a lot more to skill and ability than just your size. I have to see his skill and ability before we can start talking about how he will impact our season.

I kept calling DJ to see if I could get a try out at WR because I'm 3 inches taller than Lee Evans and he kept hanging up on me. I never understood why until now.
HurlyBurly51 Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Who wrote the article? If it's one of the local beat reporters, I wouldn't get too excited.
bills_fan Posted July 8, 2008 Author Posted July 8, 2008 Who wrote the article? If it's one of the local beat reporters, I wouldn't get too excited. It was a blurb in the NFL section in the back, I would have to see who wrote it.
BuffaloWings Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Well, with the depth they have going into camp, there should be some pretty good competition. The advantages seem to be Royal (experience with the offense), Anderson (size & experience), and Fine (rookie draft pick), but Massaquoi's size may help him. Schouman will probably only make the roster via special teams. Nevertheless, I like the looks of the TEs. Anderson could be a sleeper.
Lt. Dan's Revenge Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Didn't he get cut already? No, you're probably confusing him with Teyo Johnson.

I actually believe Schouman is going to surprise this year, based on ealry reports. He will probably be our #2, and could even challenge Royal. Now Fine otoh, would be the one making the roster for special teams.
obie_wan Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Didn't he get cut already? not yet , but give him time he did get by 3 different teams in 2007 ( Raiders, Miami and Detroit) so he must be good :
silvermike Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 This may be an ignorant question, but what would happen to a 7 foot basketball player in the NFL if he had the hands and played TE? It seems like you should be able to get a red zone threat out of him.

biglukes Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 Courtney Anderson. Courtney Alexander. What's the diff? Both names sound like they belong to a sorority girl. I think I hooked up with a Courtney Alexander at some point . Those sorority girls, oh boy.
Mark Vader Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 MR. ANDERSON....My name is NEO!!!! And your sequels sucked!!!
