PDaDdy Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 How strong was he at the point of attack? How was he vrs the run? Those are the ??? when talking about Maybin. You can only get so far with quickness. We need him to develop in those other areas of the game. It's preseason but I haven't noticed him being a liability in the plays I have seen him in. At least it seems that our coaching staff has the tiniest bit of fire under them. Normally we would rather play an injured or under performing veteran than a rookie that is a little rough around the edges. Think Terrance McGee getting torched by Ted Ginn Jr. in his coming out game. I think they are using the Bills Parcells philosophy with Maybin. Find out what the kid does well and put him in a position to use those tools and succeed. Screw Kelsay and Denney! Play this guy on every down and cover him up with a linebacker and and let him go bonkers on opposing QBs.
LABills08 Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 You can't judge Hardy until next season bc of the injury. It just stupid to call a rookie WR a bust after one year.

Absolutely agreed but some people unfairly still are. The guy caught 2 of a pitiful handful of TDs we threw last year. In my book that's huge. You can talk about leadership and poise and all the other BS intangibles but TDs put point on the board. This guy catches them when given the chance.

Yea I agree with that completely. That was my main argument about how you can't call him a bust is when you look at the TD's rookies were putting up, Hardy put up a decent amount in comparison. Also (and I am only 100% on this), but I believe we only threw 13 passing TD's last year. Losman threw 2 and Edwards threw 11. 2 TD's is 1/6th of what we threw so...
DELLAPELLE JOHN Posted September 4, 2009 Author Posted September 4, 2009 i hope maybin breaks brady leg!!!!!!!!!!
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 I've been saying all along this is a big time playmaker as I saw him play at PSU. Guy will be a Dwight Feeney for us. Wait until he gets in better shape, bigger and matures, He's only like 21 yrs old.
DELLAPELLE JOHN Posted September 5, 2009 Author Posted September 5, 2009 maybin is the next derrick thomas!!!!!!!!!
Bad Lieutenant Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 judging from the few plays that showed our DL, McCargo looked very good when single-blocked. And oh my god did Byrd look so slow on that 78-yard touchdown run. In fairness to Byrd Tristan Davis is a real burner with sub 4.4 speed. http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dspro...09&genpos=R
ThereIsNoDog Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 So I guess we can say that he DOES have a "lightning first step."
