Based on history your right. Based on recent events maybe not. Time will tell. One thing is for certain, the Rooney’s will not tolerate it and a shake up will happen if the rails come off.
Totally agree- they have been a consistent, winning organization for some time. I saw a team last year that was just average, an aging QB, AB leaving, etc etc. I see the Steelers 8-8 at best- just my opinion- cheers!
Not necessarily a beef- he is very raw and I dont see him being ready in year 2. Also, slow and unable to pull really limits play selection/execution. Hopefully he continues to improve.
Yards equate to first downs, better field position, and TD’s. It is pretty important stuff. If we already had a complete, upper echelon TE on the roster then I would say sure, lets sign Dwayne, but we dont.
I hear ya- and im hoping the Bills get more production with Allen than the previous QB’s have in recent times. What I really expect out of a TE is this- get tough yards, move the chains, run block, be a red zone target, and split the seam which makes the defense accountable to him. A complete TE would be a huge addition to our team. Thanks for all the stats- it adds nice value to this board- cheers ?
Not even remotely true- I just dont want a TE to be a one trick pony. Regardless, I doubt the Bills try and sign him anyways. Allen needs a pass catching TE in the worst way.
I dont want to sign a TE just for camp fodder. Maybe he pleasantly surprises us if we sign him but his production suggests otherwise the last 2 seasons.
Nope- a pass catching TE that has something left in the tank- his pedestrian number the past 2 seasons suggest other wise.
This years draft is loaded with TE prospects. Every position is a “crap shoot” if you really think about it. We deserve better than what we have had. I dont think any team expects 800- 1000 yards out of the TE but 400-500 yards along with 6-8 TD’s would certainly be nice.

2017-2018 seasons- 13 for 113 yards. We need more than a TE that can just block. Lets get some actual NFL linemen first.
Yeah, we can just cut him in camp ?
