I personally don’t see much/any potential in him at all. In 32 games he’s what, maybe had 3 good games in his career? There is a reason Zay is going to be dropped on the depth chart to start the season. It’s because he wasn’t good enough the last 2 years. He got demoted. He now has to EARN his job back as a top 3 WR on the team. The bills gave him all the opportunity in the world the first 2 seasons to produce and the guy didn’t get it done consistently. Pretty hard to argue that.

My point with the Justin Hunter comment was that just because someone has a respectable amount of TDS in a year, it really doesn’t mean too much. I don’t think it’s silly to have an educated opinion/prediction on what Zay will do next season after watching him and observing him for 32 games. Does that mean he is going to suck again? Not necessarily. But he has yet to show me he can consistently create separation and catch the ball effectively after 2 full seasons.

Why should it be a benchmark though? Pretty sure Justin hunter a few years back had 5 plus touchdowns and that doesn’t make him a top 3 WR. Zay is also not a W2 receiver. The bills upgraded at the position smartly. At best he is 4 at the depth chart behind brown, Beasley and foster

I don’t think there was necessarily a comparison. Was just saying from a Bills fan perspective who watches Zay Jones every game, 7 TDS does not tell the full story. We are strictly critiquing Zay as we are Bills fans and watch him closely and we are not comparing him to anyone.

It was actually a very true and fair analysis

About 3 posts above this there is a great breakdown by Alpha on Zays 7 touchdowns

Haha so you are making fun of people for defending Tyrod but you are doing the same thing for Zay Jones?

Fair points and I agree with all of what you said

Jones just doesn’t pass the eye test for me. He doesn’t have 1 skill that tells me he is going to be a good WR one day.

I legit think some people actually think Jones is descent though. Which is crazy

I don’t understand how people can still defend Zay Jones. Call a spade a spade. He has been a major disappointment so far in his career. Is he a bust yet? No but he absolutely needs to take a huge step this year

1 and 2 will be brown and foster Slot will be beasley. How will he not be pushed down on the depth chart from last year?

We are hard on him because he has a hard time catching the ball, he cant consistently get open, and he lacks game breaking skills. Jones got demoted on the depth chart this year with the additions of Beasley and Brown, and possibly even duke Williams. Make no mistake about that.

1 PM games are the best lol. Would much rather 1PM football rather than playing at 430 and a bunch of night games

Fair point. But just seems weird we now have McCoy, Gore, Yeldon AND this new kid now. They must be trying to move shady cause the math don’t add up

Which begs the question, why did the Bills sign him then?

Ran a 4.66?..

Absolutely insane. I think it’s fair to say that’s a HUGE red flag;)

Knee, back and weight concerns from my understanding

Tickets are on stubhub now. Is that from the season ticket holders?

Agreed sir

At Jets week 1 is going to be a tough game. More than likely the Bills will be underdogs heading into that one. But should beat Giants and Cinci

Is this confirmed?

Fair points. I would agree with all of that

Out of curiosity, what role do you think Zay is going to have going into this year? The Bills gave him a chance to be the #2 receiver his rookie year and he failed. Gave him a chance to be a slot receiver last year and he failed/is getting replaced by Cole Beasley. I just don't see a scenario where Zay gets a ton of playing time. That is IF he even makes the team. (I think he will but not a lock by any means)
