    Anticipating unprecedented levels of production is severely overestimating Samuel. 

    For Samuel to have 1000 yards we’d have to have injuries to Kinciad, Shakir, and probably Coleman. He’s definitely capable of having one of those Stevie Johnson or John Brown type “#1 by default” 1000 yard seasons, but man we don’t want that scenario

    Samuel is going to probably be a 80 catch 1000 yard WR for us.

    I think his numbers will average out to that, but he won’t get there. Coleman’s role will increase as the season progresses and Shakir will get targets. 
     

    I can see him having 1000 all purpose yards, though.

    To be clear bad players get released good players get traded.  He wasn’t great but he wasn’t bad either. 

    Oh bad players get traded, we have a history of them on both side of that coin haha

     

    I wouldn’t hate Zay, but I think at 29 he will hold out for the right opportunity. He offers nothing on special teams, and I doubt he cracks the Big 4 (Kincaid, Samuel, Shakir, Coleman) here. 
     

    He can go to Pitt and probably be their top guy.

    Jones best season was 2023 CS was 2020…something to consider🤷‍♂️ 

    I get it. Both guys are serviceable #2 receiving options who are probably best as a #3 option at this point in their careers.

    WR3 over who?

    Yea I’m definitely not benching Shakir for Jones.

    Zay was pretty solid for the Jags.  Not worthy of his outrageous contract, but still solid.  2022 was a better year statistically than any year than Samuel had.  2023 he was on par for a repeat of 2022 until he was injured.  

    Thanks Captain Insight.  

    Ehh

     

    Jones best season he had 82 catches - 823 yards - 5 TDs - 13 drops - 68% catch rate 

     

    CD best season he had 77 catches - 851 yards - 3 TD - 5 drops - 79% catch rate

     

    They are basically the same guy, just different type. High end #3 passing targets who can be serviceable #2 passing targets for a season.

    I'm holding out a small glimmer of hope that Beane knows/sees things regarding Shorter and Hamler.   Hamler apparently has trained his body real hard this off-season and spent time with Josh.  He has 4.3 speed.   It was intriguing that Keon specifically mentioned Hamler.  Maybe he met him while on his visit here. Beane has also mentioned Shavers a few times, who was a fantastic STer in college.  Maybe they see something in him? 


    Unless something changes, there is a clear top 3 WR.  Then a battle for 4-6  and likely 7 for ST's 


    Coleman 
    Samuel

    Shakir

     

    Hollis

    Hamler
    Shorter
     

     

    Shavers / Quintez / Isabella / Xavier Johnson / other UDFA's 

     


    I will also note....if this staff fails to get Coleman ready and start him, that is unacceptable.
     

    Force feed him the ball and speed up the learning process on the field. 

     

     

    KJ Hamler smoke is real. Multiple shout-outs this summer, excited to see him in the preseason. Could he lock down slot depth and KR?

    Buffalo has been quietly building a linebacking corps of players who are smart, instinctive and can all run: Milano, Bernard, Dorian Williams, Baylon Spector.  Bernard needed a year to learn McDermott's system, but had a terrific sophomore season.  2023 was Dorian Williams' redshirt season.  Spector also started slow, but had some good games in 2023 when pressed into service.   Hopefully, Ulofoshio can follow the same path.  He's got enough speed.

    They can all cover and knife into the backfield too. 
     

    We love Milano, but I think his succession plan is in full swing. He’ll be 30 in July and only has 3 seasons where he’s started more than 13 games in his career. I don’t know what the future looks like for him if he can’t stay healthy.

    His highlights certainly were impressive.

    His athletic testing was not 😬 Good vision can overcome a lot of that though!

    Yes thanks!! It took a while to load on my phone and didn’t wait long enough - appreciate it!!

    I think gore, bills (guard) and the punter all have a chance. Gore could stick with an injury or could be Ps at least and bills nd the punter can make the team outright. I had 6th/ 7th round picks on all of them

    Have you been able to find anything on the punter? I can’t find a single scouting report 

  9. Let me say this:

     

    Bills have three 2nd round pick WRs on their roster.

     

    Two of them are low-4.3 guys and have never been utilized as a deep threats in the NFL to this point. 
     

    The best deep threat we’ve had on this roster in some time actually ran a 4.53 40 and weighed 220 pounds.

    He's listed at 5'9" and 178 pounds. There have been plenty of shorter safeties but they are much heavier, so Hardy looks to be strictly a nickel. Even guys like Jim Leonard, Bob Sanders, and Tyrann Mathieu weighed at least 190. Can't see this as an option.

    Hardy did have a 40+ inch vert.

    Still a decent chance Hyde comes back post June 1st.  It's been hinted by both sides.

    Not sure what he has left in the tank, but that lineup would be :

     

    FS - Hyde, Edwards, Lewis

    SS - Bishop, Rapp, Hamlin 

     

    Otherwise I think we are looking at 

     

    FS - Bishop, Edwards, Lewis

    SS - Rapp, Hamlin

  11. Compare Keon Coleman to Tee Higgins and feel better. Higgins had a slightly faster 40 (4.59 to 4.61) but Coleman had a superior 10 yard split (1.54 vs 1.66).

     

    Colemans 1.54 10 yard split was actually in the 68th percentile among all the WRs in the draft. 
     

    We have multiple burners on this roster, but we have lacked the big, physical WR with some athletic ability for years.

  12. Bishop isn’t a box safety, he’s the most athletic DB on the roster next to Elam. 
     

    Bills also like their safeties to be able to cover deep and play in the box, he’ll do both.
