Bills fans over-value Singletary. He’s solid but isn’t dynamic and plays way too many snaps because we haven’t had anybody else. The RB version of Levi Wallace. Hynes will eat into his snaps.
Gotta hand it to Beane. Whatever mistakes he makes, he recognizes and tries to correct. We went from having maybe the least dynamic RB room to now having a legit threat and it only cost a 6th rounder and a guy who doesn’t dress on sundays.
Not saying something is gonna happen, but as the Super Bowl favorite, Beane has to be in on all these trades if nothing else to drive up the price. I actually think we make a deal for a RB in next 3 hours.
Hockenson is intriguing. Knox isn’t really a traditional TE. Would allow Knox to play more in the backfield and also some 2 Tight End looks which was clearly the plan with the OJ Howard signing.
And Hockenson’s contract is $500k this year and $9m next year.
it’d be nice to get a big, physical RB. I’d take Hunt or Gibson for a 5th rounder. Singletary is a nice back but we need a big back complement to grind out an extra yard or 2 in the red zone and in short yardage.
Kind of agree, but Green Bay was getting a lot of pressure on Allen. Made him uncomfortable and since game was still at hand, Allen was more reluctant to run. He could’ve had a ton of yards running in 2nd half but smartly didn’t take the bait. We still won by 10.
When is an innovative coach gonna carry 3-4 OL who exclusively come in for short yardage run plays?
You could make an argument that those run-only O-Linemen would be much more valuable than all the Special-Teams-only guys we carry.
I think it’s becoming pretty clear the NFL has to expand the talent pool outside of American high school football where participation is falling.
Put a few teams in europe and I’m sure the hope is that more people will start playing the sport there.
