pdh1 Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Should Shaud Williams move ahead of Burns on the depth chart? I think so, that kid is quicker than smoke thru a keyhole. Maybe use him a little as "lightning" and Willis as "Thunder"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crackur Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 he ran pretty good ........I'd give him some time remember Darick Holmes? lol haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to talk about backs that were busts, try Curtis Enus (penn state) or what ever his last name was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Burns is a big Special Teams guy, so he's on the roster for that more than for rushing - but if you want to have 3 active HBs, yeah, Willis-Shaud-Burnsie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis in NC Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 That was very encouraging to see Shaud Williams run like that today. Gaining good yards when the Browns pretty much knew he would run it. He seemed to have some of Willis' qualities (on first glance, anyway) where he makes positive yards when the play looks stuffed. He caught the ball once, too, I think. He looks like a good #2 next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest taleof2qb's Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 well 10 carries does not a RB make, especially against the team buffalo faced today. but shaud W did impress. maybe one of those useful dave megget types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. K Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 He looked great in preseason too, for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzer32 Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 He looked quick, but he was also going against some backups and a team that knew they got taken to the woodshed and had given up. Let's see what he can do in the first half of a game giving WM some breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 yah i'd say shaud looks like more of a change of pace, Meggett or warrick dunn type of back...i dont see anyway his small frame could handle a game long beating though, with 25 touches...thats why we need burns...

BillsSouth Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Shaud Williams ran against a demoralised team that was using its second unit on the field. Granted, he ran very well, but at that stage the game looked like a preseason match. I really don´t think he´s good enough to start in this league. Maybe in the future he will improve enough so he´ll be able to, but not now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankeedawg Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Glad Shaud got some carries today. I was thrilled when he signed with the Bills. I told my skeptical Dad back home in Depew, NY that this kid would make the team. He is a team leader also. He was the glue that held an Alabama team in near chaos together his senior year.

Ralonzo Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 3/28/2004 - a great day of golf...i hole out from 75 yards, for an eagle 2, and my friend carlos 1 ups me 4 holes later by holeing out from 105 for an eagle 2... 157468[/snapback] Let me know when you stop playing the red tees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KurtGodel77 Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I think Shaud is good enough to justify trading away Travis Henry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I really like this coaching staff... they do stuff that seems right... wanted to get a look at shaud... he's definitely NF material, although i very much doubt that he is full time NFL material Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicBills Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I was a big fan of Shaud in training camp and thought he could be a great ST player. After watching him in action today (in person) I just think he is WAY too small to be anything more than a 3rd down back. If the Bills are going to rely on him as their No.2, that would be a big mistake in my opinion. He is good No.3...one who you wouldn't turn to if Willis went down for an extended period of time.

Coming out of training camp, I was convinced he would be the Bills KO return man this year...good thing I don't make those decisions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis in NC Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 By Simonton's disease, do you mean Shaud is short? I don't see where being 5'7" is so awful, especially if the defense can't see you until you emerge from behind the line. Maybe it's a disadvantage catching passes, but I still like the possibilities of SW. Maybe I'm thinking of Dave Meggett being a very useful RB at 5'7"...
