Moving forward after the Eagles game...


Recommended Posts

A minor dilemma going forward is what the Bills will do at the wide receiver position. Donald Jones got a much hated high ankle sprain during Sunday’s game, and is currently projected to be on the mend for six weeks. That’s probably a short enough span for the Bills to leave him on the active roster (although they have previously injury reserved players with lesser injuries). However, that does leave the team without their second receiver during that time span. I think there’s several routes that the team could take, some more likely and others more speculative.

 

Option #1 – The Bills basically stay on their current course and play Naaman Roosevelt in Donald Jones’ place. Stevie Johnson was on WGR radio today and said that he was most impressed by Roosevelt because he didn’t take any snaps during the week at Jones’ position on the field. Roosevelt had a good game against the Eagles, with five receptions for 41 yards. Fitzpatrick clearly doesn’t have any problem throwing to him, targeting him seven times during the game, which led the team. From there, Ruvell Martin would continue to stay on the roster as a special teams player and emergency receiver. [/Quote]
