VanCity Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Brandon Myers, is a big, athletic, pass-catching and blocking TE that had a very solid season in OAK last year. He's a FA and he has been quoted as saying that he doesn't expect OAK to be a player for his services. I would love to see the Bills make a play, within reason, for his services. Te will definitely be a need w/ the uncertainty surrounding Chandlers availability at the start of the season. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyVanMiller Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Can't say that I know much about him, but a three-year players coming off a career-high season with 79 catches for 806 yards, with 4 TDs. Seems like a good FA target to me. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/12705/brandon-myers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I actually think he and Scott Chandler were teammates at Iowa. Wouldn't be a bad pickup at all for Chandler-insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JinWPB Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I actually think he and Scott Chandler were teammates at Iowa. Wouldn't be a bad pickup at all for Chandler-insurance. He's more athletic than Scott, Approaching 1000yds season TE, who wouldn't want him starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProbablyWrong Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 He was a beast last year. He was the only piece working for Oakland's offense. Hard to say if he would dominate or disappear in a halfway competent offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog69 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I've seen his name mentioned a few times. I would love to see him sign with the Bills. Seems like an up and coming young player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Trooth Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Let me see. Break out season, young, and a s#it team like the Raiders doesn't want him and they don't have a viable option at TE? Man, something smells real bad. Better watch every offensive play he logged and get the PIs to find the dirt, of it's there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Let me see. Break out season, young, and a s#it team like the Raiders doesn't want him and they don't have a viable option at TE? Man, something smells real bad. Better watch every offensive play he logged and get the PIs to find the dirt, of it's there. What smells is the Raiders organization. I watched him play a bit last year and he looks like a real "gamer" to me. I'd love to have him on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanCity Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 The last young, stand-out TE that the Raiders "organization" let leave in Free Agency was Zach Miller. He hasn't blown anybody away, but when given the opportunity (This years NFC semi-final) he can really impress. I'd be happy to have that caliber a player on the Bills. I am not sure the Raiders have figured out the NFL's move to pass-catching, athletic TE's is more than a fad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I was thinking about him too. Great fit for Marrone's offense and would likely come cheap. Delanie Walker may be a better all-around TE, but Myers is the better receiver. I want him, hopefully the Bills feel the same. I really don't think Chandler will contribute at all this year. He'll at least start the season on the PUP, but could end up IR'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baba Booey Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Would love to get this young talent, he is the only thng that worked with the Raiders offense this year. I saw him a few times and seemed like Palmers favorite target, I would hope the Front office takes a look at him or Bennett from the Giants. Would save us from having to draft an unproven TE.

OldTimer1960 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Brandon Myers - or any other FA TE or any other TE in this year's draft? Myers hasn't proven a lot except that he can catch a pretty good number of passes in a year on a bad team that was frequently coming from behind and had fast, but not very good, WRs. I wouldn't be opposed to signing Myers, but not for a ton of money. It could be argued that he is an "ascending" player, but I would not bet the farm on his one good year.
