Kelly the Dog Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Still could, later. Might be a perk to see our young guys before having to decide And he will come cheap. I tend to doubt he would want to come to a team with a clear starter, a FB, and three solid WR, but he would be the #1 traditional TE and the #2 TE.

billykaykay Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 some more Clay highlights. this one from BB dot com. not sure if it's been posted but it certainly got me fired up for some football: http://www.buffalobills.com/video/videos/Watch-Charles-Clay-Highlights/a66e5596-0c5d-4958-9dc7-4bac903c5aa0  some things that will stick out in that video vs Chandler: - Clay doesn't go down right away, he fights for extra yards. it was always disappointing to me how easily Chandler went down - he's much faster (obviously) - i'd like to see him use his hands to catch the ball more and catch it at its highest point. that's something Chandler was actually pretty good at, he would keep the ball high vs the shorter dbacks  let's play some football already! i can't wait to see how they use Clay. the suspense is killing me! Does anyone know exactly what Clay's knee injury is? Is it something that will heal during the off season or will it require some cartilage being cleared out. Thank you in advance.

Probably just an MCL sprain that needed rest. Â Well, yes and no. He re-aggravated a knee he had scoped last offseason. So it was already a knee that had been bothering him and he had a minor procedure on.

Nanker Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 For years the Bills didn't do much and were ignored by writers and twits. Now we make big moves with big name players and we're **** on from almost everyone. Well, it's always something, isn't it? The caveat I would offer is that championships are not won in the offseason. It's true that the FO this year has assembled just about exactly the team that we (nearly all) thought that Drew Bledsoe would need to be a SB winner. Drew. Â What is also "conventional" wisdom is that making a big splashy show in FA does not always work out as the team intended. However, I'm going out on a limb and saying I will be shocked if The Bills don't make it into the Playoffs this year. I have confidence in the coaching staff to make this year's squad a cohesive team that is a consistent winner. Â Hey, Rome wasn't built in a day - or even 15 years for that matter. But I firmly believe The Bills have finally started to get their shite together, and should field very competitive, entertaining, and relevant teams for years to come. It's a GREAT time to be a Bills fan! Â GO BILLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
