BuffaloBillsForever Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) I have to be honest, I haven't paid any attention to him this year. For those that have how often has he been put to use, how has he played etc. Just curious. Forgot we had the second highest paid fullback in the league on this roster.

YoloinOhio Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Incognito said he was the worst ping pong player on the team. Oh - football. He has had some great blocks that I've seen. Especially for Clay that I recall specifically. He's not always out there. I don't know the PFF and all that but I will say I expected more snaps for him. If he is out there 50% of the time I would be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the two games he wasn't used much, was against NE (fell behind early) and NYG (Shady out). http://www.buffalorumblings.com/pages/buffalo-bills-snap-counts-2015-year-to-date Edited October 10, 2015 by ricojes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, but I didn't understand why you felt the need to mention he was the second highest paid at his position. If you think his contract is irrelevant then why mention it?

Gray Beard Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Felton is on my list of grievances. I don't know who I am mad at, but it has to be somebody. Why is he so rarely used? He says Sam Gash is a player he wants to emulate. In almost every game, Sam Gash was good for one or two plays that were "block then run out into the flats for a quick pass that results in a good gain." OK, then why don't they use Felton for that? It always got the crowd going, and it almost always worked. In my opinion, Roman may soon be known as the "Wannstedt of the Offense" unless he can find a way to get a little more creative and make better use of his players.

Actually, the guy seems to have lousy hands. It seems that he has dropped more passes then he has caught. They threw to him more in preseason, and he dropped several passes. More recently, he was thrown to down by our own goal line, and he took a dump pass and literally bobbled it up into the air, and by the time he regained control, he was tackled for little or no gain. We were lucky a defender wasn't there to snatch the ball right out of the air and score an easy touchdown. He may be a good blocker, but he seems to have hands of stone.

I dont think TT does. he looks for Clay waaay too much. But give it time. I want to see Felton and Boobie running and blocking for each other from a split back formation. Maybe Sunday if Boobie is the featured back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webster Guy Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Dixon had the best block on a blitzing linebacker I've ever seen by a back. Not sure which play, it was in the second half.

DC Greg Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Because Felton is even less of a tailback His feet move forward when he runs, rather than in place, up and down, so I think that might be better. Just spitballing. I'm gunna go ahead and lean towards rather seeing Felton run it with a head of a steam over boobie cement shoes dixon. I think, as a professional football player, he could potentially handle being 4 yards behind the LOS instead of 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I have to be honest, I haven't paid any attention to him this year. For those that have how often has he been put to use, how has he played etc. Just curious. Forgot we had the second highest paid fullback in the league on this roster. You would have thought today with Karlos & Shady out they would lean on him a bit more to punish the other team .
