ChanOverChin Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Roberts has been in the league for six seasons and is a solid player. He could be a pretty good #3 WR ahead of the likes of Hankerson, Salas, and Listenbee. If he can double as a KR/PR he would be well worth signing.

hondo in seattle Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Did Roberts really post his own highlight vid? He mostly looks like Just Another Guy to me. A good #3? Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. common Man, he could be the best Other guy on the Bills ! I mean beat out those other six Just Another Guys I think he sang the tune too. The song had a good lesson within it. Andre might have recorded it though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I don't anything about the guy, but I saw nothing special. From what I've read about his hands, his "low-lights" tape might be more telling. On his first ever touchdown a voice is heard to say something like "what a great catch!" After he caught an uncontested curl aimed at his left shoulder. I wonder if that was meant "you know, for him" or if he had that dubbed in to trick those not paying attention? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing special but he would be an option at PR/KR and we don't have many of those around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChanOverChin Posted May 20, 2016 Author Share Posted May 20, 2016 Look, I can't help it that the Bills are in the situation they are in where they can't afford to pay big money to name FA players. For what Roberts will cost the Bills he is worth signing. He can help the team in several ways. If you are a Bills fan you should be happy with that. There's no guarantee that they will even sign him since 4-5 other teams are hot on his trail. What does it say about our current status at WR if Roberts can come in and become the #3 WR??

White Linen Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Like a lot of players he's not a great hands catcher but he hauls the ball in pretty effectively into his body. Just like Hankerson and Little he's had some productive NFL seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Nothing special but he would be an option at PR/KR and we don't have many of those around. Players with stone hands usually do poorly in that role too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChanOverChin Posted May 20, 2016 Author Share Posted May 20, 2016 26, the initial thread didn't show highlights of the player. I'd be willing to bet that the average Bills fan doesn't even know who Roberts is and he's been productive in the league for SIX years now.

boyst Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 A highlight video of a guy who probably wont be on an NFL roster in 2016 is interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanOverChin Posted May 20, 2016 Author Share Posted May 20, 2016 You wanna bet me that Roberts is on an NFL roster this year?? I didn't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Would be worth kicking the tires on, more so as a punt and kick returner, the Bills could use an option. As a receiver though I don't think he is anything that much above or below the hodgepodge of what is currently there competing at the 3 WR position.

Luxy312 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I'll call him "Meh" Roberts, because he's pretty unimpressive to me. Good receivers don't spend six years in the NFL bouncing between NFL teams mostly as a PR/KR guy. In 121 PR/KR, the guy has one TD. To boot, the Bills already have 13 WR's on the roster, including 3 rookies. Not happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
