thebandit27 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Even if he isn't done, he's not a great fit for a passing game that features Taylor. His style of route-running and relative lack of speed doesn't mesh with Taylor's deep ball strength and relative failure to throw with anticipation.

Heavy Kevi Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Actually, he's a perfect fit. No one knows where Stevie is going to run his route, so anticipation is a moot point I tend to agree with this. Tyrod is a "see it now throw it" QB, and obviously Stevie can create separation even without speed. I'm not sure SJ has it anymore though, and obviously Stevie will never catch Tyrod's best ball: the 9-route.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Actually, he's a perfect fit. No one knows where Stevie is going to run his route, so anticipation is a moot point I don't see Tyrod ever getting comfortable with Stevie, but again, I don't think it'll matter since I doubt he's got anything left in the tank.

Agreed. I was just making a joke about Stevie's "routes" It was fun watching him shake Revis though. I liked Stevie while he was here, he bought in and cared.

Go Bills!!! Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I just don't get why us fans have to ask about picking up former Bills' when they're cut by another team? Steve was quite the character, but that was a lifetime ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 As much as I've always had a soft spot for Stevie (outside of dropping easy TD's and exposing lame beaters). He was never truly a #1 WR for this team and it speaks volumes about our lack of talent during those years with Fitz. I'd do find it humorous that he and Brandon Marshall loved Fitz. Ironically id rather bring Fitz back as a bench warmer and player/coach then take the risk with Stevie. He should consider retirement. Too many injuries the past 2 years. No thanks.

I also loved Stevie. He brought some enjoyment to some pretty rough years. I think Marshall and Stevie liked Fitz because he forced the ball to them. Stevie would have been out of the league if not for Fitz. That said I also agree it's over for him. Heckuva story for a 7th rounder to scratch and claw what he did but I don't see him going anywhere next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uticaclub Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) If we can bring him in cheap, do it, Tyrod can't throw well so it doesn't matter who our WRs are.

His style of route-running and relative lack of speed doesn't mesh with Taylor's deep ball strength and relative failure to throw with anticipation. Actually i disagree. Stevie was so good because he got seperation from his route running ability. Tyrod will only throw if the reciever is wide open. So Stevies ability to get open would be a nice combo with Tyrod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstruck Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Nah- it was all downhill for him after he started blaming God for his drops. Lack of responsibility. Lack of maturity. We tended to value him a little higher than we ought have while he was here. Our #1 went to another team and had to fight for playing time.

Punching Bag Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Stevie had a certain chemistry with Fitz and sometimes I thought it worked like this: Fitz threw the ball out there somewhere and let Stevie go get it. Stevie was good at that. He was never good at running designed routes. Actually Stevie saw the entire field anticipating moves of DBs and found holes but it took a very smart QB to see everything Stevie saw and adjust. Fitz was good at that but his arm was not always capable of hitting where he saw Stevie going to be. It was a perfect match. I cannot see such match with Tyrod but if he was willing to sign an incentive based contract it is worth trying out with Bills in camp. With his intensive exercise regimen, I'm sure he has a few years left That would be my biggest concern - when athletes get older they need to treat their body as full time job.

This is what I remember. He was fun to watch, but it's easier to remember his botched plays. If he wants to suit up one day and retire a Bill, I'd be OK with that.
