Considering the quality of veteran backs out there begging for work it would be nice if the $9M cap figure RB could see fit to not be the only no-show to the new coaches first OTA. Hopefully he'll be in tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he'll be in tomorrow. No one's expecting McCoy to become a team leader at this point in his career. All he needs to do is be healthy for the season and produce when it matters. It shouldn't matter if he misses all of voluntary practices. I hope they guve him plenty of rest during the off-season. He's earned it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't his "sources" tell him why McCoy was not at camp since his "sources" advised him it was not contract related. He needs a new sorcerer.

McDermott could have cleared the air by saying that he spoke with McCoy and he had personal reasons for not attending ect. ect. ect but instead said ". "It is voluntary, though. That is what it is. I'm encouraged by the guys that are here, and that's really where my focus is at this time." Its like when your wife/girlfriend says,"do what you want".

LeGOATski Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Didn't McDermott say he already talked with McCoy before this and likes him? Hasn't McCoy already said he's excited by the new staff?

BADOLBILZ Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I expect McCoy to produce at a high level because that's what he does. You don't expect that? When they unnecessarily extended him I expected he wouldn't be in Buffalo to see the extension years........I still expect that. This no-show just adds that little bit of intrigue to what should have been a fully attended first OTA...........it's a small show of disrespect to the new HC/staff........not much, but something. I don't take it for more than that......but McDermott seems like he wants everyone in the organization on one page......as opposed to past regimes where many exceptions were granted.
