BobbyC81 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 what happened to that dude? Had an elite year with nobody at QB with them a few years ago and then disappeared He had a sports hernia last season. Can someone explain how some players are just cut while others have to go thru waivers? Did Barnidge clear thru waivers without being claimed?

Did Barnidge clear thru waivers without being claimed? if the player is still on their rookie deal or has less than 4 years of service they go through waivers. Barnidge is 10 year vet so he is free to sign anywhere immediately. Edited May 3, 2017 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Heard on WGR that Barnidge has twelve more visits lined up after today. Needless to say, there's quite a market for his services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 @mikegarafolo TE Gary Barnidge is attending the Kentucky Derby 🐎 so he's pausing his FA tour after Buf visit. Possible future visits to Jags, Panthers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Why do people think Logan Thomas will contribute as a tight end,this year? ....why not?......guy has TE size and knows this may be his only NFL shot....doubtful QB ever becomes an option at this level....George Wilson made transition to safety........maybe this kid can do the same.....Barnridge would be the perfect tutor....

John from Riverside Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Why do people think Logan Thomas will contribute as a tight end,this year? Because he was the top TE prospect coming out of high school that probably position switched to QB because that is the money position? He has familiarity with the postiion even though there is a learning curve...and he certainly has the physical attributes. The bills thought so because they did pay a little more to get him on a contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billzgobowlin Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Why do people think Logan Thomas will contribute as a tight end,this year? He is quite the wild card. He has played Tight End in High School and a little in college so it isn't completely foreign to him. I bet they will have packages for him this year but man if he catches the ball he will bulldoze the defensive players. He would have been drafted in the first round as a tight end if the Hokies didn't need him as a QB so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VT wanted him to play QB He a lot more experience as a pass catcher than Terrell Pryor ever did and I'd say he did ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I would like. But unless the Bills gave him a ton of money, why would he ever sign here? His best bet might be to sign a one year deal and have a good season to cash in next year. A TE isnt boosting their value in our offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His best bet might be to sign a one year deal and have a good season to cash in next year. A TE isnt boosting their value in our offense.You're basing this off the last coaching staff though. The Kubiak/Dennison offenses have historically made good use of both their #1 and #2 TE. Joel Dreessen and Garrett Graham had decent production in Houston as the #2 guy. It didn't happen as much in Denver because Virgil Green is...well...not good. But they did use Green & Daniels on the field together frequently. I'm not saying this would be the best opportunity, because I don't know who else is looking at him. But this would be a *good* opportunity for him based on the number of snaps available to the #2 TE on this offense and the lack of talent to push for said #2 spot. Nobody is paying big money for a 31 or 32 year old TE with a season and a half of production. Edited May 4, 2017 by JM57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
