26CornerBlitz Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 That is the problem, he doesn't practice. He needs to create chemistry with T-Rod, same with that other WR who is often injured. Get the prima-donna's on the practice field. Imo Injuries and coaches managing them means being a prima donna? Not exactly making sense from my perspective.

Leroi Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Injuries and coaches managing them means being a prima donna? Not exactly making sense from my perspective. No, not practicing because of inflated ego's means being a prima donna. Its apparent both Clay and Samantha are milking their "injuries" to stay off the practice field. Which is slowing development of Tyrod and the Offense. Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Seems just common sense that if you are not close to 100% it would be impossible to create the necessary development and chemistry with a QB considering that is completely based on timing and knowing where you are going to be in and out of your cuts. If you practice hurt and run 80-90% that wouldnt create chemistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 How long is that open?It's on the table now and I don't think that it has a definitive expiration. He's trying to get Jacksonville to match or even come close. If not he's probably going to end up with the Bills. They are ahead of Denver now.

GunnerBill Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Clay is not milking his knee. He has a chronic knee injury that will never be "fixed". That is a reason for being smart with his practice reps. It is also a reason for not giving him the largest % guaranteed money contract to a non Quarterback in the whole league......

JoeF Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) Dennis Pitta TE Ravens suffered what appeared to be another serious hip injury in OTAs today. Barnidge could have another potential suitor. Edited June 2, 2017 by JoeF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Cubed Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) Dennis Pitta TE Ravens suffered what appeared to be another serious hip injury in OTAs today. Barnidge could have another potential suitor. I don't think they have the cap space to sign Barnidge, even on a one year deal. They'd have to do some trimming or trading and unload. Their top 51 puts them within like $3M of the 2017 cap. Edited June 2, 2017 by Wayne Cubed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEraBills Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 From what I understand about Pitta's deal the Ravens have an injury waiver so they wouldn't be stuck with the salary if he got hurt again, so that could free up some room for Barnidge. I definitely think they will pursue him. They could cut Arrington and who knows what they will do with Watson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understand your opinion J from H. Mine is the Bills are not in a position to win the Division--so that means one of two wildcards--I don't think that is realistic either. The pool of wildcard teams is likely the Chiefs, Broncos, Bengals, Ravens, Dolphins, Texans, Colts, Titans--(assuming Raiders, Pats, Steelers and one of the Colts, Texans, Titans division winners). I don't think the Bills stack up against those teams to make the top 2....in that case I think we focus on the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ravens just lost their starting TE and their starting Nickel Corner. They hit a string of bad luck with injuries since their SB season. All of the other teams you named barring the Patriots could all be one significant injury away. So it's just as McDermott would say, a matter of "trusting the process" and seeing what happens but making sure you don't beat yourself as you go through.
