Jamie Nails Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Totally waiting to see a tweet that says he's signed elsewhere. Just don't think he's going to come to b-lo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I think WR is better this year than last. It may end up being a strength. i am torn. Â the position is stronger but the team may be weaker perhaps because woods was such a vital blocker for this team. Â would you say we are stronger today than we were 2 years ago? with hogan, woods, goodwin, watkins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â would you say we are stronger today than we were 2 years ago? with hogan, woods, goodwin, watkins? Probably not, but I think that Jones is better than anyone but Sammy. Woods and Hogan would be next though and even Goodwin may be ahead of Holmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woods and Hogan would be next though and even Goodwin may be ahead of Holmes. How would we know if Goodwin is ahead of Holmes....they guy was never HEALTHY  I think folks are really discounting guys like  Holmes (I have watched this guy play a bit.....dont discount him he actually is a pretty good player) Philly Brown (a darn good number 3) Brandon Tate (did well when given opportunites last year) Corey Washington (veteran player that produced) Walter Powell (we were actually counting on this guy to do a lot last year.....a street free agent...this was one of our BEST receivers....now he is at the bottom of the group) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woods and Hogan would be next though and even Goodwin may be ahead of Holmes. How would guys compare Z.jones to robert ? Â And does this pick affect the need for a veteran TE really?

buffaloboyinATL Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Totally waiting to see a tweet that says he's signed elsewhere. Just don't think he's going to come to b-lo.He apparently lives in Jacksonville, so that stacks the deck against us. The good news is he probably already knows Beane from his time in Carolina.

Indefinite offer that he can shop is just a recipe to be used as leverage. Give a "take it or leave it" window and move on if he's not interested.

I dont fret over it much unless it is preventing us from making an offer to someone else  The one thing I will regret from this year is we were not able to get a TE out of one of the deepest TE drafts in history......I REALLY wanted Jake Butt or OJ Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I realize it's within their right as a player, but I don't like players who have to make a World Tour before signing a contract, playing one team against another. My guess is before his visits even started, he already had it narrowed down to a couple of teams. Â Whatever. If he signs great. If he doesn't...F him.

likei've Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 So someone wanting to do due diligence and see what his options are is bad. Disagree Exactly, probably his last contract and last chance to win anything. Also, it's the first time he can choose what team he wants to go to. Â Being honest, if I'm in the same situation and don't have any ties to Buffalo I'm not signing with them. They already have a decent TE and they don't pass. Â Finish your career blocking and missing the playoffs? No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
