YoloinOhio Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Yeldon is on the bubble in Jax with Leonard Fournette on board as the 4th overall pick and Chris Ivory on a big contract (with 7 mill dead cap if cut this year). He would be a nice replacement for Gillislee. The Bills RB coach, Kelly Skipper, was RB coach in Jax last 2 years. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/06/12/t-j-yeldon-could-be-in-danger-of-getting-cut-in-jacksonville/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloHokie13 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Interesting option, though it does sound like JWill is making a good impression so far (and I have my doubts with him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Was kinda hoping for Ivory instead but that contract mang, gross the Jax OL has been trash. I think he'd be a great fit here. I'd trade a late rounder for him actually. Interesting option, though it does sound like JWill is making a good impression so far (and I have my doubts with him).i still think McCoy - Yeldon - Jwill - Tolbert. Have Jwill battle Yeldon for the " Gillislee carries" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Yeldon is good. Jags look like the Bills taking all of these RB's instead of getting a QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Was kinda hoping for Ivory instead but that contract mang, gross Jax "plan" at RB is very odd. All that money at Ivory and then Fournette at 4.... but bad OL and Yeldon still just needs an opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 I'd give em a late round pick too. When was Yeldon taken in the draft?2nd round. An underrated guy in college due to playing with Derrick Henry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 2nd round. An underrated guy in college due to playing with Derrick Henry. Regardless we need some depth, Shady won't run like this forever. I'd like to take a shot at a few of these early to late season cuts. Was on board with Christine Michael but he landed with the Colts. Still like the idea of Pro Wrestler Deangelo Williams.. Maybe we can get Maclin to sign, then trade him to the Ravens for Kenneth Dixon and picks. Dixon is suspended for 4 games, maybe they're tired of the antics already? Ryan Mathews after he gets cut from the Eagles? Â Â Need someone though, definitely on board with Yeldon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) Very negligible cap savings, and he's been sure-handed in the passing game. I think he sticks with Jax at least 1 more year. Â Scratch that - basically no cap savings. U save 400K but then one of your 400Kish RBs whos currently not in the top 53, will be in the top 53. Negates any savings. Edited June 12, 2017 by dneveu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Says Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 His rushing stats are so-so but average 110 carries per year. Good receiver out of the backfield,50 catches a year. Would he get that many touches in Buffalo? Probably not til Shady moves on. Barely 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Still...He has talent...I'm guessing he's not the only back-up RB that is going to wiggle his way through to Free Agency by the final cuts this year...

Alphadawg7 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I wouldn't mind adding him if he becomes available to compete with J Will. I look forward to seeing what J-Will can do in camp and preseason, but nothing wrong with bringing in competition for the spot and making them earn the spot behind McCoy.

He has to basically lose his job to a UDFA.his agent could want him out of there - he won't see much PT. The jags know he's gone next year in FA. I could see a trade for a late rounder.

ALF Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 If he is available someone will offer at least a 4th rd pick for him imo , he is well worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
