26CornerBlitz Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) @viccarucci Logan Thomas' height, QB experience give #Bills a boost at tight end. At [bN] Blitz: http://buffalonews.com/2017/08/03/logan-thomas-height-quarterback-experience-give-bills-boost-tight-end/ So far, Thomas is the one tight end in training camp who has created the most buzz. He has consistently caught the ball well and made some head-turning plays, such as on Wednesday, when he easily out-jumped two defenders to grab a 25-yard Taylor throw in the middle of the field. Thomas also has gotten some first-team action while Clay has rested. "He's a big guy, for sure, a big target going down the middle of the field," Taylor said. "He made a strong catch (Wednesday). There were three people there at the same time. It was almost like one person. He's a talented guy."

Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Guys like Thomas and Powell stepping up would be great! Hopefully Thomas becomes a decent blocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Logan has been on my watch list since last year when I was really hoping he would get some burn towards the end of the season (maybe he was just not ready) The guy has better measurables then the top TE that was taken in this years draft (that went tot he bucs?) in a STRONG TE class......we picked him up for virtually nothing. A total diamond in the rough.....but finding these guys and drafting well is how you biuld a strong team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I'm all about the Logan Thomas the Train and I'd rather him play qb than TJ Yates! Thomas has a higher qb rating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloHokie13 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I'm all about the Logan Thomas the Train and I'd rather him play qb than TJ Yates! Thomas has a higher qb rating! 1/8 for 80 & a TD, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msw2112 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Maybe a thank you to Doug Whaley and his staff will be in order for this one. We'll see. Let's hope he's the TE version of Terrelle Pryor. Thomas was a pretty good, athletic college QB (at VA Tech), but not a very good NFL QB. He's bigger and heavier (and presumably a bit slower) than Pryor (a pretty good, athletic QB at Ohio State, but not a very good NFL QB), but, generally speaking TEs are bigger, heavier and slower than WRs. Pryor has developed into a very good NFL WR, so let's hope that Thomas can similarly develop into a very good NFL TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 1/8 for 80 & a TD, right? Haha, yeah. Give him 32 attempts and that's 320 yards and 4 tds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM57 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 He was the #1 TE in the recruiting class of 2009 over Arthur Lynch, Auburn legend Philip Lutzenkirchen (RIP), Levine Toilolo (Falcons) and Dion Sims (Dolphins). It's not like he's a complete clean slate, he's just going back in time a bit. Fun notes...Ra'shede Hageman was the #6 tight end in that class and Zach Ertz was #10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Guys like Thomas and Powell stepping up would be great! Hopefully Thomas becomes a decent blocker. ...damn right....imagine Thomas at 252 lbs catching the rock and rumblin' down the seam like a runaway Freightliner.......touche'....we've been smoked FAR too many times in the seam by a TE......opposition viewed 3rd and 20 as "3rd and SHORT" and it worked 98%% of the time.....smoked...........
