Tolbert is the worst FA acquisition in years

I cannot think of a player more worthless.

He's not a good blocker.  He's too slow to get anything running the ball, unless there is a massive hole right up the gut.  He can't catch and he fumbles too much.

 

Yet this doesn't stop Rick Dennison from using him like a Swiss Army Knife. 

Watch him get no yards on FB dive!  Watch him lose 5 yards on a FB screen!  Watch him split out into the slot and drop the ball!

 

I wouldn't be surprised if we have Wildcat packages designed for Tolbert.  We are probably an injury away from him being our #1 kick/punt returner.

If they wanted to bring him as a locker room character guy, it wouldn’t have been a bad pickup. Dennison making him a featured part of the offense is the problem. Dennison has been the worst pickup. 

 

I love when he was asked about it weeks ago, that if he realised that Tolbert was in the game, that he said he wasn’t aware. Like come on. 

 

Basically admitting he has no clue on his personal in the game and if the play calls change.

Most OCs would use somebody like Mike Tolbert as a change of pace back.

 

But not Dennison.  He literally changes NOTHING when LeSean McCoy comes out of the game.  Somehow he believes that "if McCoy can run that play, then why can't Tolbert?"

 

The only value Tolbert brings to this team, is if he somehow helps Dennison get canned.

I think that the title on this thread is a little bit harsh.  I'd have no problem with Tolbert being on the team to help teach the young guys how to be good professionals.  The only problem is that the coaches keep putting him on the field.

How true. It just frightens me that our coaching staff can’t see the same thing every Bills fan does. There are Bills fans on every continent who know this, yet our coaching staff remains clueless. 

 

Maybe if we send the OC to Antartica  he can see it properly? Do we all have to chip in?

Maybe we've had worse FA players.

But how many of them have had the negative impact of Tolbert?

 

It doesn't matter how many fumbles, drops, runs for losses... the coaching staff just keeps giving him the ball and designing plays for him.  It's insane.
