Now he gets a full off-season, no preparing for draft. He can heal up nicely and I'm sure, even if he won't admit it, a shoulder injury had an impact on a rookie WR season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys are playing against super elite athletes - trying to do that while injured is incredibly difficult.

Yes, he is having surgery on a healthy shoulder just to trick us into thinking he didn’t just have a bad year. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hondo in seattle Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 A shoulder injury could explain some of the drops. It doesn't explain the lack of separation. Then again, he was just a rook. Some WRs need a year or two to adapt to the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNICE Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I like Zay. Can’t wait for him to come back with experience from rookie year and healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estro Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Unless both his hands were broken I still have serious concerns about his ability to make contested catches. He was absolutely awful in those contested situations, which is the norm in the NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dude Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I think the Bills need to improve the WR corps to the point where Zay knows he needs to earn his spot. Perhaps the injury explains for drops...we’ll see. But he shouldn’t feel entitled to a spot next year and we need to bring in lots of competition. Ive heard on NFL Radio that this years WR draft class is awful so I expect moves in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
