Sky Diver Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: The reports on Foster are getting worse and worse by the day. I thought he had a shot at a roster spot just because he was the only one with real speed to present a downfield threat, but the acquisition of Coleman shows he’s not cutting it. They got Coleman for nothing. Not sure it has anything to do with Foster. 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: The reports on Foster are getting worse and worse by the day.

He may not have a top slot guaranteed but the money makes him a probable roster player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After KB, Jones and Coleman I think all the rest are still questionable. Lot's have Holmes locked as a ST'er but there are 4 preseason games for someone else to excel. Bills probably keep 6 but who knows for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Cut this bum now. No heart at all, stopping on a route, not laying out for catchable balls. Last time we saw a receiver quit this bad in a preseason game was Da'Rick watching as that pick 6 went right by him in Indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They signed him because he has something uncoachable - that speed. Given no first cuts this year, my guess would be he stays through the 2nd game. They will watch film with him, they will coach him, and they'll see if he's able to improve based on that coaching. If the answer seems to be "no", then as other guys become available around the league, yeah, he's a candidate for shedding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the light comes on, and he gets a Grinchy moment and his heart grows 3 times that day, but I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and if they think he can correct the weak spots with some work he has a shot at the practice squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminded me a lot of Sammy Watkins giving up on routes. Bad news for Foster is he isn't Sammy Watkins. For a guy who caught less than 10 balls a year in college you think he'd be playing like a mad dog for the chance to be in an NFL game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
