JM57 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 With no FB on the roster except Dimarco, I bet this is a way to limit his reps through OTAs and camp while still allowing Daboll to run his "regular" offense when we are watching the 3rd, 4th and 5th stringers come late summer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many other sets that you can use that are far more productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_believer Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 He is a hybrid fullback/tight end, so it might be taking a chance at someone cheaper with more versatility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsBytheBay Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Well damn. Does look like he has a little more of a shot than the regular tryout player. She looks like he could turn into a special teams Superstar as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CajunBillsBacker Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Maybe it’s cause FB is my favorite position on offense in football, but I like this signing. I think DiMarco should be at least slightly concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's entirely possible as well but I would be much more inclined to say that if they signed someone during free agency or even a UDFA as opposed to a tryout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about the one where he comes out of the backfield wide open for a Tyrod TD pass and slips on air. Incomplete. He is a one person human lowlight reel.

UConn James Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) I remember being thoroughly unimpressed with DiMarco last season. Especially given his cap hit. It was a clear downgrade from Corey McIntyre. Edited May 14, 2018 by UConn James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I would love to have a Larry Centers type FB for this offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 A fullback who can’t catch a ball once or twice per game for a screen or checkdown is worthless. DiMarco can’t catch. Bring back Sam Gash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) I also remember a few times they tried to hand the ball off to Dimarco in a pinch when Shady/Tolbert weren’t available ... epic fail. A FB taking up a roster spot should be able to take a carry or two without automatically losing yards. Edited May 14, 2018 by YoloinOhio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
