Given how the Browns havent had a good QB in years, i suppose its possible some of those drops were due to bad ball placement. Looking at their receiving stats from last year, most of the receivers had a 50% drop/catch rate. So theres that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodwin always looked like a great explosive big play type player when he played, it just seemed like he was always getting hurt. Nope.

The Bills are taking a chance on a player that might benefit from a change in scenery. The Bills desperation at WR makes me like the move. Coleman is a better pro-prospect than almost any player they would have been able to get late in the draft. It's a low risk high reward move for the Bills and a nice salvaging of value for the Browns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills Pimpin' Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Daboll wants to use KB, 6'5" 245", as his new Gronk, 6'6" 265". With Coleman on the outside he can try to match KB up on a safety or a LB so he can use his size. We have all seen KB can't separate from a corner. The offense seems to be taking shape and it's going to look similar to NE. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll agree to disagree here. While he didn’t get a boffo deal with where he was picked, it was certainly enough to fund his devotion to his hobby. Running track. Time went on then s**t got real.

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Then again, the Browns' brain trust (I know, an oxymoron if ever there was one) might have figured why keep Coleman, who would be 30-40 yards open downfield yelling "I'M OPEN!!!" when Tyrod will pull the ball back in and run for 7 yards up the sideline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I'm with most everyone. It was a huge need. He's got speed and talent. Didn't give away anything. We're better there than we were yesterday. I'm not expecting a huge breakthrough, especially with a Baylor guy and the fact the Browns just gave him away, but I'm happy with it. I think we keep six WR and maybe seven if McCloud is the 7th and a KR and/or PR as well as gadget guy out of the backfield. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not to say that "On Paper" means much. AJ to me is a game manager, kind of was in college and looked to be that type of player in limited action with the Bengals. Tyrod is a game manager but with a cannon arm and the ability to make plays with his legs that AJ simply can't make. I honestly expect all the same complaints that this board had with Tyrod (captain check down type stuff) when AJ takes the field. That's not to say that the Bills can't win with a conservative QB but I don't expect the huge uptick in QB production because the anti-Christ of QB's Tyrod isn't here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m low key optimistic about our offense tbh. Obviously we have to see who the QB is and how the OL performs, but KB-Coleman-Kerley-Clay-McCoy-Ivory have some legit potential. Throw in any development from O’Leary and Zay and we could be onto something. Edited August 6, 2018 by SCBills 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBoots8 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Gonna echo just about everyone else- it’s a shot in the arm of arguably our weakest position. Guy has upside and we didn’t have to trade much to get him. He’s low cost and if he looks good we can add that 5th year on. This is a win for the Bills, and yet another great move by Beane.

Domdab99 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 doesn't have to have the whole rout tree, he just needs two plays: 1) throw it to him in the flat in space and let him run. He should be a YAC monster. 2) Burn it deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they keep two QBs so may take an extra WR. We have no idea who will be KR or PR. If they want Taiwan Jones to be KR we keep an extra RB. If we want a big safety to play a few downs we keep maybe 5 instead of 4. If they don't keep Holmes at WR they need a gunner on ST. My guess is no better than yours and you may be right. I just think the number of WR has to do as much with other positions as it does the talent at WR. Only 4-5 are going to dress. I think McCloud is the PR and will be used as a RB sometimes so he will be the last WR but dress, so they keep at least six. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
