To answer the question - he needs it to have a chance to even make the PS at this stage. It depends on how good he is as a gunner. There is a lot of preseason left.

MAJBobby Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Hey all leave the Bama Homer alone. Foster is great. Because He is a 5 start HS recruit that played for Bama. Ignore that: He did NOTHING in college Was UDFA Has trouble catching Has trouble tracking a Ball Gives up on plays. Was given every opportunity to move up yet hasnt wihich caused the Bills to TRADE for another Deep Threat. Had a Horrendous game that put on tape everything is isnt good at (hands, tracking, and giving up). Ignore all that and know the Former 5 star HS Bama recruit is going to have a Big game because the Bama Homer says so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. He did ok, he is adjusting to NFL. People expect too much from a guy in his first NFL speed game. Also: People expect so much from bomb throwers being accurate. They are not. It is much more wr skill to slightly adjust slowing or speeding up while trying to keep the db screened off and then making the play. No QB can consistently hit a 2 foot circle from 50 or 60 yards like it looks many times when they complete a bomb. It is an illusion. JA threw that out of bounds ball about 60 yards and was only off about 3 or 4 feet. That is accurate for a bomb. It just drifted too far out. I see a ton of potential in this Foster guy and I hope he at least makes the PS and NE does not try to poach him. He gets open deep with effortless ease that players like Jordan Matthews, Holmes, Robert Woods, KB, and many others can only dream about. With Josh Allen's arm this kid could be a deadly weapon. This would be a perfect year for them to develop together. JMO. Edited August 16, 2018 by cba fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgia Tech is smaller and considerably harder to get into. I would assume that it's tech based and engineering programs were much better too. Alabama is a good school, but you're greatly overvaluing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid that you are mistaken. Maybe you missed the opening post. He had great separation on Thursday and just missed on two huge plays, scorching veteran CBs. He caught one, but the ball drifted out of bounds and the other was just outside of his reach. He lit it up in practice on Monday. "On Monday, he pushed that aside to have his best day of training camp by a substantial margin. Foster was all over the place, making catch after catch during team drills..." https://www.wkbw.com/sports/bills/joe-b-7-observations-from-2018-buffalo-bills-training-camp-day-14 He has blazing speed and he knows how to get open.

GoBills808 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I hope so. I like his speed and potential as a deep threat. I'm not sure whether he can overcome some fundamental issues he has as a wideout, but I'm definitely rooting for him to light it up. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you even know what the parameters of the competition were? How bout all the other thousands of engineering competitions? Spin it however you want, but Georgia Techs programs rank in the top 5 or 10 and Alabama isn't close. https://coe.gatech.edu/news/georgia-tech-wins-top-honors-formula-hybrid-competition https://coe.gatech.edu/rankings-and-stats Edited August 16, 2018 by Trogdor added links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
