starrymessenger Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) It's not clear what is going on with RM and the Titans. It's an odd way of going about it but it's possible that this is just a player on a one year deal and needing production to maximize his value venting his displeasure at the lack of targets. Vrabel's position is normal coach speak: you earn your role on game day based on how well you are executing in the offence in practice. RM was unable to practice through most of the off season due to miniscus surgery and an injured ACL. Given the injury to Delaney Walker and the inexperience of their WR group, the Titans may well be interested in retaining him so it's possible that the team and the player resolve their differences. Its hard to know exactly how the Bills might feel about RW. There is little doubt that he would upgrade our passing game. OTOH the "process" folks might be wary of him. They may think that he went about dealing with his issue in the wrong way. They may feel that he should have gone about resolving this internally without all the drama by earning a bigger role and more targets in the normal way. And while a player is free to negotiate his own deal without an agent his having done that might strike some as odd and maybe a sign of poor judgement. I don't know where the Bills are at regarding the whole kneeling/protest thing but it may be relevant that RM was amongst the more visible Titans taking a position aligned with CK. In any case he would not necessarily be seen as the easiest guy to assimilate to a new lockerroom and culture. Not criticizing the player, just saying that he is an outspoken kind of guy with a personality. If his request to be released were regarded as " all about me" he might not be seen as a process/team oriented player.

BillsMafia13 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I cant wrap my mind around why Buffalo is dragging its feet on OL and WR. Its blatantly obvious our WRs are the worst in the league by a mile, our OL is swiss cheese. If they cared so much about their qb investment why are they letting him get blitzkrieg'd and let down by garbage wrs. Am i missing something? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Enough of everyone going to help out NE If I'm the Titans I trade him to an NFC team. But we all know how this will go... He'll end up in NE and suddenly their offense will be great again and they will go 13-3 and end up in the Super Bowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could he turn that down - would be all the talk on the sports channels and twitter.... ... yes, I know, there are rules about this, but the juxtaposition with the Davis situation would be hilarious.

Iamkrgr Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 We should be in on this. This is a good opportunity here for him. He's been a solid #2 receiver and could be a good fit opposite Benjamin. Still would be a mediocre WR core but baby steps in the right direction. We need to give Allen better options to throw to. The more guys that get open the less likely he'll be to run the ball and risk injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berg1029 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Why was he being marginalized in Tennessee? Was his play falling off? I don't watch the Titans at all, but looking at their list of receivers.. it's hard to imagine a decent player struggling for playing time in that particular position group.

But Matthews said in a recent interview that he doesn't mind hard balls and he feels he can handle them well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) If Robiske thinks he can get something out of Matthews and get him to buy in, then we need to bring him in asap and get him signed. I didn't remember this connection, but it's important and I'm hoping Robiske reaches out to the McD and Beane and convinces them it's worth the risk. We have the cap $$ and this would be the best use of it now. Plus once Matthews gets to know SuperJosh, he'll want the chance to pad his numbers to get a bigger contract next year. He'd immediately be our #2 and with KB dogging it, he may have a chance to get even more targets. Edited September 27, 2018 by BillsRdue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
