TonyBeets Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I was at the game yesterday and I saw Zay Jones get Benjamin lined up correctly more than a couple of times. It's true, as sad as it sounds...Zay probably is our number 1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Dawkins got called for one but I assumed that was because one of the WRs or TEs uncovered him and he ended up being an extra receiver as the refs saw it.

No. Dawkins was one and Croom was the other I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) He was actually open multiple times yesterday on outs, a couple of slants, and at least one post I saw. He is getting better whether people want to admit it or not. Our #1? Probably. Still nothing more than a 3 or a 4 anywhere else. I see him developing into a Robert Woods type of player if he keeps progressing. Edited October 15, 2018 by H2o 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, definitely encouraged by his progress out there. He's also not dropping the ball at the clip he did last year either. He can definitely end up being a solid #2 guy for us at the least if he keeps this up. He's getting open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I thought about starting a thread about how Zay has actually picked his game up this year and is starting to flash the potential he was supposed to have. He still dropped a pass yesterday, but he's catching most of his targets and demonstrating some play making potential. Zay Jones is no longer the Invisible Man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zay will definitely survive the purge and maybe Croom too. I think he has done pretty well when given opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsInWilmingtonNC Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I am feeling very good about Zay Jones. What happened last year was completely mental IMO, he started dropping balls and then he let it get to his head and never broke out of it. I never bought all of the bust talk last year and I think he is growing into the solid #2 WR he will become. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Sammy on his 5th year option would look so much Better than Banjamin and his 5th year option. But McD didnt like Sammy’s attitude. I guess refusing to run routes pre game is the type of attitude he likes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrochester55 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Zay Jones has improved since last year and could become a decent player, but him being #1 is more of a testament to how bad this group is than how good Zay is. On most other teams , he would be a #3 or #4 option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billieve420 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Zay would be lucky to be a # 3 on most teams and belongs in the slot. It is a bad situation to put a rookie QB in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay_Fixit Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I said this week 1. Despite what some may think, Zay is and will be a good player. He’s just part of a terrible offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Who knows? Maybe he is good. The QBs we have had since Orton can’t see or throw to WRs. A few of these guys could be good. How would we know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Someone earlier said Zay could turn into a Robert Woods type. I think that would be a success for a 2nd Round Pick, and wholeheartedly agree he can get to that level. Pretty sure we would all take a Robert Woods that actually wants to be in Buffalo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing Zay with some nice blocks in the run game, which was something I always liked about Woods. Reliable route runner that contributes well in the run game - I'll take that any day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
