It was a rash decision by the Bills to part ways so soon. Seems like a good decision to bring back Thompson. Between DT, McKenzie, and Foster, they've got a lot of versatility down the depth chart at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctk232 Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) Signed McKenzie, released and brought Foster back up, cut Pryor, brought back DT (yay!)...pattern? Opinionated speculation: so is it safe to say our coaching staff thinks the issue with the corps was lack of speed? Certainly makes sense in terms of getting separation - but is this the [best] approach to helping Allen develop? I know a few points were made, and I've agreed with, that we should be getting receivers with large catch radii (a KB who can complete a catch, N'Keal Harry, etc.) to help with Allen's inaccuracy issues. No reason we can't have both, but seems like the priority here is being given to speed over physical receivers with high completion probability in a contested catch.

Need speed to stretch the Defense to help run game which helps Josh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavy Kevi Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Actually really like this move. We need speed, especially at receiver, and Deonta seemed to fit in here and I was surprised to see him go in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're gonna be bad, be historically bad. Try as they may, no one will ever duplicate the PeterMan's level of ineptitude. The man is a living legend.

Holmes and Benjamin aren't making names for themselves, and will be gone. Clay hasn't either. McCloud is a rookie and hasn't been much of anything. Foster will be back but he's depth at best at this point in his career. This is a chance for him to carve out a role, and possibly earn some playing time next year.

What it does is give solid receivers behind a number 1....which is currently not on the roster...... but if we can keep Deonte....Zay....the new guy off he practice squad....AND find a number 1 in the offseason? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't think it will take much to "carve out a role". Our WR room is so barren that I can't imagine that even next year there are 5 better receivers on the roster. Obviously he has to do something, I just don't think it's much. McKenzie and Zay are the only two so far that have done anything to justify their spot imo.
