Miracle Bills Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 The Bills need to move on from Benjamin now. They are not resigning him at the end of the year. Just cut him or bench him and let the players that want a shot play. Thompson, Jones, Foster, and McKenzie are all much more reliable and bigger threats than Benjamin.

MrEpsYtown Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 I like Deonte but to me he is more of a 3-4 on a contending team. I would have preferred to poach some younger guys off practice squads. I do think Thompson will help us and I can see him catching a few bombs from Josh Allen. I also think having speed on the field with Deonte and Foster stretching it will have the biggest impact on Zay Jones running the intermediate routes. He could wind up with 40/50 catches over the final few games here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of the dynamics but i believe if they keep him they get a comp pick out of it.....so sit his butt the rest of the year instead of some other team picking him up and we still pay the tab for this sloth.....

It makes me wonder why even bother. Not good enough to ratain before, not good enough for the Cowboys now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have never let him go Exactly, he only led the team in receiving last year. At least these guys are starting to correct earlier mistakes.

That is also how I see Deonte.....he is a complimentary piece But like I said earlier....if they can find a true number one....then Jones, Thompson, and McKenzie can fall in behind that player as the 2-4 slots We need to find a number 1 in this next draft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be nice to have for Allen (?) or Barkley and Foster is going to be a good fit moving forward. dig you point about opening up the field vertically. Been the bane of the Bills for two years now.

JerseyBills Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Allen now has 2 or 3 (McKenzie) deep threats. Hope to see some 70 yard bombs! Welcome back Deonte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defenses don't care about the deep ball ....baffler is that between Robiskie (37 years as WR Coach and apparently respected throughout the league) and Culley, despite his QB Coach label, has been more in tune as a WR Coach for his 25 years, how can we possibly have receivers that can't run routes?.....and doesn't it appear that Foster should be in good coaching hands with 62 years combined at that coaching position?....did I miss the memo (AGAIN)?.........

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. Thinking about this gives me a rash.
