Mark Vader Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 21 minutes ago, Phil The Thrill said: Please he makes 1 TD catch and some people act like he’s Jimmy Graham. Before you fans re-write history, keep in mind that O’Leary has 7 catches on the year for 77 yards. 7 catches is less than any TE’s on the Bills. O’Leary is a quality #2 or #3 option at TE. He is an average blocker and average receiver. The decision for the Bills was pretty simple. They elected to go with players like Croom and Thomas who have more potential as receivers at TE. They can’t get rid of Clay because of contract reasons but they wouldn’t because he too is a better receiver and blocker than O’Leary. I see him as a marginal player. One way or the other O’Leary has ZERO effect on the Bills season in 2018. Potential. That's all I hear about when it comes to Logan Thomas. He's in his 3rd year with the Bills. How much longer until that potential comes to fruition? You also say that O'Leary is an average blocker, which is true. Have you seen Logan Thomas block?

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Croom has turned out to be okay. If Clay can ever get healthy we have 2 pretty solid TEs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long does he get to do something useful? I honestly think we just keep him so we have an emergency QB. But I don't doubt our TE group next year will be very different.

I'll almost bet he burns the Bills for at least one good play during the game today !! he had a huge play against them last year that if memory serves me correctly ended up in a 38 yd. td?

IgotBILLStopay Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I always liked Nick. But it is understandable why they kept Logan over Nick. Logan can throw the ball. Nick cant. With our QB situation grim throughout the season following the AJM trade, McB didnt have the luxury of giving up on anyone who could throw the ball.

I always liked the guy and I’m glad he’s hanging on, but I wish he was helping another team. Did you know his grandfather....... Thank God for you. I thought I was missing out and starting to panic.

Johnny Hammersticks Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Jeez...what I would do for a TE that was even an “average” blocker. Croom and Thomas are trash. I’m not even sure why Thomas is still on the team at this point. Bad mistake releasing O’Leary, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather have Nick than Logan Thomas right now. never really understood that move. One word: Croom. That is where its at. The only thing to miss about Nick is the cool trivia question that the announcers incessantly repeated - he is Jack Nickolas' grandson. Yes, WE KNOW ALREADY!

MrEpsYtown Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I see where people are coming from, but Logan Thomas, to my eye, is starting to come around. He looks much better as a blocker and has been an okay reciever. There is still some nice potential in there. His route running appears to have improved as well. I do like O'Leary, but I understand why they moved on. Croom is a nice reciever, and an awful blocker, but Thomas still has potential to become an all around tight end. I thought he sucked too, but since Clay has been out, he has been the #1 and I think he looks a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purple haze Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 O'Leary was okay, but no great loss. I can see why the Bills let him walk. Thomas is a horrible blocker. They need to just use him as a WR. In fact, the Bills don't have a TE on the roster who is a great blocker. Clay is just okay. Croom is more WR too. The Bills can do better at that position in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
