Kirby Jackson Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I can’t believe how people have positive things to say about any of these TEs. They ALL stink. Clay was fine before all of the injuries but other than that we’ve never had decent TE play (forget about good). O’Leary, Thomas, Croom, Lee, Lee Smith, Chandler, etc... are all bums.

Phil The Thrill Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 1 hour ago, Mark Vader said: 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? Potential or not, the bottom line is he has been a more productive WR than O’Leary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long does he get to do something useful? Yet he has more yards and receptions than O’Leary in a terrible offense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 With respect to blocking, Croom and Thomas make O’Leary look like Rob Gronkowski. Watching Croom get absolutely undressed every Sunday is painful. One position group that could have been handled better this offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God almighty naming off all of these Tight Ends makes me realize just how bad we've been at that position for SO long. I remember a game against the Titans w/ Vince Young, Royal caught a TD pass with about 7 yards deep in the end zone. He had 3 yards to get 2 feet down and he just put one down in bounds and stepped out with the other. Like he made zero effort to put two feet down. Ended up losing the game late.

I was so pissed that day. It’s the weirdest thing. You’d think by dumb luck you’d fall into a guy that became good. The odds of SOMEONE being good have to take over at some point. That’s kind of why people are debating the merits of O’Leary vs. Thomas. The answer is none of the above. We have such a low bar. I’m hoping that TE is addressed this offseason. Tyler Eiffert is NEVER healthy but is a good “buy low” candidate imo. It’s worth a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so pissed that day. Yeah that was Robert Royal's signature moment with the Bills. He was the *best* of about 15 free agents they signed that offseason. When he was with Washington there was a hilarious NFL films video of a particular game where Royal dropped like 5 easy passes and the Redskins radio team was going nuts........I have never heard a home radio team trash a home team player like that.? As time went on with the Bills, opposing defenses would just let him run free basically daring the Bills to throw to him.

Tyrod's friend Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 who cares? Is Nick O'Leary on a 70 catch pace or something? If he had stayed in Buffalo, would he have been? I mean, we've lost 7 games and the reason has something to do with the 3rd or 4th best TE ... not that we don't have an offensive line for a ***** or we didn't adequately have QB resources? Thank goodness we are focused on the right part of the roster construction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
