Brianmoorman4jesus Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I’d like to see a 4 game look at Murphy and see if he can carry the load and save us a draft pick. I would start him and see what he could handle for the rest of the year. 20+ touches a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB's are a dime a dozen now and most teams look at it that way. Patriots would cut him, Dallas would as well (ie Dez), he should be thanked for his service and shown the door. Don't disagree. Which is why he should have been traded at the deadline. Another mistake made by McBeane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems like he could provide a boost, why is he on the bench? We need to evaluate him. Do we need two backs or three? The lack of playing time for Murphy is just plain stupid. Sean has to know McCoy & Ivory are not long term backs. Give Murph a few more touches for Gods sake. I would only keep Shady next year on a restructure and as a 3rd down back....

This is the part of football nobody likes. When you see a player of LeSean McCoy's caliber decline. Borderline HOF back. With that said RB is holding back Josh Allen. Under no capacity do I want McCoy or Ivory back. Give me three 5th round RBs and it's a vast upgrade over what we have. There's no juice left to squeeze.

BuffaloBillyG Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 In a perfect world McCoy would admit to himself that he's getting older and his ability to dance and cut back have declined a bit. Perhaps accept a reduced roll. I don't see his pride letting that happen. Add in being a bit older, injuries adding up and (this is an assumption on my part) the potential for his off field issues to resurface...I believe it's time to get younger at the position. I wouldn't mind letting Ivory go as well. Move into next season with a rookie and a guy like Tevin Coleman. I'd be good with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayjent Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 21 hours ago, FeelingOnYouboty said: As a top flight RB he's done. I understand why they didn't move him at the deadline but we really need to be looking at a replacement in the Draft. And I'd like to introduce all of you to Darrell Henderson-RB Memphis 5'9 200. Please enjoy. Greg McCrae (UCF) is probably the best RB in the AAC but only a sophomore. He’s got burst and great vision. There are lots of good value backs that you can find in rounds 4-7. The Bills just need to get one on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Shady needs a better OL . He tried to get Richie to return. McCoy is still a very good receiver with this roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epstein's Mother Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I'd like to see him fight for an extra yard at the end of a run or even fall forward occasionally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a great 3rd round pick and an instant fan favorite in Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Early in the season, I thought the issues were more related to the O-Line and poor play at QB. But as the year has gone on, I'm becoming more skeptical. There are times that he's got a lane, and the acceleration just doesn't seem to be there anymore. At 30 years old and 10 years in the NFL, we shouldn't really be surprised though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookie Man Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 We need to add some behemoths on the OL and get a player at RB. Plus a TE and a wideout. Ahhh.. that seems like a lot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCOrange Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 On 12/3/2018 at 10:06 AM, clearwater cadet said: With this oline, a rookie Qb, no game changing WR. defense that constantly keep 8 in the box, that just doesn't help is skill set. they need a young north / south runner who is willing to take some hits. Of the 55 RBs that have at least 65 carries this year, McCoy ranks 38th in terms of highest percentage of runs with 8+ in the box, meaning that he's facing 8+ in the box less than most.

Rufridr101 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 We have 2 new offensive lineman replacing the best 2 from last year Peterman started multiple games Derek Anderson and Barkley have also a rookie the others but the problem is shady hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hebert19 Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 Anyone questioning this now is foolish. Hes not just starting to lose it. Hes lost it. Hes literally terrible. What's the cap hit if we cut him. I wanted him as a 3rd down back before. But we can do better cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GETTOTHE50 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I know the offensive line is absolutely dreadful this year, but shady did have a pro bowl year last year, which is why it’s hard for me to believe the sharp drop in production is due to age or loss of ability.
