Former Buffalo Bills fan favorite Brandon Reilly has found a new home and technically he’s still in the playoffs.

 

Reilly signed on with the Dallas Cowboys’ practice squad earlier this week, according to multiple reports.

I bet he makes the team. 

 

Detroit has zero WRs.... people think our WR group needs help.

 

Lions have Marvin Jones, who is decent. After that... nobody. If Reilly plays like he did here, he’ll get a spot.

Golladay is the 1 there. Jones is a fine two. I’d take those two over anything the Bills have.

...now there's some real impressive "under desk gonads" hating on a UDFA trying to fulfill his NFL dream......kid had a good work ethic and got derailed by a camp injury.......maybe he comes Stafford's "Chris Hogan type", steady. dependable yet nothing flashy.....naw easier just to hate 'em......wow............

Was wondering this too.

I would take Foster over either of them.  I realise as usual you meed stats to see anything but youll get em next season. Heres these for now.

1.  20+ per reception

2.  Only rookie WR with 3 100 yard games

 

You need to realise he was a whole different WR when he came back.  Week 10 on was a legit #1.  I delve into it deeper for you but I gotta get up at 430.

I think the only one taking Foster over Golladay is a Bills fan! Here’s to hoping you’re right, I just don’t see it. Golladay has rare size and elite hands, Foster is an unproven burner. 

 

I see it as a poor man’s Michael Thomas against a poor man’s Ted Ginn.

Yea.

 

Golladay is a beast. I'd happily take him over Foster any day. Foster turned it around in the 2nd half, but people forget how bad he was to start the year.

While I agree with you regarding Golladay over Foster I don't get your second sentence.  If a player develops over the course or a season then I fail to see how the start has any bearing on the end.  Peyton Manning's first year was terrible, he was great for years after.  Does the latter taint the overall?

Let me know when Quincy gets 850 catches, 84 TDs and 13,000 yds

Quincy has only started 29 games,118 receptions and 5 TDs .  Compare that it Fryars early years(pretty underperforming for a #1 overall pick IMO).  Enuwa is a talented receiver from Nebraska- why do you discount him?  Not to mention he just signed a $36 million extension

It was a different era with 60% run rate and a volatile QB situation in New England (Eason/Grogan/Flutie) that was as bad or worse as Jets has been.  In his first 29 starts over 1st 3 years Fryar had 15 TDs vs 5 tds  in 4 years for Enunwa.  Fryar was an impact #1 WR who helped get a team with a poor 3rd year QB to the Super Bowl in his 2nd year in league.

 

Fryar was an All-Pro in 2nd year in league and was 3 time All-Pro.  Also appeared in 5 pro bowls.  Great deep threat and game breaking WR.  5x over 1000 yds when that was not common.  For reference, Andre Reed only did it 5x all with Kelly at QB.  For career, Reed had 100 more catches for 3 more TDs than Fryar.

Week 10-17

Foster-25, 511, 20.44, 3TDs 

Golladay-37, 540, 14.59, 2 TDs

Zay-27, 363, 13.07, 6TDs

M. Jones-27, 397, 14.70, 4TDs (last 7 games played)

One player was a Rookie and Two played with a Vet QB and much better Oline than the two that played with a Rookie QB.

So where is this massive difference that makes them hands down better.  Definitely should have been a big difference given the over all offensive talent on the Lions if they are so much better.

 

You want me to compare Rookie seasons now.

I realise the other have proven it over the course of a full season, but I think our two will be better.
