NewEra Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 He has good hands. Josh needs those. He’s gotta he better than Zay. Crabtree, Foster, draft choice isn’t too bad and it won’t count towards the COMP PICKS!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 A Donte Thompson upgrade? A 3rd WR that could become the number 2 depending on how Zay performs. All things considered, it is a cost issue. If low cost, yeah. Would help with the intermediate routes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buftex Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I would take him, of course, depending on the salary. I am not sure judging him off last years numbers is a completely accurate way to judge him. He has a scrappiness that Bills receivers haven't had in years...he's old, sure, but we could do worse, if his attitude is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a receiver, just blindly looking at Allen’s stats, would you bet your career and future earnings on Allen? They might be dead wrong but his is how players and agents think. No players or their agents are dumb enough to blindly look at a QB's stats in trying to decide if they want to play with him or not. Actually, only the dumbest of fans blindly look at stats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Here we go, another bum gets cut and we got a "should we" thread. Real question to the OP...why would we or should we have interest in Crabtree? We already got rid of a WR who cant separate, is slow, and on the down side of his career. We don't need a KB clone, we need real WR talent. I mean, Ravens need WR help and just cut him after one season. So if he isnt good enough for a team who needs help at WR then why is he someone we need to consider signing? PLEASE NO WASHED UP RETREAD...this is a resounding NO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsSB2020 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) I would love to kick to see the Bills kick the tires on Crabtree. We're NOT going to find receivers without warts in free agency. Those guys don't hit the open market. He was a buried on the depth chart in Baltimore and played a large percentage of the season with a run first quarterback. He's NOT Julio Jones, but he's also not KB.

Aussie Joe Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Wow... he got paid $8Mil last year. His numbers were Ok... I think he will get an offer elsewhere for more than what Beane will pay.. I’m hoping they have their WR free agent sights set a little higher and they have got to be looking at picking up one of the top guys in the draft...

I think the QB play for his team the last few seasons hasn’t been great lamar can struggle to pass the ball He also always gets a good share of jump balls and back shoulder balls because that is the type of WR he is he comes down with 50-50 balls way better than KB. He would be a back shoulder menace with Allen. He definitely would be an upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 9 drops is a lot. Only caught a little more than half the balls thrown to him. The same website has KB with only 2 drops but an astonishing 25 catches on 67 attempts. At his age I would pass unless it was one year deal. He still likely would be better than Zay and could be a decent mentor for a new rookie. WR is a really difficult position to learn the nuances of the game. But that said, time to go young, tall, and fast. This team needs a gamebreaker at WR. FYI Calvin Ridley and Julio Jones had 10 and 9 drops respectively....

People say that Daboll runs the Patriots offense but the Patriot offense is completely derived from Tom Brady's abilities as a QB- accurate short and medium range passing with an incredible ability to read defenses and make quick, correct decisions both before and after the snap. It can't possibly look the same with Josh Allen at QB. His is obviously different physically and undoubtedly intellectually as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2catch Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Cmon now people. This isn’t the 49er Crabtree, or even the raider Crabtree. We seriously have to stop overhyping players cause we heard their name or they used to be good or “they’re better than what we have now” There’s likely 30+ receivers that’ll hit the market that would be considered better than what we have now. More cap casualties will be coming. There’s a lot of better options than adding Crabtree. And will be more coming soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protocal69 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 This has me thinking that the Ravens are looking to add some more speed to the WR room. We may be looking for the same type of WR help in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
