Still has to be mildly concerning. And we have been super kind to Clay and Jones, so I am sure that will go over well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Like Cover 1 said on Twitter: Beasley runs such sick routes that he always gets the iso camera replay after every reception. And like Dak Prescott said: he's always open! PERFECT underneath security blanket for Allen. A guy who can take advantage of all the space underneath created by Foster and Brown running deep and Allen's arm. Love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, whoever 'fixed' Foster last year fixes Brown, too. Brown gets thrown bombs and Beasley works short over the middle. There is a little difference in catch probability between those type of throws Edited March 12, 2019 by SWATeam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Really don't understand. For. I just hope they will have money in the future to acquire HIGH quality free agents and be able to keep any emerging stars that we draft. However, if Beasley can be our 3rd down maker, that keeps our Defense off the field and makes the whole team better. BTW, I was really hoping they would draft Davis Sills(West Virginia), possibly in Round 3. He's going to be an excellent pro in the right system.

Cowboys fans were annoyed Scott Linehan didn't utilize him more. Talking to Cowboys fans up in my Dallas area and they loved him and now miss him so.. good stuff. Sounds like we got a deal on a WR that was poorly utilized by a new OC. Made his value lower and we bought low. (Relatively to inflated FA prices). I'm more positive about this than I was initially Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FistingBot Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I can't understand why people are bitching about signing veteran wide receivers when we have absolutely no depth at the position. These guys (Beasley & Brown) come at a very reasonable price, are proven commodities in the league, and at worst give us options for some different sets on offense. We can still draft a WR (probably will at some point in the draft), but it now is no longer an absolute must. I really like these moves - get some veterans at a position of need without breaking the bank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st pete gogolak Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Well, this (and Brown) clarifies things for the draft. No Metcalf. No Isabella later on. If we sign Williams, no OL at #9. Can get Oliver (now that we're going on 20 years, do you realize that Brady doesn't like pressure up the middle?), Hockerson or White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The added benefit of having receivers getting open when the play breaks down is, hopefully, Josh takes off less. How many times when the play was replayed did it show that our receivers were blanketed. I really like the Beasley pickup. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For whatever reason, our fanbase has become obsessed with the cap since they gutted the roster. They are overpaying these guys, but that's the way free agency works, especially when you have so much space. They've also structured the contracts in a manner that allows flexibility in the event they have to pay the QB/White/Edmunds a couple years from now. That would be a good problem to have. The real question is whether or not these guys help the Bills win in 2019. The good teams just wiggle money around to stay under the cap. That's the least of our concerns. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansLanda Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Beasley's stat line should be something like...40+ catches and 500+ yards with 4 TDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdrought Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 The Bills didn't have anyone last year that could generate separation within 5-10 yards of the line of scrimmage. Allen was bailing and running and getting hit a lot because he was waiting for 15 yard routes to develop. Now, part of that could be gameplan, but it could also be what talent we had. Cole Beasley is a guy who can get half a step on a DB and make a play 2 seconds after the ball is snapped. This is huge for how we run our offense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to be at his best when a play is extended by the quarterback. Got those wiggle moves that allow him to get open quickly. Don't love the contract, but it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. Terrific weapon to have, especially on 3rd and 6.

If we throw more think 70+ for 600-750 yards. Touchdowns matter but they’re also so scattered for players. One thing is for sure, this guy should immediately be Allen’s best friend.
