Bills sign TE Jake Fisher to 1-year deal


Recommended Posts

Just listened to Bill Polian talk about Jake Fisher on Sirius replay this morning (from last night).  He talked about the Bills plan to run the ball and not be a spread team that tries to throw all the time.  He said the Bills have not had a TE that could set the edge and help in the run game, but they do now.  He was pretty high on Fisher being a part of the offense this year.

 

Along with Jake adding to the run game, he said Cody Ford will be a road grader and Devin Singletary is explosive.  

 

I'm all about running the ball to crush their will, then pop em with play action when they start to cheat up.

 

Josh Allen will play much better with a dominant running game and a shut down defense around him.

Bills' Jake Fisher: Shedding weight rapidly

Rotowire  2H AGO

Fisher said he is down to 268 pounds and is aiming for the low 260s as he transitions to tight end, Mark Gaughan of The Buffalo News reports.

 

With Fisher making the switch from tackle to tight end, a position he said he is much more passionate about playing, he has had to go from over 300 pounds to 260. He has made remarkable progress the last few months and appears to be close to his goal weight a couple months out of training camp.

Fisher was a star tight end and defensive lineman in high school. He also caught one more td in college than Dawson Knox.☺ Will be interesting to see how he moves at 260 lbs. In college at 300 he was an excellent blocker on the move in space and looked very smooth and athletic for his size. There will be a battle in camp for the last te spot.

I'd rather keep Fisher than DiMarco.

...helluva commitment.....look how 'Bamas' Quinnen Williams made the commitment to bulk up for positional change and how well it worked for him in college (NFL?...stay tuned)......interesting that Jason Peters did the exact opposite, TE to LT......
