It feels like Shady is in his last year and they brought in his buddy Gore. Yeldon will be the 4th guy and a draft pick ahead of him. The Bills may move away from a fullback. I could see that, they could go with a TE who serves as a FB in certain formations. They signed FIsher, who may be able to handle that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm..anyone else think Shadys days are numbered? It's really starting to look that way. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he were traded on draft day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillies Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Tells me the bills are thinking about packaging up mid round picks to move up for more 2nd/3rd round picks and don't expect RB to be addressed in this draft. I would actually like that.... Parley the 10 picks into 4-5 top-3 round picks. Go for quality over quantity this year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeldon is and always has been a backup. It’s the week of the draft where teams are looking to add young backs. He certainly isn’t holding out for a starting spot at this point. He took the best offer out there. 5 minutes ago, Wayne Cubed said: I could see that, they could go with a TE who serves as a FB in certain formations.

YoloinOhio Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 15 minutes ago, TheTruthHurts said: Shady is a 3 down RB. Yeldon wouldn't sign here to backup. He could have an opportunity elsewhere. I'm pretty sure Shady is going to be traded. Yeldon is here to split time with Gore and a rookie. Where would he sign to not be a backup? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turk71 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Have never been impressed with this guy at all. https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/rb You can go back the years and see that Yeldon's DVOA has not been very good the last 3 years. If you scroll down the page you will see the receiving ratings. PFF had him as the 59th rb last year, right behind Shady. https://www.profootballfocus.com/nfl/players/tj-yeldon/9469 I wonder why Spencer Ware is not signed, he is a much better player imo.

Bill, What happened to him? I thought he was going to be a good pro back. Now it seems that he is primarily a specialty receiving back? That is not to say that his receiving talents can't be used but from what has been described he lacks all around ability to be a full fledged primary or second back. I still like this picjup.

aristocrat Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Very important to have a great run game for a young qb. That and a big defense. Seattle style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuSeYiN_NYC Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 This signing can be two examples by using one object for Shady... it can either be the fire that lights his behind and run more focused, or just the fire that "runs him out"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCBillsBeliever Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I'm skeptical... isn't he too young to play RB for the Bills ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 39 minutes ago, FluffHead said: People on this board seem to overrate him. Living in the area I watched and hear a lot about him in Jacksonville. He is decent as a receiver but that’s it. He was a massive disappointment here. That said, he got a multi year deal out of Beane, at a time he seems to be loving the one year deal Bet it is really a 1 year deal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Beane certainly is positioning the Bills for BPA through all levels of the draft. Who knows for sure what will happen on draft day but the Bills should be well positioned to be much better on the field this year. I love these one and two year contracts as it keeps the Bills out of cap jail down the road. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills Blog Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 To all those saying the Bills might still draft an RB... Come again? Who are you cutting? Teams don't carry five RBs/FBs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I am not impressed with this unless it is for league minimum. Yeldon i have watched at least 6 or 7 times as a pro and i was never impressed. Overall i like offseason but this does not improve us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
