There’s still no one on the roster who can make the catches that Duke made this summer. Suddenly catch radius isn’t important for a team with a QB who still has issues with exact ball placement. The next time Zay catches the 2 TDs that Duke hauled in, will be his first ever in the NFL. I think the decision was they aren’t keeping a guy that would be at best a red zone only wr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snydert317 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 About Shady. During training camp i spoke with an acquaintence that is high up with bills. He told me gore was there specifically to get shady to fully by into the team direction, which had yet to happen. He made it sound like shady was gone if that didnt happen. I didnt want to break trust while there was just speculation, however, now seeing he was let go, it looks like having gore there did not influence shady's attitude and buy in. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daboll better hope that one of the TEs fills that role like in NE. I haven’t seen that yet. So they have 3 WRs that are interchangeable and a head case with unreliable hands. I’d rather have the head case with reliable hands. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel disappointed about this also, but singletary does have shady shake and bake, and I’m just not sure whatever happened late last season plus cap hit didn’t stack the odds against him. Good news is is there is some cash freed up now I assume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always suspected that the Gore signing was intended to be a motivator for Shady, given their close relationship. Ironic that it ended up costing McCoy his job. This is certainly another "big balls" Beane move. Not sure Gore has more than 10 carries a game left in him. And he's never played for a cold weather team, so it will be interesting to see his effectiveness in December and January. Given who he is, I suspect he'll be fine. But until we see it... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
