Frez Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Free agent running back Jay Ajayi is expected to work out for teams next week according to Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Is he worth a look? Will Buffalo kick the tires on this one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Probably not unless they get another injury to Gore or Singletary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChattanoogaBills Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Well I'd perfer him over Yeldon. That much i can say. As Yeldon has underperformed so far in pass pro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, YES I would bring him in for a look and see how he performs. Who's to say 36 year old Frank is going to make it through this schedule and we don't know how severe Devin's hammy is at this point. Hamstrings take forever to heal completely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffaloboyinATL Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Pass. Gore for power, Singletary for elusiveness, Yeldon for receiving, the rest for depth. We’re good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBills1998 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 (edited) Nah he’s done I watched him his last year of philly and he was horrible. His knee is shot and was a one hit wonder in Miami and got figured out his second year as a starter and was noted as a locker room problem and not a team leader although that could be because him and Gase didn’t get along. And the only games he was good in were against Pittsburgh and Buffalo because Rex Ryan’s defense couldn’t stop a nose bleed. Honestly I’d rather we take a chance on Blount, that’s who I wanted the Bills to sign instead of Yeldon Edited October 12, 2019 by BuffaloBills1998 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I’d rather we take a chance on Blount, that’s who I wanted the Bills to sign instead of Yeldon Kick the tires, they have nothing to lose. I don't know what you were watching. He played 4 games in a rotation and averaged 4.1 YPC and had 3 TDs in 18. In his last game of the season against Minnesota he played on a torn ACL. They had no idea that he tore it until Monday. He played pretty well in 17, too. I'd say 4.5 YPC for a career is pretty respectable for any RB, let alone one with a bad wheel. But don't let facts get in your way. He's a tough kid that would be best in a rotation with a max of 8-12 carries a game. He'd be a great 4 Qrt closer, if healthy. You think Jay is toast but Blount isn't? Do you even watch football? Anyone perusing just box scores would question your observational skills. You're seriously using his relationship with Gase to make a point? It's pretty transparent that guy is insufferable. The Bills are lucky to face his teams 2 times a year. Edited October 12, 2019 by YodaMan79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I do watch football and I’ve seen enough of Ajayi to know he’s a one hit wonder who only looked good against bad defenses and no he wasn’t that good in 17 he only scored 1 to the whole year ??. And his knee is obviously not in good shape otherwise someone would’ve picked him up already, there’s a reason he’s still a free agent pick up Blount or C.J. Anderson or bring back Marcus Murphy, do you watch football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your reading comprehension skills are on par with your football acumen. We're not talking about a lead back role. He runs hard, period. If you watch Philadelphia games, like you said, I'm not sure what you were seeing. You lost all credibility when you said Blount, so don't try to change the narrative.

Why have I lost credibility with mentioning Blount?? He’s a bigger back and doesn’t have a bum knee and we could feed that guy more than 8-12 times a game. Or like I said if you know how to read we bring back Marcus Murphy who knows our playbook. But honestly RB is not a pressing issue right now I’d rather us see trade for Stefon Diggs. We need a number 1 guy for Allen and we don’t have that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
