Probably an unpopular opinion-Shady is probably more valuable than Frank G


Recommended Posts

And I say that as someone who loves Frank. The Bills certainly could have afforded McCoy. He’s just a lot more versatile than Frank at this point. When Gore is in there, his role is insanely predictable, which makes the offense more predictable. McCoy is having a sneaky good season. He is averaging 4.9 ypc and has 27 receptions on 31 targets.

I would be just as fine with Yeldon as McCoy. 
Need that third guy rotating in to help I think. I don’t have an issue with gore getting some touches, but they always seem to be at big moments or when we really need a play. Gore is good for his 3-5 yard pound occasionally and singletary has been a life saver but I think they’re missing that third guy to rotate in and help out.

Don't see it. they are both old and done.

4.9 ypc and an 88 percent catch rate suggest otherwise. Last year, shady’s season was a mirage - kinda like Sony Michel’s this year and Marshawn Lynch’s final dozen or so games as a Bill. Teams key on them because they don’t respect the passing game, and they get hit in the backfield on no-chance plays at an inordinate rate.

How many minutes is shady playing per game? wasn't he a healthy scratch for a game?

i just don't think he is a big difference maker anymore.

I don’t think Singeltary Progresses like he has with McCoy playing “mentor”
