Lurker Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Food for thought. Maybe it was nine-lives future son-in-law Jason Croom who stepped on Kroft's foot... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to guess, he seems like a natural 190-pound guy who's bulked up and his body can't handle the stress from the extra weight... How many 6'6 guys weigh 190 pounds? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean lets not freak out over someone stepping on his foot unless its a real injury that could impact week 1 or more. That being said, never good to hear a guy whose had injury issues have another injury to the same area he has struggled with. If I am Beane I am closely monitoring the situations in Cleveland (Njoku) and Tampa Bay (3 starting caliber TE's essentially if Gronk is capable still with him, OJ and Brate). Would not surprise me at all to see Beane swinging a trade for one of those guys to pair with Knox as a dual threat situation at TE. Njoku or one of the TB guys in OJ/Brate would be a significant upgrade over Kroft anyway. If any of those guys shake loose the Bills should be all over it. 5 minutes ago, Lurker said: Food for thought. Maybe it was nine-lives future son-in-law Jason Croom who stepped on Kroft's foot...

HappyDays Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 TE will probably be a weakness this year. Knox hasn't looked good as a receiving option in training camp from what I've read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the case, then I think the possibility of Beane kicking the tires on Njoku's availability or one of OJ/Brate in TB would increase. I think Beane should, and probably is, monitoring those TE situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Back2Buff Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) Beane played the Kroft contract incredibly bad. The contract when it was signed was horrible. He had a chance to get out after last season with like a million and half dead cap, and instead restructured to bring the dead cap up to 5 million this year in order to have no dead cap next year. Everyone knew this guy has no business being on this roster this year and now he has to be. Edited August 31, 2020 by Back2Buff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Been saying this for a while.....instead of fawning over these high priced defensive ends we REALLY should be looking for a TE to pair with Knox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knox hasn't looked good as a receiving option in training camp from what I've read. I think you're reading A LOT into camp reports if you took this away from them. I believe it's pretty clear the focus of this camp has been to develop chemistry with all of the new WRs. Knox has received good reports on his blocking, and I've only heard mention of one drop (that I recall). That said, this Kroft guy is snakebitten. Geez. I think he can claim the "boo boo foot" title away from Sammy Watkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if we see a trade for another TE in the next 24-48 hours. I really do feel bad for the guy. No, getting your foot stepped on isn't your fault, but dang this guy is as unlucky as they come when it comes to injuries and more specifically, getting on the field for the Bills. Something's gotta give sooner than later.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
