Barry Sanders in his prime would have been awful playing for that clown show. If the price is right I would like to see the Bills sign him. I think he can be useful and it gives Allen another weapon to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolphins need a RB but they aren’t a contender. He's second fiddle behind Gore on the Jets. He would be second to Singletary here. The Jets running game is worse than the Bills---and they just cut him. His average last year was 3.2 YPC. (on 245 carries). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 12 minutes ago, TheFunPolice said: I guess that's something, but why choose a place where you'll be lucky to win 6-7 games when the money is the same anyway? It's true though that you never know what motivates someone... The Sabres just signed a top tie FA because he loves the coach and wants to be in a smaller city. That makes some sense, but wouldn't he accomplish that as a key part of the Chiefs offense, for example? Yeah - its just tougher to define a role when CEH has been largely pretty good so far. Buffalo would probably make him primary back as well as 3rd down. Singletary moves towards a change of pace back - and moss gets time to heal up and probably loses his role when he returns.

By the way: Yeldon is 6'1", 223; Bell is 6'1, 225; both are dual-threat backs with pass-catching ability. I'm not convinced Bell is an upgrade. Yeldon doesn't do something right which is why we mostly have him inactive for the last 2 years. We signed an aging Gore and started a rookie....completely new additions rather than promote Yeldon. This year, same thing with Moss. I know he whiffed on a blitz pick up against TN....not sure if that's a consistent issue.

BuffaloRebound Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 He got his payday. If he’s past that and looking for be a baller again, he could be a huge jolt to the offense. Our RB’s are very mediocre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a huge FU to Gase and besides the Bills need the win. Also sweeping them is never a bad thing. Bell agrees with condition that he can go to another team facing JEST later in season.

Bell is a better pass protector, has consistently caught 80 or more % of targets ( good hands and good routes), and is comfortable splitting out wide and causing LB mismatches. Prior to his 2 jets years, he was a pretty solid back as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 People still aren't grasping Adam Gase. Tannehill looked washed out of the league under Gase, his last 14 games his numbers are almost identical to Mahomes. Robby Anderson looked to be on the same course, a month away from Gase and he looks like a WR1. Davante Parker looked like a JAG with Gase, his first season away he also looked like a WR1. Gesicki looked like a complete bust when Gase drafted him, now he's one of the most interesting young TEs in the league. Either 1) Bell is washed or 2) it's another Gase affect guy. Given it's only money and we could toss him out of the building, I will gladly roll the dice. If you plug anywhere near prime Leveon Bell into this offense it raises the ceiling dramatically over Singletary / Yeldon / Moss. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't give him a contract with term but bring him in for the rest of this year is a no brainer.

DFT Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Opinion: We have nothing on our roster that offers the package of support that Bell would immediately bring. Blocking, catching, pre-snap reads, between the tackle ability. This would be an immediate upgrade for Buffalo. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
