Jake Kumerow signed to 53

I'm thinking he'll be on the active roster until John Brown returns from IR, at which point one would have to think he gets cut and returns to practice squad. Unless, of course, they view as contributions on special teams as so vital that they don't want to risk subjecting him to waivers.

No one has really said it, but the one thing our wr core seems to be lacking is the bigger possession receiver that can be that security blanket. Bease ends up being that a lot out of the slot, and Kumerow's singing may end up being more for special teams. But I'd love for Josh to have that big target he can look to in the crunch.

Just saw this come up, Milano and Dodson are designated to return as well. 
I wonder if Kumerow will be more than an ST guy...

Gabriel Davis is 6'2" and 210 lbs.  Does that qualify as bigger?

Wouldn't Hodgins be that? 6'4" and some said he had the best hands in the entire draft.

Gabe Davis has been out there mossing people. He has some size. I like Kumerow as an option but I think this only temporary unless there is another WR injury.

Gabriel Davis is becoming this guy. Look no further than his high-point catch against the Chargers on Sunday.

Isaiah Hodgins has a chance to become this guy, too, but he's apparently redshirting this year.

I'd like to see the Bills call more vertical plays for him. We shouldn't have to wait for a free play. That's been missing from our offense.

Gabe Davis has good size and a very good vertical. I see him as an outside wr who can make big plays, but less as a possession wr that knows how to his size  as leverage to get open and be a security blanket. Maybe Hodgins can be that guy, but that remains to be seen.

Gabriel Davis needs to be given more chances..  He's got a lot of Chase Claypool in him, where he can just Moss dudes on deep routes.  

 

I'd like to see him take the John Brown role, as a different type of deep threat, in these next 2 games.

Agreed.

I have very few critiques of Daboll, who I happen to think is an excellent play caller 90% of the time.

My one "wish list item" that never seems to come true is called deep shots. For years, we've heard "we're taking what the defense gives us". And while obviously you don't want to force things deep, it seems the Bills are more willing to let defenses dictate to them than some other teams. Opposing defenses play the Chiefs and Seahawks similarly to how they play the Bills -- soft zones, doing everything they can to take away the deep ball -- and yet those teams still take those shots, and they still complete deep passes. I'd like to see the Bills not be SO scared of what a defense is doing that they're unwilling to even TRY to throw it deep.

The rate at which ticky-tack defensive pass interference penalties are called these days is another great reason to dial up regular deep shots to Davis and Diggs.
