Marvlevydraftdaygenius Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I don't know how good Moss and Singletary are because this year there is no full-back on the team. I think the Bills need a full-back on the roster next year that helps on third down blocking but also adds a new options for Josh a Full-back out of the backfield on passing plays make teams cover everywhere.

Yeah we still miss that deep pass to DiMarco in the playoffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 13 minutes ago, Da webster guy said: Considering Dane Jackson is inactive and Josh Norman is in, you can see how much McD favors experience, even at the expense of pure talent. Yeldon clearly will be active, the question is will we elevate both backs if TJ seems rusty. Williams sure looked like a beast vs Miami, and that was no preseason game. Fumbling is an issue with Yeldon, maybe Williams will get the nod. I hope they go with the kid. Is he a pass catcher? Fumbling is not an issue with Yeldon. His career fumble rate is the lower than Singletary's. Devin has 5 fumbles in 374 touches (rush and receiving) for a rate of 1.3%. Yledon has 7 on 677 touches and a rate of 1.0%. Moss technically has no credited fumbles on the year, but he was part of a bad exchange and lost fumble earlier this year that was credited to Allen as the last person having possession of the ball.

EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I wouldn’t be so quick to pass on Williams. He seems to be a bruiser and most simply fills in that role for Moss. If it were Singletary that were hurt, I’d say it’d be Yeldon no doubt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Yeldon is better as a pass catcher. Next week do they want to run between the tackles or get rbs on backers as a favorable matchup? I think Yeldon fits the offense better. Against Baltimore or Pittsburgh I like Yeldon on their backers. Its an element the offense hasnt been heavily utilized. On the other side Williams brings a silimar running style to Moss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that Yeldon has soft hands and is a good outlet, but not sure what we have in Williams to dismiss that role out of hand. He did not post much in the receiving column when playing for NC, but that can also just be offensive game planning or scheme. He did do some kick return duty. Tough to say whether he would be a great asset or hurt us. As a pure running back he may well be better than Yeldon, but knowledge of our offense, pass-pro duties, and when and where to release as an outlet option for Allen, Yeldon probably is more capable at this point.

Mr. K Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 If Yeldon is clear I would imagine it is him. Unless Williams has earned some pt from McDermott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were Singletary that were hurt, I’d say it’d be Yeldon no doubt Yeldon is still the biggest RB and has the same top speed as Williams. I like TJ in short yardage situations too. As good as Williams was against the Fins, they worry demoralized at that point and I worry about putting a rookie into a playoff game with so much pressure. I'd go with the Vet, and my guess is McD does too... He could call up them both. Edited January 10, 2021 by Motorin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I'm all in favor of activating any RB who can gain a yard on 2nd and 1, or 3rd and 1. 3 attempts yesterday...3 fails. Has been a problem most of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 to reiterate Antonio Williams had 12 CAR for 63 YDS and 2 TDS with an AVG of 5.3 YPC against a “good” Miami defense. Yeldon only offers a pass option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Grundy Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Watching him run, he reminds me of Nick Chubb. He runs with great pad level. Got a little shiftiness and runs with a purpose. Can catch screen passes too. Very intriguing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penfield45 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Yeldon offers nothing to this team literally, nothing. We don’t need a RB that can catch passes, we have 7 WR’s deep who can do that we need someone who can actually run the damn football down the defenses throat. Willams and it’s not a discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that whoever pass protects and catches the ball better should be the guy. We are not winning with the ground game this year. I think it will be Yeldon.

Penfield45 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 We don’t need a RB who can catch passes out the backfield. there is a reason why he has rarely been active all season. Williams is the type of RB this offense has been crying out for this entire season. A bull rusher than runs with a purpose and can wear a defense down. Give the rookie an opportunity and he will flourish. He is probably more hungry to show what he’s got than anyone on this team right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But do you think McDermott would go with the lack of experience over a veteran? I hope he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
