sullim4 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 There was a thread started on this at the beginning of the season, and I thought it might be interesting to rekindle this discussion given all the talk about cap casualties... who's receiving the most criticism this offseason from fans here, either deservedly so or not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Tremaine Edmunds, no doubt. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sullim4 Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 I'm going with Edmunds... it's a hard call between him, Knox, and Singletary. I think most are unhappy with the DL but with Murphy barely playing and Star opting out, our two usual whipping boys aren't receiving as much attention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I would have to say Mitch Morse. I think he's an outstanding pass-protecting center (the most important thing for our offense) and good in the run game if used correctly eg to pull, not as a power bruiser. Yet everyone seems to want him to be cut (at the expense of a big dead cap hit and not very large savings) and replaced by a popular guard who is a competent center, but neither as good in pass protection as Mitch, and was not as good in the run or pass game as some seem to believe. 9 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the desire to beef up the OL, but we may be a year out from that. It needs to happen, but our front seven needs the love more.

I agree with this. I don't think Feliciano is as good as Morse, and the dead cap hit of $5.5M just doesn't make sense. If you cut Morse, do it in 2022 when the cap hit is in excess of $11M and the dead cap is only $2.75M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilmann Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Knox for me. I’ve seen him drop to many with those stone hands but Singletary is a close second. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I think it should be Cody Ford but most seem to have written him in as a starter. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody Ford shouldn’t be the whipping boy in 2021. He shouldn’t make the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Singletarys drop ended our season imo. He gets my vote Cody Ford is a close 2nd even though he missed 2/3 of the season. I don’t want to see him start for us ever again, but I’m sure he’ll start week 1 Edited February 23, 2021 by NewEra 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 With people talking about taking a RB in the 1st and cutting/trading John Brown I'd say one of those two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 For me it’s Edmunds. I would say Singletary, but I’ve pretty much given up on him being a productive lead back and the expectations are just super low for me. 13 minutes ago, FireChans said: Cody Ford shouldn’t be the whipping boy in 2021. He shouldn’t make the team. There’s 0 to very minimal chance the bills cut Ford. He was just the 38th pick in 2019 and with the cap going down, he’s relatively cheap and has yet to hit his ceiling. Not arguing he hasn’t been disappointing, but I just can’t see a scenario where he doesn’t make the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Otreply Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 As of late Singletary is getting crapped on a lot, 😁 it may just be me but I find the whipping boy threads kinda funny, it’s the hot take “logic” that gets me chuckling. Go Bills!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was reading Chan as meaning he shouldn't make the starting lineup rather than he should be cut but maybe I read it wrong. Agree there is no way he is cut. He is a cheap, versatile backup if nothing else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen him drop to many with those stone hands but Singletary is a close second. This is true, but Knox gets open. That’s the most frustrating thing about it. He gets open and then drops the ball. If his hands were better he’d be great (IMO). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he played well against the Ravens and hoped he was going to play against KC. But yeah, he's definitely in consideration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
