Wasn't he the #1 WR most of the year, on a team with absolutely nothing else at the position? It would be hard for a guy in that spot to put up worse numbers, to be honest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 9 minutes ago, FluffHead said: There were a lot of options out there and we settle on him? need speed and I’m not sure he has it anymore. That’s correct. He’s a possession WR now, but according to PFF over the last 3 seasons he ranks 15th among WRs in overall grade and 16th in separation. Beane has really only gone after receivers who can separate. He should be valuable, but we still need a burner to take the top off the defense. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Can’t decide if I like it. I’m glad we added a proven vet that can get open and catch the ball. once I see the financials, I’ll be able to decide whether or not I like it. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GETTOTHE50 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 i hope the bills can still find room for mckenzie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delirious Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I'd like it if he was even 2 years younger. Pretty underwhelming. Looking forward to the draft at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milanos Milano Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I think I’d rather have John Ross, younger with more speed. But this is a solid pickup if it happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wettlaufer Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Huh. From Wikipedia: Emmanuel Niamiah Sanders[1] (born March 17, 1987) is an American football wide receiver for the Buffalo Bills. He played college football at SMU, and was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the third round of the 2010 NFL Draft. Sanders won Super Bowl 50 with the Denver Broncos over the Carolina Panthers.

Coach Tuesday Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Tougher than Smoke. And longer wingspan - he’s a contested catch guy and Smoke just isn’t. Sanders makes that play against Baltimore on the last drive in 2019. For example. And he’s smart as sh—. Great signing. 8 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Bills HAVE to get a burner in the draft. Not saying we have to use a high draft pick, but we need someone that can go deep and take the top off a defense, even if it's the only thing he can do. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Beane is consistent. Reminds me of myself in fantasy football. I want the players I want. He's wanted Sanders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
