CorkScrewHill Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I was not a big fan of letting him go … but the fact that the Raiders, Broncos, and Jaguars have all had him on their team and subsequently cut him is shocking and perhaps indicates there is a decline that theBills front office noticed before making the cut. Best wishes to him .. truly appreciated his contributions while he was with the Bills https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/jaguars-release-john-brown-from-practice-squad/ar-AARh3q5 13 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I think we can be done with John Brown now. It's time to let him go. 1 2 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) That's got to be hard. One year he piles up 1,000 yards as a starter on a dynamic offense. Two years later, he can't find a spot on a crappy 53 man squad. Edited November 30, 2021 by hondo in seattle 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChronicAndKnuckles Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 If someone gets injured on the Bills I could see him getting picked up in an emergency role. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're gonna hit the wall eventually. Guys in his 30s. Coaches and GMs always go with youth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where the Bills miss him are on those WR screens. He had some big TD's on those in games against Baltimore, Seattle and NYJ. If I recall they tried to run a couple in the Tennessee game this season and ended up killing drives tryin'. They just don't have a good option for those on the roster. Diggs can do it but he draws so much attention that it makes it more difficult than doing it with Brown on the opposite side of the field. 26 minutes ago, ChronicAndKnuckles said: If someone gets injured on the Bills I could see him getting picked up in an emergency role. Maybe.........but they've been missing some of the things that he brought to the table all year and they didn't pick him up then. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I was a proponent of keeping him on a reduced salary. Props to McD and Beane for seeing something I did not, and bringing in Sanders who still seems to have the talent and appears to be a solid locker room guy.

Actually Sanders has basically produced about the same per game as John Brown did last year....50 yards a game.........but with a lower catch % (Brown 63.5% to Sanders 59%). Brown was hurt and we were down on his production. So it's all relative. Sanders had a very nice stretch in October but yikes..........he's been invisible for a month other than missing drive killing blocks. WR is a big need for next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowgirlsFan Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Interesting....I thought he was on the practice squad for "the girls". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 He was doing fine last year til he got injured. Wonder if the knee is not getting healthy. He sat out a while and when he came back was clearly never at full strength. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him get hot in the face with the ball a few times last year after he returned from injury. That probably did him in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me Dotson from Penn St. looks like a perfect fit in the offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Bring him in to the practice squad just incase we end up with injuries. The end of the season last year put us in a spot. Bring him in on the cheap. He was a big part of the turn around. Throw him a bone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
