Tipster19 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I posted about him some time back and it wasn’t received well. I’m wondering if opinions have changed based his last few games. I don’t think his ability was in question, maybe I’m wrong about that, but more about him staying healthy. While that is probably still the concern but having him, Singletary and Moss would be quite the trio imo. Playing in Seattle’s weather is a bonus and it would also save a draft pick as well. He’s a UFA after the season and I hope Buffalo makes a play for him. 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiltonWaddams Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) Looks like the ability he was missing was availability. He has been a revelation in Seattle’s backfield since getting healthy in the second half of the season. They don’t have a ton of money under the cap as it is, but if that projected cap goes up a little bit, I think there will definitely push to re-sign him.

NewEra Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) He was my rb crush his draft year. Shady was on his last legs. I thought he could’ve fell to rd 2, maybe 3. Then seattle swooped in and drafted him much higher than I had him graded. If he didn’t have this explosion at the end of the season, it would’ve been nice to make a run at him. His price tag is probably higher than what Beane will want to part with Edited January 5, 2022 by NewEra 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has talent, but can’t stay healthy and adds little to the backfield the majority of the time. I would rather see Cordarrelle Patterson by far than Penny. Patterson is on a 3 million contract - can play RB and WR and can run some of those gadget plays and he has been remarkably healthy across his career playing all 16 games most years and 15 games a couple of times. Let Penny get overpaid by some team for limited production and a guy that will miss between 5-8 games a season. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great fit in our offense (speed, versatility, durability, and YAC) and I think Diggs has already been trying to recruit him. For a guy who has bounced around and played well on a few bad teams (most recently Chicago and Atlanta), you'd think he'd be getting to the point of his career where Patterson would want to play for a contender as well. A win-win for everyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A win-win for everyone. I like this idea for the Bills. Not only does Patterson give position flexibility (RB, WR) but he becomes the kick returner, though he doesn't return punts. Outside of the 1 year with Patriots, he's never played on a contending team so that may be attractive to him. If the Bills let Beasley and Sanders go, Diggs-Davis-McKenzie-Patterson-Stevenson-'22 draft pick (2nd or 3rd round) would potentially be a nice group, apologies to the Jake Kumerow fan club. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of a K-Gun Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 The Bills could bring in Penny as a Beasley replacement and call the package Penny Slots. The Bills could put Penny in to defend late game Hail Mary attempts and hope for a Penny Pinch. The Bills could pair Penny with a bruising fullback and call that package In for a Penny in for a Pound. Maybe bring in James Conner as well and we can call the backfield JC Penny. Ultimately I'm just not sure bringing in Penny makes much Cents. 2 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 All seattle RB’s blend together in my mind. They pretty much all are interchangeable injury prone guys that seem to run hard and have 1 good game every 2 years, but are out for such significant periods of time, that you can never remember who is who.

bigduke6 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 i dont get the Patterson love. hes been kicked around the league so much that i find it hard to believe hes worth it. also, hes getting up there in age i believe. mbe hes a good fit here, dunno, i dont see him as an every down RB tho. fix the line.

DabillsDaBillsDaBills Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 0% interest from me. Singletary is fine as our RB1. Obviously we are a pass first team but he can produce when given the ball. Still 1 more year left on his rookie contract. Moss has struggled this year but does have 2 years left on his rookie contract. If we're ready to give up on Moss as RB2 we should just spend another mid round pick on a new RB. There's no point in going after a guy like Penny unless he's willing to sign for league minimum. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanC883 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 for all the "he can't stay healthy" posters: RB's get injured a lot. Even D. Cook gets injured a lot. It's part of the position. We need a great addition to Singletary, who, guess what, will get injured likely with a hamstring, etc. if he is used correctly. We need another back, and Penny would be a great addition (also, Mathison from Minn, whenever he is a FA, or C. Patterson, etc.). 2 hours ago, gjv001 said: Penny is a good back, but he fails in the category " the best ability is availability". We are fortunate that this years crop of RB's in the draft is deep. fine drafting one also. But we need another. Singletary gets hurt and it's back to Daboll passing and running JA all game. We have no capable backup RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Oft injured running backs need not apply. Draft one, maybe take a flyier on a guy in Fa. Singletary is fine. After 3 years getting a shot as a lead back imo he is doing good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now he is on a 3 million dollar contract and we know that Diggs was feeding him info about Buffalo with the wing tray. You may be right, but I think getting late in his career with a shot as a big supporting cast member on a potential Super Bowl level team - I think you can work some things out. I think the Bills could offer him a ton of potential positions - including helping to stabilize the return game and still give him enough playing time to make it worth while and he offers something we know the Bills staff love - flexibility. I think the options are there if he wants it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billieve420 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I wouldn't be looking at name guys at RB. Beane either needs to draft one middle to late rounds or find some gem in FA that hasn't had an opportunity yet. Spend resources on the O-line. We are a pass first offense with a QB who takes longer than average to throw the ball. Put guys around him that will allow him to maximize that and minimize the need for him to run the ball as much.
