bubba2018 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) I feel like obtaining a player with a skillset similar to Percy Harvin, Devin Hester, Dante hall, or Tyreek Hill would add a huge dimension to this offense. Imagine the play calling that would open up and the stress that would be taken off Josh. I like Isaiah, but his change of direction ability and quickness is simply not there. I understand these players are difficult to come by, but I have been thinking that drafting a player like this in the first or second round is not out of the question or even crazy.

LifeLongFan Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 We should only really have 4 players in first round on our radar that will make an impact with this team. Devin Lloyd - LB / Utah ( Complete Game Wrecker) Damone Clark- LB / LSU ( Very solid and will be a day 1 starter) Jamison Williams- WR / Alabama ( unreal player and fast!!! ) may drop due to his ACL injury Jahan Dotson- WR / Penn State (quick, explosive, fast and good hands) will be tough for KC or anyone to stop Bills with Diggs, Davis, Dotson and Knox 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah John Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I'd like to see McKenzie on the team next year, but I'm not sure he wants to stay. I think McDermott burned some bridges with McKenzie by benching him after the ridiculous fumble on a KO return against the Colts. But sometimes money really talks. Especially if Beasley is cut for salary cap and performance issues, McKenzie could take on some of Beasley's pay as well as the starting slot receiver role. Neither McKenzie nor any other player is the equivalent of Tyreek Hill. We can't get Hill so we need to have the best possible alternative plan. That could be McKenzie, or possibly another player via the draft or trade. Maybe some team with a quick slot guy really needs a road grader OL player, and wants Feliciano or Ford. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 "I come not to praise McKittrick, but to bury him". ***** all y'all, especially those of you still pining for Andre Roberts. Dude fumbled four times his last year here, didn't get benched once. McKittrick fumbles once, benched for multiple games. I hope McKittrick stays, and McChoke uses him more extensively next year. We used to run the jet sweep 4-5 times a game, and we need to get back to that. 5 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyNoodles Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Bills want speed. McKenzie has speed. They should try and keep him plus draft a bigger WR with speed in the early rounds, maybe even the first round. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I like McKenzie. Whenever his number has been called he has produced. At the same time, I think he's kind of ready to move on.

bubba2018 Posted February 6, 2022 Author Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) Isaiah McKenzie will never be a game changer in the NFL, it’s that simple. We can say that he is decent, and we don’t want to see him go, but an explosive upgrade at the position is something the Bills should do. I do not want to see him on the team next year. I want someone with more speed, agility, quickness, and change of direction. I mean do you all really think he is an excellent gadget player? Where is the game changing play that he has made. Where is the play that makes your jaw drop? I want a player who does that, and Isaiah does not. And that might be too much to ask for, but I would rather the Bills let him walk and try to find someone else, than stick with him. And yes he had a good game against the Patriots. Not taking that away from him. Edited February 6, 2022 by recovery96 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does Beane for he mentioned him several times in press conferences. I guess it depends on OC whether he thinks he can do more with him than Coach Diabolical did. Personally I like him but I think he needs to try to be less of a rebel and tattletale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo1105 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Skyy Moore WR Western Michigan is another one I like as a slot WR.

Mat68 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 So far I dont hate the Wr Beane has targeted. Brown, Beasley, Davis, Diggs and Sanders. He chased Brown, Sanders and Diggs for multiple offseasons and trade cycles. Use that and look at the draft. Every year the fastest clocked guy isnt the best guy. If they go wr day 1 or 2 I really like Jahan Dotson. Fast enough to win outside. I think he has everything to be a deadly route runner.
