Buffalo716 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) 20 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Hey, while I got your attention, what's your take on Crowder's playing speed? Does it look faster than his 40 time to you? Would love you to wander over to his thread and weigh in. I think Crowder plays pretty fast.. he isnt a burner by any means .. but he's really quick, and seems to get up to top speed fairly fast He's been a matchup nightmare inside 10 yards for a lot of teams.. he seems to be open a lot in that area And he'll probably bring more speed then Cole.. I like the signing He's a crisp route runner 10 minutes ago, Doc said: Just curious, but based on what? He's out-produced McKissic in the passing game. If you noticed I said and blocker.. that means both taken into context Duke is a little more explosive and has a little bit more yards per catch.. but jd is a much better blocker Both have been fairly reliable receivers but JD is a good blocking back.. protecting Josh probably put that over the hump ... Never misses a pickup People forget that a third down backs top job is pass protection.. then be an outlet... Very few guys like McCaffrey who just run routes out of the backfield all day Edited March 22, 2022 by Buffalo716 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thanks for the information on both new players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thanks for the information on both new players. That's why I said receiver and blocker.. it's a package as a 3rd down back The biggest reason Zach Moss was taking snaps from singletary his rookie year was because of blocking.. the biggest attribute for a third down back People think that all they do is run routes and catch... The reality is they're blocking more often than they're actually running routes.. across 32 teams the biggest job for third down back is block and release Fred Jackson was a master, that's why we couldn't keep him off the field Mckissick is better at blocking and releasing .. dukes a little more explosive.. and both are pretty steady But I feel beane wanted the blocking asset Edited March 22, 2022 by Buffalo716 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
