3rdand12 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 On 6/11/2022 at 5:28 PM, Mr. WEO said: everyone was high on “Smoke” after one above average season. Sanders was hyped here at this time last year too. Austin might a decent WR 6 Brown had a made some great plays his 1st season as Bills. But he quickly lost something on the way with injuries Sanders is another story with hype coming in. Not sure how I felt him though. Austin may only have one good year for the Bills. Lets hope for that though 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Austin is considered an OG to NFL players. There isnt a skill player in the league who hasnt watched his college highlights. Do I think he will be all pro or have a massive year? No. A few games he makes a play or is productive for a game or to? I do. 16 minutes ago, Beerball said: What about reality sites? His numbers match those of pre Allen Beasley. There are only a handful of teams who can utilize the slot like Buffalo. Crowder was arguably a better slot FA than Beasley this offseason.

Bringing in OJ Howard & Drafting James Cook to me changes the landscape of our offense in general. I personally think JA17 will see significant growth in completion %, YAC, & overall throw for more yards than in the past. Without throwing more often. I see a much more proficient offense this year. I personally would like to bring Manny Sanders back at a reduced role & salary ( 50% less plays & salary) . Great in the WR room as a professional & insurance from an injury to Diggs or Gabe. I can’t see keeping Crowder, McKenzie & Austin. If Austin is kept move McKenzie to the Giants for whatever fair compensation is. Love lil’ Dirty but too many smurfs. Don't get too excited about OJ Howard........he reportedly looked washed in OTA's. Couldn't get open. No burst out of his breaks. Which is consistent with what some of the Tampa Bay observers were saying about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Parrino said it on his show 1 hour ago, ScottLaw said: Agreed… I would just hate to see Davis or Diggs go down in a playoff game and have to rely on Kumerow to play meaningful offensive snaps. Austin blows. I’m not saying that he doesn’t blow….. he might. I wouldn’t know because I haven’t watched his tape in recent years. But you have I take it? Or do you just think he blows because stats say so? If you’ve watched him, why does he blow? My guess would be that “He lost a step” will be your made up guess, as you haven’t watched him either.

Ok, so you really have no clue. I figured you were just being negative because that’s what you do. I was right. It would be my guess that you haven’t seen him play since we played @ Rams in 2016. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Costa Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I will be surprised if they keep all 3 smurfs, Diggs, Gabe, Shakir & Kumarow. That’s 7 WR they usually keep 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbillievable Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) Diggs Davis Mckenzie Shakir Crowder vs Austin Kumerow, Stevenson, Hodgins, Gentry. I think Crowder and Austin are fighting for one spot. The others for the last one. Kumerow being 30 is a real disadvantage for him, they'll want to keep a developmental prospect. Hodgins has a disadvantage because Sweeney has a similar skill set at TE, plus he can't stay healthy. Stevenens speed is tempting. Stevenson and Austin can also sneak on as returners, which helps them win a spot as WR6, and maybe as WR7 Edited June 13, 2022 by unbillievable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a bit of discouraging news that matched the scouting report from the former Tampa guy who came on Marino's podcast to talk about him right after he signed.

hemma Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 If Howard has lost it, maybe Beane can scrabble together sufficient talent to trade for a #2 TE. Pretty disappointing. Was psyched when they picked him up. May have another year of Sweeney by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be surprised if he makes the roster. They’ll need an upgrade to Sweeney if Howard flames out. Sweeney is a scrub. Yeah….those 19 snaps he had vs the Bills that game said it all. I’m sure you watched a bunch of jags games last year or caught most of his 30 snaps in 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Can't help but really like this guy...hopefully he can make the team and be a good addition. Definitely has the talent, maybe Allen is the one to coax it out of him on a regular basis. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003Contenders Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) Austin appears to have turned some heads in mini camp -- and Josh has been singing his praises talking about his work ethic, leadership, etc. I think he has a very good chance of sticking. Just looking as the numbers, I do not see why not. Assuming that they go with the the same number of WRs as last season... Safe to assume that these guys are back in their 2021 roles: Diggs Davis McKenzie Beasley and Sanders are gone and ostensibly replaced by: Crowder Austin* Shakir was a mid-range draft pick that the front office was very high on. I could see him taking Stevenson's spot on the roster. So that is 6 -- plus Kumerow, who was the #7 WR last year. Kumerow is a big part of special teams but I could see him being pushed by Stevenson, Hodgins and Gentry.
