Alphadawg7 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I think Shakir sees the lions share of the Davis touches on the outside. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterStrategist Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 According to our resident "know it all" poster, it would be Jake Kumerow. But in reality, Shakir mostly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Right now it certainly looks like Shakir is the fourth WR, i.e. the primary backup to all three of Diggs, Davis, and McKenzie. Hodgins could also earn a depth spot at outside WR with a couple more strong preseason outings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndirish1978 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 You'd have to think Shakir is the primary backup to both outside WRs as well as the slot. If we keep Crowder he would likely be the primary backup to McKenzie with Shakir and Hodgins backing up Diggs and Davis. I don't think Kumerow is a lock to make the roster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Pre-draft and training camp the answer would sadly have appeared to be Kumerow. Thankfully there actually IS a draft and training camp, though, where we have learned that Shakir is capable of playing on the outside and Hodgins is finally healthy and has begun to exhibit some of the promise we hoped for. In other words, the situation is not nearly as dire as some would have you believe. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 It's a good question. Fans are assuming that it's Shakir now.........but with Crowder having a very poor camp and possibly not even making the roster(even Shill Capaccio says 25% chance he gets cut at this point).........and McKenzie having not been a full time starter anywhere since he was in High School(and has shown a propensity to lose every job he's been given in the NFL).........there is a good possibility that Shakir could end up the starting slot receiver by mid-season. They are thin outside.........the GM knows it. I don't think they will call it a day with either Kumerow or Hodgins. A move is likely to be made in camp or in-season. Too much on the line to risk going into the playoffs with holes in the passing game. TE, Guard, backup LT..........all also positions that could stand fortifying. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 As unpopular as it might be and obviously this could change, but I think think would play Crowder anywhere they needed a guy. He’s a very good player. It seems to not be going great here to start but I really hope we don’t do something dumb like cut him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obvious that it would be Shakir. He's practicing at all 3 receiver positions. After this training camp to date, the first preseason game, and McDermott's comments I'd say Hodgins is not only in the mix to make the line-up, but he'd be a reliable replacement for either of them (No matter how many negative things the fill-in on the morning show had to say about him today.).

Help me with the fuzzy math here. Crowder has a 75% chance of making the team, McKenzie "has shown a propensity to lose every job" (huh?), no mention at all of Hodgins, and that adds up to a "good" possibility Shakir is the starting slot receiver by mid-season? You made more sense when you were just leaving out pertinent quotes. I won't at all be surprised if the Bills sign OBJ once he's healthy.

Flipnmi Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I think this scenerio is one of the main reasons Hodgins has a very legit chance to make the 53. Shakir would probably be 1st in, but it would be wise to have another viable option available. I'm not sure if that means keeping 7 WR's or Kummerow get released, but I suspect it will weight heavily in Beane's final decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBonhamRocks Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 A topic long overdue for its own thread. I’m not even sure if I’m being sarcastic or not saying that. Anyways, I’m hopeful a combination of Shakir, Hodgins, and come playoffs OBJ can man outside WR3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including mis-quoting Beane/selectively picking comments to support what we wants, etc etc. As you know 😁. Lack of outside WR depth has hit a level of insanity this offseason.

You made more sense when you were just leaving out pertinent quotes. I won't at all be surprised if the Bills sign OBJ once he's healthy. It makes a lot of sense going into the stretch run for this team. Well if you told me in May that there was any chance that Crowder wouldn't make the team I wouldn't have believed that...........he was a tremendous NFL receiver when healthy as recently as 2020 and there was no reason to assume that he wouldn't just bounce right back and replicate Beasley's numbers and his contract is exceptionally team friendly. And slot receivers are a relative dime-a-dozen. I thought they were set there whether they had selected Shakir or not. So if Shill Capaccio........who admits to softening his takes to prevent said players from limiting his access to them........floats it out there that there is a 25% chance Crowder gets cut.........then he is hearing it's more likely than that and just wants to be able to stake claim to being right if it actually happens. As for Hodgins...........he's missed the last 2 seasons to injury and has never played in a game in the NFL. I did, in fact, mention him. But why am I supposed to be sold on him? So he made a few receptions in the second half of one preseason game. Him.........and everyone Nathan Peterman threw the ball to in the 2017 preseason made a few catches. Hodgins also had a ball sail thru his hands in the first half as I recall. Fuzzy math would be you insisting that there is zero need for the Bills to pursue more depth for their WR corps and then turning around and saying "it makes a lot of sense" to sign one "OBJ" once he's healthy. Seriously? STFU You guys doth protest FAR too much. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeney is not an NFL talent. And Howard may not have anything left. So we have Knox and ???? As for backup LT, Doyle is horrible. No business being an NFL O lineman. Looks stuck in concrete. Tenuta did not look any better. Lets hope Quissenberry can be the swing tackle if Brown is our starter at RT. As for WR, don't count out Crowder. He will end up being a baller for us.
