Paup 1995MVP Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 21 minutes ago, Process said: I would expect Duke to get claimed at some point too. Vet that has produced in the league. Some team will be facing injuries at RB and snag him. I'd 100% prefer him on the active roster over Moss. Moss has terrible vision and not much burst. Keeping him over Duke and Blackshear was solely because he was a 3rd round pick and nothing more. Heck TJ Yeldon at this point would give us more then Moss does. I would be happy rotating Singletary and Cook at this point. Beane has put together an excellent roster this year, so can't be too harsh about it. But the running back situation is puzzling to say the least. Lets hope Moss can make some positive plays if and when he is called upon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Duffy Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Well it was pretty much expected. I mean while he for sure has shown he can make some plays, still it was expected they weren't taking him over Cook/DS/Moss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBear Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I liked Raheem and thought he could have had a chance to be a contributor after Devin walks. But if we could find a guy like him in the UDFA pool this year, I don't see why we can't find another similar player among the late rounds or undrafteds next year.

Freak-O Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 The safest way to get onto the Bill’s roster is to go through the Panthers organisation. Raheem knows what he’s doing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomur67 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 It will be interesting, in the long run, who will have the better NFL career, Moss, Cook, or Blackshear. Time will tell.

DCofNC Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I like the kid, would have liked to see him actually unseat Moss, but the reality is, he would be on the roster we’re it not for Cook being a 2nd round pick. It’s clear to see who performed better, but the Cook miss-draft cost Blackshear his spot. It would be cool if there was ever a decision made based on performance, not draft/salary implications. Beane has done a hell of a job building a really good roster. That is first and foremost, but McBean have made some real bad calls. Teller got the boot bc of Ford being a 2nd round pick, turned into an All-pro, the Bills favored draft status and veteran incompetence over talent. Now you see the same thing coming back again, Howard going off for 2 TDs after a week in the Texans system, meanwhile, Sweeney is inactive. I am happy Morris made the roster, but Sweeney? Really? Now look at Cook and Moss taking up not one but TWO game day spots because the FO can’t identify a decent RB in the draft to save their lives. 2 third round picks, and a second round pick spent over 4 years to have ONE, slightly better than replacement level RB on the roster.. I guess when you can’t sign a marginal $3M pass catching back, you should just draft a lesser one in the second round. Makes sense. They could have spent that second round pick this year on an impactful position like CB or LB, but here we are with a RB that can’t get on the field, when there are guys on the street that would be an upgrade to RB 2. I love where the team is, but the wasted early round picks bother me. There have been many opportunities to make this team better than they are and Beane simply outsmarted himself. He seems to fall in love with a player/idea of a role, for some reason and can’t move off that. It’s probably his only glaring flaw, thank God he was locked in on getting JA, I guess we will never know if it was really the case that he wanted JA or one of the others and had to settle, but he moved up to get that QB and absolutely killed it. Having JA will hide a lot of flaws, hopefully we will find a real RB eventually. It’s going to be ugly once Motor leaves, he’s not great, but the drop off means we are going to have to do something. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could absolutely choose to stay on the PS, not get playing time, and stay at the low PS pay. Or they can choose to go to the new team which MUST put them on the active roster, and get real pay. It's unlikely, but it's possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
