2003Contenders Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 The key is Josh Allen. I do believe that Sherfield was a great under-the-radar pickup in the off-season. It seems that every veteran receiver we have brought in since Josh has been the starting QB -- from John Brown to Cole Beasley to Stef Diggs -- has had career stats playing with Josh. The exception would be Emmanuel -- but he battled through injuries and wound up retiring at the end of the season. Maybe not a "breakout" season, but I do expect Sherfield to make solid contributions this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warriorspikes51 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 when Sherfield was signed, I think a lot of fans thought he was a fringe player. But he earned the starting slot role in Miami He's also a very good blocker. He's WR3 or WR4 on this team 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People fall for the Mahomes-hype narrative driven by the media. And don't get me wrong, he's worthy of hype.. but you can ball out as an elite QB when you have one of the top offensive minds in the league orchestrating an offense led by a Top 3 OL, Top 3 receiving option in Kelce and a bunch of WR2/3 types. Mahomes has never been without elite weapons OR an elite OL. Hill/Kelce etc.. and then they traded Hill and invested heavy in OL. The one year their OL let them down, they went all in to fix it. Contrast that with Allen behind a bottom 5 OL, one elite WR, a good TE and not much else last season with Gabe hobbled and everyone else being complete JAG's. Now, I'll say, this year gives me hope. There was real investment on the OL (not as much as we'd all like, but there's potential), the addition of a true weapon in Kincaid and the addition of Sherfield who provides functional WR3 ability/durability. Harty is a flashier/higher-ceiling Jamison Crowder... let's see if it works. Edited August 8, 2023 by SCBills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddaryl Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 When I read about Sherfield and his troubles trying to get playing time ahead of higher draft players in Miami and Arizona, I felt JA and the BIlls Coaching would see it if he demonstatraed it in camp/preseason, and he would get increased playing time this season. Looks like he is on track for exactly that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where Mahomes has had the advantage over Allen is in two primary and very important areas: Play-calling and offensive line. THOSE are the things Mahomes benefits from that Allen does not.

msw2112 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Every year, there's a young, unheralded WR who has a great camp and preseason. He doesn't make the roster and is never heard from again that season. Sometimes he comes back and does it again the next season, and still doesn't make the team. I'm not sure who that guy will end up being this year. (NOTE: it would be a fun thread to post the names of those guys from the past). Sherfied is NOT that guy. Sherfield is a veteran who has been with a few teams and has actually produced in the league. He had pretty good stats in Miami last year, and he was the 3rd option, at best. He's one of those guys that doesn't have a high draft status or a big name, so he gets passed over for guys that are less talented or less deserving than him. He's showing his value in camp this season and he'll make the 53 and be a contributor. He could probably contribute a lot more than he will simply due to numbers. There's only one ball and the team has to feed Diggs, Davis, Kincaid, Knox, and others, plus, the team is trying to put more focus on the run game this year. I think he's a legitimate #3 and could be a #2 in the right situation, but with the Bills' offense he'll be somewhere from the 3rd to 5th option. He'll still see the field and make some big plays and we will be very glad the Bills signed him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 3 hours ago, Magox said: Looks like between Harty, Shakir and Sherfield there is a lot of quality depth at the #2 and #3 WR spots. Assuming they can stay healthy and with the addition of Kincaid, I think the offense could have its best year yet under Allen. 100% agree. I think the conventional take on the Bills is that it's Diggs & then everybody else, but Beane has really built out a versatile, talented group in the past year. Sherfield and Harty were both great additions, and it's exciting to hear that Davis is having a great camp and looks like a true #2. Add Kincaid into the mix, along w/ the improved line & running game, and this offense could be a nightmare for opposing DC's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again I will admit I don't know how fair it is of me to compare a WR with a TE. But to counter your point I will point out that true GOATs make their hay in the playoffs against the other contenders, and that's where Kelce makes the biggest difference compared to Diggs. Diggs' playoff stats since 2020: 75.3 YPG 5.3 receptions per game 61.7% catch percentage 0.29 TDs per game (this is honestly an awful stat) Kelce's playoff stats since 2020: 101.8 YPG 9 receptions per game 83.3% catch percentage 1.1 TDs per game The thing about Kelce that makes him a GOAT is that NOBODY shuts him down. Triple cover him and knock him on his ass and he still might score a TD on the play (this actually happened in a game last year). Kelce is comfortably a tier above Diggs IMO.

I expect him to average 3.5 targets/game on the season and to be a very solid weapon for us. Unfortunately for him, he is a very solid blocker and knows how to block downfield when our guys catch the ball, but you have to reward him and make him one of the weapons to diversify your offense. He was a great pickup. My two favorite adds at this time are Kincaid and Sherfield on offense and Poona and Floyd on defense, though Rapp will get more press probably. I wish we had a better RT and backup RT…. At least that’s the way it looks now. LG doesn’t thrill me either…. Sigh…. It’s the OL stupid! Do something great with the OL….

machine gun kelly Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 I know Sherfield and Harty aren’t the big names like OBJ, and D. Hop, but that doesn’t mean they won’t have an impact as the 3rd. Davis has the 2 spot, and with a healthy ankle he should make more of an effort impact this year. Harty is great for the gadget thing, and Sherfield will probably win the slot job. I think Shakir could end up on the PS. He’s not wowed anyone in camp so far. Besides, now we have DK2 for the 12 personnel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have followed him all the way back since his SF days, and this kid is going to provide some value to this team this year. I really liked his signing and I think he is going to prove his doubters wrong on the field this season and why just googling stats without context is an unreliable way to grade or evaluate a players potential. And Sherfield has been having a very good camp overall beyond just these 2 clips too and seems to already have good rapport with Allen. Of course, that still needs to transition into live game action, so don't want to over value that...but still good to see consistent positive reports on him. Like in Miami last year, he is going to be a role player barring injuries. So his stat line isn't going to be crazy otherwise, there are a lot of mouths to feed with Diggs, Davis, Kincaid, Knox, and then guys like Harty, Shakir and the RB's getting some targets too. Just not enough balls to go around, plus it seems a them in camp so far is more balance in the run game too. But, he will make plays for us and bring value to this team while also being capable of an increased role when needed.

I'm happy for you but jealous I'm in north jersey, I see the Bills every year at metlife, I'll be there Monday night, 9/11 but I'm just dying for an OP experience We were supposed to go in 19 and some unfortunate events happened . Idk any Bills fans irl. It's rare over here, so it's tough to get out there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Sherfield is a plus blocker. As good or better than Davis. Davis wont be asked to 99 to 90% of offensive snaps now. Sherfield will be on the field more often than Harty and Shakir because he can block. He will get schemed wide open when the defense thinks he is digging out a baker or safety but runs by them. He will be the number 3 in snaps. Shakir and Harty will look like the slot because they will play the traditional position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
