NoSaint Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 4 minutes ago, Virgil said: Last year, we really wanted someone that could replace Beasley as that guy who found open zones on 3rd down, and that’s who Shakir was thought to be. With Kincaid on the team, Sherfield and Harry seemingly locked in, Shakir is fighting for a starting job. Considering where he was drafted and the lack of trade value, I don’t see Beane moving on. Especially since Gabe could be gone after this year it’s the tough thing with unreasonable expectations. people were incredibly over the top with him last year, and now there’s a weird resetting around him. he’s a late round WR. He fell for a reason, and may grow into a role but the idea that we replaced beasley instantly with the 21st WR taken in the draft was unfair to him. he’s got a good skill set and could contribute as he grows though. Or could quietly fade away as he hasn’t shown exceptional at anything yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barkley, on the flip side, knows what he is and got the ball out of his hands. For me right now it's Barkley by a lot. Yup. Allen has better physical traits, Barkley has way better mental traits, such as reading a defense 1 hour ago, Process said: So how did Torrence look? Unable to watch the game but was real excited to see him get the start. Barely noticed him which is great for an ol. Overall I barely noticed any 1st or top 2nd team olinemen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorter brings a completely different skillet than Isabella. And a better gunner. I was less impressed with Andy on kick returns, than Evans. Andy isn't going to get on the field at slot either....barring injury to Kincaid, Harty, Shakir, and Sherfield. I see a slim chance he makes the 53 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Interesting week 1 of pre-season. Game 2 will likely be the "dress rehearsal" game where we might see Josh and the starters for a few series and then the higher level backups and the bubble starters deeper into the second half. 2 minutes ago, MasterStrategist said: In fairness, basically Kyle Allen ruined any chance of that.

I see a slim chance he makes the 53 If Andy is the teams best returner I wouldn't hate seeing him on the roster. But its hard to put him at the top 6 WR slots given that Diggs, Davis, Shakir, Shorter, Hardy and Sheffield are all there and if the team carries 7 WR's for ST purposes where do you get that extra roster spot.

Bangarang Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Shavers seems to only be helping his case to make the team. I saw him getting snaps on ST but couldn’t tell you if what he did was any good. Don’t really care if Shorter was a late round draft pick. Keep the guy who makes more plays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. K Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) How do you judge these wide receivers when they are as erratic as Shavers and Shakir, making some great catches and then dropping easy ones? Tommy Doyle sure has bad luck. I hope his knee is not destroyed again. Edited August 12, 2023 by Dr. K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 59 targets 36 catches , 570 yards, 15.8 ypc, 3 TD plus has an all pro as a returner He was allegedly wanted by a few teams and came here for less $.. He's definitely going to have an impact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
