Do people realize he is 6'1 but only weighs 164 pounds? What is going to happen to him when its snowing in Buffalo in the post season? He cant block, he isn't physical, and his frame is going to have a hard time holding up to 17 game seasons.

Nothing against Worhty, he makes a lot of sense for a team like Dallas. But if we trade up for someone, it better be a top end WR1 type prospect. Worthy doesn't have the frame for that kind of volume and work on all 3 levels of the defense. He is better suited for a dome team like Dallas opposite a legit WR1 IMHO. 1 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dline DE Hunter DT Wilkens DT Oliver DE Groot Von comes in on pass rushing downs this yr and next we get out from his deal. This line with the LBers we have would be arguably the best front 7 in the NFL. Then u have the secondary with Douglas , Benford and Taron that's damn good as well with Rapp and a veteran free agent free safety for cheap. Now with the draft go get 2 WRs in first 3 rds with a safety drafted as well. This way we keep the cap in good shape for future seasons with cheap talent at Wr. With the rest of the draft go BPA no matter the position that also helps the bottom half of the roster with cheap cost control role players. The days of paying backups with this team should be long gone especially since Beane strength in the draft is the mid to late rds there's no reason for us to spend on bkup dlineman or any other position. Basically the Bills need to consolidate pay difference makers and let the rest go. The Chiefs have done this and it's worked out great for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only measures 5'11 at the Combine. The 6'1 was a pipe dream. Agree with the rest though. Worthy has always to me been a perfect pick for a team looking for a playmaker to compliment a true #1 outside receiver. And I do think the Cowboys likely would be interested.... although the risk there is he ends up competing for the same snaps as Lamb who isn't a true outside guy himself he is more a move receiver you use at all spots to generate matchups. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yet you state they need 3 to 4 more!! 2 at RB is about right, will give you that one. Saftey- we only have Rapp and Hamlin they usually carry 4-5 safeties. Hamlin is not a lock to make the roster CB- we lost Neal, white, Jackson they will have to add at least 1-2 if not more LB- we lost Dodson, and matekovich. They will bring in at least 1 LB maybe 2 if one is a core special teamer DT and DE- we usually carry 10 right now we have 4 on the roster and Kingsley Jonothan is not a lock at all as he barely played last year. TE- i highly doubt they spend any resources here. Cap space or draft picks. You have Knox Kincaid and Morris who is a core special teamer and has been with the team several years. As a ERFA he can’t play for another team unless the Bills release him. ERFA are paid a minimum salary and he is one of the few core special teamer we have left on the team he will be back. They also have 2 other guys on future deals that were with the practice squad last year. RB- they always carry 3 and have 1 right now. I would expect probably a vet and late round rookie WR- They usually carry 5 but possibly will Carry 6 if one is a special teamer. Shorter has never played a snap and even tho Harty ans Sherfield we’re not great last year he never stuck on the roster or played much when he was called up. I don’t think either one is a guarantee. Sherfield is also a FA. Right now the only 2 WR we know will be on the team are Diggs and Shakir. I would imagine 1 of hamler, Isabella, shorter makes the team and we add a minimum of 2 WR but more likely 3 -4 with one being a returner/special teams guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yet you're ready to give up on Shorter who was just drafted last year in 5th round. Signing, drafting, and spending money on players that don't have a clear spot to make the roster is a waste and will keep you in cap trouble all the time. If Shorter is not on the team this year, that would be a big failure by the Bills in that they totally wasted a draft pick without ever giving him a chance to see what he can and can't do. But I have faith in the team that they are smart enough to not do something that stupid and he will be on the roster this year. Likely the Bills have room for 2 WR unless they want to waste more money. Just glad you're not the GM, or maybe you're actually Russ Brandon posting with a new name as this sounds like something he'd have done!

Say you sign a new guy for $2 mil, you're now committed $3.7mil to that roster spot and for a $2 mil salary, not a high likelihood the new guy will be any better? So for those reasons, while I wouldn't guarantee it, but good chance Sherfield sticks around as he's on a rather cash strapped team so it's hard to justify letting him go and actually improving much.. Likely the Bills have room for 1 to 2 WR unless they want to waste more money. Just glad you're not the GM, or maybe you're actually Russ Brandon posting with a new name as this sounds like something he'd have done! You should be glad none of us are the GM.
