FireChans Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 1 minute ago, The Frankish Reich said: I just looked back at Kelvin Benjamin's scouting report. Guess what his 40 time was? 4.61. Guess what the report said? "Plays faster" It's a Beane/McD thing. They've been trying to find that big receiver since they came to Buffalo. One epic fail (Benjamin), one moderate success (Gabe). Third time is a Hall of Famer. Devin Funchess (bust) 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyBeets Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 https://ftw.usatoday.com/lists/the-wide-receivers-who-ran-slow-at-the-nfl-combine-and-still-had-pretty-good-careers Pretty formidable list, the problem is they were good route runners. Let's face it though, none of us are professional scouts, we are in a position where we just have to have some faith in BB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ said Big Slot as well. That is ultimately where I think he makes his money. Mike Williams is a good receiver, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 From bleacher report POSITIVES — Ideal build for the position. Built like a true X receiver. — Good agility and explosion for his size. — Very good YAC ability. Tough to track and tackle given his blend of size and speed. — Great play strength. Bully throughout the route and at the catch point. — Elite ball skills. Exceptional ability to track the ball in the air and find it at its highest point. NEGATIVES — Average deep speed. Has more than enough speed given his size, but not a true burner. — Footwork could be more efficient on sharp route breaks. Sometimes takes too many steps to gather himself as a route-runner. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, for what it's worth they have Coleman as their #4 WR behind Harrison, Nabers, and Odunze. I betcha they think Disco is groovy.

Low Positive Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 2 minutes ago, Bruffalo said: Coleman is basically seems Gabe Davis with better hands. I don’t know if that’s really what we needed. Another WR please Gabe with better hands would be really good. The drops were the biggest problem. And for those calling him Kelvin Benjamin, if we could get Benjamin before he decided that he liked eating more than football then that is a 1,000 yard guy. 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr-Bills Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 1 minute ago, Dr. Who said: He better be able to play on the boundary, because Kincaid is our big slot. I mean I hope so. Just seems like they don’t have to take away Diggs and we still won’t have any one to make them pay for it. I like kinkade a lot, hopefully he can be a Kelsey style target and open up shakir. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRH Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 2 minutes ago, Niagara Dude said: I see our offence struggling to move the football and Allen taking the blame, this team is worse off then last season. This guy is project and reminds me of Chris Burkett who was big and slow. You take guys like this in 3rd or 4th round Chris Burkett had that dog in him, and not the good kind. Everything I’ve seen with Coleman screams competitor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iverwig Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 It will be interesting to see how Coleman, Worthy, Legette, and McConkey compare in a few years. Beane better hope he pans out because Coleman will always be compared to those receivers and AD Mitchell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djp14150 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 4 minutes ago, beebe said: Can someone explain to me how you think the Bills-Chiefs trade came together? Who says what first? Do the Chiefs tell the Bills who they are taking? I don't get it. Chiefs looking to trade up…they are talking to like 6 teams on trading up and down. teams don’t discuss who you are picking its just negotiating value of the pick. You got one team looking to move down, another to move up. buffalo in their scouting seemed to have only 25 or so 1st round graded players.no 1st round graded players left so thry traded down. Thry traded down again to 2nd round. they did not trade down again because they likely asked for a 3rd or top round of thr 4th in a trade and teams weren’t doing it.

HappyDays Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Just now, FireChans said: Probably isn’t going to run away from people is EXACTLY what NFL offenses craved…. in 1985. These dudes are stuck in the Stone Age. Fire em all next year and make Ben Johnson the king. Nobody in the NFL is running away from people consistently except for guys like Tyreek Hill. Diggs wasn't doing that. A WR's job is to create leverage at the catch point to open up a throwing window, then catch the ball, then make something happen with the ball in their hands if there's an opportunity. Coleman I believe can do all of that. And he's going to really work at his craft. 11 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) Positive attitude, relentless will to improve, loves to block, can contribute on special teams, "best football is in front of him", can play in the Buffalo elements. Pretty much a grab bag of tired McDermott/Beane cliches with this guy. Nevermind speed, explosion, separation ability. Nope. He brings his lunch pail to work and he likes to block! Huzzah! And heaven forbid we not take the guy that JOSH likes. Worked super well with Ken Dorsey. *****. Mother*****ing *****.
