Chicken Boo Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 This might be Claypool's last shot in the league, so I expect him to give it his all. I like the signing. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 12 minutes ago, NewEra said: Yeah I realize jones was good at one point in his career. He’s been bad/unwanted the last 3. I didn’t say Spector was a lock. I separated them due to being on the team last season. I thought he play relatively well last year and would give him the nod over Jones at this point. Jmo I think Jones and Spector are battling for the Matekavic role. Special teams but offer something on defense in coverage if needed.

Odell Beckham Jr signs with a team that already employs Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Braxton Berrios, and just drafted Malik Washington. The Bills sign...Chase Claypool and Quintez Cephus. I'm sure I'll get a few thumbs down and eyeroll emojis for pointing out the wildly uninspiring way in which the Bills are approaching the wide receiver position. Whatever. Pour me a ***** shot. I'd take the upside Claypool has over Beckham who's much older and been coming back from injuries, both have had attitude issues one is 6 years older than the other. I mean the thing I like about this is Claypool showed his talent with the Steelers and Big Ben but then things went south. He's facing falling out the league without having even gotten a big second contract anywhere. This is exactly the kind of situation where you can find a guy trying to rebuild himself coming to a team with a great culture to do it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not see any difference in any name on this list. All of them put up numbers 2 to 3 years ago. Picking the younger guys inspires some hope they could reach those numbers again. Post draft FA signings are all similar unless its a real deal with real guaranteed money like Flloyd last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Sure. I think sometimes these signings are more of favors to agents. You can't coach attitude and work ethic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claypool is in a tier of his own. He’s the only one that was eligible to play and healthy, but wasn’t given playing time because he sucks and can’t stop committing mental error. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with what you say here. If you think of Kincaid as our default 1, with Knox as the traditional TE and then Coleman, Samuel and Shakir as WR2’s, you can reasonably talk yourself off the ledge, but it’s a lot of projection. On the bright side, we have a better OL than teams like the Jets, Fins and Titans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) 28 minutes ago, JerseyBills said: put up numbers year 1 and 2, maybe he can have a rookie Gabe Davis type role QBs matter. Also Miami had him switch to TE mid season after signing him. This is the best opportunity he’s had. An interesting side story is Trubisky was part of the Steelers when Claypool was traded. I’m guessing he gave a positive review of him. Edited May 3 by Buffalo_Stampede Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may not be the case now but I don't see how Spector is a lock for the 53. I doubt Smoot makes the 53. Camp body so Miller can rest. Honestly, Smoot may be one of the better run defending DEs after Groot and AJ. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
