Haha, good on Jeremy. I usually like the morning show, but I also understood why Beane put them in their place.

I asked earlier in the WR thread and earlier in this thread, how would the Beane critics feel if Coleman, Kincaid, Palmer and Shakir all had 800 yards next season.  Would that still be the worst WR group in the NFL?   

 

 

 

Absolutely not, I can guarantee that.  You are waaaaayyy off...

 

It would be one of the worst groups of wide receivers to ever play in the NFL, historically awful, pathetic, dismal, and they would despise Beane even more. (Yes, that is possible somehow.)

 

And this despite the Bills' offense again being one of the best offenses in the NFL, maybe the best again, even if they break all the Bills' and NFL records they broke last year, and even if Josh wins the NFL MVP again. They will still be outraged, furious. 

 

And calling for Beane's head, of course.

 

(And a significant part of their reaction, as predicted above, is sadly not even exaggeration.)

Locks:

Coleman

Samuel

Shakir

Palmer

 

Likely:

Shenault (can return)

 

Possibly:

Moore

Virgil

 

Bubble:

The rest. 

 

Moore is a lock.

 

As for Shenault, I looked it up and Codrington played just 69 snaps on defense last year, only in the regular season, mostly in the final 2 games (and in the 2nd half of both, when the game was out of reach against the Jets and they didn't care against the Patriots).  I'd say Shenault offers more at WR and returner than Codrington offers at CB and returner.  The only thing is Shenault hasn't returned punts in his career and may have to prove he can also do it.

This route tree is very interesting. Where do I find them for the other Bills' receivers?

To some yes.  They are too into fantasy football.  What if all 5 (inc Moore) had those stats?  Then add in what RB's, Knox etal also do.

Bills WR's/TE's in fantasy is what Patriot RB's used to be.  Put up good numbers as a group but you can't start one of them unless you're desperate.

Versatile is good when needed.

yea not concerned about the comp picks anyway. Sign him please

 

There would be no comp picks coming our way next year even if we hadn't signed Moore.

 

The only player we lost that could be compensated was Mack Hollins. That was cancelled out five times over by any one of Bosa, Palmer, Hoecht, Ogunjobi, or White. Teams could sign Amari Cooper, Von Miller, and Rasul Douglas between now and the time the Comp clock is up. We still wouldn't get anything.

and we Drated one and signed2 UDFA’s. Did you want is to use our 1st pick?😳 

I think it was a really good draft.  I would have liked them to draft a WR in the 4th.  But I get the decision and I’m ok with the WR group we have. I think it’s a definite improvement over last years group which still produced at an elite level.

Shenault is an interesting pickup. I think he has great talent

Word is that coleman has added muscle this yr. Maybe he can be stronger on contested balls

 

Okay, that's all fine and well, but did he strengthen his wrists, to avoid injury?

 

I want to see Coleman rolling up to camp looking like this:

I think his talent was greatest in college.  In the pros he's more of a Mack Hollins type who can return kicks and can hopefully return punts (or someone else with value at another position can do it).

True.  He doesn't have the largest catch radius and that's a huge problem for a QB like Winston or DTR who couldn't hit water if they fell off a boat.

Not sure many players' wrists are surviving direct helmet shot like Poyer laid on Coleman.

[CEN-CAL17]

Could the Bills have 5 pass catchers with 50+ receptions next year???

 

Coleman, Shakir, Palmer, Moore, Kincaid

 

Thing is…. I think it’s possible but don’t know if any will have over 75.

50 is a bit much.

 

They could all hit 35-40 each though I’d say

 

depends what happens over the summer.

 

a few may separate themselves as earning much higher snap %
