Great reach He still needs to train for muscling out of those short area cuts to get off coverage. And foot work plus leverage are key that type type of receiver. Even if it aint pretty. he is a big boy after all lol Quote

Sojourner Posted yesterday at 10:24 PM Posted yesterday at 10:24 PM Expectations should be high for a guy picked, essentially in the first round. Especially now he’s a second year player and really, for the position, is only battling Shakir and Palmer to be the guy Josh leans on. Now obviously and I might be wrong, he isn’t overtaking Shakir in that regard but Palmer is fresh on the team so he should be ahead of the curve there. 1 Quote

How would you best use these guys if you were Joe Brady Using the Everyone eats mantra ? I think Bills really look hard at game Day matchups , and each WR we have now fits a particular "type" as compared to X Y Z. Bills were lacking confident speed to get to the top. Coleman has another role for sure. Like to see how he would fit along with current likely starters 1 Quote

Contested catches and RZ is where he’ll always make his living imo. Don’t know how you make that your bread and butter as a go to guy. He isn’t Moss or Megatron. Wholly agree in him having a role, it just might only be the above? 1 1 Quote

I think he might improve his separation , learning to use his body and reach. Not that burst thing though lol If he can hand fight to get off the line and out leverage, or turn a guy? He might be able to hunt down one of Joshes crazy long throws a few times he is no stop and go player thats for sure 1 Quote
Buffalo716 Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago I can't believe people are clowning on Coleman for working lol And to anybody who thinks that will not improve your short area quickness or release package at all.. it does First of all not everybody can be Jerry Rice off the line of scrimmage.. but even plaxico burress needed to have a little bit of this in his bag There's a reason why professional trainers have wide receivers doing drills like this.. because if you do it for a month straight it pays off 1 Quote

It's also mental. counting steps, angles to and from the point of pivot. Not giving away your next angle so much more 🙂 Thanks 716 1 minute ago, Dunkirk Donski said: Dudes still finishing routes from last year Better late than never my Grandma used to say.

C.Biscuit97 Posted 19 hours ago Posted 19 hours ago Hated the pick (wanted Ladd and got more mad). So I have no expectations and hopefully he made some positive gains in the offseason. Quote
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago 11 hours ago, C.Biscuit97 said: Hated the pick (wanted Ladd and got more mad). So I have no expectations and hopefully he made some positive gains in the offseason. I think the challenge there was fit with a boundary receiver who's a plus blocker. None of that is really his game, and depth wise they had Shakir and Samuel. They've since added Moore as another similar type of player to McConkey. Is McConkey as effective a player when outdoors, or when its cold ? It's a small sample size, but the splits suggest - no, he is not - https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/M/McCoLa00/splits/2024/. And that was with this slate of outdoor games: New England, Cleveland, Denver, Pittsburgh, and Carolina. So 3 of the worst teams in the league, and 2 playoff teams where he had 7 catches on 14 targets for 77 yards and 0 TDs. It's hard to say one way or another with a really small sample, but i do think sub 9" hands can be an issue with a cold wet ball. 1 Quote
