hondo in seattle Posted yesterday at 12:03 AM Posted yesterday at 12:03 AM I'm not sure his post is entirely accurate. For example, was he really 14th string? We would have needed 42 wideouts in camp to man 14 strings. If he exaggerated on that point, maybe he did on some others too? Though it was still good to read the positive comments and sense the growth in maturity. 1 Quote

I feel I read some good reports early on him. But probably fluff I have some memory of being surprised when McDermott said some genuinely complimentary things about him during camp without being prodded to do so. That's not something you see every day out of Coach and it gave me some hope that maybe he's learned some humility and an associated work ethic. If his head is still in the right place, somebody is going to give him a shot; I hope it's us. 1 1 Quote

Injuries most definitely aren't why he went from being dealt for a high second round pick in 2022 to being a street free agent reaching for a life-line in the span of about 15 months. Very little injury in his NFL history really. He was a head-case in 2022 but should have lost any benefit of the doubt when he ghosted the Bears in-season in 2023. That was crazy. Typically only see something like that when a player is about to appear in a string of arrest/lawsuit stories. The Dolphins gave him another shot and he just went thru the motions. Only months later the Bills pick him up and fans expect him to be someone entirely different. 1 Quote

BINGO. If a young man can get his head on straight in the right system. yes Yes YES let him try and compete. He knows that is all that he can ask for s another chance. Domer Domer Domer Domer Domer. for purely selfish reasons I just think it would be the cherry to have a guy from ND.

What reality is that? He was literally injured early in the first morning practice of camp. He missed the rest of the day. The toe injury "reportedly" happened just a few practices later, though it likely is what happened in that first practice. He didn't have an outstanding camp. He was on the sideline nursing an injury the team listed as "day to day" for 3 weeks then he got IR'd on August 16. Quote

He got hurt at camp but here's what McDermott (who has zero hesitation about calling guys out when they deserve it) said about him during OTA's: "Very impressed with Chase, really just starting with his approach," said McDermott on Tuesday. "Here's a veteran receiver, former high pick that has been on a journey, right, through the course of his, recently, his career. I applaud Chase for coming here to see where things go. He's very focused." "You don't find that a lot around the NFL, where a player has been at a certain level and then is on a mission, right now, to reclaim what he once was in that regard. Very impressed with his day-to-day approach, true pro, high character, smart player and been a good addition to the team." "He's working extremely hard day in and day out and embracing, not just the wide receiver role that he could play for us but also the special teams role that he could play for us," So unlike your false claim that he quit, the truth is that he was focused, working hard and impressing coaches before he got hurt. 2 Quote

Your "mistake" was that he wasn't injured and instead quit, which is less a mistake than just another outright lie. 3 Quote

I feel I read some good reports early on him. But probably fluff Bills are smart enough to accept his online application or not for camp tryout 👍 To counter He should know the scheme and methods. and a year off could mean full health Just doing devills advocate thing B B B Yeah, his shot was last year though. He got injured and didn't crack the depth chart or make the PS. That means Buffalo liked MVS more than him, and liked hamler and Shavers on PS. Adding Palmer and Moore over MVS/Cooper and Hollins, and its really hard to see him making the team or making any level of impact here. Quote
C.Biscuit97 Posted 20 hours ago Posted 20 hours ago I still believe in Claypool!!! Him and Mack Hollins were 2 of the greatest specimens I have ever seen at wr. Of course, it takes a lot more than that to be good. Quote

We should have some faith that McBeanes will kick tires and discuss within about a chat with Claypool. If they nod yes , I would also be cool with it. Wonder if Brady is aware of Chase's little commentary 😋 1 Quote

Your "mistake" was that he wasn't injured and instead quit, which is less a mistake than just another outright lie. Show me where I said Claypool quit on the Bills? He missed the entire season with an injury they called day-to-day until they abruptly IR'd him. You've misremembered something again and this time you could have just referenced it directly from this thread. He quit on the Bears. https://www.sportsmockery.com/chicago-bears/chase-claypool-reveals-the-stupid-reason-he-basically-quit-in-chicago/ He was a malcontent "at best" in Pittsburgh. It got much worse in Chicago. And he then ended the Dolphins season with what sure looked like a no-f#cks given effort as @GunnerBill mentioned. This dude's career went south in the aftermath of that Steelers loss in Minnesota on November 27, 2021. That was a LONG time ago. Quote

BADOLBILZ Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago 2 hours ago, Simon said: Yep, he 100% tapped out on the 2024 season when he decided the toe sprain was going to be too much for him to play with in 2024 and possibly all the way until recently. I didn't say he "quit". That's where you've lied again. Just like you probably lied about knowing he was a standout in camp last year. Saying he just quit implies that no compelling reason was given as to why he couldn't continue. He offered a compelling reason. But he still tapped out. The question is if anyone in the NFL believes anything he says and if any of it is even worth answering his phone call after what he's BEEN. A non-factor for the last 3 years. You think teams should believe in him and give him a 4th chance or whatever he's on. You also believed him when he said he had a good camp......which wasn't true. I guess we could debate the definition of gullible next. Quote

He tore both a ligament and a tendon and was forced onto IR for a long rehab. Quote
