Shavers has actually been one of my favorite Bills to root for the last 2 seasons. Deceptive speed, 6'4", insane work ethic.. a true underdog in the Buffalo Bills mold.

 

He likely won't make the roster, but I'd think he's one of the first players on the practice squad. Great depth if someone goes down. Underrated player.

I am so sorry I offended the illustrious members with thousands upon thousands of posts with my choice of words. I should have used the word scrub, as Shavers is not a loser, just a bad football player who no other team seems to want. In the future, I will be more positive, as that is all that seems to be allowed here.

you have dug yourself in a such a hole here that short of buying a Shavers jersey, nothing is going to help. 

Don’t be so dramatic.  It wasn’t in good taste.  But this board could use a little controversy at times.  90% of the people have the same opinion on here.  It does get monotonous at times.

Let’s stop with all the “friendly” fire on here, yes? The Shavers dig was unwarranted, but so were some of the overreactions. A classic case of spiraling into pointless back and forth personal insults which collectively reduce our IQ to that of a Chiefs message board, and no one wants to see that.

You need a communication class lol

 

You're reminding me of this skit.

I felt like we saw a lot of Bishop last year and that's even with him not showing a great ability to lock down coverage.  Elam got a lot of chances.  Hairston will see the field once he's healthy.  I'd bet on it.  Who was the only WR to catch a TD from someone other than Allen in the last 4 years (for what it's worth)?

So you’re going to double down on the idiocy in your previous post then, maybe you go for a walk and meditate on your continuing capacity to be shunned by others with the same interests…,

 Nah… at this rate injuries to other players will force him into action. Don’t worry!

This is what happens when we don’t have updates to read. The thread goes in its own direction. Also won’t find the classiest Bills fans on this message board as @Leftbower continues to remind me with his roll eye emojis.

I can’t believe you brought meatloaf into this— an entirety unobjectionable food. Get some class. 

Meatloaf is the Tyrell Shavers of entrees.

So, did the Bills hold him out or is this the beginning of a “hold in” by Cook?  You can’t really tell from his cryptic answer but I suspect the later.  He is being a bit of a tool either way.

Expand  

Cook and a first to Dallas for a pash rusher? Hmmmmm……

 

OK, probably not but what else do we have to talk about besides meatloaf?

 That was my initial thought as well. I don't understand the reasoning of going through camp, saying you're here to work, then just... Not. The only reason I can think is he either got lowballed so bad that he feels slighted or that they informed him/his agent that he's getting traded.

Now I'm on team pay the man so I don't really want to see him traded, but he's likely one of the only few players they have that could be part of a big trade instead of giving up multiple 1st round picks.

Or....

 

It's just business.  

 

It's in his financial and personal best Interest to go into the season 100%, and to have an amazing year. 

 

He has witnessed quite a few injuries at camp. 

 

He is there. So he's working out and in meetings.

 

Seems like it's nothing personal and just business

Imagine if every single player had that mindset though. Didn't practice because it was "business "?

 

I am sure McGovern, David Edwards and guys like that are worried about injuries in a contract year. But they still show up and practice

A running back in the NFL has ONE chance for the most part to get paid.  

 

Linemen have 10 plus year careers.  It's not the same. 

 

A running back takes more of a beating than Iinemen. Linemen deliver the beating.
