Gabe Davis Finally activated to PS

[Goin Breakdown]

Moves like this make you wonder. So how was it that he was trying out for teams, one or two of them a couple

times and then comes here but is so injured that he doesn't see the practice squad until week 9?  Why bother going through the whole process in the offseason if he was still a few month away from even making a practice squad?

He was in for visits with them. Doubt he was "trying out" considering he was recovering from knee surgery.  The Bills signed him knowing he wouldn't be ready for several weeks to the practice squad and stashed him on the injured list. Not sure what you are trying to get at, but it doesn't really make much sense.

Rehab at the team facility. Be in the meetings and in the building.  Once healthy better equipped to get on the field.  Sal explained it when he signed.

Gabe, White, Poyer, Phillips, Jones! If it were 2021, we’d be dominate! You know…….except when we played the chiefs

Well he’s faster than Coleman there so that’s a positive.

That was Tyreek Hill, on a relative basis.  Prove me wrong.

The funny thing about Gabe Davis is that his hands were amazing early in his career. I remember this vividly, and I was very surprised when he started dropping balls on the regular. I still feel that he has the potential to be a sure catcher, but he's got to prove he can still do it.

Is it not strange that essentially Davis and Coleman are for all intents and purposes similar players in terms of speed/body type but Davis consistently can separate on deep balls while Coleman has dudes stuck to him like super glue?

It’s not that strange when you watch Coleman do footwork drills.  He literally goes knock-kneed every time he changes direction.  I remember seeing a video of Stefon Diggs running a similar drill a few years back and being blown away by his footwork.  Keon is the polar opposite of that.  He looks like a baby giraffe trying to run routes.

Who's "Jones"?

[SydneyBillsFan]

The sad part about this is that he improves our 53 man roster.

 

Which says more about our WR room and BBB than it does about Gabe or anything else.

The bills have beaten the fans down so that we are now thankful for Gabe Davis 

Always been thankful for Gabe. IDK why he gets trashed so much. He by far outplayed his draft status 😂 oh and was integral in quite a few playoff wins including the first one in 25 years. He had a crappy last year here for sure

Because he wanted to get in, get signed, and start prepping. He's been in the install process and team meetings for months. If he's been a FA, he would now be starting that process. 

[Warriorspikes51]

Start him.

Palmer is likely out this week.
No trade made.

Samuel (not on injury report, yet!)

I've been a beer snob for, like, decades at this point but finally got sick of DOUBLE IPAs and everything else in that category

 

ironically, perhaps, I grabbed a 6'er of genny pint cans at the local sadness mart a few weeks ago and you know what? they're pretty good!  I remember in the mid 80s when there was one guy in our group with a solid sheriffs card and he would charge 25 cents a bottle for the genny pounders when he was buying for the group, and he'd net like 10 cents per based on consumers pricing at the time

Sheriffs Cards, my first business.

I think he just got slotted to high into the line up

 

If he had stayed or went back to the 4 he would have been a fan favorite for life

Im not being facetious when I say I hope he's learned how to catch. I want to eat a s*** sandwhich so bad.  Please baby Jesus give us a miraculous reuniting story about how Gabe became Devonte Adams at 26yrs old after blowing out his knee.  We need a miracle

The savior has returned...lol

According to McDermott, this works due to the excellent gap control between the car and trailer home.  Complimentary carporting is key!

I think the key will be getting another wr in trade, Gabe in that 3rd/4th wr option the drops don't matter as much or really won't be seen as much
