C.Biscuit97 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Roscoe Parrish is also a small player on this team, but he's a gifted player with extreme speed. He's a tough player. Why do people think that because someone is short that he is a terrible player. Who cares if he become the 3rd or 4th string WR, he can still play that position quite well. What about small hands? Give me a break. Lot of Wr around this league have small hand but they still make big plays. I'm tired of people critizing players who are short and have small hands. Just let them play! 604203[/snapback] Especially after this year. It was the year of the small wr, see Steve Smith and Santana Moss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimBob2232 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 As soon as he starts dominating when playing againsts teams best corner, then I will consider him a legit #1. I like lee alot. I think he is a great reciever. However, i think he benefits alot by having EM here. If we lose EM i think Evans will be hurting. Not to say he cant be another Holt, Harrison or Steve Smith...i think he can, but I also think his odds of doing that are better with a big physical EM type reciever opposite him.

bschmoove Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Eric has made at least one player look like a Pro Bowler and we all know what Peerless is up to these days. Don't get me wrong, I think Lee has the playmaking ability to be a 10 TD guy each year, but he needs someone like Eric on the other side of him for now.

John from Riverside Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I dont want to think about Rosco being the number 2 until he can show he can stay healthy..... I would rather have 2 quality guys on the outside and have Roscoe owning people in the slot...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tcali Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I am kind of amazed when i hear that peopel don't feel Lee EVans can step up and be the #1 receiver. I have seen nothing but solid play from him week in and week out. there's rarely a game where he has multiple drops. i remember the Denver game as being 1 of them this year. Otherwise, the guy has hands of glue, and the top end speed of a dragster. I personally belive Lee is the future #1 of this team, and could be right now. In this previous year, I really feel we had a 1a and 1b receiver on the field. In the O sets where we would have one receiver, lee would often be out there. Moulds is a solid character, rough em up type of receiver, but is not a deep threat anymore with his speed. Moulds is worth having on the roster, he can oinly make the team better. I believe in talent and production, not in someones age. Here's for a solid wide receiving core in Evans, Moulds, Reed, and Parrish next yr. Evans is a stud in the making. 603856[/snapback] He is a very good WR who has shown a LOT with very average QBing this last year.-He could be a top 6-7 WR in this league. Great talent. Had only one really bad game in 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 peerless had the most overrated passing QB in the league looking for him named Michael Vick. Then he had a retinal problem. 604445[/snapback] exactaly, without that retinal problem peerless would've made something out of his post buffalo career. About Lee Evans. I think Evans is better then price ever was or will be, He has the potential to be a very good #1. Remember we're talking about a team in Buffalo that was never really known for any great wr stats. Theres no wr I can recall in the history of this team that's ever led the league even for a year in receiving yards. Andre Reed as good of a career he had never finished better then 5th in any season of his career in any receiving catagory. When you think of great receivers, no one from buffalo past or present jumps out. Evans has the potential to be a very productive wr, I dont necessarily think he needs moulds opposite him, but a strong running game and another receiving threat paticularly a te to work underneath and stretch the seems so teams dont roll safeties towards him, will be very beneficial to Evans career as a Bill.

Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I dont want to think about Rosco being the number 2 until he can show he can stay healthy..... I would rather have 2 quality guys on the outside and have Roscoe owning people in the slot...... 604380[/snapback] He will be #3 coming into this season. But the only way he will be the #2 Wr is if Moulds does not come back and we don't find someone to replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I dont necessarily think he needs moulds opposite him604451[/snapback] really? cause that second half of the Miami game when moulds left he I thought Evans went with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckeyeBill Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Wish he was bigger though like a TO or Moss 603880[/snapback] Except the best wide receiver in football this year is almost a clone of Evans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when it's all said and done we need to first have an offensive line that can pass block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like the Rams with Holt and Bruce. Bruce was #1 for the first couple of years but it has changed over the last couple of seasons (Although, Bruce did have injury problems).

The Jokeman Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I felt it was a mistake to take Evans, as think you can find quality WRs later in the draft. Case in point look at the Jaguars. They took Reggie Williams before us and took Ernest Wilford in the 4th Round of the same draft yet thus far who's been the better WR? That said Lee's played very well but as have posted many a time feel he's another Terry Glenn. In that he can serve as a #1 in an offense but is probably best suited as a #1A.

MartyBall4Buffalo Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I thought it would be a good idea in comparing wr's to compare them to the rest of there class. For this I'll just use the 2004 1st rd class of wr's b]3 Arizona Larry Fitzgerald WR Pittsburgh TOTAL | 32 | 16 55 3.4 0 | 161 2189 13.6 18 7 Detroit Roy Williams WR Texas TOTAL | 27 | 1 1 1.0 0 | 99 1504 15.2 16 9 Jacksonville Reggie Williams WR Washington TOTAL | 32 | 2 3 1.5 0 | 62 713 11.5 1 13 Buffalo Lee Evans WR Wisconsin TOTAL | 32 | 9 123 13.7 0 | 96 1586 16.5 16 15 Tampa Bay Michael Clayton WR Louisiana State TOTAL | 30 | 6 32 5.3 0 | 112 1565 14.0 7 29 Atlanta Michael Jenkins WR Ohio State TOTAL | 30 | 1 2 2.0 0 | 43 627 14.6 3 31 San Francisco Rashaun Woods WR Oklahoma State TOTAL | 13 | 0 0 0.0 0 | 7 160 22.9 1[/b] So compared to the 7 wrs taken in the 2004 nfl draft in the first rd evans ranks 4th in catches. 2nd in yards. 1st in ypc (I'm not counting woods due to only having 7 catches). and 2nd(T) in td's. Overall compared to the 2004 wr class I think we got a damn good player. It could be argued that it looks even better for evans due to how porous our offense has been. I dont think evans has reached his ceiling yet, with commitment to building the oline, and backed by a viable te threat I believe Evans can excell in the event we lose moulds.

eball Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 exactaly, without that retinal problem peerless would've made something out of his post buffalo career. 604451[/snapback] Retinal or rectal? Seems to me PP couldn't handle the pressure of being a #1 in Hotlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
