Beerball Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 No injury issues that I know of. Jags cut him at the end of camp last year. link Minnesota cut him because he didn't fit in to Childress' offense. Meaning he probably was making too much. link too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Anderson's Lunch Pail Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I've never been crazy about him. Always seems to be out of shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike In Illinois Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 So another question is whether the weight loss puts him back around the playing weight he was a few years ago? I agree that if he's healthy he's worth a shot, but does he want to play in Buffalo and do they have interest in him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 He seems to have gashed the bills when we have played against him at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ans4e64 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Oh good, he dropped 15lbs. So, he's what now, bout 450? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Didnt we get pissed when we signed a TE that was out of football last year already this season? I dont think we are signing anyone else this offseason, in fact i would be surprised if we drafted a TE before round 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ax4782 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Didnt we get pissed when we signed a TE that was out of football last year already this season? I dont think we are signing anyone else this offseason, in fact i would be surprised if we drafted a TE before round 4 While I don't think the Bills take a look at Wiggins, I don't think they are going to wait until the 4th to take a TE. If they trade down and pick up an additional 2nd, I would be willing to bet that they grab Fred Davis if he is there, or Dustin Keller, or Kellen Davis. Buffalo NEEDS a TE and I expect us to address our three pressing needs in the first four rounds. I expect a WR in the First, a TE in the second, a CB in the Third, a C in the Fourth and Owen Schmidt in the Fifth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect a WR in the First, a TE in the second, a CB in the Third, a C in the Fourth and Owen Schmidt in the Fifth. The only reason i say that is bc we did sign 2 TEs, (Teyo Johnson, and Courtney Anderson) and we still have Robert Royle, who the coaches like for his blocking and he is well liked in the locker room, Schoman who showed something before he got hurt and Tim Marquaossi who i dont know much about. 5 TEs already on the roster with only one fairly proven in Royle. Maybe a third rounder depending on whats available but i wouldnt be surprised if they waited awhile to draft a TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
