Deadpulse Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 1 hour ago, Thomas5737 said: 1 hour ago, Deadpulse said: The Patriots had guys in similar situations that wound up being unexpected camp bodies like Torry Holt Well according to the first depth chart that the Bills released: http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Bills-release-first-unofficial-depth-chart-/75a39d5c-7c83-4b23-a4a0-4d56b8074cb3   That doesn't appear to be the case here. IIRC Holt was listed as a WR2 behind Moss that year heading into pre-season. The other guys were a doghoused Brandon Tate, a yet to be realized Julian Edelman, 4th round rookie Taylor Price, and David Patten who retired on July 30th that year.

There are high hopes for their rookie WR as well. Tyrod is serviceable at QB, especially with such a good running game. he can't stay healthy though. that's a big issue. they have Andre Holmes opposite him starting, but he's probably better off as a #4 receiver. Zay Jones I'm guessing will start the year in the slot, but he has some potential. Boldin might still be a serviceable receiver even at his age, but probably not someone you want to rely on. Clay and Taylor are serviceable starters. I don't think Buffalo has a lot of weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just didn't get many opportunities on a pretty damn good receiving group and he probably could have been better than Roberts last year tbh. He's also excellent in the redzone and on fades/backshoulder. I'd say he's a #3 receiver ideally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalopy jamoke Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 the starting wr' s will be: Matthews Jones Boldin Streater Lewis Tate Rod Streater and Zay Jones have to be breakout players for us to make the playoffs. otherwise they'll stack the run, and laugh the passing game out of town. 8 and 8 is what I see. somebody unknown is going to step up. Holmes , you're right, is not impressive, but he'll take a roster spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom cody Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Good veteran add for the Bills. 37 so he's in the waning days of his career, one would figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiefMoccanooga Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I have a feeling he will retire a few games into the season. The same with Andre Johnson went out for us. Hell of a career. Mind wants to play, but the body won't let it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xmad Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Dude why even sign a contract then.... Man bills fans can't a break, then again their WRs won't be able to catch anything after Tyrod gets benched because Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmart128 Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Happened to Patriots before with Reggie Wayne but wow what a jerk move by Boldin. If he felt that way why even sign. He had over a week to think about his decision... as of now top 3 is Zay, Matthews, and Holmes. Guess we will be looking for surprise cuts at the reciever position. I just drafted Matthews in fantasy late in a ppr so this should atleast get him more targets for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
