    Why Reed Being the #2 WR Ain't Such a Bad Thing...

    Just was looking at the stats last season for recieving and found something that says alot about how pathetic Peerless Price is.

    PlayerGRecTot/Rec/GTD

    Peerless Price16494028.225.13
    Josh Reed133441012.131.52



    He's the number 2 WR...which means at any given play, he's probably going to be on the field, right? Which means he should get more yards, TD's, etc.

    Well he only had on average about 1 more catch per game than Reed.

    Reed had just as many yards recieving as Price, and had more yards per catch.

    I say have Reed be number 2, cut Price, make Parrish the speedy slot reciever, maybe even have Lynch out there too.

    I just hope our running game is better this season because I don't like the idea of relying on our passing game when Reed is becoming the best option for #2. I think it has a little to do with Reed having a better connectioni with JP and also just the fact that Peerless and Parrish just can't cut it as number 2, or even 3 WR.

    He struggled on the outside. He seems more comfortable playing in the slot, I wouldnt mess with it.

      reed was on the outside plenty last year.. price and reed split alot of time as the number 2 and it will continue.

        They'll both be on the field a lot. I don't expect much of either of them as a receiver, but Reed should get the nod just because he's a better blocker.

            And if there is an injury? Seems silly to cut Price at this point, without a viable player to take his spot.

              exactly. This is a rotating system and JP loves to spread the ball.

                Kinda iffy on Reed as a #2. At this point theres no real alternatives though unless Price or even Parrish step it up. Reed has been playing a lot better IMO lately but is an ideal #3. Hes not the fastest and has a little trouble getting separation. Hed be better in the slot. We really need a solid #2 with speed or a damn good TE to REALLY get this offense going.

                  much agreed. I would give Reed the #2 spot over price, even if he wasnt a better blocker, but he def. is.

                    I would love to have a 6'4" 230 lb second receiver for Losman, but it's not going to happen this season. I think the real key to having this offense blossom will be having five offensive linemen who can block. That will let the Bills put their TE and RB in the passing pattern with much greater frequency instead of holding back and blocking. That will spread the coverage out more, and everybody should be open more often.
                    I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                    I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                      Whether anybody likes it or not, we'll go into the season with Price, Reed, and Parrish. These guys were all second round picks, and each one of them has his strengths and weaknesses. The #2 WR spot will resemble the running back by committee thing we got going on. They will all share time. It's not that bad. I predict some big plays by Roscoe this year, returning punts and making big catches.

                        stats don't mean ****, any one of our recievers could be our #2 and there won't be no drop off!

                          If we keep Reed in the slot, he will see even less playing time this season. I think we are going to utilize Marshawn Lynch in the slot frequently this season.

                            Let camp determine who's no. 2. Hell it could even turn out to be Parrish for all I care as long as it's the best man.

                              Whereabouts in rank would you put reed-price as the number 2 and 3 receiver if it isn't "that bad"?
