What kind of an impact do you think he will have this season? So far the 3rd selection hasn't lived up to his potential and hype. How do you see the Bills utilizing this guy, this year? I heard he has been looking good when taking starting reps in Robert Royals absence. Thoughts?

Re: Kevin Everett
I have no expectations for him. Anything the Bills get from Everett, if he makes the team, is, to me, a bonus.Comment

Re: Kevin Everett
I think that he'll only see action on special teams and in obvious passing situations. He would look good as an inside slot guy out of the shotgun formation, but his blocking skills are still well below par.
15 catches? 120 yards? Maybe a TD? He's got potential, but we have a lot of other weapons that rank higher on the priority list.Buffalo Rumblings - check out the highest-trafficked Buffalo Bills blog on the Internet! Proud member of SportsBlogs Nation.Comment

Re: Kevin Everett
The guy basically had his rookie season last season. There has to be a learning curve for him.
He should be showing some improvement this year. Unless he is COMPLETELY lost this year, which would be a bad sign, then next year (3rd real season) is when we can finally evaluate him - IMO.Comment

Re: Kevin Everett
You mean he is going to catch more than one ball for one yard?Originally posted by Lexwhat
He could double his output from last year and catch 2 balls for 2 yards, making him twice as good as last year.Comment

Re: Kevin Everett
Haha, no, thats not what I meant.Originally posted by feldspar
I meant that throughout this year, as the year progresses, he should be a better player in week 7 than week 1. He should be better by week 15 than week 7.... something like that.
His improvement should not be compared to last year, because there's nothing really to compare to in the first place.Comment

Re: Kevin Everett
I think the reason Everett never really got a chance to play last year was because not only did he not have a firm grasp of the offense but even when the TEs were on the field they were there for blocking purposes, so they put the best blocking TEs on the field which were Royal and Cieslak. However I think Everett has more playmaking ability than those 2 so since the OL this year should free up our TEs for passes I expect to see Everett more.Comment

Re: Kevin Everett
I think he has a lot of talent, but he was injured his first year, and has been a little slow learning the system. I have hopes for his becoming an athletic, pass catching TE, but I'm not really counting on it.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Re: Kevin Everett
Doubling one's production over one season is a tall order. Expecting that would be homeristic.Originally posted by feldspar

Re: Kevin Everett
Everett seems like a lot of University of Miami players - more hype than talent with results in college more from having a more talented roster from reputation. When the players are asked to produce as picked they usually disappoint teams. I'd rather sign players who were outstanding on not so well known teams.Comment

Re: Kevin Everett
I don't expect anything from him. Any production we get from him is gravy.

Re: Kevin Everett

Re: Kevin Everett
i think his performance so far in the ota's will not go unnoticed. i think he may get more play time now, if he stays healthy, because he is our best legitimate pass catcher at tight end. or so i assume. plus hes only going into his 2nd full season. i would love to see him turn into a threat. i am fairly optimistic here with that.
