He was on Sirius and he stated that three teams contacted him, the Giants, Jets, and Bills. Thought I would share the info.

Re: Tee Rucker, TE, Missouri just stated the Bills have contacted him
Good News... obviously they are looking to add a TE early. They have been in contact with Kellen Davis, John Carlson and now Rucker. Probably with Bennett and Fred Davis as well. Probably looking to take one in the third.Originally posted by TheGhostofJimKelly -
Re: Tee Rucker, TE, Missouri just stated the Bills have contacted him
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: Tee Rucker, TE, Missouri just stated the Bills have contacted him
This guy would definately help our team, he would be an upgrade over Michael Gaines from last year, that's for sure. It's relieving to see that the Bills have had contact with three decent recieving TE's in: Carlson, Davis and now Rucker.

He reportedly is an H-back type. Not much of a blocker, but a good receiver.
Hard to say, though. I think TE is one of the hardest positions to project to the NFL.Comment

Martin "Tee" Rucker to fix any possible confusion.

Re: Tee Rucker, TE, Missouri just stated the Bills have contacted him
VERY early in the mock draft stages (I'm talking week 16 of 2007 season), people had him pegged in the 1st round and some had us taking him between 9-17 (before draft order was determined). Not sure what happened to him though. DB?Originally posted by pinkdogg32

Re: Tee Rucker, TE, Missouri just stated the Bills have contacted him
Measured a little smaller and slower than was expected. Didnt really wow at the Senior Bowl, or at his pro day workouts. He subsequently fell. Its a very weak overall TE class, but I got Rucker as my top guy. I see him going in Round 3, some have him going as late as 5.Originally posted by OafCOMING SOON...

I really think he will be there at 41, and if we trade down from 11 and say grab Sweed, or Thomas at like 19-22, it is a no brainer to take Bennett in the 2nd, i think he is got the most potential in the redzone of any TE in the draft, that is exactly what we need him for!XTRA CRISPY XTRA SAUCEYComment

Re: Tee Rucker, TE, Missouri just stated the Bills have contacted him
I really like Bennett. I don't see Rucker going before round 4 or 5...
Bennett, Keller, Carlson, Davis, Cottam and maybe even Finley should all go before Rucker.

Re: Tee Rucker, TE, Missouri just stated the Bills have contacted him
Reportedly, did poorly blocking as a TE at the Senior Bowl, but looked much better as an H-Back and caught the ball well. Had a hamstring injury and couldn't work out at the combine, and he did just OK at his Pro Day (4.71 40).Originally posted by Oaf
The fact that he is might be more of an H-Back than a pure TE has hurt him. However, the guy was really productive as a receiver in college (184 receptions the last 3 seasons) and is athletic enough to run seam routes against a Cover-2. I've read he has concentration lapses, but that is a lot of receptions.
He may in fact go higher than than expected, as his production in the passing game warrants it. It really comes down to how a team plans to utilize their TE, as some will value him more than others.Comment
