Some interesting photos from camp

[BillsWin]

Nelson looks like he could be a good vertical threat this year. He's got some good leaping ability. As seen here:

Also, look at this catch by Steve Johnson. I thought it was worth posting. He dives in front of what could have been an interception and secures the ball for a pretty catch.

I thought it looked like a nice catch.

I know it was only rookie mini camp, and one catch means nothing. But, I'm starving for anything Bills right now. I hate the off season.

[Dying_-2-_Live]

That really is a sweet looking catch.. thanks

Those are two examples of what the bills passing game has lacked since eric moulds left this team. Physicality.

[ServoBillieves]

Way to sacrifice the body without pads. Go Stevie. I'm okay with having Lee followed by either Stevie, Hardy, or Easely. Jackson? Who knows. Roscoe? 7th rounder is fine for me if he's gonna muff against the Browns again.

Dude Naaman Rosevelt is the receiver to watch out for.

That's why I posted them actually. "Physicality" is the perfect word to describe the photos. :up:

Nelson has gotten bigger in the upper body. Hopefully he can block some this year.

[Yasgur's Farm]

Dude Naaman Rosevelt is the receiver to watch out for.By all means... We should ignore all other accomplishments by other receivers and perch ourselves religiously on the nut sack of the undrafted free agent.

Shawn nelson is the key to everything

if he stays healthy and chan uses him the right way over the middle we could have a decent offense.

i loved the pick from day one and didn't think he got enough snaps jauron wanted that boring ass offense

Plus i like stevie i think using him alot more over the middle crossing routes/Quick Slants/ Quick outs will be very effective

QB needs to not suck also

QB suckage is going to be a major factor...I think we are all pretty much aware of that.

I just want to actually see some passes across the middle. Some throws down the seams would be ****ing fantastic.

The game against NE, at home, comes to mind. Lee almost got us back into that game by himself. Sure Fitzy threw the ball, but they just kept getting "near" Lee, and letting him make the catch.

I have been a big Nelson supporter, and was ecstatic that we had a threat at the TE position, with ups and speed. I know his blocking could use a little work, but that is made a lot easier if he is a threat to break off of a block and catch a ****ing pass. He made some athletic plays last year, and I am excited to see what he has.

I have long made jokes about Stevie, just because of the nut-riders that thought he was the second coming, but he truly was an asset, when he was allowed on the field in '08.

The tired argument about "no talent on this team," I have a feeling, is going to be put to rest pretty early this year. There is some talent, and we've added a lot more. The importance of coaching is easy to forget, as it's been a long time since we actually had any. Gailey is going to run an exciting offense, and while he is saying run, it will be fun to see what his running attack can open up in the passing game.

I am a homer, and I am the first to admit it, but that is part of the fun for me. I really like the Nix/Gailey dynamic, so far, and I hope that they prove my excitement right.

[Oldbillsfan]

who is the little boy defending nelson? lol

[WeAreArthurMoates]

At the end of the season I said that Nelson will be our 2nd best receiving option and will have a monster year. He seems to have gotten bigger without losing the athletecism. I'm expecting a big year, 45-50 and 550 yards with at least 5 td's.

[Bravo82]

Maybe Stevie Johnson can step up and be this teams 6'5 redzone threat! (because we all know Hardy wont).

apparently, steve johnson can not be a good nfl wide receiver because he was drafted in the 7th round and hasn't started a game yet. that is according to a lot of douche bag "fans" on this message board. i think steve johnson will become a lot better than josh reed was as a slot receiver.

[Griff]

if this is all it took to be a good receiving threat, Hardy would be a pro bowler.

Id say we still lack what we have lacked since Jim Kelly left... a quarterback. Our passing game will improve if we ever get one.

[X-Era]

Probably not, he would have to actually go out onto the field first.

Great pics...

It's going to be interesting to see how Johnson develops with Gailey at the helm.

So many of us wanted to see Steve get more reps last year and Jauron just out right refused to get the guy some time...

Maybe there is a reason for that... but I think it was more of a Jauron thing...



As for Nelson. I think he could be spread out wide at times. He has the speed size and hands to play some wideout IMO.

[Mike in Syracuse]

I think you're going to see our receiver group evolve into bigger & stronger guys. I believe Gailey said he wants "the biggest guys possible" out on the edges."

One of my biggest complaints about our WR's is that they don't come back to the ball and fight for it.

Yep, both Gailey and Nix like big, physical receivers on the outside.
