    Tj Graham

    T j Graham -

    Is he Ted ginn or Tory holt?

    His combine could be ignored but it wasn't by bills.
    He ran change of direction drills which is very important
    For a wideout like no other. Bills are one of those teams
    That don't forget about special teams. Kick off are less
    Important these days but field position on punts is crucial.

    The problem with smaller speedsters is that they can't get
    Off the line of scrimmage. They get shoved and jammed
    And they can't get a clean release. The one thing about
    Tj that stands out is how tough he is. Strong and fast.
    That allows guys like welker to get off the line and make
    Plays. He isn't a polished route runner but he dent need
    The whole route tree as a slot guy. Crossing routes and
    Seam routes would be plenty right now. On 3 4 5 wr sets
    He would and could be deadly as well and will make it
    Difficult to put 8 in the box in any formation. He is a quality guy who works
    Hard. He will have to be well coached to be a good slot guy
    But he can contribute on special teams and 3 4 5 wr sets
    From day one. Nobody is going to care if we lost a 7th rounder
    Or if he was picked a round higher if he can fill that welker roll.
    His impact may not be felt either as his presence on the field will
    Open things up for the run game without ever catching the ball.
    As a hot receiver he could be equally as deadly. At very least
    I doubt you can call a good return man a bust. Getting 20 extra
    Yards out of a punt that has potential to go all the way whenever
    He gets his hand on the ball is worth the roster spot.

    Hopefully he's somewhere in-between.

    Ginn in the third isn't all that bad tho.

      He's automatically not Tedd Ginn because we didn't waste a top-10 pick on him.

        Graham is not small. He's almost 6' and about 190 lbs. I'm not sure why many people are thinking he's a Parrish type. He's not.
        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?

          Ode to Bills fans: Graham most vertically explosive WR in draft. Both short area burst + top end speed. Cons: Small frame. Raw route runner.

            He has speed, so that automatically classifies him as a Parrish clone.

              I don't agree... Parrish was a more shifty quick short burst kind of buy. He was more slippery...

              If anything he is a hybrid lee evans roscoe. He has good deep speed like evans but he isn't afraid to go over the middle like roscoe.

                And Parish was productive with Chan as his HC when healthy. I think Chan will know how to use Graham to take advantage of his skills.

                  He is more of a burner not a possesion type and he is listed at 5-11.

                          He's Roscoe Parrish if you add 6inches and 50 pounds to Roscoe.

                            If we do a 5 WR set & he's out there with SJ / Easley, it'll be lights out. Anyone who doesn't see this guy might be a monster needs to look again. Yeah he's raw & sometime runs the wrong way but opposing defenses had to foul him to stop him, if they didn't he torched them.

                            I like the pick much more after doing some research, he wasn't on the expect to draft list this early.

                              He's a guy that can play on the outside but also could excel in the slot. He's a candidate for be our replacement for Parrish on returns.

                              I like the speed and decent size. Though he's not a possession receiver. He's a guy that will get separation and can burn you deep. We really don't have a player like that... maybe Easley.

                              It's interesting because we heard Nix talking about the LT spot. He kept talking about having the protection to throw down field. And getting a burner makes me wonder if they want to start throwing deeper more.
