Re: Nix: Add TE to the list
Is it just me, or have those 4 positions been holes for Nix's entire tenure? Granted, we had some bigger holes that were filled and he can't do it all at once, but it just seems like we've been complaining about these positions since the Jauron days with no results.
Re: Nix: Add TE to the list
I would think that we'd go TE in Free Agency. These guys should all be available:
Fred Davis
Dustin Keller
Jared Cook
Martellus Bennett
Brandon Myers
James Casey
Ben Watson
Anthony Fasano
Delanie Walker
Kellen Winslow
Todd Heap
Jeremy Shockey
Visanthe Shiancoe
Chris Cooley
Dante Rosario
Travis Beckum
I'd love Bennett, but he says he wants to stay in NY, and would give them a discount. And they want to keep him, so I doubt he hits free agency. I'd be happy with Delanie Walker.
Re: Nix: Add TE to the list
I'll be surprised if the Skins let Davis go.
But I wouldn't give him big money. He's one joint away from a year suspension.

Id like Cook, Davis, Bennett, Myers, or Casey. theres actually a surprising number of decent TE's available.

It's not like we could have drafted Gronkowski or Hernandez...

Walker is a role player and I don't know if he'd be a starter here. I mean he was a backup/spot starter for the 49ers. Personally I would go after a guy like Dustin Keller as an UFA as he offers up some things that Chandler doesn't offer and might be affordable since coming off injury. Another guy that might be available is Jermichael Finley who I've been talking about since last offseason. If there was a position of strength in UFA it is TE and would be happy adding either Keller, Finley, Bennett, Davis, Cook. I'd also consider Ben Watson as a one or two year option.

At no point during this ramble did I understand one thing you're saying.

Unfortunately, he decided to force the ball to he smaller, less experienced Dorin Dickenson when Chandler got hurt, rather than, you know, adjust the plan mid-game. And that's one of many reasons why he's now unemployed.
But I digress- chandler may not make it back for the start of the 2013 season.

It's not just you.
Re: Nix: Add TE to the list
Winslow is an intreguing option.. the guy is definately physically gifted
Re: Nix: Add TE to the list
IMO, Nelson going down allowed teams to cover Chandler which hurt his nos. He's not very athletic but he's been a good target in the endzone. Not that what he did in the past matters now that there's a new HC/OC.
Re: Nix: Add TE to the list
The kid from Cincinatti or U of Florida in the 3rd or 4th... or both in this rounds.
Re: Nix: Add TE to the list
looking at our needs , which positions in this years draft are considered deep which allows the bills to wait in the later rounds to draft at that position?
from what people are saying DL , lber and wr are deep in this years draft.
