ABearWithFurniture Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Any Buffalo insiders/fans seeing anything with him in training camp? The way they like to run the ball I see lot's of touches for him. However, I also think the Bills totally wasted Spiller's skill set and under utilized him, even though he was injured quite a bit. Just not too sure what to think of Lesean now that he's with the Bills...that defense should give him lot's of chances, but will the coaches play to his skills?

tazinib1 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I LOVE Shady in Buff. 25 carries per game is not out of the question. Add in the receptions and he's a top 5 RB IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA Baracus Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I think game script is going to be working against him in a lot of games, but his receiving ability will protect him somewhat from that. On the whole, I think it is a slight downgrade in situation for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stethant Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 He just didn't look right in so many games last year - I don't recall hearing about any injury. I know that Rex Ryan offenses run and run but they have NO viable QB option in Buffalo. The defense helps but I'm not sure how long they'll hold up with such an inept offense.

Dolphin_Akie Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Volume will be there, if he stays healthy I imagine McCoy will lead the league in carries. The concern is that O-line because Richie Incognito is pegged as the starter at Guard and he hasn't played since November 2013 before Bullygate. If that wasn't bad enough he was crap that season for the Phins as well. 20 carries per game wont be that valuable if he's getting hammered in the backfield and churning out 3ypc but I imagine Rex will find a way to make it work with Greg Roman.

I hear this but look at Rex's running games with the Jets over the last several years. They had a run-friendly offense and almost obscenely easy running schedules year after year and turned in......nothing fantasy-wise. I'll concede the backs in NY weren't great but the situation in Buffalo is less than ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats true and you'd imagine teams will be pushing eight men into the box and daring whomever is at QB to go deep. The only difference with the Jets is that McCoy will get over 300 carries if he's healthy whereas Rex tended to share them round more in New York.

tazinib1 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I'm hoping Tyrod Taylor wins the QB job. A mobile QB will help and should increase his receptions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
