Shorttynaz Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Just curious how many people gladly passed on this guy in your draft, and how many people were (like me) expecting some sort of production/value from taking him in the 4th/5th round. I'm trying to stick with this guy and give him a chance to fit in up there in Buffalo. But I think this is the last week I will hang with him. When I drafted him I wasn't expecting the TO of a couple years ago - but I thought I could seriously get SOMETHING out of this guy. Sure enough - next week I'll bench him and that'll be his break out game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip_Side Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 He was one of my top players to avoid this year. I however chose to take LT with my 1st round pick... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke davenport Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Perhaps the only worse underachiever this year is his teammate Lee Evans. This a Dick Jauron coached team. Expect mediocrity to modest production at best. There may be the occasional solid game, but I wouldn't plan my lineup around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorttynaz Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 There's a 39 yrd reception by TO.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhoops Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I took him in the late 4th/ early 5th (can't remember). I didn't have a good feeling when I did. I think I've had him 3 out of the last 4 years. I thought he'd get me something last week, I was wrong. I also left DeSean Jackson and his 20+ pnts on my bench. This week I gladly benched him for S.Smith (NYG). He'll stay on the bench unless he starts doing something and I can trade him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 own him in one league...got him around that time. He's got pine now for Steve Smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorttynaz Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Luckily my other 2 WR's are Wayne and S Smith (NYG). But I also have had Housh on my bench these past couple weeks. He had a pretty good game today - however I was kind of expecting it as they were gonna be playing catch up most of the day. Still, I thought - this is TO and he's gonna start barking and creating a mess up there if he doesn't start getting more involved - so I took a chance. We'll see how it pans out. Halfway through the 2nd quarter and he's got 2 for 43. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorttynaz Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Maybe now we see if he's really in the game plan(s) or not. Midway through the 3rd quarter and the Bills are down by 21. Gonna have to pass to get back into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Muto Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I have a friend I was talking to and I told him he needs to sit TO and start playing Steve Smith of the NYG and he told me to shut my mouth never to tell him to sit his favorite player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorttynaz Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Ugh.. Buffalo sucks.. Edwards targeted Owens, but Owens was beat to the ball by the DB and Edwards just threw his 2nd INT today.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Perhaps the only worse underachiever this year is his teammate Lee Evans. Well, Lee Evans is Lee Evans - tends to truck along mildly disappointing and then just EXPLODE 2-3 times a year. I think if he were on a team with better QBs and offensive philosophy he could be a monster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midway through NEARING THE END of the 3rd quarter and the Bills are down by 21 28. Gonna have to pass to get back into it. Corrected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorttynaz Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Lee Evans lives! A couple of nice receptions on that drive by Evans. Forgot about Josh Reed who caught the TD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 You betcha I tempered my expectations ... his QB is Trent Edwards. I knew I would not draft him because he would be over valued and would be drafted before I would be willing to do so. I wonder what TO thought he was getting into and if he is beginning to regret the fact that his overly large ego has landed him in this spot.

Shorttynaz Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 As an Owens owner, this bad offense of Buffalo is painful (and frustrating) to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
