Not even any rumors? Any sightings of O J Howard in the Cincinnati area? The last report was from Rapoport (wow, does his name work with report), who said Howard "was still in the building" in Cincinnati. That was yesterday some hours after the Asaisa claim.

I dont disagree, but OJ has always been a bad route runner and according to Bills insiders he was very slow, on top of that he couldnt grasp the playbook. Not sure how these issues evolve into a playmaker? If we sign him I hope he works out these issues.

If he can help in the red zone that’s huge by itself. And I did see him hook up with Allen for a red zone TD in the preseason.

True, I saw that TD as well.

Both are valuable, and I think it depends on the scheme that's being ran.
Personally, I prefer a TE who is a receiving threat.
In a perfect world you would have a TE that can do it all.
We will probably have to draft ours if we want the special do it all TE that can block and be a receiving threat.
Too bad Michael Mayer will be long gone by our 32nd pick.

Yeah like that. Super close

That was just a great play by Myles Jack.

What I like about OJ is he has two separate feet. Sample has two lefts and a club-foot.

I guess if Joey Franchise didn’t take him out to dinner it wasn’t happening.

Thanks, Pally. Not the news I've been looking for, but he probably had a lot of suitors.

Too bad, honestly I like what I saw of Thad Moss this preseason and in college more than what I saw of Asiasi in his
short highlight vid. Glad we at least got him on the Practice Squad, never thought I would say this about Thaddeus.
He did well in Preseason though.

If you’re an UDFA playing TE because the first two guys are hurt, that’s understandable. Second round pick needs to make the catch. If I remember correctly it’s not like it was broken up while he was trying to make the catch. He already had possession

I remembered it being nearly impossible to make the catch it was so great of coverage by Jack and he did knock the ball out.
Could be wrong though, it has been a spell.

Not impressed with this Asiasi even though the Patriots wanted him back.
Dosent seem likely now. I can’t be mad, I have no idea who this other guy is. Guess I’ll do some homework.
How you been man? Hope everything is going well. I’m not on here as much as I use too. I try to stay away during pre season, can’t stand seeing players injured and out for the year in pre season. Anyway stay safe man, you’ve always been pretty cool with me on here. Who-Dey

Sample got straight bullied on that play. I was totally done with him after that...
