David Nelson looks like a lock for the Bills roster

by silverstreak3k on Aug 30, 2010 5:23 PM EDT

I thought I would share this with the group. He has really impressed during the camps/OTA's and preseason. Right now I believe he is penciled in as the number 4 WR on the Bills. This just makes me think that it wasn't necessarily the WR's that were the problem in the passing game last season, but perhaps Tebow (and the coaching staff directing him) not getting beyond that 1st or 2nd read before running for it. Buffalo Rumblings had a good article on it at their website too if anyone is interested. Nelson has caught two TD passes so far in the preseason....not bad for a undrafted rookie free agent.

I knew Nelson was playing well in Buffalo, but he is playing a lot better than I thought.

Thanks for the link and story. Good luck to David.

Rooting for Nelson....

but he’s going to have similar problems with Edwards.

Edwards is an okay QB. Not really ever going to be great…but he isn’t going to just plain terrible either.

Edwards is in make or break year

If he doesn’t do it this year, he’s toast and there will be new blood in the QB position. So not really a bad problem seeing as he will be a bit buried in the depth chart to really make waves this year.

Also Chad Jackson is getting his second (possibly last) shot with the bills, and so far looks like he will make the team too.

While we're talking about ex Gator WRs

Gaffney could end up being the #1 in Denver.

That isn’t saying a whole lot about Denver’s WR’s though.

true

and it may hurt him as he’s never faced top NFL corners before!

Yeah, I’ve always wondered about him facing the elite guys and how he would handle it. I guess we shall see. He didn’t do much in college against hacks and that doesn’t look too good.

he had a fine college career

1184, 14 TDs and then 1191, 13 TDs his final 2 seasons with the Gators. That’s nothing to sneeze at. Plus he recovered from being kicked off the team (remember the locker room jewel thief??) by returning as a walk-on and earning his scholly back. I wish him well.
