I\u2019ve been going through film on Buffalo Bills unrestricted free agents and there\u2019s been a pretty clear refrain so far. \u201cKeep if the price is right.\u201d That\u2019s not a weird outcome, for the record. Players with such high value that it\u2019s an easy decision would have had contracts negotiated, and therefore not show up in a free-agent article.<\/p>\n
For what I do, there\u2019s not much value in reviewing players where the consensus is that there\u2019s no harm in letting them go. So naturally this series lends itself to that middle ground. We take a quick detour for this edition though by \u201creviewing\u201d fullback Reggie Gilliam.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m no contract guru, but you don\u2019t need to be to know that Gilliam landing back in Buffalo won\u2019t break the bank with a fair deal. His high value on special teams (over 76% of snaps) and the running game make this an easy decision. Let\u2019s watch some film anyway.<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t even wait for the conclusion section so my opinion will be no surprise. Reggie Gilliam has a ton of value in this offense in the fullback role, and I don\u2019t see any reason to rock the boat for the position. Gilliam is a solid back for blocking, shoving Josh Allen by the backside, and his 100% catch rate this past season (and two others) ain\u2019t bad. Sure it comes on low target numbers, but Gilliam poses enough real threat as a receiver where decoy snaps have real value. Bring him back!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I\u2019ve been going through film on Buffalo Bills unrestricted free agents and there\u2019s been a pretty clear refrain…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":770662,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2048],"tags":[215,214,53,85590,1622,2086,7,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-770661","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-buffalo-bills","8":"tag-bills","9":"tag-buffalo","10":"tag-buffalo-bills","11":"tag-buffalo-bills-analysis","12":"tag-buffalo-bills-opinion","13":"tag-buffalobills","14":"tag-football","15":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116118828329424833","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/770661","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=770661"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/770661\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/770662"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=770661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=770661"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=770661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
