|Numbers| Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 I wondered this same thing the other day when I read he was struggling. If he can't make it in Buffalo, who was desperate for WR's, that's telling. I'd put him on the practice squad, but I don't think you can put him on the roster. After looking at what the Buffalo WR's are getting in preseason, I would say not too many of them are getting significant reps. Only WR that looks to be a lock is Stevie Johnson. ( Maybe Brad Smith and TJ Graham ) I'm not sure many remember but the Bengals sent Urban out to look at Darick ( The Rick ) Roger's pro day. alleycat, on 24 Apr 2013 - 5:52 PM, said: Just to explore a thought (and for shits and giggles) I put together a little Reach Mock Draft. 1) Eric Reid (or Jonathan Cyprien) 2) Gio Bernard 2b) Da'Rick Rogers MichaelWeston, on 25 Apr 2013 - 2:07 PM, said: 1 S Matt Elam-Florida (Also considered Reid and Cyprien but want to go Safety) 2 WLB Arthur Brown-Kansas St (Crossing my fingers he is here.

|Numbers| Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 While not getting much action in preseason games, Rogers is getting plenty of action in practice. http://boards.buffalobills.com/showthread.php?466423-Why-all-the-hate-for-Da-Rick I would say Da'Rick Rogers had an excellent rookie camp, mini camp and training camp, in which he had the following (just from Practice Notes)... 65-yard TD 80-yard TD 80-yard TD 70-yard reception 15-yard diving catch over the middle Redzone TD 60-yard TD 1-handed redzone TD Redzone TD vs. Colts 70-yard TD 49-yard reception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I think if they do indeed cut Rogers, who has all the physical talent in the world, there's gotta be a pretty good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dex Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 What happened with 2nd rou d draft pick Robert Woods? Has he been hurt? I remember that the Bills were the only NFL team other than the Bengals that took offensive skill position players with their first two draft picks.

Doing a brief search it looks like he'll be the #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a couple of games myself and Hayden would say he's a legit # 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrlnutz Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 If they did I would get on board, but with us already keeping a WR that isnt going to play until week 7 I dont see them adding another one who doesn't know the system and wont help this year.

alleycat Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 The karmic appropriate act would be to sign him to a huge offer just to be on the PS, like Tampa Bay did with Dez Briscoe to us a few years back. It's not a good career move for a WR to suddenly switch schemes/teams going into the season (it's like starting over as a rookie the next year almost), but $400K is apt to change a fella's mind.

WR depth is one reason we should grab him. He can be afforded time to sit on the practice squad and be developed properly. He'll provide insurance very cheaply too.

Bengals1181 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 I asked a Bills fan about him. Two things. Slow study was the secondary cause. First was his being a pouty kid. Not enough hustle, and a tendency to go into a funk when things didn't go his way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not enough hustle, and a tendency to go into a funk when things didn't go his way. That bills fan quote sounds a lot like an FA we brought in here last year. If there's any interest in Rogers, I'd think we'd have a pretty good shot of bringing him to the practice squad because of our record at turning people with his issues around (and the PS to roster highway we have here). The only problem is that the PS is going to be loaded with guys who really ARE one step away from being on the roster (rather than just bodies), so the real question, when it comes to Da'Rick Rogers, is who would you like him to replace? And that's a much more difficult proposition, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be some Urban Renewal? And if he were being coached by him, he'd be sub-Urban. Sincerely, Hobs P.S. he's a knucklehead. I'll pass. If getting kicked out of Tennessee and the SEC didn't humble him, not sure he gets it. At least guys like Janoris Jenkins and Tyrann Mathieu seemed to.

At least guys like Janoris Jenkins and Tyrann Mathieu seemed to. Not so sure Tennessee didn't support the behavior that got him into trouble to begin with. Not that a lot of colleges are any different but how many college's are we aware of that instead of signing a contract, they sign a hostesses breasts ? http://www.tauntr.com/content/tennessee-recruits-make-it-official-signing-hostesses%E2%80%99-breasts KNOXVILLE — Top recruits wide receiver Da’Rick Rogers and linebacker Raiques Crump signed with the University of Tennessee today. New head coach Derek Dooley scrambled to get his most sought-after players signed. Dooley said he got an idea from Volunteers men’s basketball coach Bruce Pearl to get his guys to sign. “Rather than signing a traditional document,” said Dooley, “Bruce suggested we have the players sign our hostesses’ breasts.” Dooley chose Volunteers hostess Heather Collins to represent the team at signing. “Alright boys, sign anywhere you want,” said Dooley to the players. The wide-eyed recruits dove in to sign Collins’ rack, the bustiest of all the Tennessee hostesses. “Don’t be shy boys, those titties are D-cups. Use the fat magic marker.” Recruits were then allowed a 30-second motor boat in Collins’ cleavage before donning the bright orange Volunteers cap.
