    Stlll lots of cuts to be made.  The timing of these is interesting...perhaps hoping to "bury" some releases among the noise to sneak guys on the practice squad?

    Perhaps they are looking to trade McLaughlin. It's a shame we have to let him go. He was good in college & he has looked good here.

    As a shorter defensive tackle, it’s not surprising that he Has put his hands in that position. The technique is to keep hands high on the chest but as you do so coming from a lower position, your hands can often slip up off the jersey and hit the face. That being said, he definitely has to improve upon that.

    They only call it if you keep your hands in the face. He has to release.

    Pretty much this. If this IS true and he can be picked up by another team through waivers, he would have to be on their 53 and that just doesn’t seem like it’s happening. PS, sure, I bet a dozen or so teams would want him on their PS but that cannot happen. IF the rule is true and he can only sign with another team or he’s on our PS I expect him to be on our PS. Maybe, just maybe, there’s a team out there with a RB... OR Holdout... that would want to sign him. 

     

    Dallas

    LA

    or anyone else that gets an injury late in preseason. 

    No Kroft?

     

    Smith ain’t making this roster. Period. 

    Smith has $4m guaranteed.

    The last time this happened to me, it went like this............ "Hey, I want the new DirecTv customer package because I only have NFL Sunday Ticket and nothing else....so I never had a DirecTv package".  No PIZ (in a foreign accent) you cannot get any special offers because you are considered a DirecTv customer, even though you never had a DirecTv package.  "I guess DirecTv doesn't care about adding another customer to their packages, then?".  Sir Mr. PIZ, would you like to cancel?  "Yes, cancel my subscription".  Done.

    ............................ 1 month later........... in the mail.......  A letter from DirecTv saying "We want you back.  Here is this amazing deal.  Free HBO / Showtime / Cinemax for 1 year.  Free NFL Sunday Ticket".

     

    Hoping that happens again.

    When you cancelled, did you have to return the DVR's etc, etc.

    It would be nice if I could just keep the equipment & reuse it a month later.

    I agree with this very good observation.  I was there at the game and was privy to seeing the FG attempt he missed from a side view.  His ball no longer penetrates.  It's like he's punching at the ball instead of kicking through it.  His leg looks weak at this point.  

    Yeah. Kinda like my golf swing.

    Zay certainly isn’t a “top player.” He was horrendous as a rookie. He graded out as the lowest graded receiver in football. He bounced back last year and was okay. Was he effective last year because the other WRs were so bad or is he now a decent NFL receiver? 

     

    He also doesn’t have any differentiating skills. He has terrible hands. Zay is no more than a decent route runner. He doesn’t have great short area quickness nor does he stretch the field. Zay is just okay or worse at every skill (besides levitation). 

     

    If the Bills decide that they need a mix of skill sets he COULD (again not likely) be the odd man out. They could try to trade him for a later round pick (hi Giants) or cut him.

     

    Brown, Beasley and Roberts are locks. Foster and Zay are likely. McKenzie is getting close to likely. Ray-Ray, Duke, Phillips, and even Easley are trying to sneak up. It isn’t crazy to me to think that McKenzie passes Zay on the depth chart (if he hasn’t already). The Bills also may want the big body of Duke because they don’t have any size otherwise. They don’t have someone that can make that play he did yesterday. It’s not impossible to me to see the WR depth chart as Brown, Beasley, Foster, McKenzie, Roberts, and Duke. 

     

     

    Those are the 6 that I picked in a different topic. I think that Sills & perhaps Bolden go to the PS.

    Oh my god... The coaching staff vs. the fans on Zay Jones might be the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. Zay Jones is a top player on this roster and is still on his rookie contract. He will not even be a consideration for cuts... I truly don't understand why fans have it out for him so much. I wonder if it's because fans had unrealistic expectations for him. He was a second-round draft pick, folks, and he hasn't been a disappointment.

    He certainly has. Do you trust him to make an important catch ?

    But if those are Panthers Starters he doesn’t break thru them. 

     

    As Much as I like the story line and am enjoying watching him and hope at the end of 2020 he can land on the 53. I would love to see him start next week and show people to slow down a Bit when he sees non future Insurance Salesmen 

    You're correct. The defenders weren't their starters. But they weren't chopped liver either. They were all probably All Conference college players.

    Peterman is a mistery to me as well.   However, I saw Kaep play the Bills in New Era......and he is no world beater.  Not a starter based on what I saw that day.  We disagree, my point being the performance I saw that day.  (weak arm imho, not a bad as Peterman, but tending toward that end of the performance range)

    I say absoluyely No to Kaep. However, there is no way that he has a weak arm. He has a rifle.

    1.  How can you not love Matt Barkley.   He loves the Mafia, is the perfect back up.  

     

    2.  Do we keep an extra WR?   Not sure who has special teams skills out of the bunch but hard decisions coming up.  Beas, foster brown...then Zay roberts McKenzie and Duke?   Ray-ray?  Phillips?   My opinion is ray-ray is the odd man out. 

     

    3.  Depth - we have built a roster where cuts will get swiped immediately as there is a lot of depth at several positions.   Good job Beane. 

    In my opinion, Easley, Sills, Phillips, Bolden & Ray Ray are gone - a couple of them to the practice squad.

    If it were up to me, Zay would be traded. He just hasn't justified a spot on this roster. Does anyone really trust him to make an important catch.

    Mc Kenzie & Duke would round out the receiver corp.

    BTW, I loved Sills in college. Good size, good speed, good hands, & a nose for the end zone. Is he just not getting open or are the QBs just not targeting him?  I think that he winds up on the PS.

    I did as well, but he did Sitius radio show for a while and he was great..and i grew to like him.

    Man, smoking and driving is a huge concern for me. I have a 20 and 18 yr old so know a little bout the current generation , they never even THINK about having more than 1 drink and getting behind the wheel, their generation is great about that. But smoking and driving they see no problem and i am like WTF????

    For driving a car, a psychedelic high is much worse than having a few beers.

    It was money if you mean on target. Should have been thrown earlier than it was tho. Had it been thrown earlier, Josh wouldn’t have put Zay in a position to get murdered. 

     

    And before you get crazy, just know I’m a huge Allen fan. But that throw was a tad late. 

     

    Still should have have been caught tho. 

    Did you actually watch this play. It was a play action pass where he faked to the RB, stood up and threw it. No hesitation, no scanning the field. Please tell us how he could have thrown it any sooner.

    Not following you here? Zay dropped 2 Thursday night- 1 was right in his hands, the other low but good receivers scoop them up. I wanna like Zay but my confidence in him is fading. Isaah Mckenzie outplayed him. 

    I said the same thing as you.

    I'm losing confidence in the guy.

    Break down every throw- he looked pretty great good. The overthrow to Sweeney was a  timing route, if he wasnt held it was right on the money. The low throw to Zay was on Allen, but still catchable. The throw to Zay at the goal line was a pure drop by Zay. The mis que on the back shoulder out to Brown was on Brown, didnt break it off in time and get the ball. No interceptions, no hand off gaffs. Not a bad night for 11 total starts and the first pre season game with lots of new parts. 

    Explain how he is immature? Do you understand developmental milestones? Seems tp me he is right on track. This post needs to go in the dumpster.

    I haven't seen much about Zay dropping another pass. It's becoming a habit.

    So in spite of a jury decision of "Not Guilty," a lack of evidence of guilt, and several equally plausible potential perps, you have concluded he did it. 

    Sorry Yungmack. Just because the proverbial smoking gun wasn't found in his hand doesn't change all the other evidence that he did the dastardly deed. Anyone who defends garbage, lowers himself. He is garbage.

    with the cost of a retractable roof i would say just a solid roof but not necessarily complete. allow the cold but keep out most of wind.

    How much does it cost to add a roof?

    How much more to make it retractable?

    Will the extra cost pay for itself in an expansion of its usage?

    ...with the rest of the league's "downtrodden owners" holding municipalities hostage for ***** funds, why should they privately fund a stadium?.....perhaps a portion? ....yes.....but if Guido Cuomo is going to doll out public funds, grab what you can because some other municipality will cash in....hell he can us his "Weed Tax".... our clown prince...........

    "Guido", "clown prince" ???

    Isn't obnoxious political banter supposed to be in a different section of TBD ?

    I highly disagree. While he's better suited as a #2 WR, he would be our #1 WR. He's more talented than all of our WRs.

    4.4 speed. Great hands. Great route runner. Good separation. Good YAC.

     

    1,500+ yards and 12 TDs the last two seasons. Played all 16 games both seasons. Still only 25 years old.

    I would definitely like the Bills to look into him.

    Is he available?
