Wizard

Agree that it is surprising Williams has not signed with another team. Personally, I would prefer Williams as a tackle/guard backup/spot starter than Hart or Von Roten for his starting experience with the Bills, versatility, and the unwritten law which includes that our team NEEDS a "Williams" on this roster for luck and for posterity's sake.

There is always a player or two that we wonder, "why is that guy on the roster?" Who is that guy for you? There are several for me, but that one guy is Tommy Sweeney.

We all have our favorite 2-3 guys that we want on the 53 man roster. For me, Matt Barkley is one of those guys. I get it. He's the 3rd string QB on most predictions. He likely would be inactive each week, but he can still fill-in I just think what he adds to the QB room, his knowledge of the offense, and his willingness to try to fill a hole in a pich is valuable. So, who do I cut? I would cut whomever is the 5th or 6th special teams guy or that 9th or 7th guy at a position.

I think Settle's contributions will be felt in those 3rd and 4th quarters of games when a defensive stop is our best offense. Rotating Phillips, Jones, Settle, and Oliver will be a boon to our DE's ability to make opposing QB's uncomfortable.

These depth charts are fun top look at, but much like a mock draft, I don't take much stock in them until the the first two games are in the books.

Until Tre White is on the field making plays again, and we have Elam and Jackson as the projected starting corners, I can't see the harm of bringing Waynes, Haden, Harris, Rhodes, or Sherman in. Their experience and understanding of the position, schemes, and other player tendencies alone is worth shuffling a few dollars to one of them and bring that vet presence alongside Hyde and Poyer. I know that Haden has been reported as an interest to some current Bills. Has Beane brought any of these guys in for a visit?

Considering the contracts of Cousins, Watson, Murray, and then the very likely extensions to Jackson, Burrow, and Herbert, the Bills got a solid deal!! Let's be honest though, they all are making ridiculous cash.

It's a solid landing spot and business decision by Julio to rebuild any value and compete in the NFC. I hope he has a bounceback year personally and then have his team get bounced early in the playoffs.

4 League-Wide 1. Broncos win AFC West 2. Ceedee Lamb leads WR's in TD 3. Baker Mayfield plays well enough that he is given a multi-year extension with Carolina 4. Desmond Ridder is the starting QB for Atlanta after week 6. 4 Bills 1. Josh Allen is worthy of but does not make 1st or 2nd team all pro because the Bills running game takes a big leap. 2. Roger Saffold makes the pro bowl because of how much the offensive line improves the run game. 3. Bass-o-matic joins the 60 yard field goal club setting a new Bills field goal record. 4. Jamison Crowder catches the go ahead touchdown of SuperBowl MVP, Josh Allen, as the Bills win 30-21 over the Cowboys much to the media coverage's delight of interviews and shots of meltdowns by Jerry Jones in the press box.

I'd pick Kyle Williams because he was a solid player and by all accounts a hardworking and down-to-earth guy. I'd pick Allen for the same reasons as my current player. I'd pick Will Ferrell for his stories and playful craziness or Robert Downey Jr because of his interesting rollercoaster career and experiences. I would be doing my son a solid as well as a result of his Marvel Fandom.

I have always seen myself as a safety. I'm worth millions, but I don't have to tell everyone that. Lately, I feel more and more that I'm a first round talent but I was an undrafted receiver because a few people thought I had a questionable work ethic and character concerns. Sincerely, Ko Da'Rick Simpson Rogers.

I think Roger McCready, CB from Auburn. I believe he will be one of the highest rated CB’s when Bills pick. Why Him? The obvious need for a CB and coaching staff strength in utilizing/maximizing talent in this area He is viewed as a late first/early second talent. Good height, 6’2 and SEC experience against quality WR’s. Publications and websites list his coverage skills and footwork as best traits. Chiefs, Titans, Chargers, Raiders, and Browns all improved WR units.

By all accounts, he was a pro's pro in the media, confident and skilled but not arrogant, and I honestly liked his down to earth style of speaking too. As others have stated, very sad. Madden and Clayton were two different but uniquely talented pioneers at telling the story of football.

Roster Spot Needs (No Order) 1. Veteran Backup QB 2. A Rookie QB (may be on PS) 3. A RB #2 (Moss is RB #3) 4. Big slot WR (early draft pick) 5. 2 OL if Bates goes, vet & rook 6. 1 LB (ST ability and backup) 7. 2 CB's (veteran & early draft pick) 8. Best punter available or FA For me, that is 10 legitimate spots left among free agency, draft, and players who have not had more than a cup of coffee or two on the roster.

Alexander appears to not be resigning with the Vikings. He played against Diggs in practices, a former 2nd round pick, and he has 25 or so career starts and 6 years of experience. I think he and a CB pick within the the first 3 rounds would go nicely with T. Johnson, Jackson, and White's return. Anyone know if this guy would be both a good fit and reasonably priced?

There's our backup QB! J/K

Great reminder. Sign or trade for that one difference-maker who can not be found in our draft slot and for a position that the team can't coach up another player to be. For me, this is a sack artist, a true run stuffing DT, or a guard that keeps Allen upright. WR/TE/RB/CB/LB can be found in this draft. The OL or DL player we need is not in this draft.

Granted, Allen made him look beyond silly, but Allen has done that with a lot of people! With that said, if it is 1-2 years of Van Noy or our polarizing middle linebacker, I would take Van Noy because he also has an ability to get sacks and turnovers.

Between Aaron Rodgers Prima Donna show each year, Lamar Jackson claiming he is disrespected because of Race more than Because he and his team are going backwards as contenders, Mayfield's inconsistent performances and smugness, Kyler Murray thinking he is already hall of fame caliber, Allen has shown this far he is above the garbage and God's gift attitude that seems more openly pervasive in more and more quarterbacks. So glad I hear about Allen's work ethic, his small town roots, and his desire to let his passion and his performances do his talking.

In no particular order: 1. I thought Robert Woods would be not any better after leaving the Bills. 2. I thought Bills should get Noah Fant because he would be a generational-type of TE player 3. I thought the Bills should move on from McDermott even this year. Still, I do believe he is both very overrated and underrated as a coach by fans on TSW. 4. I thought the trade up for Zay Jones was a great move. 5. I believed Peterman would be a solid backup and that John Wendling would be a Steve Tasker-type player because of his freakish athleticism. No doubt many more, but these are among the most egregious.

My first game watching the Bills was in the fall of 1988 against Miami. I became a Bills fan initially for 3 reasons: Born in New York, liked the colors, and the no huddle concept. My childhood favorite players were Thurman Thomas and Steve "a tisker" a Tasker (Chris Berman phrase). 3 Favorite Memories 1. The Greatest Comeback 2. A no punt game in the early 90s against the 49ers 3. Leon Lett getting punked by Beebe My favorite player besides Allen is Levi Wallace. I think Wallace represents the underdog, the hardworking but not uniquely talented, the guy that is maddeningly inconsistent at times, but he gives his very best. I relate to and appreciate that kind of character. My screen name was chosen from the cheesy late 80s/early 90s movie, The Wizard. I watched this at the theatre and got my first Bills starter jacket that same weekend.

Trade, Trade, Trade.

Keep Allen upright, get a difference-making DE, or pay a cloning fee for Aron Donald's DNA, resign Bates, Phillips, Wallace, get a contributing rookie class, and require McDermott to have an in-game coaching situations seminar this offseason, and then this is a real discussion in Feb. 2023.

I think making tweaks to the Wonderlic is a better option than getting rid of it. Maybe a Wonderlic has players go through some X's and O's in a variety of playcalling situations, schemes, etc. And, maybe there are cognitive processing skills and recognizing patterns that can be used that match some ideals for certain position groups. Trymaine Edmund's may be athletic, kind, hardworking, a good teammate,and a nice guy, but his lacks of situational awareness and instincts would and ought to be measured. Call the current Wonderlic culturally biased, rooted in racism, or outdated, okay. But an updated Wonderlic with these or other tweaks is just called gathering good information on a potential hire and good business.

I would be okay with all of these guys gone. Beasley, Williams, and Morse have value. The question is their price and the depth of team and needs. If cutting these players gets us Bates and Phillips and the possibility of resigning McKenzie/Wallace and 1-2 upgrades at any of the following areas: OG/ 3rd WR/2nd RB/2nd CB/Big DT/Upgraded Edge, then sign me up.
