Dodson will definitely start, IMO.

Joel Wilson No 40 (Projected to be in the 4.7 range) but had good 3-Cone and 20 Yard Shuttle numbers. Pass catching TE.

Per text. Considering they traded a 5th to bring him back, it’s a good re-signing. Let him compete with Hamlin for that 4th safety spot.

Is it mandatory?

Didn’t Bills play 3 games in 14 days last year and win all 3?

He has areas to improve, no question, but this wasn’t a like a 14th rated Offense. They were #1 in DVOA, Dorsey build a phenomenal foundation. Allen is a massive part, but they still did good things.

I mean, y’all realize the offense was actually really good last year, right?

6’1” 219

Didn’t Diggs do the same thing?

May mean something, may mean nothing, but last year Bills had 7 LBers in TC, only 4 that were not viewed as special teams only in Edmunds, Milano, Dodson, and Bernard. Mata, Andre Smith, and Spector. This year they have 8, but Milano, Bernard, Klein, Williams and Dodson are all high on the LB depth chart. They still have Spector, Mata, and Howard who are all roster worthy players. I still feel we see more 3 LB sets, they have the players for it.

I like the thread, I just disagree with the list. It just depends what you mean by “break.” Done with the team? Done in the NFL? I actually think Davis and Oliver are more likely to get a 2nd contract with the Bills if they do not reach that next level. They are both solid, as long as the price is right they will be back. Ford and Rapp will play limited snaps, I think their Monday-Saturday performances will impact the odds of a second contract more than their impact on Sundays. If Espenesa copies 2022 and pastes it in 2023 he’ll get an extension. True ‘make or break’ in my eyes are Phillips, Hynes, Poyer, and Hyde for age/cap reasons. For performance reasons I’ll go with Basham and Brown.

Yea I saw other pics haha He’s not in awful shape though. Most OL have a belly.

The best thing about TS is he can step up and produce. This isn’t Jake Kumero. He had 30 catches for 417 yards last year, those are very solid #3 numbers. If Shakir and Hardy can’t cut it in the slot, I’m very comfortable with him. He’s got underrated wheels too. I’m sure that played a huge role in him signing here, he very legitimately could win the slot role this summer and bring an edge to our offense.

TS answered it himself. He wanted to play with an elite QB.

He should be a decent Robin to Garrett’s Batman.

Rookie camp is basically just an eyeball test for fans and I’ll say this: Big Cy doesn’t look like a flabby lineman and Williams looks like an NFL LB.

Ugh. I love it.

Seeing the rookie mini camp pics, he is not a chubby 347.

I work at the Salvation Army, I heard he was in town last week but didn’t know why! Pretty cool!

Carter wasn’t driving the car that crashed, right? Riggs was I believe.

Yes, yes you are.

To start, Williams will replace him by year end.

I think if Bills didn’t feel Bernard or Williams could hold the job down, they would’ve made a move many months ago. Ive heard Simmons is poor vs run and getting off blocks too. Built like a LB but very much a safety.

Bates has way too much value to this team, he will make 4 million this season. Best case he’s the starting RG, worst case he’s the primary backup at LG-C-RG and emergency plan at LT and RT. I feel there is no chance Bills trade him if Big Cy beats him out. When was the last time we could say we had amazing IOL depth? Nah, Dawkins is legit. Brown is the wildcard. This is his first ever healthy pro offseason, so let’s see how he looks. Both also have Center potential. Morse legitimately could be 1 concussion away from being forced to hang it up.

SAM - Bernard and Klein MIKE - Dodson, Spector, Mata (Williams by year end Will - Milano, Williams The last 3 years Johnson has played 77%, 85%, and 92% of the defensive snaps. I can see that number dropping down. Asking him to basically play LB at 192 pounds seems to have caught up with the team. Buffalo has only been a base nickel defense for 2-3 years, basically when AJ Klein was originally signed and really struggled bad in coverage. Team was a base 4-3 in the early years of the McDefense and in Carolina. I think we see a return to the roots this year.
