Is Brandon McManus still good?

Trujillo gone. I wonder if they bring in competition for Bass.

Dude makes plays in a rotational role. Exactly want you want. Great motor. Some rush talent and good against the run.

Seems like the kind of work around the NFL should try to shut down. It’s kind of a weird look but I get it. It’s not like the hiring team is losing picks.

This was an excellent episode. Really good breakdown and some cool insights from Groot

Interesting to see where this goes. Obviously it’s a long shot, but at the end of the day Burton needs to beat out Sherfield and Hardman, and to me that is very doable….assuming Shavers is PUPed. If his head is on straight, Burton is so much better than those guys. The special teams piece will be a big part of it, but Burton has a shot.

Hate to see Gray go if he does, but this type of stuff is the sign of a healthy franchise, that people are plucking your people. It’s a good thing. The picks are a nice bonus. If the Bills win the Super Bowl, Jim Leonhard is probably gonna get a head job. It is what it is, and just good stuff.

I’d say Shaq or Bobby Okereke

I think they really like Jenkins and he has flashed when he played. He looked very good in pre-season. I think he is higher on the depth chart than Carlo. Jenkins needs to put on like 20lbs of muscle. Flaker is interesting but I think Jenkins is LB 5 right now, with a chance to make the roster if they don’t add anyone and keep 5.

Not that it matters but he was talked about a lot.

What’s wrong with Bobby Okereke? Like did his play fall off that badly that no one is interested? 29 going on 30 so he’s not like totally over the hill.

I think Corbett is so far away better than Anderson on multiple levels. Experience, athleticism, etc. Corbett’s floor is what you hope Anderson develops into. So I think, if Corbett is healthy, it’s his job to lose. If not healthy, I think it comes down to Anderson/Bowry. I still think Nick Broeker is interesting depth as well. Obviously they like Anderson, and I do too. I just don’t think he is an NFL starting caliber player who will be able to sustain for the grind of the season. He’s the perfect 6th man. But happy to be wrong.

Definitely a good way to save money

He’s a fullback turned linebacker turned fullback. Super athletic special teams value. Coming off a pretty serious injury.

I mean, maybe I’m wrong, but if Brady knows this kid well and wants to give him a shot, I don’t see what the problem is. We don’t know anything. We are just fans. And if Brady believes in the guy, sure we can question it, but there is no risk here. I suppose the only risk is he does everything right for the next six months, earns a roster spot and then goes AWOL again and you lose whoever you cut to keep him, like a Slay/Ingram situation, which would be the worst case scenario. That’s really the only risk. He isn’t going to destroy the locker room or team camaraderie or any of that. But I don’t think this tryout comes with risk. JMO.
