I'm all for Rhodes coming in. Though I wonder who would get released looking at the roster right now? Baylon Spector? Brandin Bryant if either Ed Oliver and/or Jordan Phillips is ready to come back?

Why? We have zero injuries at Defensive End. And why would we want to remove him from a starting position when he wouldn't start over Von Miller or Greg Rousseau? It's way past time for people to let go of Jerry Hughes.

Less than a week ago today there was legitimate concern that Dane Jackson would never walk again. Now we're at a point where we're saying "enough is enough"? Geesh... Tre cannot even begin practicing with the team until next week at the earliest. With the bye week coming up after that, I'd be shocked if they rushed him on the field Week 5. They're way more likely to start working him in to Practice for Week 5, give him the Bye, and then have him return Week 7.

I got news for you - ANY team that goes into the game minus their Center who's one of their top Lineman than loses their RT to heat illness, their backup Center to injury, and their RG to a head injury is going to be in a bad spot. The Line was very good the first two games and it's not like we have a bad Offensive Line with a Pro Bowl LT, a Pro Bowl LG, and one of the top Center's in Football. Your argument is moot today.

You were saying?

Ed Oliver and Dane Jackson. No Micah Hyde, Jordan Poyer, and Dane Jackson and 2/4, quite possibly 3/4 of our Interior DL (since Settle didn't get a full practice in all week) is a LOT to overcome. And I hope I'm wrong, but the activation of Greg Mancz seems to allude to me that Mitch Morse is probably out as well. Hope there isn't any others.

That's assuming Settle is playing. Considering he never got a Full Practice in the whole week, he could very easily be out as well.

Good for him. We've got Devin Singletary, Zack Moss, James Cook, and Duke Johnson. We're more than set at RB. Willing to bet if there were an injury to one of the top 3 RB's, they'd have called up Duke Johnson first anyways.

😆

You cannot tell me that this is anything but a troll post and/or that you're not someone who just enjoys being a contrarion.

Yeah, no, just play Crowder more.

They aren't going to worry about Edmunds replacement until they have to replace him, if they do. And as for Martinez, he was reportedly released for not getting along with the new Giants regime. That new Giants regime being Beane's former right hand man Joe Schoen who he is still very close to and Brian Daboll. If there were issues behind the scenes, Beane is aware of them and if he was an issue to Schoen, I doubt Beane would want to take him on or be the one to offer him a life raft.

The use of past tense in "hosted" instead of "are hosting" is interesting. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but to me it implies he left without a contract. Wonder if Kern is just playing hardball in negotiations and they're still keeping their options open. Because it would appear to me that if Kern is out, Martin is a no-brainer.

1. Marquez Stevenson (or maybe Baylon Spector) 2. Cam Lewis 3. Bobby Hart or Greg Van Roten

Everyone's assuming he had multiple options of Practice Squads. It's quite possible he didn't. Or that the options he had were on much lesser teams or WR cores that were less likely for him to get playing time if someone were to go down.

But wait - I thought there was "no way" we'd be able to get Isaiah Hodgins and Raheem Blackshear on the Practice Squad? 😆

He reminds me of Robert Woods and not just because he wears #10.

Yes. Let's cut not one but two of our core Special Teams players for two guys who can't play Special Teams or even will be active on Game Day for their positions. 🙄

Not really. 7th Round Picks are a long shot to make any solid roster.

Not like it's the first time we cut him. He needed to prove he could play Special Teams adequately if he were to make the 53 under Diggs, Davis, McKenzie, Crowder, and Shakir. He couldn't do that.

No, I don't think I am. They could have easily just said nothing and addressed the release after practice. They specifically told the media that they should let it be known he is still a member of the team. Also...

Yes, but they also told the media that they should let it be known he is still on the roster as of practice. Would seem odd that they'd tell them to say he's still a member of the team and then an hour later say he's not a member of the team.

So they specifically told Media to let it be known that he is still on the roster as of the start of practice. Would they tell them to say that just to say he was off the roster after practice?

Originally, practice was going to be at 3 and McDermott was going to speak before Practice. Then they said Practice was going to be moved to 4 bc they got in late and McDermott would still speak before Practice. Then they said Practice would be at 4, but McDermott would now speak post Practice. I think this speaks volumes that they're trying to get all their ducks in a row before McDermott speaks again. Which is sad because he should just be focusing on Practice and Beane should be speaking.

He wants the Bills to release Araiza and is putting pressure on them to do so because the Bills doing that would presume his guilt and assist his case. As I mentioned in an earlier post, doing so would also open them up to a Civil Case from Araiza's attorney's for hindering his case if he were to be found guilty. While I understand the sentiment behind fans saying "cut him now", it's not that simple. Atm I think their only recourse would be to place him on a Team Leave Suspension until the case has settled itself and then go from there.
