Yeah now somewhat in the cross hairs of Dorien

Who are the three? Heard Lacy and Ray Ray and?? Like minds think alike

Well from the sounds of peoples expectations, there's no way these guys will ever clear waivers. Likely the Pats will be all over them as they are ticket to the Super Bowl. If they do clear, then yes will be interesting to see if the Bills sign them

To quote a poster the other day prior to cut down day "People here over value our marginal players"

Will be interesting to see how many Bills training camp players do they actually sign compared to outside players. Also interesting to see how quickly Duke and Eddie Y get signed elsewhere.

If I were them, I'd trade one of their 2020 1st rounders for a 3rd 2021 to make sure they could move up all the way to #1 if needed. Think Lawrence is a much more sure thing that Tua. Assuming Allen improves could bring back memories of the Kelly Marino days

Kind of glad Miami has all this draft capital for 2020 as taking Tua I think is a gamble. I think the solid choice is 2021 with Lawrence. If I were Miami, I'd try and trade one of the extra 2020 1st rounders to another team for their 2021 1st. That would give them 3 1st rounders in 2021?? That is a risk though as that means their coaching staff would be playing into their 3rd season before Lawrence ever takes the field. Assuming it takes him at least one season to become very good, would this staff ever be their to see it happen?

Agree! The only way a guy like Jackson (or whatever QB may be on the PS) would play on Sunday is if on a road game Allen fell down the stairs getting off the plane and landed on Barkley and they are now both out 24 hours before the game. Or even if one were hurt, he'd get promoted to active 53 and be the backup for Sunday, but on Monday, they'd be looking to sign a new experienced guy and would then cut Jackson (or other) and maybe hope they can re-sign him to PS again. On another note, I don't believe and undrafted rookies made the roster this season correct?

Very true! Thought maybe they would have kept Yarbourgh and who knows what will happen if he's not signed, does he end up back here or even if signed elsewhere all of a sudden a team loses to LB's so they need to sign someone and the extra DE, Yarbourgh gets released and we re-sign him down the road. As far to as his performance against the Vikes, yes he did stand out, but with and against probably over 50% of the players who like him are now out of a job

The one part I don't understand is why not just keep Coleman and cut Dean? There are rumors the Bills plan to sign Mutterlan after game 1 to avoid paying the full year salary I get that concept, but in this case if they are signing Coleman back on Monday nothing gained there so why not just keep him? Are they that much afraid that another team will sign Marlowe but by Monday the interest will have died down? If that were the case with the rumors already out there I'd just hold one extra slot on my PS open until the Bills do release him.

Well that's total BS so who knows if anything else stated is true? Johnson played decent and left the field with the team ahead. Flutie did not have a good season that year at all, they won in spite of him, not becasue of him. The first year he was here and started, he played great. But after about 10 to 12 games defenses figured him out and the 2nd year, he was OK, but nothing special. I'll grant you he was very good at one thing, deflecting blame. When ever he was questioned about anything in post game press conference about his performance, he'd turn the question around to something else. Great way to push the blame elsewhere without ever being accused of pointing fingers.

Damm, When I look at that list of players, as recently as two years ago, there were a number I would have killed to have got on my fantasy team. How quickly the mighty have fallen!

Heard he got kicked in the ding ***** Damm can't believe that's another bad word.

So how exactly does the whole waiver thing work? If I remember correctly, vets with more than is it 3 years in the league who are cut today are immediate free agents, less than 3 years you go through waivers. Does it also mean the 2nd a team makes a waiver claim, they need to release someone to stay at 53? So say the Giants who are above the Bills in the waiver order can't claim a punter who was released, try him out, then decide to cut their present one or release the one they just claimed? They'd likely as soon as they make the claim, release their current punter or someone else on the roster?

Well if McCoy said it, must be true, case closed.

Kind of glad we didn't get Clowney as Carroll is kind of a snake players coach, reminds me somewhat of Rex except he actually has won. So did Clowney want to go to Seattle because he knows it's Club Med out there? I also do think while Carroll did win, he's on a downward fall last couple of years and will be very happy to see it continue.

Maybe he's just not all that good! He's a guy who got cut three years ago and couldn't make an NFL roster since. You can easily make the argument they should have kept him instead of McKenzie, or many will even say Zay, but the problem is you're really comparing a car with a dent on the left side against one on the right side, none are great. While overall I do feel our receiving group is much improved since last year, even our #1 guy I guess it's John Brown is maybe ranked in the mid 20's compared to other teams. Point is our WR top to bottom still aren't great, that's an area likely next year will work on improving, so no need to keep someone here who's not really that good to in turn cut another lineman or LB instead. You want the best 53 overall. It does appear that the legend of Kiko has been surpassed by the legend of Duke! At least Kiko did play a year. And he did save 10 people from falling over Niagara Falls.

But that can work both ways in that other teammates see this guy isn't producing, why is he still here? Like the jokes about Vlad having bad pics of Beane so he kept his job. It's no different that most work environments. "Hey boss I heard there may be a layoff?" "Nope no truth to that rumor" Next day, layoffs announced. My point being players get it. And also maybe he wasn't the locker room leader that he tended to be made out to be.

I'd say yes as that looks alot like Andrew Luck!

You lost me when you stated we had this in Sammy!! And Woods was a FA, could go wherever he wanted. Rumors were he wanted to go to a west coast team so he did.

I think that's just someone trying to connect the dots without any real knowledge. Does it make sense, yes, could it happen, agai nyes. But their plan is risky as he may sign with another team prior to week 1 too.

She is until he gets cut. Who'd want to date some unemployed loser!

Yes, though I thought they would have traded McCoy rather than cut him. But as many pointed out the contract prevented that. I wasn't very impressed with what he'd done this spring/summer and made a ton of money. And they drafted Devin.

When I look at this list, the one that surprises me the most is the Captain!

As someone else stated yesterday. "Folks on this site tend to way overvalue marginal players" i.e. Duke Williams, Eddie Yarbourgh, etc.
