please stop the pain Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 If someone had told me prior to the start of the season that Trent would be given a chance to prove himself; then cut after 3 wks I would have denied the likelihood. Now that it has happened and another former starter has also been waived, I have begun to wonder what is next. I cannot recall another team that has used a season to evaluate players and make a lot of cuts. Is the next step to begin trolling other teams practice squads for 'diamonds' and give them an in-season tryout? If you are going to have a losing season already, this approach could have some benefits. This could be a novel approach to rebuilding with many possible negatives (chaos), but with so many needs to be filled could this give the Bills a jump-start on the process. Purely speculation of course. Who would be cut next to give someone new a tryout? Maybin perhaps? Don't like your kick returner, 3rd string reciever or linebacker? Cut them and give some practice squad guy the chance to make an impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amstel Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Green may get benched but not cut because they'd be on the hook to pay his entire salary for this year if they cut him.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalonian-at-Heart Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Something has to happen to make room for Nelson when he comes back from being suspended. I guess it will be David Martin, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estro Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Pay Moran reported yesterday that jarmon Meredith is likely to be cut this week Is this true, I hadn't heard this? Too bad if true, I had hopes Meredith could develop into a serviceable swing tackle who could've provided adequate depth at worst. He did very little to impress in his spot duty vs. the Dolphins though. I think he could get a shot at RT (With a QB who's not a sitting duck - Trent Edwards) before he's released though.

Good point. Perhaps Ralph would be willing to suck this up with a lesser salary. Would this count against the cap if indeed there is a cap next year?
