Don't stop billievein Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 After there were a few balls thrown his way, he started to finally look pretty good. The kickoff return helped too. I know that Easley was playing against the 2nd or even 3rd string players on defense, but still looked solid and BIG out there. Size is something we lack and he has.

BillsZubaz Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I think that you are right. Easley makes the team entirely on potential and skill. To be honest, the WR we would be cutting can be replaced easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockinon Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 What WR can go to the practice squad if Easley makes the cut. BTW Roosevelt looked great returning punts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Roosevelt is not PS eligible, neither Ruvell Martin. Easley is. Aiken may be as well. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsWatch Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 From: http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/boxscore?gid=20120830008 Marcus Easley returned kickoff for 100 yards (2pt attempt converted, Tyler Thigpen pass to Marcus Easley) He really is showing he is deserving final slot - does he have friends on Detroit Defense?

Meathead Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 pssh easley didnt make the team based on this one game. a ko td return against tired scrubs wont help him much either ps squad to start the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyHorseAteTheKid Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Roosevelt does nothing but the right thing.. Great hands.. No mistakes.. Hard to get rid of this kid.. Not saying I don't like Easley, because I do.. But if I had to choose, Roosevelt stays!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 pssh easley didnt make the team based on this one game. a ko td return against tired scrubs wont help him much either ps squad to start the season ^ This. If anything impressed the coaches it was his effort on the two point conversion. But if he hasn't shown much against better competition in camp, it's either the PS or he's cut. GO BILLS!!!

beerme1 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Thought I heard he would have to clear waivers if we sent him to the PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying I don't like Easley, because I do.. But if I had to choose, Roosevelt stays!! No one in this team even has good hands. Chandler may have the best and his are average. This is likely the most drop prone team in the league. Look at Haggans drop today. We don't even consider that a drop because by the standard that has been set it was an impossible catch.

NoSaint Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Thought I heard he would have to clear waivers if we sent him to the PS. I think our WRs are low on the watch list for claims. We aren't even high on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rstencel Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I would be surprised if noone picks Easley up honestly. He looked good when offense was simpler, and in OTA's, but when they put in the full offense he started to struggle with making same reads a QB. Think he need more reps, and has more potential than the others on bubble. Would not be surprised if he doesnt make team, but would be surprised if he there to be put on practice squad if doesnt make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth on hold Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 pssh easley didnt make the team based on this one game. a ko td return against tired scrubs wont help him much either ps squad to start the season At his size and potential though I see him getting picked off by another team from our PS. If you want him gotta keep on the 53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO this kid shouldn't even be a bubble player on making the team. There will be some better players out there tomorrow night with better credentials than a player who has never touched a ball in regular season. And, really had a terrible camp. The team is dreadfully thin at the receiver position for a coach who relies on a spread offense. What's up with that for the start of year 3?

If you want him gotta keep on the 53 If you watch around the league I think you'd be surprised by the number of big fast guys that get less of a shot than he has. He's a midrounder that hasn't played in two years. Unless he has tight connections with someone or really blew someone away before his draft.... There's a decent chance he passes waivers for sheer lack of film in the last two years. Out of sight out of mind is a real thing. He may get picked up, he may not... A lot of teams prefer their own bubble guys that already know the playbook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of teams prefer their own bubble guys that already know the playbook Hasn't played because of injury (and illness). This isn't keeping Aaron Maybin around despite not even being able to make the active roster on game-day...Easley's spent most of his career on IR. Still...while I root for him based on sympathy, and would like to see him on the practice squad, I'm having a hard time justifying a place for him on the 53-man roster over some of the other players. And I think someone else would pick him up off waivers...there's got to be a few teams thinner at WR than the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree to a point, although Chandler is just a bit above average and, FJ is right behind Chandler. So the team is not entirely devoid of good hands IMO.
