Gray Beard Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 The fact that other teams are picking up players that the Bills have cut is an indication that the overall talent level of the Bills is pretty good. At least that is my attempt to see things on the bright side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuntheDamnBall Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I liked Heard, but he wasn't irreplaceable. They obviously think Carrington and Moore have higher ceilings, so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on depth guys. More bummed about losing Dwan Edwards than Heard, who was hurt, anyway. The fact that other teams are picking up players that the Bills have cut is an indication that the overall talent level of the Bills is pretty good. At least that is my attempt to see things on the bright side. And ^ this, too. Good point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 We are a paying a price, however small, for keeping 4 QB's and 3 kickers Not quite sure how you see that. Heard was more of a 3-4 DT type. The Bills made a decision that Carrington had more upside for the 4-3 role, seems to me. Heard has been injured all camp and hasn't shown too much; I think Edwards may be a cap casualty, and he's the loss I regret more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Heard was a middling DT, not much better or worse than what we already had on the roster. I think S.Johnson is pretty good depth behind Williams and Dareus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the worst defenses in NFL history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffalothruMyVeins Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Heard was on last years defense. One of the worst defenses in NFL history. That settles it. Cut Kyle Williams, Marcel Darius, Nick Barnett, Jairus Byrd, George Wilson, Leodis McKelvin and Terrence Mcgee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjmac Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Isn't Johnson in the last year of his contract? If so, I hopeTroup recovers for next season and he can step into his spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be ok with 2 or 3 of those guys gone. Say what you will but the stats bear it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
