NoSaint Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It's probably a good idea to keep him on PS for a few weeks just in case EJ goes down. When Orton has been on the team a month they could sign a different QB to groom. I don't think they will but they should. I think Tuel stinks but it's probably prudent to keep him a few weeks. Agreed. Ej goes down week 1 orton would be backed up by another guy off the street? Odds are tuel has some sort of role here short term. With the move though, I wonder if the orton agreement might've been a handshake deal atleast a few days earlier and perhaps some discussion and prepping him for week 1 started before today.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 So we have a gay punter and one coming from San Fran?? Do they plan to be roommates? @RavensInsider Bills signed former 49ers punter Colton Schmidt, according to a source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Lightning Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Makes sense to PS him. Orton's not going to learn the playbook in a week. Stupid to wait this long but at least they finally acted on it. Now it's back to the EJ watch. So we have a gay punter and one coming from San Fran?? Do they plan to be roommates? Really?

Delusional Bills Optimist Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It looks like we've almost trimmed away all of our known dead wood, except for Urbik, Pears (for the money he's making) and Brooks. The Bills have finally purged almost all of the guys to whom this staff has been inexplicably loyal, i.e., Moorman, Graham, Legursky, Tuel, and they at least tried to move on from Pears. If it wasn't for the loss of Kiko and the uncertainty surrounding EJ, IMO we would have a damn fine roster from 1-53. That's a pretty nice two offseason turnaround in my book.

Felonious Monk Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Anyone remember the name of the ex-Bill who surprisingly made the 53-man roster last year, had a huge party, had numerous news stories about his "fight to the top" -- and then got cut the very next day? It was kind of sad because he was so excited in post 4 p.m. interviews, giving all the glory to God and his work ethic, etc. I clearly remember the story over the guy. Thanks in advance.

A Dog Named Kelso Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Hey guys Matthew Coller, this morning, mentions a trade that Whaley made. He say it makes Whaley look pretty good? What is the trade? Coller and Cich actually never mention it and I couldn't find it here.

Nanker Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Maybe take a break from the computer for awhile. Now tell the trouff. Did you lose a bet with JB, or did you willingly take on that avatar. And while I'm at it with personal notes... it's nice to see Kelly the Dog FKA: KTFABD posting here a lot more recently. I think that also brought back The Dean. Positive stuff for the board IMHO. Now if we could work on getting Lori and Cablebabe back. Though I did see Cindy posting in the last day or so. So, ya never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeSpeed Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I've been watching the interior OL (Urbik/Legursky), TE (Gragg/Smith) and developmental QBs(Tuel) that have been cut. Nothing too promising on any fronts IMO until 2 mins ago when I saw the Browns cut Connor Shaw. He's better than Jeff Tuel. Today. I've been pimping Connor Shaw since the draft. Sign him now.

Delusional Bills Optimist Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Right now, both Gay and Schmidt are on the roster as Punter/Kickoff specialists. I can't imagine they'll both be there for long. Looks like we'll have an opening on the 53 coming up shortly. Unless we're just keeping them both on until Week 2, when Nigel comes back.
