Forget about QBs, who's getting cut?


Recommended Posts

the entire 2nd team OL!

 

Lol

Duke is not getting cut after a bad preseason game!! Overreact much? He played poorly yesterday but has also played well in NFL games.

Kupper on the other hand looks like a high school player.

Reports are Duke is not practicing well, heard that lately?

Yeah, and he is still 3rd on the depth chart. Duke played half of the snaps last year and played well. Guys aren't cut based on a bad preseason performance or Ronald Darby wouldn't have been on the team last night. Edited by Kirby Jackson

Don't like seeing Thigpen, Bryce or Andre Davis on list.

Remove Bryce Brown, Andre Davis, Nick O'Leary and Chris Gragg from that list and I am good.

Andre Davis is a likely PS candidate.

He'd be on Cleveland's active roster the next day!!

Substitute O'Leary with Thigpen and I'm good. O'Leary goes to PS.

Thigpen is a field position monster on special teams

I'm with you. Hopefully there is a spot for Thigpen. He catches the ball and makes good decisions. This is in addition to being a good return man.

Im not sure, say they keep 5, I go.

 

Woods, Watkins, Harvin, Easley, Davis

 

There is no way they only keep 5 when one of them is Easley who has shown zero ability as a receiver and another is an undrafted rookie who has caught 2 balls so far in pre-season. That would be negligent in the extreme.

 

I still believe the receivers will be:

 

Watkins

Woods

Harvin

Hogan

Easley

A.N. Other (and I still believe that is between Goodwin and Thompson)

Ok I think they keep Hogan and one of Goodwin or Thompson is cut.

I certainly hope they keep Gragg and cut Gray (think this is 50/50 but if you are keeping Mulligan as a specialist blocker then I think you keep the best receiving TE you have after Clay... that is Gragg without any doubt for me).

I think they might end up keeping Cedric Reed over Buchanon who has shown zero so far.

 

Then I also think Lankaster doesn't make the roster (Carrington the likely beneficiary) or if he does is the week 2 cut to activate Dareus.

That's tough for me. I'd rather keep one less TE, DE, or OL. I know that is a BS answer (in that I didn't answer the question). Both guys help a team built to play good defense and ball control.

The only OL worth keeping to me are Glenn, Incognito, Wood, Miller, Henderson, Urbik and Henderson. Then I look over the waiver wire to find a seasoned vet or two. I'm also think we look hard at cut TEs, as I only like Clay. The rest of the group is meh. Gragg stepped up in the final drive but man not sure I am sold on his as anything more than a number 3. I might eye the 49ers in part for the Roman connection and they have a ton of TEs on their roster and maybe we can look at former 49er current Patriot Asante Cleveland.

Keep Gragg not Gray. At least one of the rookie WRs to PS. What about Simms; does he have enough upside for PS?

With Practice Squads still being 10 vs 8 players Simms has a good chance.

Megahand can't get cut!!!

I like Carrington as much as the next guy but he might be in a numbers game as if he's regulated to play DT he might be behind Dareus, K Williams, C Bryant, Charles and R B ryant. Now if he's at DE he has a better chance as see some play as think M Williams, Hughes are the only givens.

Hmmmm...

Chris Hogan goes on IR. Harvin goes Pup or whatever allows him back on the team but does not count against the roster.

You should be able to trade Brown and maybe even Conner.

I like Thigpen but that might be indulgent.

 

QUITE a few can make it to PS but may get picked up and quite few should just go away. and i hope Whaleys Gang is watching the wire

Why Carrington, because he has not been available ?

He can play multiple techniques. I think Bryant and Rexys coaching preferences will be in play here if he cannot get on the field??

That big gut we just picked up.

oops! his name starts with an R.

The NT who plays the run and fills the gaps.

Red, I was only asking because we also have Corbin Bryant who's Kyle Williams primary backup who think might be a little better than Kyle when it comes to stopping the run. I agree Carrington offers more than Red does but thus far "Mega hand" has been quiet in part because of injuries.

Right! Hence my oops!!

 

Concerned Carrington will not make the roster at this point. Always liked the kid too.

The reason i mentioned Red is because Bills did not have a big ole runstuffer till him. I think Rex might like that in his arsenal. But we shall see.

Anyone see his play? or did he get on the field? i only listened to the game

Thought on how he might fit in to Rex and Thurman profile?

i think they would the fat kid in the middle. or very near the center

63 Daryl Johnson is a cone. Which is insulting to the cone.

#61 Kupper and #63 Johnson were absolutely abominable. One or both was cleanly beaten on virtually every single play they were out there. And this was vs Cleveland's second team. Not good.

It may well be time to part ways with Easley, despite his special teams ability.

The thing with Easley is he almost shouldn't be listed as a receiver. He should be listed with the long snapper as a specialist gunner because he has shown zero ability to catch passes in the NFL

As of right now for me Andre Davis and Deonte Thompson in Goodwin and Hogan out.

I agree. Thompson is only 1/10th of a second slower than Goodwin, who can't stay healthy, and he's a lot bigger. Davis just looks to be much more talented than Hogan. I'd put Lewis on the practice squad. Coming from a small school the NFL stage looks to be too big for him right now (unlike Davis) but maybe he can develop once he gets acclimated. I think the Bills core WRs are good enuf to maybe roll the dice a bit with less experienced players who doubtless have a lot to learn but who seem to have raw talent and a lot of upside. And they are bargain basement too.
