The Jokeman Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Jameel Mclain cut by the Giants, I know we worked him out last year. I'm sure he might start elsewhere but he be a nice thought at backup MLB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyC81 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/08/31/raiders-cut-trent-richardson/ Trent Richardson cut. One of the biggest busts in recent history. I can't believe Indy traded for him. Nor can I believe that they gave us Hughes. Quick- get the Indy GM on the phone and work a deal! It's hard to follow in the shoes of Bill Polian. Browns cut Thad Lewis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackInDaDay Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 (edited) Jameel Mclain cut by the Giants, I know we worked him out last year. I'm sure he might start elsewhere but he be a nice thought at backup MLB. yep - he started a lot of games his last 5 years for both the G-men and Ravens. i also like veterans LB Andy Studebaker and CB Will Blackmon and yes, i think we could do worse than carry Thad Lewis as our #3 - if they want that many. he's a playmaker who can make them for either team Edited September 5, 2015 by BackInDaDay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I can't recall so few vested vets being available on the final cuts. Just table scraps today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Did you miss the Rex interview where he said he has left Darby all alone, intentionally, the entire preseason? No over the top S help. No double teams. Nothing. Hell, I wouldn't put it past Rex to have called the opposing coaches and told them his intentions. I thought this one was already common knowledge here. We might leave Darby all alone against the other team's #1 WR what? 2 times a game, maybe? Certainly not every time, the entire game. And, the NFL called the Bills and said at least 1 of the big PIs on Darby was a bad call. Just trying to put things in proper perspective. I'm not saying Darby did great, but, I also watched the Carolina game live, and he made just as many good plays as bad. Darby is not a problem. Darby being an untested rookie, was tested, and came away with a B-, given the curve. Darby will struggle but the bigger issue on defense is back-up safety. They are all bad.

I recall reading that Rex wasn't going to give him help against Carolina, and i think it was the Steelers game where he was going to throw more complex coverages at them to see how the entire unit responded. i have no confidence in Darby being ready for this. eventually Rex will learn what Schwartz learned - that defenders downfield mixed with a strong pass rush force QBs into mistakes and sacks. here's hoping he doesn't learn the hard way, as he is dedicated to his brand of D.

Robchester Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 What happened to whichever Denver kicker got cut? Both of them had big legs, unless it was just the thin air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 What happened to whichever Denver kicker got cut? Both of them had big legs, unless it was just the thin air. Conner Barth got cut and then he signed with Tampa who then cut him. He was a solid kicker for Tampa a few years ago, I can't say he's better than Carpenter but because he can do kickoffs he might be better option than the Carpenter/Gay combo platter if we want to open up a roster spot.

BADOLBILZ Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Darby will struggle but the bigger issue on defense is back-up safety. They are all bad. And Rex thinks Darby will be fine and that he had 6 guys who could start at safety. Reportedly hated to let Meeks go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 http://www.hngn.com/articles/71427/20150221/houston-texans-rumors-louis-nix-in-obriens-dog-house-targeting-nose-tackle-in-2015-nfl-draft.htm I was pretty high on Nix, but the cut I was interested in is Charles James, the corner from the Texans. I thought he looked pretty good. Not sure his size though I don't know how surprising it is, but Charles James looked good on Hard Knocks, but was cut by the Texans. Some talent and versatility there. THANK YOU!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 NFL Draft Diamonds @DraftDiamonds 4m4 minutes ago New York Jets just waived Rontez Miles, Rex Ryan loves him. Do not be surprised if Bills claim him tomorrow Jake Steinberg @Steiny31 .@RontezMiles finishes preseason as @PFF's number one safety with a +7.3 grade. Also the best grade on the Jets. 3:45 PM - 4 Sep 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) Kenrick Ellis (former Jet) was a guy I thought the Bills would be interested as a FA earlier this spring. He signed with the Giants and is now back on the street. He'd be a nice space eater alternative to Carrington, IMO... http://www.northjersey.com/sports/football/happy-to-be-blue-1.1400520 Edited September 6, 2015 by Lurker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
