Dragonborn10 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I can't believe this is the opening day roster. O'Leary has no business on the 53 man roster. I think it is crazy only going with 7 O-lineman. I liked Red Bryant over Carrington though I would have kept both. My bet is they sign a G-C and cut O'Leary or Gragg. Then bring back Bryant and get rid of one these three - Hogan/Goodwin/Brown by trade for low end draft pick. What say you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mentioned multiple times already but I think you stash 3-4 OL on the enhanced practice squad and then dress all 7 every week. Those 8th or 9th OL are usually the worst players at their job on either O or D. Practice squad is a roster spot saver for OL. Love Red Bryant but not sure Rex wants to commit to a stationary NT. My bet is that there are at least 2-3 different guys on this roster by opening day. Only one I'd trade is Hogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have taken a G\C with our first pick in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I will bet anything we don't have five TEs on the roster in week two, and very likely not in week one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdaigler Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Seems pretty last minute to be looking for O-line depth at final cut down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I said it last year and I'll say it again. We should have taken a G\C with our first pick in the draft. Yeah, we suck. Instead of listening to you, they drafted one in the 2nd round who's starting. When will they ever listen to you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I said it last year and I'll say it again. We should have taken a G\C with our first pick in the draft. We got a good guard in the draft by the looks of things. Our O-line was so bad last yeae you could make a case for taking linemen with every pick but we did have a few other needs as well.

Kelly the Dog Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Yeah, we suck. Instead of listening to you, they drafted one in the 2nd round who's starting. When will they ever listen to you... It's especially true that we should have taken an OG/C with our first pick when our second pick was a OG who is a starter and looks terrific.

BuffaloFan68 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 O'Leary & Gragg would get snatched up in a heartbeat. I'm glad we're keeping them. Superbowl here we come!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final 53 is still very much in flux...more moves will be made either by trade or waiver wire pickups; that's why the Bills got down to 51 today - to give themselves the flexibility to add depth. I'd agree that OL after the starting 5 is an area of big concern. I have faith Rex & Doug are all over it, and Doug is working the phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 I said it last year and I'll say it again. We should have taken a G\C with our first pick in the draft.Completely agree. Wood was bad last year. If he stinks again then they will draft a C in the first or second round. Of course that will depend on what happens with Glenn too.Seems pretty last minute to be looking for O-line depth at final cut down? Agree. They probably thought Richardson would develop though.

NewEra Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Kinda shocked/pissed we cut Bryant. I thought he was a perfect addition. Not sure why anyone wants a 5th TE. I'd rather have Bryant than O'leary/Gragg. Who keeps or needs 5 TEs? We have a very good starter that will be here for years to come. We have a blocking Specialist in mulligan and 3 smaller type TEs filling 3-5. I see a few more moves happening before opening day. 5 TEs is nutso imo. Hopefully mulligan can play guard/tackle/center too. 7 OL is risky business with a complicated offense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Nails Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 As it stands, we're really thin on the lines in terms of depth. Thankfully they have versatile guys backing-up, but I'd rather have another solid lineman on both sides than 7 wrs (8 counting thigpen) and 5 tes. Hopefully those two spots go to the line tomorrow. Surprised to see Big Red get cut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Yeah, we suck. Instead of listening to you, they drafted one in the 2nd round who's starting. When will they ever listen to you... Actually it was the 3rd lol Darby was in the 2nd. But I get the gist of what your saying... I honestly think O'Leary is going to practice squad....maybe some games to get him there and not get picked up? And Gragg? That guy has looked very good this offseason.......I think he is gonna get playing time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 O'Leary & Gragg would get snatched up in a heartbeat. I'm glad we're keeping them. Superbowl here we come!!! Why would O'Leary get snatched up in a heartbeat....and how much will he even get on the field? I'm guessing he's released very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryland-bills-fan Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 They are going to use a lot of 2 and 3 TE sets, so they will use the TE more than most teams. Also, I wonder if we may see one of the TE's playing a backfield position, either as an extra blocker or the second string fullback. Maybe O'leary is headed to the practice squad with a later waiver after other teams have picked their PS players and adjusted their rosters?

Punching Bag Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Kinda shocked/pissed we cut Bryant. I thought he was a perfect addition. Red Bryant slows down towards end of year. Bills may bring him back after game 1 where they pay per game so they do not need to pay guaranteed salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
