Also sign 7 of 9 practice squaders. Touchdown Mike! Like all those moves. Schmidt was great all year. Salas earned his keep and Mario Butler isn't a bad reserve.

EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 if one year ago today, you asked me who the bills RBs were, I wouldn't have guessed any of them. If you told me that they were the number one rushing attack in the NFL, I wouldn't believe you. If you told me that, I would have guessed at least ONE of them would have been Freddy. McCoy, Karlos and Gillislee might be the best RB crew in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good depth with the rest. @tydunne Future signings: TE Blake Annen, DB Jonathan Dowling, TE Jacob Maxwell, C Ronald Patrick, DE Cedric Reed, G Cyril Richardson S Philip Thomas Schmidt is a top notch talent at punter but they GOTTA get a different holder. He really struggled with holds this year. He didn't drop any kick holds but every hold was a struggle. He simply couldn't catch, drop and spin like an NFL holder..........it seemed like half of his holds end up laces out. He had one of Carps misses in KC tipped on a 70 degree angle. I'm not excusing Carp because he's been sh*t even on extra points but I think the holds have been bad and as flaky as kickers can be you need proper execution in front of them. I don't know if EJ has ham hands or what but I was surprised to see the awkward handling all season. Long snapping on punts was off this year too. Saw maybe 4-5 of them go far too wide to Schmidts right. One of them Schmidt did drop in the game in NJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Camp fodder. Nothing more to see here. actually, those are responsible solid signings. Colton is an obvious sign.

Jonathan Dowling will make the 53 next year if he doesn't do something stupid between now and then. I will die on this hill.

Whaley and Coaches are not afraid to turn over the roster frequently at this level. after all the injuries this past year, familiarity has value too. Plenty of time to seek better players.

BADOLBILZ Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 What about Hankerson? Hankerson is an unrestricted free agent who is going to explore his options. Not sure about Salas but most of those guys they retained are restricted free agents.............. so if the Bills tendered them it was highly unlikely anyone would try to poach them and give up draft picks in return.

Butler and Salas will fight for roster spots next year. Agreed. I think Butler is pretty sure of making the roster if McKelvin is either released or moved to safety. Salas has a fight on his hands to make the team.. but he certainly has a chance I don't think they will re-sign Hogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boater Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Colton is a keeper. Salas impressed me yesterday with a couple big plays, in a big game. He's been practice squad fodder on several teams. One reason for the team changes: he was poached by other teams during a Injured Reserve or Practice Squad move. That teams keep poaching him is an indicator that something more than practice squad is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whaley and Coaches are not afraid to turn over the roster frequently at this level. after all the injuries this past year, familiarity has value too. Plenty of time to seek better players. Not meant as a knock. A few will be role players and a couple of these depth players will get shots. On a roster that's likely nearing set for next year it'll be some of the more interesting stories. Odds are none will be stars but a few will certainly contribute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Really happy about Schmidt and Gillislee, I was actually worried Gillislee was going to be signed by someone else with how he performed (minus the final game).

I didn't notice it on place kicks but his punt snapping was really shaky in the second half. It may be time. They should bring in a new ST coach.........I don't know how any player can have confidence in Crossman given his overwhelmingly bad record as a ST coach.
