GunnerBill Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) With the draft out of the way my next favourite activity is trying to work out what the make up of the Bills 53 man roster is likely to be. I have been through this morning and categorised every player (only added a few of the UDFAs at this point but they are safely all in the red camp anyway) in one of three categories: BLACK = Certain to be on the roster if healthy BLUE = Likely to be on the roster if healthy RED = Fighting for a roster spot Quarterback Tyrod Taylor Cardale Jones EJ Manuel Fullback Jerome Felton Glenn Gronkowski Running Back LeSean McCoy Karlos Williams Mike Gillislee Jonathan Williams James Wilder Jnr Wide Receiver Sammy Watkins Robert Woods Marcus Easley Greg Salas Kolby Listenbee Leonard Hankerson Dez Lewis Greg Little Jarrett Boykin Tight End Charles Clay Jim Dray Nick O’Leary Chris Gragg Blake Annen Offensive Line Cordy Glenn Richie Incognito Eric Wood John Miller Jordan Mills Fernando Velasco Seantrel Henderson Cyrus Kouandjio Ryan Groy Ronald Patrick Cyril Richardson Defensive Line Marcell Dareus Kyle Williams Corbin Bryant Adolphus Washington Jerel Worthy TJ Barnes Linebacker Shaq Lawson Jerry Hughes Manny Lawson Reggie Ragland Preston Brown Zach Brown Lorenzo Alexander Jarius Wynn Eric Striker IK Enemkpali Randell Johnson Kevin Riddick Max Valles Lavar Edwards Cedric Reed Corner Stephon Gilmore Ron Darby Nickell Robey Mario Butler Corey White Sterling Moore Kevon Seymour Javier Arenas Sammy Seamster Merrill Noel Safety Aaron Williams Corey Graham Robert Blanton Colt Anderson Duke Williams Jonathan Meeks Jonathan Dowling Philip Thomas Specialists Dan Carpenter Colton Schmidt Garrison Sanborn Jordan Gay Marshall Morgan Edited May 1, 2016 by GunnerBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 The conclusion of that is there are 30 certainties (health depending) and a further 15 who are likely. That makes 45. So 8 spots for the rest to realistically fight over and one would presume at least a couple of those need to go to tight ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 One kicker on the roster, please. They have to be beating the bushes for a camp competition. Is Carpenter kicking extra points daily in the offseason? I think Zimmer could make the squad It's surprising he wasn't drafted, especially following his Combine performance.

Marty McFly Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 One kicker on the roster, please. They have to be beating the bushes for a camp competition. Is Carpenter kicking extra points daily in the offseason? It's surprising he wasn't drafted, especially following his Combine performance. We picked up a rookie hopefully he can be the complete kicker we have lacked for years. Two law firms: Lawson, Lawson, & Hughes; and Brown, Brown, & Ragland. having Shaq, Ragland, AND washington on defense really hyped me up for next year, I just hope Blanton or another UDFA can become our next "Searcy," We need a ball hawking saftey to pick up more turnovers this year. I wish we wud have kept Rambo and left him on STs at worst cuz that mother!@#$er makes plays, he might be limited athletically but he creates turnovers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 There's my quick look take. agreed. i'd say at wr it could come between listenbee and hankerson striker over wynn due to versatility. duke williams and meeks will be in the league in 2016. maybe not with the bills, but they will be.

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Not bad on paper. If everything gels and Rex steps up we may go to the Playoffs. If Rex does an encore of last years ineptness we could go 6-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
