Big C Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Surprised about Wynn as well, figured there'd be a camp battle, he's a solid rotational guy. Wynn was a great rotational player under Schwartz. Maybe the current staff doesn't think he's a fit. The move to OLB made little sense in the first place and since they got Shaq and Adolphus they won't be needing him.

RobRyanFan Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I count 75 on roster then add 14 udfar = 89 maybe Licata makes it 90 after his tryout Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I am suprised at Wynn.....I wonder if he was the insurance in case we didnt get an edge in the draft good call John Surprised about Wynn as well, figured there'd be a camp battle, he's a solid rotational guy. Thats what i figured, must be an injury issue?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 good call John Thats what i figured, must be an injury issue?? Could be an injury complication, but I think it has more to do with scheme fit, combined with the drafting of Lawson and Washington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought of that, but wouldn't they wait a bit longer? Like OTAs or minicamps. The other thing that plays into your comment, is maybe Bills and Wynn agreed he was a longshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand he get resigned by the Bills after things shake out for avet min if he has not found a good home yet. Best wishes to him. btw how is Carrington doing these days..

Hapless Bills Fan Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Could be an injury complication, but I think it has more to do with scheme fit, combined with the drafting of Lawson and Washington. If it was an injury issue, would they be able to release him? He tore his ACL in the first preseason game last August. He was placed on season-ending IR. I know if a player is injured, he can't be cut without an injury settlement and veterans often have injury guarantees in their contracts. OTOH, although Wynn was drafted in 2009 and thus is nominally a 6 year veteran, he kind of kicked around the league, signing with 4 teams mostly as depth. I think it has to do with scheme fit. I was not happy to hear he was being asked to lose weight and play OLB, because you know, that kind of move has just worked so well for the Bills. btw how is Carrington doing these days.. Still listed as a FA. Quad must have healed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, if he is healed i wonder if Bills have any interest after dumping Wynns salary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 This move is all about the do-re-mi. They're looking to free up cap space and give us some breathing room. This gets us to the neighborhood of 1.1M after the rookie pool. spotrac shows 95 on the current roster, so we have enough bodies for camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billykaykay Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 The real question is whether it will be the Patriots or Dolphins who sign him. Wynn was better than "just ok". It seemed to me that he was a formidal DE - arguably as good as Mario 2 years ago. Wynn will latch on somewhere & play well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wynn will latch on somewhere & play well. 11 career sacks. 2.5 in 2014 in buffalo... Almost 30 AND he just tore his ACL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 (edited) The most agile OLB the Bills ever had.I guess all the excitement about his LB prospects was short lived.btw how is Carrington doing these days..Carrington would be a good pickup but I suspect that injuries have all but ended his career.
