mileena Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) Kinda surprised only one RB. And is anyone else surprised the Bills didn't draft a RB with on of their three late picks? Here is our positional breakdown for the roster, currently at 93: Positional Breakdown QB - 5 RB - 7 WR - 12 TE - 6 OL - 18 DL - 13 LB - 9 CB - 9 S - 9 K - 1 P - 2 LS - 1 So 7 seems a little low, but we still may add some more, provided other players get cut or moved to inured reserve lists.

And he's now rejected it in favour of an invite by the Saints because of the firing of the scouting department. “New Orleans didn’t make it out to my pro day,” Salmon said. “But their special teams coach called me, and we kept in contact. Every other day, he had me send him videos of me doing different types of snaps. They expressed a lot of interest in me." “They were the most persistent and the team I thought I’d call.” “They don’t have a long snapper,” he said. “Their job is open, and I’m excited to go show them what I can do.” http://highschoolsports.pennlive.com/news/article/-611041170055524854/former-cumberland-valley-maine-player-jeremy-salmon-says-hes-now-headed-to-new-orleans-saints-after-bills-fire-gm-doug-whaley/ Edited April 30, 2017 by Blokestradamus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
