I think Kirby asked for a refresh last week just before all the trade chaos started off. After two games here is how I see it.

I make that 32 guaranteed and 15 pretty close. That gets you to 47.... I reckon that at least one more safety and one more tight end are certain to feature which gets you to 49.... 4 spots to then decide between extra corners / receivers / running backs and Reggie Ragland....

Tolbert, Logan Thomas, Worthy, Adolphus, Hodges, and Seymour will all make the team IMO.

I think Worthy has made the team and Ducasse is cut. Maybe that is wishful thinking!

 

I don't get the Colt Anderson love. What has he ever done except be injured and is a marginal talent at best?

 

I also think Elston and Gary are better.

Colt Anderson, before the injury, was a well-respected gunner.

I think Ducasse being cut is wishful thinking. I still hope that he is too, I think he is terrible, but I believe the Bills are going to start the season with him at RG and Miller on the bench. If they do McDermott will lose some early respect for me.
