Buffalo_Stampede Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Would love Maclin and with his former WR coach here I think we have a shot Remember they have until week 10 to cut Holmes and have it factor into the comp formula Yes, I forgot. They can make that decision well into the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 You would have to release 4 players. But if the Bills are looking to add another mid round pick then Im fine with that. They can sign them back. I wont cry over a 4th WR being released. I think it would be just Ducasse (who isn't going to make the team), and Davis (with Holmes). Davis may play some put they can always add a guy that gets released to fill that "depth DE" role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanC883 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Would love this addition. And while I think Holmes is currently a WR 2 or 3 (yeah, I think he has some huge upside)--if he is 4 I would cut him for a 3rd rounder. Tate can fill-in on special teams, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbomb Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Im predicting it now , bills will get top 10 pick from the chiefs next year. Losing key players and tough schedule, their luck cant last forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im predicting it now , bills will get top 10 pick from the chiefs next year. Losing key players and tough schedule, their luck cant last forever There are 2 forces going up against each other, Bills bad luck and KC's good luck. Which is stronger, and which will end?

RyanC883 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Watkins and Jones outside. Philly Brown in the slot. Holmes is currently our backup at the X or Z. True, although given the injurie(s) to Watkins and/or Jones, I could see him coming in early in the season and playing his way into keeping a spot. That said, I would get Maclin over him if it came down to it. WR depth. Fantastic! Im predicting it now , bills will get top 10 pick from the chiefs next year. Losing key players and tough schedule, their luck cant last forever I would love that. Will be rooting against KC all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 3rd DE is a very important position. Anyone have a list of UFA's we signed? Not players cut. It's in the comp pick thread. This is the most common way to get there. Hauschka and DiMarco factor in as well. Davis is the 3rd DE now (maybe) but he had 4 tackles last year. There will be a lot of guys that hit the market that can do the job as well as him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flomoe Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Why was he released? Cap? attitude? sucks? Considering KC is fairly thin at WR, this release seems odd. Besides Hill, who is a multi purpose player, the next WR on the roster is........Chris Conley? I get that the cap hit was a tough one to swallow but there is nobody else there. I love the move though, the more depleted the Chefs are, the better chance they suck, the better the draft pick for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they forgot they traded the pick, or the trade was conditioned on them tanking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuoteTheRaven83 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 And here it is...LOL. No thanks and I don't think Beane is interested in overpaying free agents. We're building through the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) Apparently they didn't ask him to take a pay cut but did try to feel out trade offers first. Andy Reid was just at his wedding 2 weeks ago. Surprised. Edited June 3, 2017 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsbackto81 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 6 WR's on the final roster Watkins Maclin Zay Jones Andre Holmes Philly Brown Listenbee/Tate Everyone keeps forgetting Streater. I think he beats out Tate and Brown. Watkins/ Maclin/ Z. Jones/ Holmes/ Streater/ Listenbee Me Likey!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 My guess is something like 1 year and $6M. That is just a total random guess based on nothing. Ok then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) It's a good question. You have to wonder... He was released because he declined last year and also cap. Not a #1, Still a good #2. Edited June 3, 2017 by TheTruthHurts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be good if we can get a contribution there but I'm not putting tackling over reviving skills when you probably see two getting noteworthy snaps between injuries and packages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
