Looking for your thoughts Not a bad first pass. I’m keeping one more RB and one less TE (probably cut Thomas). There are a few other tweaks (Newhouse over Boetteger and Adolphus Washington goes IMO). I think safety is one is one of the strongest spots on the roster. You kept 5 of them and then said you wanted to improve there? If you meant CB I would agree. The depth there is scary. Good list though!! I think you are pretty close. Edited August 12, 2018 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I wouldn’t keep 3 QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I think you need more depth at OT. Newhouse, Wesley, McDermott, one of these guys have to make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPbillsfan Posted August 12, 2018 Author Share Posted August 12, 2018 I was hoping Siran Neal would have looked better at training camp but maybe practice squad. I think we could do better then Pitts, but Wallace has been disappointing. Thinking 4 TE as one could play FB, if Riley can be as good as Holmes at ST, we may go 6 WR, and keep Newhouse on the OL. Of course I would love to add Kahiil Mack if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsredneck1 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 i hope they hang on to the edge mike love. they could list him as a lb and have him spell lorax. use him to rush the passer. i think that dude has hughes clone written all over him. besides i think this is lorax's last year and he will cohost one bills live after. there is also keenan robinson so i would cut stanford and humber would be on the bubble. also i think siran neal will come around and maybe push mccray although probably p.s. this year. at wr keeping reilly is a must. i like streeter more than holmes. he can get deep and someone has to go. i was really routing for dupri to step up and also had/have hopes for foster. at cb i think wallace can be better than pitts. at least we'll have one helluva practice squad. 7 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said: Not a bad first pass.

JohnC Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 The OP has a good list. I thought McDermott was a given as a swing tackle but he may be on the bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know much about him but he played some last year(in every game it said). He can’t be terrible. Washington, to me, just gets pushed around. He’s never been the guy that he could have been. Additionally, the Bills can kick Shaq inside on passing downs. He was effective at Clemson doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billspro Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I will be shocked if they don’t keep 4 RBs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Shady plays 16 games it’s hard to rationalize keeping 3 guys behind him. Ivory barring injury is in. It’s Cadet Vs Murphy for the third back in my opinion. For you Murphy bandwagon jumpers don’t forget he was on the roster when they signed Ivory to a 2.5 Million totally guaranteed contract.

I think the Loser out of Peterman and McCarron are looking for a job Also they will keep 5 (RB/FB) minimum. Last year they kept 6.

The loser of McCarron and Peterman really should be cut. What teams? I would have to scrub last years rosters and see what the percentage is. It is very dangerous to carry 2. If on gets hurt you have no back up- sure, you can pick a scrub up that doesnt know this offense and has no timing down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A majority did in 2017. 19 of them. https://www.google.com/amp/s/profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/09/03/majority-of-the-league-going-with-just-two-quarterbacks/amp/ also your BU is Allen. So he comes in. Then after the game if you need to you re-sign the loser kf Peterman or McCarron or get a BU. It has been done like that awhile now.
