Tracker: Bills' Roster Moves to the 53 Man Limit - Two Players Awarded from Waiver Claims with Colton Schmidt Released


Recommended Posts

  • 26CornerBlitz changed the title to Tracker: Bills' Roster Moves to the 53 Man Limit - Two Players Claimed from Waivers

How bad is o-line play in the NFL when two rejects from our terrible line get claimed by other teams?

 

“Four players the Bills cut on Saturday were claimed elsewhere around the league: Ike Boettger (Chiefs), Kaelin Clay (Giants), Adam Redmond (Cowboys) and Tanner Vallejo (Browns).” 

 

Or maybe, we’re not doing something right in Buffalo? Like our o-line coach?

That's a good question. I imagine teams do it all the time. Obviously the ones open to public. Would be hard to enforce if league was against it. 

Agreed. I am sure the point of my question is obvious. How do the Bills know Bojorquez is worth signing given the Pats* hid him all preseason.

good question...I know about 10 years ago when the Skins were charging for TC practices, meant the practices could be taped by anyone..so they stopped charging.

I do think teams sign players cut all the time more based on their Scouts and player personnel guys detailed college evaluations versus the limited action in, say, preseason games. Be really hard I think to evaluate a punter in practice unless he was really bad.

Makes sense. But this is an especially curious move, presuming Schmidt gets cut today. The Bills are really taking a big risk, now presumably going into the season opener with a punter they maybe haven't seen in any action since December and even then it was in college.
