If Bryant doesn’t get suspended i’m all for bringing him in. Would love to have Nate Orchard here too, he’s definitely worth a look

Going to be tough with a lot of these guys as Bills are 21st in waiver order

Ahh I didn’t even think of that, so used to being higher up in the order 

I'm not sure how this works tho...i believe waiver claims are onky for players with x number of yers in the league so a lot of rookies and 1st/2nd year players just become UFAs although i might be wrong...

From SB Nation:

"When an NFL team releases a player who has less than four years of NFL service, he is subject to the waiver wire process. NFL players who are released and have four or more years of accrued time in the league become immediate free agents. Accrued seasons are earned by being on the active 53-man roster for a team for six games in a single regular season, or being on an injury list for six games in a regular season."

Martavis Bryant just got released from Oakland 

 

 

“DUMPSTER FIRE” IN OAKLAND

 

It's an utter nightmare for a Raiders team having a cataclysmically bad offseason/summer under old-is-new coach Jon Gruden. Gruden surrendered the No. 79 overall pick for Bryant during April's draft. As for Bryant, this is essentially a career-ender. Players almost never come back from one indefinite suspension. This will be Bryant's second. Going on 28, he seems unlikely to be readmitted to the league. It's a sad development for football fans everywhere, as Bryant had the potential to be one of the top playmakers in the league. The Raiders have a dumpster fire depth chart on both sides of the ball.

1st RD Guard Jonathon Cooper released by San Fransisco.  Can't be worse than Ducasse, even on one leg.

 

I guess I didn't go back far enough.

A couple of interesting names cut. 

 

Eric Lee DE who we had then cut and looked good for the Pats. 

 

Tanner Gentry who is a receiver the Bears waived. He was Josh Allen's guy at Wyoming. 

 

Vince Biegel OLB cut from Green Bay. 

 

Thats all all I got.

A few decent WRs out there. Wright, Thompson and Kamar Aiken. Nothing special but compared to what we have, not terrible.

 

Yeah WR and DB seem like two places that might change. I think signing Gentry is a no brainer. Should be an interesting waivers period.

...wasn't he here once before?............

He had a great preseason for the Bills a few years ago but was cut.  A little bit of a surprise.  He’s been a serviceable WR for a few years.
