15 players the Bills could pursue

By Ryan Talbot | Contributing writer

The Buffalo Bills' roster is currently at 52 players. Although the Bills are just one player short of filling their roster, the team could add multiple players based on who was cut around the league on Saturday.

How will transactions work on Sunday? Players with less than four years of service will be put through waivers. The waiver order will be the same as the 2018 NFL Draft order. Any players with four or more years of service will not have to go through the waiver process and are currently free agents.

With this in mind, here are 15 players the Bills could pursue.

As I believe OL is of greatest need I find the following the most intriguing:

 

OC Spencer Pulley - possibly make him center and move Groy to starting guard. Release Bodine. 
 
G/T Austin Pasztor - Good experience, not great at anything but seemed solid. Release Newhouse. 
 
Also throw Gentry in there and release Foster.

Put in claims and calls to all, see who falls to us or wants to come here. Pick up at least 1G to replace Ducasse. 1 T to replace McDermott. Then Pully in, Bodine out.  Groy would have to start at C for the first few weeks while they learn the playbook. Nobody is going to come in and make line calls cold off the street.

I would not mind having Steve Means a Bill. A Buffalo kid through and through, like Naaman Roosevelt. I just don't know if he's an upgrade over who we have now.

 

If not, there's no point in signing him regardless of being a Buffalo native.
