Work it out Beane !!
I enjoy Bills meeting so many young prospects that might be fringe players but too soon to tell.
getting to know them works for everyone involved.
Glad McBeanes have faith in their scouting process and scouts as well.
Goes a long ways to longer visioned Team building.

 

interest me that they are looking over some QBs.
Fun to pay attention to for me !

 

Thanks for the updates 26 : )

Yes. This is what’s behind this signing. We’re terrible in both the Punt & KO Return game -and have been 2 seasons going. IF we can find a ‘Roscoe Parrish’ stashed on some teams’ PS, it’s one less off season need.

 

I am leary of little return guys though. They're the easiest to strip the ball away from.. 

 

Now you funny too.

Everybody funny!

I recognize this but can't remember where.  Wasn't it part of a song?

I like Pharoh Cooper.  He was a star at U. of South Carolina.  I did some grad school at USC and follow them.  Our full back went there too.  It would be a good pickup.  He didn't play much for the Rams due to injury.  Somebody will snag him.  Why not the Bills?

 

Made the pro bowl last year as a special teamer as well. I would sign him in a heartbeat our ST sucks. bad.

The fact that the Bills are working out QBs tells me Anderson is retiring after this season (who can blame him?). 

Next year, Barkley will back up Allen and be the mentor/sounding board, while a younger developmental prospect of some sort will be brought in for training camp.

REPORT: Bills Workout Eight Players on Tuesday

 

USATSI_11125070.jpg?itok=YzjgHsTc&c=f9d6

 

The Buffalo Bills worked out a handful of players on Tuesday afternoon.  Numerous different sources via Twitter helped piece together the puzzle, as the list kept growing larger.

 

Three quarterbacks were checked out by the Bills in Garrett Gilbert, Logan Woodside and Bo Levi Mitchell.

 

Gilbert, who last suited up this preseason with the Carolina Panthers, is the son of former NFL quarterback Gale Gilbert, who spent two seasons in Buffalo in 1990 and 1993.

 

Woodside was a 7th-round draft choice of the Cincinnati Bengals this past April, while Mitchell lines up under center for the Calgary Stampeders in the Canadian Football League.  Mitchell went undrafted during his draft year back in 2012, and has been in the CFL ever since.

 

A pair of tight ends also worked out at One Bills Drive.  One was Evan Baylis, who last played in 2017 for the Houston Texans.  The other was Erik Swoope, who was last in game action on December 9th of this year with the Indianapolis Colts.  Swoope caught a touchdown pass back on October 21st in the Colt's 37-5 win over the Bills.

 

As for the wide receivers, they both came from the CFL. Diontae Spencer currently plays for the Ottawa Redblacks.  He is also a return specialist for Ottawa.  Spencer was previously a member of the St. Louis Rams in 2014.  D'haquille Williams is a 25-year-old receiver for the Edmonton Eskimos.  Williams was at one time a Ram as well (2016) and played his college ball at Auburn.

 

Rounding out the list was outside linebacker Cory James, a former Oakland Raider who played 26 career games in the NFL between the 2016 and 2017 seasons.  Notably, he suited up for all 16 contests for the Raiders in 2016.

WTH with working out all those QB?  Anyone have a clue?

Stumped. Dropping Derek maybe?

I would think if Derek did not get some screws actually loosened with that concussion ? he is headed for and assistant's job. QB perhaps.
Barkley is the unknown for me. But no way he is gone this season and i would not be surprised if he made it through camp next season
