Bills will pick up another scrub QB from elsewhere who looks more the part. Im rooting hard he makes the Practice squad his skills set so resembles Allen although extremely green I think the kid has tools that could be worked with and evolve. Plus its a great hometown story Im a fan of those...corey coleman now Tyree Jackson....dang if we'da drafted Gronkowski woulda coulda shoulda I know....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I am thinking there is not going to be too many suprise cuts this year..... I do think some of those cuts that do happen will get picked up quickly I dont anticipate Shady or Robert Foster getting cut....and frankly they should not be. Not at this point.

Rocky Landing Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 3 hours ago, Binghamton Beast said: I believe there is a much better chance that both make the team than the scenario you just laid out. I only say that there is a distinct possibility that we only carry five wide receivers because Beane has mentioned the possibility more than once. I also think there is a good possibility that they carry four RBs, and four TEs, which increases that likelihood. Another indicator that I've seen is that they have been giving Roberts so much time in at WR, and giving him so many routes. And, if we only carry five, the obvious choices would be Brown, Jones, Beasley, Foster, and Roberts. I would say there was a zero chance of carrying both McKensie, and McCloud.

Seemed to me there were a lot of reports of running backs split wide, especially early in camp. I could see a lot of running the ball this year so it wouldn't suprise me if they kept an extra rb vs a wr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Wade has a couple more big plays maybe they expand their rb group? I've said for awhile that Josh needs 1 more year of development so seeing an emphasis on the running game is expected.

MJS Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I see a lot of names that wouldn't be a real surprise in this thread. I'll go out on a limb and say that there will be NO surprise cuts. But there might be some surprise trades. Maybe Long or Feliciano get traded once Mitch is back to full strength. Maybe Foster. Maybe McCoy. 5 hours ago, BurpleBull said: Stephen Hauschka - That would be a surprise Shaq Lawson - He'd be traded, not cut Tyree Jackson - Not a surprise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no 'first round' anymore. The roster must be down to 53 after the 4th preseason game. They got rid of the 'cut to 75' or whatever it was a couple years ago. I suspect you'll start to see the roster size begin to slowly dwindle after Friday's game.

Freddie's Dead Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) My surprise cut is Zay Jones. I've seen enough so I'm saying when. The drop on the goal line is huge. He just can't make the big play when needed. I put McKittrick ahead of him RIGHT NOW. All McKittrick does is make plays every time he gets the ball. Others list McKittrick as the surprise cut. I just hope they're wrong, because he's a better football player than Zay Jones ever was. I'll also add Bodork to my cut list. Carter looked just as good to me, and he hasn't tried to make a fake FG where none existed. Bodork should have been gone after that.

Logic Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Once Kroft and Knox come back healthy, SOMETHING's got to give at the tight end position. They're keeping Lee Smith and Tyler Kroft, based on what they paid them. They're keeping Knox, based on how high he was drafted. I doubt they risk putting Sweeney on the practice squad, with how well he has been playing in training camp. Smith Knox Kroft Sweeney Croom Are they really gonna keep 5 TEs? If not, Croom could be the odd man out. ESPECIALLY since some of the undrafted youngsters like Nate Becker have been showing really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, Croom could be the odd man out. ESPECIALLY since some of the undrafted youngsters like Nate Becker have been showing really well. I think you'll see Kroft on PUP to begin the year and the Bills will carry 4 TE's on the active 53, as they did last year (Smith, Knox, Croom, Sweeny). This will give them a chance to hold onto a young guy and not expose him to the first round of practice squad signings. Once they activate Kroft, they can then decide who the cut will be. This delay affords them a while longer to assess the back end depth at the position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
