2020 Our Year For Sure Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Wow this is going to be an interesting one. Lacey has come a really long way in a year, Alexander they like for specials, Stanford I've been thinking will make it to be safe at the Mike and Joseph has the upside. I thought they'd keep 7 but now 2 of those 4 have to go. I think Maurice Alexander is out but interested to see who the other is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philo Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Past the starters, I could see any combination of the rest rounding out the 6. Except Dodson, I think he is a clear PS stash. As always, how they fit into ST plans will be a large factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Nails Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Last time I saw Mike Tice, he was pounding drinks at Sideline Sports bar the night before the Bills Raiders game in 2017.

GunnerBill Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Zo Milano Edmunds Thompson Think those 4 are all but in. Mo Alexander I think has a leg up because he plays teams.

DCbillsfan Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Lorax Milano Edmunds Thompson - plays both outside backer spots Stanford - backup Mike Joseph - 5th rd pick plus STs Lacy gets short end of stick. Nice preseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea the reality is the normal balance is: 2 QB 4 RB (including a FB) 6 WR 3 TE 9 OL - - - - - 8 DL 6 LB 10 DB - - - - - 3 ST That gets you to 51. Which leaves you 2 wildcards. Now does a team sometimes go light at a position to allow themselves to keep an extra man somewhere else? Yep. But they are not going to deviate by more than a spot or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While he has a good understanding of his role in the game, he isn't near as athletic as Lacey or Joseph. Lacey should stick, as he plays teams as well. But trying to stash Joseph on the PS could be a bad move IMO. We don't even need to look around the entire league, just our own division, to see there could be a suitor for him immediately. Tough call, but a relished decision looming, as any year prior to last, any of these guys could have started for this squad.

But they are not going to deviate by more than a spot or two. I do think there will be 9 DL unless they decide to cut Love or Harrison the DT. Doubt they can go light on the O-line either with Morse still being out. Can see them adding one more RB too in Perry for ST play. Or they shock everyone and cut DeMarco (which would make many here happy) Adding the DL and RB with your numbers would get them to 53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrags Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Is there a possibility that they consider Lorax a DE/OLB hybrid and count him as a DE? That could mean we keep 6 without him but consider him a lock as a DE. just a thought. I’d really like to keep Vosean 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only was Joseph a draft pick, but his upside is too good to ignore. It is only the preseason, and now the Bills will have a better idea of how to progress with his development. Right now he would be an excellent ST's demon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
