Not unhappy just a little surprised  Eh, haven't really seen enough of him to have a strong opinion, but my impression is that he's been working hard and making his case. Being a 2nd year draft pick probably gives him an edge over Pitts, but he could also be the one to go if they really do wanna bring back Captain week 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is, which out of Phillips and Sills do they keep? I can't see them keeping 8 because releasing Duke would really make no sense at all That's a lot of WR's to have on the roster. You hate to cut talent, but when would the 6th, 7th or 8th WR even see the field. It's a waste of valuable roster spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they should be thinking is "is that really how our offense is built?"  I don't agree with the Shady decision. I do think Duke was the 7th best receiver option though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a star in the CFL, being named Grey Cup MVP in 1979. He led the Cleveland Browns in tackles in 3 of his 4 seasons there, and had 4 interceptions in 1983 and was named second team all-NFL. He was considered so good that the Bills got a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd for trading Cousineau to the Browns. The Bills used that 1st to draft Jim Kelly.

GaryPinC Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 The biggest disappointment about the Shady cut was how strongly the FO was endorsing him before and into training camp. I feel like they could have been more neutral about him and have maybe created some mistrust within the locker room? Clearly bringing in Gore, Yeldon, Singletary, showed they were concerned about McCoy, which I was happy to see. But I was confused by how willing they were to continue talk him up. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Shady wasn't buying in, the team knows that even if we don't.  Plus, after trading Sammy and Darby, benching Tyrod, etc. none of this comes as a shock. And yet the team overall still feels very all-in and like a family so McDermott is doing his job. Not worried about mistrust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdnlng Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Since Duke Williams is an accomplished blocker how about placing him on the PS (if possible) and encourage him to gain muscle in order to convert him to a TE? The great TE's can catch and block. He can do both but is just a little small. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanC883 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I don't get the Duke Williams cut.  No way he clears waivers.   Shady makes sense at 6.1 million cap hit and Singletary has played well.  So has Gore—who is also great in pass protection.    Williams is puzzling.  Getting rid of a big redzone target is not a way to help a young qb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hey boss I heard there may be a layoff?" "Nope no truth to that rumor"  Next day, layoffs announced. My point being players get it. And also maybe he wasn't the locker room leader that he tended to be made out to be.
