FLFan Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 1 minute ago, Giuseppe Tognarelli said: Yeah, it's unbelievable the depth we keep at o-line for players who will never play all season, while going into each week praying about the cornerback position. I do not get it. When all is said and done there will be 6 cornerbacks on the roster, and probably two on the practice squad. That is plenty. The Bills Cb depth is just fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can someone who has been in a division with New England for the last 20 years not realise that? Yes it was Special Teams holding us back in those games against New England, not the fact that we can’t score or stop New England when we had too. Queue up the Leodis McKelvin take.

Queue up the Leodis McKelvin take. No what held us back was we were less talented. But the Patriots in their run won a game or two every year on special teams. They are consistently excellent at it and keep 7 or 8 guys every year for teams. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe Sal sourced they'd both be signed back tomorrow - wait and see, but doubt we see anyone but Roberts fielding kicks. As for Marlowe, they are very high on Johnson and his growth with added ST utility. Likely see Marlowe back for veteran understanding and depth behind Hyde/Poyer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaw66 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 The receiver room is interesting. Three starters and two rookies. McKenzie isn't a very good receiver, nor is Roberts. Two rookies. Says something about what Davis showed. And Hodgins, too I suppose. It looks like they didn't think Hodgins would be around for the PS. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubs Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) I haven't really been paying close attention to camp but kind of surprised TJ Yeldon is still on this team. Also kind of surprised Jake Fromm made the team. Maybe it's obvious from the above that I didn't pay any attention to camp. Go Biils! Let's roll!

So because they're worried that both will get picked up if they cut them, they cut the better of the two to see if he makes it, while keeping the worse one on the actual 53 just in case?

purple haze Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) 32 minutes ago, Bangarang said: What’s the benefit to cutting them today and bringing them back tomorrow? Does it have to do with Mongo or someone else going to IR? Players going to IR would be lost for the season if placed there before making the initial 53. Once they make the initial 53 they can be placed on IR with the option to return during the season. Roberts and Marlowe are vested vets. They aren’t subject to the waiver wire. So cut them today and have the IR guys on the roster. Bring them back tomorrow after players moved to IR.
