also surprised Devey made it passed this wave of cuts he was AWFUL in Chicago

Devey and Hart still here, Lenoir and Adams already out. This must be the higher maths. Anything beyond algebra confuses the hell out of me.

Ya they could be trying to get a couple of these guys to PS before final cuts 

Or they may be giving him a chance to sign onto another teams active roster before the season starts.  They did that with a few Vets that had good tape out there if I recall correctly.  Long term helps get vets in the door because they know the team will help them even it if its not with them.

Releasing 5 players when you don't have to before a preseason game is such bad management.  Wonder what player will end up hurt that you planned to rely upon for the regular season.  These are 5 guys that should have been getting a ton of time on Sat.

I'd think Lance Lenoir has a good shot at the PS.

Lenoir may get picked up by another team.  I think I lot of our WR's could.

 

The reason you cut him now is (a) you know he's not making the 53 but (b) you don't want other GMs to think he was one of your final cuts -- even though he is more valuable than players still on the roster.  It's some low-level Beane strategery to try and sneak him onto the PS.

IMO if you have a player you've seen enough out of, whom you'd like to put on the PS, this is the time to cut them. Makes sense to cut someone now while teams are still evaluating their rosters, might make them hesitate to put in a waiver claim.

Considering they had to cut 5 guys - not sure what this post means.

 

Every team has to get down to 80/81 by today - so we’re the Bills supposed to not do that?

Define surprised...I mean were you expecting him to make the active 53?  I mean we already have 5 must keeps, plus Kumerow and Stevenson fighting for 6th spot, maybe even to force the Bills keep 7.  He just didn't really have a shot to make the roster due to numbers

Surprised as in I thought he’d make it to final cuts

What are you talking about? Teams were required to cut 5 players today . Might see starters play more this week.

Does Bobby Hart have indecent pictures on McD or Beane.......seriously

 

They need a body at tackle especially with the spencer brown injury, at least for the last preseason game.

 

But I would be stunned if Hart is on the final roster and Beane is working on a deal right now for OT help.

I could see Lenior and Thompson back on practice squad.  

 

I'd have thought that too, but usually guys that go to PS are cut in the last round.  Too much time for them to find a new home.  Particularly since many teams may be looking for some bodies to play in this weeks upcoming pre-season games.

I would give you an honest answer, but he does have video of me wearing a Dolphins hat a couple of decades ago and I was also singing the praises of Zima...

 

...some mistakes you just can't outrun.  

 

I wish you could just live your life and be the best "you" you can be.
