I don't think that's something they're interested in. If they were, they'd have done it by now. Fact is, we have the same CB's we had last season. The only difference being Dane Jackson takes the place of Josh Norman. I'm assuming Cam Lewis returns to the Practice Squad and Rachad Wildgoose takes Dane Jackson's place there this year. They seem to be a lot more comfortable and confident in their core there than people realize.

Maybe you’re right, but after watching teams repeatedly target and often take advantage of Wallace last season, I was hoping that they would look for an upgrade.

Finding a receiver on a PS elsewhere to replace Kumerow is to my mind a LOT easier than finding a gunner as good as Taiwan. 

 

Siran Neal can play gunner.  I keep Kumerow.  I feel that Kumerow offers more value to the team.

Two TEs on a roster and one of them hurt is a weird look for the NFL, even if they have some moves planned.

 

We're super deep in certain areas though so it makes sense given the mediocre TE room

They really like Knox. It doesn’t really show up on Sundays imo but he must be doing something right because they won’t budge.

I won't be happy if the Hollister cut is legitimate. Knox is too inconsistent to hand him the job. Hollister can catch the ball. I'm hoping it is just an IR gymnastics move like most of us think.

That does just seem really off though. I guess Gilliam does also fill a TE spot so we've got 3.

Wonder if maybe this is because he's got contacts/connections with Ferguson who's been here years but not with Hollister who's only been here this one camp.

I'm just joking. If you see how weirdly contentious it got, you'll get it.

This has probably been covered but I have to imagine a new corner is going to join the team. 

 

It has been and as I've said, I don't see it. Beane and McDermott have said time and again when it's brought up that they are very comfortable with their Corner's. And if you look at it, it's the same squad of 5 they had last season. Just with Dane Jackson in place of Josh Norman. If they were going to make a move, they'd have done it by now. Anyone brought in now would have to get up to speed with the Defense with the season ongoing. We're rolling with who we got on the 53 with Cam Lewis and Rachad Wildgoose on the Practice Squad, most likely.

Maybe, but I really doubt it.  They have the same number as last year with a bit more inside/outside flexibility.  They will also keep 2 CBs and a safety on the PS much like last year.

 

I think they are set, but maybe if the right guy is released they will trade something out, but my guess is they have the guys they want.

Wade? Is he still on the team?

IR as he needs shoulder surgery.  They can’t cut him - so he just looks like he made the team, but he didn’t.  He is done for the year - at least with the Bills.

No, but they can reach an injury settlement. Which is pretty likely, in my opinion, as he's done this year and likely won't be exempt for a 4th season. Also if he was already exempt, why put him on the IR for the year unless they planned on coming to a settlement and being done with it?

They actually have Ferguson listed on the roster with an asterisk next to his name. Casts a bit more doubt on Hollister's return.

Not on the Bills website.  He's not on the roster and the depth chart has no one listed for LS.  Sal's chart is his own.  Not official.

Yeah, like, for versions of "lately" equal to 75% of training camp and hurt again.

 

Until Sweeney proves he can be durable, keeping Knox and Sweeney is like keeping 1 TE

 

Of course, it's entirely possible that the Bills have their eyes on another TE who is on the cutout bin
