T master Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 20 hours ago, Matt_In_NH said: Here is how I see the 53....actually 54 with Miller on PUP. I think the Bills will trade one or two guys. Based on reports I considered Shavers over Shorter but Beane likes his draft picks under 4 year contracts. Morris in, Sterberger out. Gilliam in Boettger out Basham in, no one out. Explanation. Every year the Bills set a 53 and waive someone (like Reid Ferguson) that they then sign back the next day after they put someone on IR. I am predicting they do that with someone below. So with miller, that makes 55 total guys which is what they did last year to start the season. QB 2 Allen, Allen RB 4 Cook, Harris, Murray, Gilliam TE 3 Knox, Kincaid, Sternberger Morris WR 6 Diggs, Davis, Harty, Shakir, Sherfield, Shorter OT 4 Dawkins, Brown, Quessenbury, Shell OG 3 Torrence, McGovern, Edwards, Boettger C 2 Morse, Bates DT 5 Jones, Ford, Oliver, Phillips, Settle DE 5. Epenesa, Floyd, Lawson, Rousseau, Basham LB 6 Bernard, Milano, D Williams, Spector, Dodson, Matekavich CB 7 Elam, Jackson, T Johnson, Neal, White, Benford, Lewis S 4 Poyer, Hyde, Rapp, Hamlin K 1 Bass H 1 Ferguson P 1 Martin PUP Miller Lets refine this. If you are game, you can make one change to the above list. Copy, paste edit your guy, cross out the guy I kept and put in your guy bolded. Then someone can make a further edit. Each person can make one edit and anyone added (bolded) cannot be removed. Here are the key guys I have as not making it and prime candidates for the PS. Some of the key cuts are underlined. This years draft picks are italicized. I suspect Gilliam will actually make it. QB 1 Barkley (Emergency QB) RB 1 Evans TE 1 Sternberger WR 2 Isabella, Shavers OT 2 Anderson, Doyle OG 3 Mancz, Broeker, Boettger C 0 DT 1 Ankou DE 2 Jonathan, Ray, LB 1 Klein CB 2 Austin, Ingram S 1 Marlowe Looks good but i think Spector will be on the PS & Klien will be on the active roster, & there is a good chance that th either Allen at QB could be on the PS too from anything i've read he's not all that & a bag of chips ...

frostbitmic Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 13 hours ago, BillsFanForever19 said: Matakevitch isn't going anywhere. With the losses of Taiwan Jones, Jake Kumerow, and others who were core Special Teamers - Matakevitch is clearly the Captain of the Special Teams. He is currently on the PUP. I don't know if it's a short term issue that will have him activated for Week 1 or it's something longer. If he isn't activated by Week 1, his roster spot could temporarily go to someone else. But make no mistake about it, when he's activated, he's on the 53. Maybe so but his production on Special Teams was behind both Cam Lewis and Siran Neal, who are both players on the roster bubble and actually get snaps on defense. I'd keep both of them ahead of Matekevich. Taiwan Jones didn't even make the top 100 ST tackle list.(just thought I'd throw that in) Last year Klein was the 3rd best LB on the team and #2 is now a Bear. Has he been passed up by Dodson, Bernard, Williams or anybody else ? ... If he has been passed up you cut him, if not, he'd be more valuable to the team than a ST only player.

In short, this contract sucks and he is likely staying. 27 minutes ago, SoCal Deek said: And if there isn’t an injured player? I’m curious as to what everyone thinks.

In some ways you are better off trading a couple guys who someone is willing to give you a pick for. You really want a spot or two if someone of interest becomes available.

finn Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 20 hours ago, Bangarang said: Signed a new LG, drafted a RG in the 2nd round who was widely projected to go in the 1st, signed some veteran depth guys as insurance. I don’t see that as Beane trotting out the same unit from last year and simply hoping for the best. I'm happy that Beane replaced Saffold, one of the worst free agents signings in franchise history, and drafted a right guard. But he's counting on Spencer Brown at tackle, and that worries me. Since his rookie season, Brown has been either injured or ineffective, even a downright liability. He has shown promise as a run blocker, and, yes, his injuries means he hasn't had much playing experience, so maybe he'll develop. But that's quite a gamble, given that the backups aren't rock solid. Beane has done a terrific job with the team elsewhere, but, with Brown, he's throwing the dice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last three years the bills have kept 9 or 10 DL. The Bills have kept 6 CB's the last three years so you could be right there. Cam Lewis is CB/Safety though. Maybe someone does not make it, for instance, Neal could be the odd man out.....they can save a little cap space if they waive him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never clears waivers with that film. Ford is a bit like Oliver, just not stout enough at the point of attack, but doesn't have Oliver's elite quickness to disrupt. He got engulfed or driven back most plays, the one he didn't he got the sack. Even that one run play people point to as a highlight for standing up the guard and having the runner barrel into him, went for 4 yards. Evans may have a path as a return guy. Isabella ain't it. Anderson has been working at G/C like Bates. Gouraige should at least get a mention for PS. Steenbergen is bad at blocking and bad at ball security it seems. Don't even want him on PS. If I had another scratch it'd be Quess. Judging the depth chart he's already on the way out and if not for Shell retiring I'd say he's 100% gone. Pretty sure Doyle makes it over Quess but honestly I'd rather have Gouraige if it came to that. Edited August 16, 2023 by Ralonzo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 If this team truly believes they are a still a legit SB contender there's no way they can roll into the regular season with the LB depth chart as is.

I would not completely rule it out but I agree it is not likely. I think there are 3 things that may work against him. First, of course the knee. Maybe I'm off, but soreness and injury are 2 different issues to me. If it was an injury...that heals. Soreness may (and yes, this is speculation on my part) lend to the idea that it's a chronic issue. And a RB with a chronic bum knee is no bueno. Second, opportunity. Him being out has given the rest of the RB room a shot to pass him up. It looks/sounds like Murray has impressed. Third...and I can't stress this enough...he doesn't contribute on STs. Traditionally, a 3rd RB active on gameday (4th if you count Gilliam) has to play Teams. Evans does. Not sure on Mims. If Murray leaps Harris this would at best put him in the TJ Yeldon role of a vet that doesn't dress on GameDay. 1 hour ago, Ralonzo said: Wasn't impressed with Mims tape.

Other than than that, I am in full agreement. Nice job. A question for all; What would a corresponding move activating Von look like in your scenario (barring injuries and such)? I ask because in this current roster, I’m guessing you axe the 5th DT or possibly Cam Lewis since both Siran Neal and Benford and could play safety if needed Edited August 17, 2023 by EmotionallyUnstable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The three individual questions are: 1. Doyle (health) 2. K Allen (performance and McDermott's admission on open competition) 3. Shorter (lack of impact on both O and STs in camp and PS1) Think those are the three spots I see as up for grabs.

Doc Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 The question is, can they justify keeping a roster spot for Reggie Gillian? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
