MAJBobby Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) I did not know this and seeing this is a PS thread I would put it here in case there is others that didnt know this change occurred. For some reason I thought I saw PS protections last year still. Edited August 30, 2023 by MAJBobby 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note. I wish the league would offer recoup of the draft pick if a Rookie is cut and claimed. It makes it so hard to keep and develop later talent when you have a good roster build out. They can easily do this before the compensatory picks are handed out. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 100% accurate per Sal (heard it around 11:30 today). Teams can make an injury settlement. Then, they need to wait three weeks (I assume three games at this point but he said three weeks). After the waiting period they can sign with any team. Sal suggests that this is likely what the Bills plan to do with Barkley and in the meantime sign another QB to the PS.

It’s the NFL equivalent of bidding $1 on the Price is Right. Just find a team that doing well and wait for their cuts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the former could help the Bills with depth and special teams play this season, and I think the latter two are good young players that have a shot to contribute in future seasons.

For the life of me I cannot make sense of the supposed ST prowess he exhibits. Nothing at all in preseason, save for a fumble that popped into a team mates hands, and certainly nothing as a pro or even at UMass. Not a returner, not a gunner or up back either. Probably why he didn't make the 53. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Jabber Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Thought Ateman and Johnson looked good in the preseason.

I have always like him, another Florida prospect now on our team. He had a very unusual injury right about the combine so he missed it, had he gone he would have probably been about a 6-7th rounder as it was he went undrafted. Big guy, in his senior year allowed just one sack in 343 pass attempts. Has limited athleticism but can move in and play guard. If Shorter made the team we could have three of their offensive starters from last year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the Bills placed Barkley on season-ending IR yesterday. They can release him with an injury settlement, but then they are barred from signing him for 6 weeks AFTER the # of weeks in the injury settlement. PRETTY SURE that includes a signing to the PS Edited August 30, 2023 by Beck Water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing at all in preseason, save for a fumble that popped into a team mates hands, and certainly nothing as a pro or even at UMass. Not a returner, not a gunner or up back either. Probably why he didn't make the 53. True, but he's also shown pretty much nothing as a receiver, both with the Cardinals and in this preseason. I don't mind him being on the practice squad - he's fast even by NFL standards, and fast guys have some value even when they can't really play. (See also Foster, Robert.) But I never bought the training camp hype for a second. I think part of the problem was that once he got a positive review in a couple of camp reports, fans (who've heard of him, and find they're rooting for him even if they can't put their finger on why) started tweeting at reporters asking about Isabella. From there, reporters started asking about Isabella in press conferences with McDermott & Allen. The answers were pretty standard generically positive stuff, but gave the reports some positive-sounding quotes to include in their articles, tweets, etc. Then the fans read the articles and become convinced that 1.) Isabella was charging up the depth chart, and 2.) Isabella would immediately be signed by another team if we cut him. On the PS front itself, I'm happy about the Kirksey signing. He takes one of our 6 veteran spots, but won't be there for long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it's 6 weeks, and just to be clear the Bills haven't indicated an injury settlement with Barkley. So the earliest Bills could resign Barkley would be injury settlement weeks + 6 weeks, 10 weeks in your example.
