He’s a tricky one because he seems like the logical choice to get cut, but he has multiple years under Bills control … and there’s no guarantee Epenesa, Floyd and/or Lawson are back next year. 

Just remember this conversation. Jonathan will be a productive NFL lineman for us or someone else. Every time he sees the field he’s either pressuring he QB and forcing a throwaway or beating an O-lineman in his one on one battle. He just needs playing time.

He'll be cut in a month or two and back on the Bills' PS by mid-December

 

Or he plays well in Atlanta he earns a nice lil contract from Falcons.  Wish him well and yes if he gets cut likely gets offered a place on our ps again...

Jonathan would be signed elsewhere the second he was put on the practice squad.

Poona Ford. I would have done that in preseason.

 

This is disappointing, Ankou was a monster in preseason and clearly outplayed Ford.

I really do not mind these end of the roster guys. If we were ever at a point where we needed significant contributions out of them, season is probably doomed anyway.

The Bills are not cutting Jonathan IMO. I think they really like his upside and have a pretty stong belief he wouldn't make it through waivers.

I think this is the Bills' belief too. It happened last year with the Bears and he has some actual live snaps in games since then.

Jonathan is one-dimensional, upfield pass rusher. He gets demolished in the run game. He'll be dropped when Miller is activated (or Ford. Please Ford). Ankou was very good in his appearances against both run and pass.

Tre to IR leaves a spot on the 53 so no one needs to be moved.

Yeah, let's base all our roster decisions on preseason snaps...
