I don’t remember the details, but it seems like we were between a rock and a hard place.  Yeah, pretty much something like that. I think Hodgins had been on the 53-man for a couple weeks. Tre' White had his 3 week window opened but 4 or 5 weeks later was still not "ready to play". I forget the details but around that time Benford missed a couple games and Elam had an injury, they needed to roster another DB. So Hodgins got cut and subjected to waivers, and the Giants pounced.  Edited March 14 by Beck Water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 1 hour ago, Mat68 said: If your 5th or 6th wr doesn't play teams they dont dress and become a waste of a roster spot.  Hollins is a better wr.  He is also a better athlete and is significantly better as a run blocker and on special teams.   That was the argument in 2022...and by November, they were signing Cole Beasley and John Brown off the street to fill the depth roles because they were that desperate for competent WR play behind Diggs and Davis.  I'm not saying the Bills should bother bringing Hodgins back at this stage. I do think he was very likely a better value at the time, especially on a 6th round contract, than what they brought in for 2022 and 2023.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 At the time he was behind Shakir and Mckenzie and did not play teams.  That is why he was cut.  Hodgins on the roster wouldn't have stopped Brown and Beasley returning that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
