Well yeah, don’t really expect them to pick up Micah Parsons. 

Or Trey Hendrickson.

[Logic]

Well look at that.

Jordan Poyer on the practice squad.

Almost like there was no reason to panic and sling mud for 15 pages.

Still have an open spot with Clayton, Franklin starts on the PS so no corresponding move. Rumors of a DB and a DE on X being the 17th. DE makes more sense since they don’t have one currently 

That's a pretty damn solid PS.

The PS should play the other team’s PS in flag football the night before the real game.

This would be a shadow league, and don’t think people wouldn’t watch.

I was thinking the same thing, 👍

 

It’s not far fetched to say that a number of those guys could be starting on other NFL rosters.

Imagine Jordan Phillips running a go route. I would pay to see that.

We do have an extra spot on the PS that we didn't use, thanks to Clayton's IPP exempt status. That said, there's now been two players that have been said to be added. Either they changed their mind on one, or someone's exiting the Squad in quick fashion:

And that is how the Olympic flag football team is selected.

No KJ Hamler is disappointing

 

It’s not surprising to me…unless he was a lights-out returner I always had difficulty envisioning his role on this team.  I guess he’s kinda fast, but what does he give the offense that is unique?

I’m not seeing any verification on either of these guys.

That's fair.

I would have preferred adding a Kicker to the PS.  If Bass' groin flares up then they could elevate someone for game day.  With the ability to elevate players for game day the PS has a little more value than it did in the past.

Bass had “pelvic soreness” not a groin injury, and I don’t think carrying a K on the PS is a very good use of that tool.  There are plenty of kickers out there who can get ready in a week if somebody gets hurt.

Nothing.  The best thing he has going is his personality.  He was a celeb on Hard Knocks.  The problem was his hands are brutal.  He was dropping passes left and right on last night's episode.  And that was pretty much it.  He knew it too.  Nice guy.  At least he can keep riding his scooter.

I hope its Hardy.  No way he belongs on an NFL field the way he played in the preseason.  Good to get some new blood in from other teams.  Lets go Jalen Kimber.

He's not even "bippity bippity bop" practice squad material.

Can’t verify it.

I feel bad for Hamler as he seemed like a great guy who loved being part of the Bills, but he has had two years to make his case and they must feel he is topped out.  Time to give someone else a chance there.  Same for Davidson really.  He did not show improvement this camp, and in fact, the opposite overall.  New Blood time.  Neither was surprising.  

[GASabresIUFan]

Which of the guys on this list might actually help the Bills this season?  I can see Gore helping in a pinch; possibly Logue, but the rest seem like cannon fodder.  Jackson, Phillips and Poyer are done as NFLers.  
 

I’ll revise this post and add I think Green and Feeney would be adequate fill ins on the line if pressed into service.
