Jeffery Lester Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 1. Whitner, 5million fish a year and he has just not earned it yet. 2. Butler, Right Tackle will be his last attempt to establish himself as a pro. (terrible IMO at right gurad last year) 3. Kelsay, although not really a surprise. 4. Roscoe, IMO the only person in this group who was productive last year. Will come down to WR # and money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 No way Whitner or Butler is released. Not sure where you are getting that Whitner make $5M per year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry base salary this year is 2,734,500, I might have elobarated a little too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach55 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I don't know what you are smoking... Butler is the most consistent lineman we've got. Whitner is a huge team leader and an anchor on the defense (overpaid... so far, but he may prove himself out this year). They would never cut Parrish - trade him yes, but not outright cut. He is the NFL's career best punt returner, he's worth at least a 4th rounder to some team. The only one I could see them cutting is Kelsay and that would be a cap cut.

nucci Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Sorry base salary this year is 2,734,500, I might have elobarated a little too much That's ok - I got your point. Still, barring injuries Whitner and Butler will be in the starting lineup opening day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 You are out of your mind. No way are Whitner or Butler even close to being on a cut list. Do you not listen and read? The coaches are very high on both players. Not to mention Butler was arguably the best lineman the Bills had last year. If you want realistic cut scenarios here you go: 1) Kelsey - non productive and a cap casualty 2) Justin Jenkins - too many at WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOBILLS78 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 None of the players listed will be cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fewell733 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I think we probably already had our surprise cut with Dockery. I guess there could be an outside chance of Kelsay, though I really really doubt it. Ko Simpson is a strong candidate for being a likely cut, but that's not really a shocker.

IMO Butler was consistent-ly bad. and Langston Walker was the best and most consistent lineman last year. Just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladiebla Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Jenkins making the roster would surprise me more tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numark Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I think jenkins will surely be cut. McCargo there is always a chance if he just does not do good at camps. A corner or two may be cut as well. The only big name that has an outside chance of being cut is Kelsay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanInSouthBuffalo Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 It's starting to become crowded in the secondary. Drayton Florence or Ashton Youboty Ko Simpson or John Wendling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Sorry base salary this year is 2,734,500, I might have elobarated a little too much elaborated? more like exagerrated. Also, Butler a bad gaurd? He was arguably our best lineman last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 IMO Butler was consistent-ly bad. and Langston Walker was the best and most consistent lineman last year. Just my opinion Congrats on being the only one who thinks Butler was bad last year. He was our most solid, and arguably our best lineman during last season. The run game went to hell when he was out of the lineup. Not to mention butler signed an extension last offseason. He isn't going anywhere. The only place he sucks is in your mind.

Chandler#81 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 1. Whitner, 5million fish a year and he has just not earned it yet.2. Butler, Right Tackle will be his last attempt to establish himself as a pro. (terrible IMO at right gurad last year) 3. Kelsay, although not really a surprise. 4. Roscoe, IMO the only person in this group who was productive last year. Will come down to WR # and money. Disagree with everyone here except -possibly- Kelsey. Then, only if someone else surprizingly steps up. My pick for surprize 'cut': Jauron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 It's starting to become crowded in the secondary. Drayton Florence or Ashton Youboty I can't see them cutting Youboty. IR is a completely different story though. Florence just has that Will James feel to me this year, so I could definitely see him sent packing.

The only one on the list that even has a chance to be cut.....maybe 10% Parrish. You just don't cut elite punt returners for the heck of it. Ko Simpson is my suprise cut...if that's even a surprise.
