Saint Doug Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Probably no takers. Teams are getting very stingy with their picks nowadays - even 4th or 5th rounders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djcalvin79 Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Probably no takers. Teams are getting very stingy with their picks nowadays - even 4th or 5th rounders. firstly, shame on the Bills for trying to trade a game breaker & starting position maker like Roscoe secondly, shame on the rest of the teams for not recognizing this and refusing to pony up even a 4th rounder. hey what do you know, maybe Bellicheat will come up with some sort of offer for him and we'll be stupid enough to give Roscoe away too!

Don't worry, if Roscoe is on the official "salary dump" list, he will get dumped, sooner or later. The season doesn't start for 5 more months, plenty of time to snag that 6th or 7th rounder for him.

The season doesn't start for 5 more months, plenty of time to snag that 6th or 7th rounder for him. That is a terrible truism. I like Roscoe he shows up for work, works hard, and is the single best guy at his position in the universe. Why is a mystery, but, we will dump him, it seems like the word has come down to Brandon who will again toss Ralph's salad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Perhaps the Bills got smart and realized that it would be foolish to trade him . . . especially at the reported asking price. I hope that is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBlood Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 alright so lets say we do keep him who gets cut then? We can all agree that Justin Jenkins is a gonner so if Roscoe stays that would leave u with 1a. Evans 1b. T.O. 3. Reed 4. Roscoe 5a. Johnson 5b. Hardy Do we really keep 6 WRs? We drafted some versitile OL thsi year so maybe they plan on keeping one less hog up front so be able to hold onto 6 WRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they justify keeping Roscoe as a Special teamer not a receiver, and maybe find a long snapper somewhere else on the team?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. T Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Hate to say it, Reed walks the plank maybe. Or Hardy. Or they justify keeping Roscoe as a Special teamer not a receiver, and maybe find a long snapper somewhere else on the team?? Reed is not going anywhere! The man has become the most dependable, most all-around (blocking) wr on the team. Hardy is safe for at least 1 more year, teams don't give up on a 2nd rounder that soon. If anyone other than Parrish, it could be Johnson. Everyone on this board raves about him, but he hasn't had enough action to prove himself yet. However, Johnson has much more to grow as a wr, Parrish is what he is, a great return guy with other great return guys on the team (McKelvin, McGee). Sorry, but it appears Parrish is the odd man out.

OK, let's get one thing straight, most NFL teams have more than 5 wide receivers on the roster. There's no magic line that says the Bills have to cut someone. Hardy might not even be ready to go at the beginning of the season, so what's the plan, go in with 4 receivers and an injured Hardy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they justify keeping Roscoe as a Special teamer not a receiver, and maybe find a long snapper somewhere else on the team?? You are either smoking crack or you havn't been keeping up. Reed isn't going anywhere, he is a player that is on the rise, and will end up being one of our more valuable offensive players this year. I wouldn't be surprised if he led the team in receptions this year, with Evans and T.O getting a lot of the attention. Reed in my view will end up being an upper echelon slot receiver in this league. In regards to keeping 6 WR's, I think it is a very distinct possibility. If the rumours are true, and that we will be going with a 1 back alignment this year, then that very well could mean that we may not keep any FB's on the roster. In essence there would be an additional roster spot, and the WR spot could be the beneficiary of that move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 firstly, shame on the Bills for trying to trade a game breaker & starting position maker like Roscoe This is the mistake Cutler made: thinking that any player is above a trade discussion. I'm a big Parrish fan, and hope he remains a Bill in 2009. But Brandon and company should be looking at ANY possibility to improve the team. I'd say "shame on the Bills" if they weren't entertaining offers. With that said, the notion he is still a Bill because there wasn't interest is likely absurd, as well. I'm guessing there were offers, but they weren't good enough for the Bills, and didn't improve the team. Obviously, Parrish isn't going to command a high draft pick, and anything less than a 3rd rounder is simply not good enough to make the deal. If the Bills deal Parrish, it should be for a player that will make a difference/impact on the field, in 2009, IMO. You know Parrish will be making an impact on the field for whatever team gets his services, even if they only use him on ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
