Deep2Moulds46 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 They're not going to cut two players they have projected as starters. Ellison has been in sole possession of the first team reps at SLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellison has been in sole possession of the first team reps at SLB Probably not, but as i stated surprise cuts. If you could pick a few who would they be?

12Kachy Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 As long as we sound crazy, TO. But really, one of the WRs or CBs we have and maybe Ko Simpson. He is expendable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDaDdy Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Probably not, but as i stated surprise cuts. If you could pick a few who would they be? Jonathan Stupar. Technically it would be a surprise because what team cuts it's best looking most productive TE? Other surprise cut is Chris Kelsay. Not sure what we could use the money on but he is a waste of it.

I would love to hear what everyone else feels may be a cut that will shock us all. Why do people keep thinking we are going to cut Schobel. Where is the logic in keeping Kelsay and getting rid of him? Ellison I am on the fence about. Maybe one more year and give it to Nic Harris.

I would love to hear what everyone else feels may be a cut that will shock us all. First, Schobel would not have started the last game if he were to be cut. Second, if he's not in the Bills plans, he'd be traded first. He's not going to be cut or traded. My "surprise" cut? Walker. Not this week, but as soon as Bell is healthy. Only a surprise as he was expected to take over the LT position, and did a fairly good job last season when Peters was a no show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are not enough experienced linemen on the roster to do it this season, but I agree with you about this. He will be gone by opening game next season unless he plays well at LT.

Typical TBD Guy Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I seriously doubt there will be any surprise cuts this year (unless you count McIntyre, Jenkins, Bryan, Corto, Simpson, or Lankster as surprises). Remember that Pen!s Jauron, already conservative by nature, is on the hot seat and will want to go to battle with as many familiar vets as possible. Here's my latest roster prediction: K(1): Rian Lindell P(1): Brian Moorman LS(1): Garrison Sanborn QB(3): Trent Edwards, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Gibran Hamdan RB(4): Marshawn Lynch, Fred Jackson, Dominic Rhodes, Xavier Omon WR(6): Terrell Owens, Lee Evans, Josh Reed, Roscoe Parrish, Steve Johnson, James Hardy TE(4): Derek Schouman, Derek Fine, Shawn Nelson, Jonathan Stupar T(3): Langston Walker, Brad Butler, Demetrius Bell G(3): Eric Wood, Adam Levitre, Kirk Chambers C(2): Geoff Hangartner, Seth McKinney DE(5): Aaron Schobel, Chris Kelsay, Ryan Denney, Aaron Maybin, Chris Ellis DT(4): Marcus Stroud, Kyle Williams, Spencer Johnson, John McCargo OLB(4): Kawika Mitchell, Keith Ellison, Nic Harris, Alvin Bowen MLB(2): Paul Posluszny, Marcus Buggs CB(5): Terrence McGee, Leodis McKelvin, Drayton Florence, Ashton Youboty, Reggie Corner SS(2): Bryan Scott, John Wendling FS(3): Donte Whitner, George Wilson, Jairus Byrd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff28 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Hardy stays on PUP and Jenkins stays for at least 6 weeks.

I do not know the answer to this so te ret of the bills board may chime in... When does Walker get paid I know it is each game but is there not a roster bonus? Anyway They are not going to cut him they may bench him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be gone by opening game next season unless he plays well at LT. Why wouldn't he just go back to his regular position, RT? As for Ellison, no her won't get cut. Why would anyone cut a quality back-up that comes cheap? I'm guessing Simpson and Denney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clippers of Nfl Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 i would make stupar our #1 tight end in the depth chart. our 4th round tight end would be our #2. fine and shoeman or whatever their names are arent impressive. so my surprise is that they leave stupar on practice squad even though he should be our #1 what do u guys think about that? stupar? go bills!

Dwight Drane Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Hardy stays on PUP and Jenkins stays for at least 6 weeks. I agree...and I can see Fine getting stashed as well. Stupar adds too much in the passing game to let go at this point. I can see a BIG battle in the coaches room between cutting Copeland Bryan or Ellis. If they think Maybin can contribute as at least a 3rd down sub.....Jauron will want Bryan on the team. Ellis is the same mold as Maybin with 70% of the pure talent and work ethic from what I can tell. I think Lankster is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoner7 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Ko Simpson, Kelsay, D.Florence, Mcintrye, Oman to waivers/PS untill they can cut Rhodes once Lynch is back, and I think you also see them keep 4 TEs, maybe put one on PS but they wont cut any of the 4 top guys.

Paup 1995MVP Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 As long as we sound crazy, TO. But really, one of the WRs or CBs we have and maybe Ko Simpson. He is expendable. I would cut Donte Whitner. He makes absolutely no plays. It is mind boggling how we could have taken such a mediocre player with the 8th pick who is also very marginal athletically as well. He plays WAY too far from the line of scrimmage and can not close on the ball quickly. The Steelers last week hit several 15-20 yard passes over the middle because Whitner was not closing fast on the receiver. I don't think he would start on most teams. But looking at our safeties, they really are not very stellar in the least. I hope that Byrd can really step up and play. I would also cut Schouman and play Stupar and Nelson as our top two TE's. Has anyone else noticed that Schouman and Fine have been consistently injured since entering the league? What is wrong with them? They are always HURT. We have some top end talent at skill positions, but our second tier guys are pretty marginal when you look across the board. We need so much more production from safety and tight end. Hopefully, Byrd is a much better Whitner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Simpson has to go. I have watched him play some and he seems very tennative this preseason. Ellsion is not going anywhere.

Hopefully, Byrd is a much better Whitner. It's awfully hard to make big plays when you play in a scheme that relies on the safeties to cover a deep half of the field, much less on a team with zero pass rush. Whitner starts most plays 20+ yards from the LOS, what exactly do you want him to do against the short passing game? Put him on a defense like Pittsburgh, Baltimore, New England, or the Giants and you'd hear his name come up every week...of course, you could say that about a lot of guys (Jim Leonard, anyone?).

Erik Flowers Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Don't forget that Lynch doesn't count against the 53 man roster until after week 3. Denney is a goner, Kelsay will stay. Lankster stays, either florence or your booty is a goner. I'm worth millions is also probably a goner, as he sucks on ST. I think Fine may be goner as well, but I think they should keep him over schouman. They are the same player, but fine is an inch or two taller and weighs another 20 pounds. For some reason, the coaching staff is enamored with schouman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
