The Buffalo Bills got it right; WR Tyrell Shavers makes 53-man roster

Shavers headlines Bills initial 53-man roster
‘The biggest question of the summer is answered. The Bills keep six wide receivers, with Shavers, Samuel, and Moore rounding out the group. Shavers absolutely did enough on the field and his expansion on special teams solidifying his value. We know about Samuel’s contract and I genuinely believe the Bills still have faith they can get the return on investment they envisioned when signing him a year ago. Moore flashed early, but was more of the guy on the bubble than Shavers. None of those cut ever really pushed to be part of that group. Wilkerson was the best of that bunch and would be a great addition to the PS.’

Roundtable: What to expect from the Bills' cutdown day
‘Linebacker Jimmy Ciarlo. The Bills’ depth at linebacker isn’t particularly strong, and the need for players who can contribute on special teams is a big one. Ciarlo checks both of those boxes. He’s looked good in the preseason and has the leadership qualities you’d expect from a former team captain at Army.’
Michael Hoecht used Bills' preseason finale to prepare for suspension and guide young players
‘“He’s a rock star,” Ciarlo said of Hoecht. “He’s one of those guys who just fights day in and day out. … To be able to line up next to him, it’s almost a comfort, in a way.”’
