‘So that brings us to Shavers, who found himself in an eerily similar position last year. I thought he did enough to make the 53-man roster last year and feel the same way one year later. Quite frankly, his ridiculous one-handed touchdown sealed the deal. It was also important to see Shavers get some special teams reps in the preseason finale because if the team keeps six wide receivers, they’ll need someone to play on the coverage units for punts and kickoffs.’

Carucci Take 2: Bills’ backup defenders redeem themselves in preseason finale
‘Rookie tackle Deone Walker did a nice job of getting inside penetration as a pass rusher. Playing in the first half, he was credited with four tackles and a half-sack. Walker also showed improvement in his run-stuffing skills, making a big tackle for a loss. At 6-foot-7 and 331 pounds, he’s a massive force in the middle and must play that way consistently.’

Top 3 things we learned Bills at Buccaneers | Preseason Week 3
‘Buechele, who is a candidate to be Buffalo’s practice squad QB, delivered a razor-sharp performance, completing 25 of his 30 pass attempts for 278 yards and a touchdown. The 27-year-old QB looked like he was having fun and playing loose, particularly when plays broke down. Buechele made a number of plays with his feet to evade defenders and make throws outside the pocket; he also picked up 20 rushing yards, two of which resulted in first downs.’

‘”It’s been a roller coaster, but a blessing. It’s been fun. I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. I’m happy that I came here. I’m happy I started my career here and that I’ve been here. I wouldn’t want it any other way, honestly,” shared Shavers.’

This Bills longshot no one took seriously is turning heads in Buffalo and on Hard Knocks
‘“At this point, I’m not too concerned with what the outcome is going to be,” Ciarlo said when asked about the impending roster cutdown next week. “I just want to put my best foot forward and work as hard as I can. Whatever the end result may be, I’m just thankful to be wearing an NFL uniform for the preseason because rewinding back to a few months ago when I was at home, I would have done anything just to be in the locker room for a day.”’
Bills bubble watch: 15 players in final fight for roster spot during preseason finale
‘Cutting Samuel outright would be a strain on the salary cap because of the dead money the Bills would have to eat. But they’ve eaten money before, and they could always do a restructure of another active contract to create the space to absorb the wasted money on Samuel. He has been a non-factor throughout the entirety of his Buffalo tenure dating back to last year so my guess is the Bills would be willing to trade him to a wide receiver-needy team if a reasonable deal can be had, but that’s probably unlikely because it’s hard to envision any team taking on his contract, so he’ll be on the team.’
