‘"It’s better to walk away one or two years early than to limp away one or two years late,’ " Ostroski said.’

‘How much longer Jackson and Fisher will remain teammates all depends. Maybe for another season, maybe for a scant few days.’

And I like Bledsoe’s weapons — Moulds, the rookie, Josh Reed, Jay Riemersma down the seam. Will the QB and the coordinator click? That’s the question. I think Gilbride is better working with established players than young ones. It’s not the offense I worry about with Buffalo, it’s that D-line.

‘He started 102 of 106 career games — 36 at right guard, 34 at center, 29 at right tackle and three at left guard.’

‘Bledsoe or no Bledsoe, the defense must dramatically improve for the Bills to have any shot at a playoff spot, and that’s too much to ask. The prediction: 6-10, and no playoffs for a third straight year.’

‘Though limited athletically, the popular 6-foot-3, 323-pound Ostroski leaves a legacy of toughness, versatility and loyalty to the Bills, who signed him to their practice squad in 1993 after Kansas City and Atlanta cut him.’

‘Though released by the Bills on Tuesday at the NFL’s mandatory roster cut to 65 players, Jackson has a chance of landing on the team’s practice squad next week.’

The hangup for Jammer, Sims and McKinnie seems to be the contract the Bills worked out with the No. 4 pick, Mike Williams. The deal has clauses and escapes the others all desire but there is no way the Chargers are going to surrender to those demands, and why should they?

Vic Carucci is only CBS expert (of 10) who predicts the Bills make the playoffs, even as a wild card team.

New England at Buffalo, Nov. 3 — Bills quarterback Drew Bledsoe gets to face his old team for the first time.

Bledsoe wasn’t exactly thrilled with the way he was treated at the end, forced to watch the Super Bowl as a spectator after years of good service, so he will be a little pumped.

With the final cut one week away, who do you see being the odd-man-out in the Buffalo backfield: Bryson or Morris. I would prefer to keep Bryson.

It’s an interesting situation in Buffalo, and I’m not sure what they’ll do. I know there are rumors that the Bills are simply waiting for a major-RB injury to try to trade Bryson, and that would seem to make the most sense, as they wouldn’t get anything for any of the other backs. i think you will see them keep all 4 RBs, shaking down this way on the depth chart: Henry, Bryson, Huntley, Morris. Morris is a very good special-teams player who they won’t just give away, and we know what Bryson can do after subbing in for Henry last season. Huntley has been solid in the preseason so far too, so they’re in good shape at RB.

In order to get to the 65-man roster limit, the Bills also designated defensive lineman Leif Larsen as waived-injured. He injured his groin earlier in camp.

‘"My mind and my heart still say play, but my knee says no," Ostroski said.’
