Oh my god.

Shocked about Mancz. Wow. God our OLine depth is awful. I have to imagine what we'll be bringing in OLinemen. Edit: not that I liked our OLine depth prior to Mancz being cut.

That's fair. And I generally am. But he'd be replacing Hart or Van Roten, so....

I'm A-ok with that. I don't like our OLine depth outside of Q and Mancz

Keep Mancz and add Lindstrom.

I agree. His cut surprises me.

The amount of times I've called Cam Lewis "Cam Phillips" is almost medically alarming.

Noticed that too. He's got to be a lock for the team, so some practice players aren't making it. Van Roten? Cam Phillips? McCloud?

I know this is the common view of him, and certainly it was his reputation during his draft year (I loved his college tape), but I sure think Singletary runs with more power. The notable exception was the Pittsburgh game like two years ago to run out the clock in the 4th. I hope all the folks who are high on him (more than I expected) are right and he's been bogged down by injury.

I believe the idea of a Moss trade has been tossed around at OBD. Whether they find a team willing to make a trade worth it is another question.

Several options. Look at who they worked out today as examples.

These are different questions than the one you asked and I answered, to be fair.

Almost nothing. At this moment in time there was no viable alternative to their decision.

Stanford's stadium is partially buried and I absolutely love it.

I'm ready to give Shakir the punt return duties right now. And I can't wait to see him as a WR with Josh.

Not this again lol

Only thing that struck wrong. He just have said "what was best for all parties." Not sure why he kept putting it that way.

It's entirely plausible that down the road Ariza signs with another team (if and after legal matters resolve). I still couldn't hold it against the Bills. There was really no viable alternative for them right now.

Is beane joining? Seems like the right thing to do from a personal standpoint, though don't know what he could say

"Lead national NFL story"

Why on earth? He's an awful holder and fluky punter.

Well, sure. But the trick there is to find a way where he is officially "set aside" and not playing. It sounds like you think a suspension would do it. I think that requires a roster spot, but I could be mistaken. Either way it's not playing Ariza through litigation.

I feel for McD.

I'm not super interested in the tangential argument on here that seems to be dripping with pseudo-partisan culture war language. What I'm saying is the press that comes with this is untenable for a massive brand like the Buffalo Bills. To simply trot out Matt Araiza for the duration of this litigation is not an actual option. I think that notion is more of a hypothetical being used on a message board for folks (not necessarily you) to take their argument to the extreme.

You want him on the team until then? That's just not tenable. It's goes back to the "we don't live in a vacuum" thing. We can cut him, try to find an exemption like the commissioner's list, he can retire, but I don't see how in the world he can be a member of our normal roster or practice squad given the allegations (unless some massive piece of exonerating evidence emerges virtually immediately).
