I am guessing Hopkins might see injured reseve if he is not back in say 4 games. Opens up a roster spot.....

Brooks has some skills, he hits, and has ball skills. But, his speed and cover ability are suspect. Last year against Indy, Ty Hilton left him in the dust, Brooks cannot run with the burners. So, I look for this to be trouble...not saying I have a better answer, just that the Pats will make use of that situation I am afraid. Brooks reminds me of a young Drayton Florence. (who the Bills cut because he was getting burned to often)

Hmmmmm, now I see why there was no deal. If this impacts his year substantially, he will come cheaper next year. Whatley may be on top of this one after all.

But, Duke Williams is the worst safety I have ever seen in Buffalo, need to dump him quick. Don't understand him on the roster.

Worst idea I have ever heard!

Practice squad, perhaps. Only 50 worth paying, I guess. Duke Richardson is terrible, worse than the Ko Simpson debacle of a few years ago. Can't believe he made the team....I watched him in detail on Thursday night (was there) and he can't cover, hit, or even find the field......

Can't believe Duke Williams made the team. He was the worst DB on the field Thursday night. But, he must be cheap....all I can figure.

Duke Williams was so bad last night, he just has to go. Lost in space out there, didn;t do a thing. Back to Nevada Duke! I would use that slot to carry an extra reciever, and mute some of the debate being posted here. Hogan is a special teams player, not a huge receiving threat. A second coming of Tasker, almost. Easley has looked good, lets keep the dude. Kaufmann to the Practice squad...he can play too. Byrd injury....more negotiating bs. You get a big contract and come in out of shape.....starting to feel like Jason Peters all over again. Speculation can end tomorrow, and we can move to second guessing. Oh well.

Well, I was at the game, saw the results and the stats. But, I have to say, Leinart has a better arm than anybody on the team right now. Buffalo has not had an arm that can throw the long pass like leinart in a long time. The throw to Goodwin when he got hurt was better than anything a Bills QB has thrown in 5 years, at least. Having said that, I don't know what Marrone will do. I, myself, would keep Leinart. Lewis is cheaper, and it might carry the day....but, he can't roll left effectively....right roll only. And, comparted to Leinart, he has a pop gun arm. Oh well

At least the Bills did get one undrafted free agent that made the team....his name is Tuel.

A lot of what the Pats will see has not been shown in preseason. Tuel will handle it if he has to start. Tuel has nothing to lbe afraid of, nobody thought he would be where he is today. If he is the backup, he will also be ready. Look for Leinart to be #3 against the Pats, unless they decide to go with the guy from Detroit. (he might be cheaper, anyhow) Leinart never made it in the league, hard to figure, he was all world at US C. If he has better attitude now, he might be another Kurt Warner late bloomer. Warner kicked around for quite a few years before becoming the SB QB he was.

I wonder if the Bills changed the plays in the second half of the Washington game because they did not have another Q B on thr bench. Maybe.

McKelvin is the best in the league at this skill. I hate using him like that, but breaking one is always big. Actually, the coaches and McKelvin need to decide together what to do. I think we see him some, but not all the time. Share the duty. Likely see him late in close games (if there are any)

Byrd wants his money, he does not care where he plays, he is a pro.

But, we failed to take 4QB's to camp......rookie GM and rookie HC.....especially when they are running the ball with the read option!!! This isn't a bad break, its a brain cramp on the part of the Bills leadership!!!!

Ahhh, the joys of having a both a rookie General Manager and rookie head coach who went to camp with three QB's. Incompetant leadership at One Bills Drive.....whats new folks. I guess the only new thing is we can now blame Brandon, since Mr Wilson is retired.

With all the cute remarks here, I am putting a depressingly serious thought on here. This is a General Manager mistake, complicit with the head coach. WHY were there only three QB's in camp? Answer.....save a few bucks...should have been a fourth who at least knew the playbook at this point. From the coaches point of view...more reps for those left on the roster. But, both GM and coach are rookies. So, the Bills will pay for having a rookie GM and a rookie Head Coach. And they will pay big, we are now officially in the Clowney derby. These are mental errors on the part of the Bills management, we are used to that. I thought that a new QB should have been signed when Manuel went down....but, still saving bucks then. Wahley did not make the calls until after the game yesterday. To little, to late. Way to late.

The staff will decide, and, if we are smart, we will not look back and second guess. Especially if one of the cuts lands elsewhere and does well.

Actually, you don't want your starters returning kicks....injury considerations. Goodwin is a better choice because of depth at WR (never thought I'd say that) We are thin at CB, and as good as McKelvin is at returns, we need him worse as a healthy CB.

Haven't really seen the O in action......not one long pass. that has to be in there to provide the balance for the recievers to get open short. The D looks OK so far, but the DB's have to hold up. McKelvins injurt recovery worries me...there is no other #2 with the physical skills. Brooks is a step slow, but a hitter. Searcy can't cover (or Williams for that matter), but he (they) are hitters, and will get their share of turn overs off fumbles, I think. (I am thinking of Leonard Smith, I can't be the only one out there that remembers our big hitting safety of the 80's) Rogers is below average, maybe one of the others can do some good (Butler, maybe) I like Robey's quickness, but he is really small. (I do remember Tony Green, a small package who could really play)

A suspension only occurs if you are still on a team. Marrone may just shove him out the door for stupidity.

Bradham's worst problem will be Marrone.......if what he told DeRick is correct, Nigel will be history.

If the knee does not come around, there will be another QB in the mix......to man the 3rd QB position on opening day. Maybe Brad Smith, maybe somebody else. Believe me, this is a topic of conversation at 1BD.

I brought in a mesh back support. They security guy looked at me funny and I looked right back at him.....neither of us said a word, and I got my back support into the game. My clear plastic bag, which I have had for years for a game bag had a radio with headset and my glasses in it, no problem there either. Of course, my grey hair usually causes them to cut me some slack. Good luck to all dealing with this idiotic mess of rules.

Hogan is like the second coming of Tasker.
