Who gets the axe?


Recommended Posts

Torbor will be our 80th signing out of 87 players (7 draft picks unsigned)

 

Who gets the axe?

 

1. Keith Ellison LB

 

2. Felton Huggins WR

 

3. Michael Matthews TE

 

4. Brett Johnson S

 

5. Sean Allen OL

 

6. Cordaro Howard OL

 

7. Will Croner DE

 

Thoughts?

 

I'd say Matthews and Johnson might have a shot at making the roster, the rest will be gone.

Brohm!

 

Schobel (retirement or release)

Mitchell (hunch)

Ellison

Fitzpatrick

Corto

Whitner (trade)

Lynch (trade)

Roosevelt

 

I think these are the biggest names that are going to either get cut, or traded, or possibly retire.

Matthews could make the team as a blocking TE, otherwise they'll all be cut.

I think Brown would be more likely to be dropped and signed to squad than Fitz. I would also like to see Roosevelt make the team, but I really have no idea how he's doing trying to adjust to the pros

Roster will be at limit

Chris Brown

When Bills LB Reggie Torbor signs his contract the team will be at its offseason roster limit.

 

Offseason rosters can have no more than 80 players under contract on their roster. Torbor will be the 80th player when he officially signs early this week.

 

Buffalo has 87 total players, but seven of their draft choices remain unsigned. When the next draft choice is signed the Bills will need to make a roster move to avoid having more than the maximum number allowed.

 

I'll go with;

 

Sargent

McCargo

Manalac

Fitzpatrick

Simpson

Guerra

Ferguson

 

Just based on gut feeling.

I'd love to see Roosevelt make the team. Not that it means too much but Roosevelt had a couple nice catches during Saturday's open practice.

I actually like Sean Allen. I doubt he'll make the team but I see him sticking around for a couple years Practicing Squading.

Unless I'm mistaken (and I don't think I am in this case), the practice squad is assembled after the final cuts.

 

So all the posts speculating that certain players will land on the practice squad may eventually be correct.

 

But any player cut right now to stay within the 80 player restriction (as we sign our draft picks) are free to sign with any team.

 

They can't be placed on the practice squad for a few more months.

Also, this exercise can't be done without looking at the entire roster:

Also the draftees yet to be signed and their position:

 

Spiller, C.J. RB

 

Troup, Torell DT

 

Carrington, Alex DE

 

Easley, Marcus WR

 

Moats, Arthur LB

 

Brown, Levi QB

 

Calloway, Kyle OT

Johnson's a keeper. Then we'll have a Wang on offense and a Johnson a defense.

 

You can never have too many pricks on a team! :wallbash:

Spiller, C.J. RB > Have only 5 RBs including Lynch, need that many for training camp, cut FB Rodney Ferguson (can use an H-back instead)

 

Troup, Torell DT > Have only 3 NTs, cut TE Joe Klopfenstein leaving 4 TEs

 

Carrington, Alex DE > cut Will Croner DE

 

Easley, Marcus WR > Have 10 WRs, cut Felton Huggins (Easley was a very good special teams player in college)

 

Moats, Arthur LB > Have 14 LBs, cut Ryan Manalac or Mike Wright

 

Brown, Levi QB > May be cut. Thought I remember Gailey saying they might only bring 3 QBs to camp

 

Calloway, Kyle OT > cut one of the 16 offensive linemen
