Doc Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 The Bills kept 10 LB's last year. With Torbor getting injured and White not looking so hot last night and having a great chance to clear waivers and make the PS, I see them keeping 9 LB's (Merriman, Kelsay, Barnett, Davis, Sheppard, Morrison, Coleman, Batten, and Moats). And along with White, I see Eddins making the PS.
Chandler#81 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Batten is gone Moats stays. What?? I'm not a bettin' man, but I'll bet the house this ain't happening.
Doc Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 What?? I'm not a bettin' man, but I'll bet the house this ain't happening. I'd bet jboyst's farm it ain't happening.
Chandler#81 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 I'd bet jboyst's farm it ain't happening. Way to go out on a limb, Doc-TOR!
BuffalOhio Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Batten is gone Moats stays. Don't want to lose Moats, but NO WAY IN HELL they cut Batten. Dude's a beast and was all over the field making PLAYS all preseason.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 My guess on cuts: Moats, Jasper, Scott, Easley, Hangartner, S. Nelson, Torbor. Since Torbor is already on season-ending IR, isn't he already outside the roster? I think it's far too early to cut Moats and Easley. Moats has been injured, but he showed promise on special teams and in some game action last year. Remember Stillers LB U claims it takes 3 years to graduate a decent reliable LB. White far more likely to get cut and signed to the PS. Easley - he needs to really work on his hands and focus, but he's shown more than Buster Davis or Ruvell Martin IMO. They go before he goes. Batten is gone Moats stays. No way Batten is gone. Again, 3 years to develop a linebacker and he's showing flashes to look like a beast.
BobChalmers Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Batten is gone Moats stays. That's just crazy-talk. Batten has been playing with the 2's and sometimes the 1's. He's currently the #3 overall OLB on the team behind Merriman and Kelsay. No way in Hades does Batten get cut. Moats has barely been getting playing time with the 3's and been outplayed by Coleman. It's not hard to figure out who's staying and who's probably gone. Easley isn't going anywhere - at some point this year that's your #2 WR, friends. Davis is gone.
BuffaloFan68 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Easley will end up being one of out top receivers if not the best. We could cut Thigpen now and we will be a better team without him. There is still too much upside to Levi to let him go.
CBD Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 That's a simple statement to make but a difficult one to be so sure on. Do you agree they keep 8-9 LB's? Who goes so Moats makes the team? I have: Davis Merriman Sheppard Barnett Batten Carrington Kelsay and Coleman and Morrison Count Carrington as a Dlineman, keep Coleman, Morrison, & Moats. Merriman, Kelsay, Batten, Coleman, Moats, Barnett, Davis, Morrison, Sheppard. 9
bigc14120 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Well, I was at the game last night.....Coleman is a big lb, and has the moves, he stays. LB White...say a couple of great special teams efforts by him...might make the 54 roster because of that role. RB White...yeh, the 2nd line, but he did not look like an NFL rb to me....I say...cut....looks slow to me. Buster Davis....caught a buch of balls...but looks lost out there for a man in his 5? year. R Martin....same Aiken looked OK..ps Shep looked like a pro, Morrison also OK. Moats? I don't know...something not right there in his move to the inside lb role. To slow to be an outside guy? Don't know. The lb core is rebuilt....I see Wannestad influence in shelling out some bucks to get real players. Team will be much better for it. The prior non-players will be gone..(Moats?) It seed like they decided to showcase Buster Davis...to see if he could do it. I like Easley better, more upside and smoother with his moves.
EasternOHBillsFan Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Moats, Jasper, Scott, Easley, Hangartner, S. Nelson, Torbor. Torbor would have to be released under an injury settlement, and I don't see it ending that way.
disco Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 That's just crazy-talk. Batten has been playing with the 2's and sometimes the 1's.

It's not hard to figure out who's staying and who's probably gone. Easley isn't going anywhere - at some point this year that's your #2 WR, friends. Davis is gone. It is crazy talk. But the thing is, as your #1 Moats fan, I can't find any other way to make the team. I don't actually want Batten cut, he's looked great. Just in disbelief that as good as Moats looked at OLB last year, we moved him inside and suddenly he's on the cut bubble.
Thoner7 Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 There is still too much upside to Levi to let him go. Which is why they let him go last season
