eball Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Puts his spot on the roster in jeopardy for sure. Â Well, I think that's the question. Does it? Boobie is a proven ST demon and by all accounts a great teammate. Why keep Bryce Brown over him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why keep Bryce Brown over him? Agree. Brown is going to need a lights out preseason to earn a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why keep Bryce Brown over him? Â Monetarily, cutting Boobie would save the Bills more money then cutting Brown. They'd save roughly $2m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd really like to see Whaley deal Brown to the Texans for a pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K D Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 oops, I think Boobie is a goner now. that's sad, he brings a lot of spirit to the team and he's an above average special teams player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I agree, it isn't much but when you talk about having to re-sign guys like Bradham, who won't be the highest paid LB but will command a decent salary, $2m more could help. Â I still would take Boobie over Brown though, as you say he just contributes more on Special Teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I wonder if the Texans would rather trade us a pick for Brown than sign Pierre Thomas. I am leaning toward no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipster19 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I'm not a Bryce Brown fan but he does offer more than Dixon IMO. I agree that Williams makes Dixon even more expendable because of his ST play, besides Dixon was a FA while we actually traded for Brown. Unless we could trade Brown I would think that just cutting him would take a little shine off of Whaley, nobody likes to admit that they made a mistake. Add in the contracts and if there is any truth to Dixon being considerably more expensive than Brown than I would suspect that it's bye bye Boobie. Also, didn't Roman let Dixon just walk while they were in San Fran? I wonder about that as well, what's up with that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman probably what we saw last year that Boobie will never be a feature back in the NFL (not sure Bryce will be either) and while he does contribute on ST, ST isn't as vital as offense despite what some think here. That said I think Karlos Williams could replace both Boobie and Bryce Brown as he can contribute as RB, on ST and hopefully be the goal line back like he was in college in the NFL.

negativo Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 He'll probably be on the roster because of special teams, but this smells of the classic "muscle strain to get out of training camp conditioning" injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karlos Williams is showing he can be a younger and lower priced Boobie D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I will never get the Brown hype. But let the best players make the team. I hope it's Dixon because he seems like he loves being here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Are you sure about the money for Boobie? Over the Cap is usually good and they seemed to indicate that it would be more like $1.1M I'm cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
