chris heff Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 I've heard others say the same, what is this based on? From what I heard and it sounds like you as well, he's shown nothing. Nothing. I did watch him a fair amount at FSU, he just always made plays. He's worth having on the PS.

Nothing. Â O'Leary was the Mackey award winner and deserved to be so. As an FSU guy who's seen nearly all their games for a while, he always made big plays, tough catches, etc. Â The guy I've heard about in Bills' practices, and seen in pre-season games doesn't look like the same guy. Big disappointment, but he showed too much in college not to give him a good long chance to catch up. Â OTOH - I am astonished at how well Karlos Williams has been doing. I thought he was a possible bust - great athlete but seemed very raw as a runner, terrible at finding the hole, etc. Not surprising for a kid who switched from Safety to RB just a couple of years ago, but I'm glad to see I was wrong about him (or he's improved a lot)!

JM57 Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 That's what she said! Â He's a father of 3 born just over 15 months apart...apparently that's NOT what she said. Watch out Travis Henry, Karlos Sr's comin for ya

Bob i respect your posts and take consideration to your words. Â O Leary needs time. lets hope he sucked bad enough to not get picked up. lol In the olden days he might be good enough make the roster even though he showed badly, so thats a plus right! he might be overwhelmed by the speed and complexity of the NFL? Â But about Karlos. lets just keep our hats upon our heads for now shall we please? he has barely played and against scrubs in a vanilla scrum or two. and he has been injured most of the preseason. with a mystery ailment. Â But honestly he might have something if he works hard.

Nothing.Ya, regarding O'Leary...Gragg and Gray are better. I don't see O'Leary ever getting above them or Clay on the depth chart this year or next or maybe ever. And, Mulligan is a totally different skill set. I would be fine letting the project go. It's not B.C he was poor, but, because TWO others got better and will continue to do so!! Isn't it nice when coaching improves offensive players?! Instead of regressing them. Sorry had to toss that in. Edited September 9, 2015 by Manther
26CornerBlitz Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 @BuffaloBillsPR The #Bills have signed CB Merrill Noel to the team's practice squad and released QB Alex Tanney.
TheFunPolice Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 @BuffaloBillsPR The #Bills have signed CB Merrill Noel to the team's practice squad and released QB Alex Tanney. Â The Bills are just teasing me when it comes to Alex Tanney! lol
stevewin Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Â The Bills are just teasing me when it comes to Alex Tanney! lol What a roller coaster for those guys who bounce around practice squads
GG Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 What a roller coaster for those guys who bounce around practice squads  Tanney should be used to bounces by now.
Cash Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 I'm surprised they haven't added O'Leary to the practice squad. Has he cleared waivers yet?
26CornerBlitz Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 @JohnKryk #Bears sign ex-#Bills RB Bronson Hill to practice squad.
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Yeah, these guys do a good job racking up the Frequent Flyer Miles! Â What a roller coaster for those guys who bounce around practice squads
Matt in KC Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 @BuffaloBillsPR The #Bills have signed CB Merrill Noel to the team's practice squad and released QB Alex Tanney. Â Â Yeah, these guys do a good job racking up the Frequent Flyer Miles! Â Â I think that's the last time Alex will sign with the Bills. . . .
buffaloboyinATL Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Â Â Â I think that's the last time Alex will sign with the Bills. . . . until the next time we call... These guys will do whatever is necessary to try and get on an NFL roster. They do not hold grudges, it's a business.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Nick OLeary has cleared waivers and put on PS.
CountryCletus Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Nick OLeary has cleared waivers and put on PS. Love it
26CornerBlitz Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Nick OLeary has cleared waivers and put on PS. Who's out?
Kelly the Dog Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 Who's out? That was not made clear. Someone said that Reddick was not at practice yesterday and I didn't see a further explanation so not sure but it could be him. Noel was the replacement for Tanney.

He's likely out.
