They have to get down to 75 tomorrow by 4:00 PM Eastern. Who goes first?
BillsFanThru-N-Thru Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Seems pretty easy to me: Chris Gragg and Dowling,Jonathan (IR) Cuts Lucas,Marquis T Renfrow,Justin T Colter,Kain WR Mundine,Jimmay TE Ta'amu,Alameda DT Edwards,Lavar DE Deaderick,Brandon DE Lattimore,Jamari LB Striker,Eric LB Seamster,Sammy DB Moore,Sterling DB Ferguson,Reid LS
BuffaloFan68 Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 I thought Biermann looked terrible against the Skins - burned around the edge all day long.
Doc Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 According to BB.com, the roster is at 86. I think Striker, Moore, and Deaderick survive another week.

I thought Biermann looked terrible against the Skins - burned around the edge all day long. Haven't seen that game yet. It's on tomorrow at 1:00. Wonder if I get to finish it before The Bills hand in their cuts... though they're usually not handing in their list very early.
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 No way Lavar Edwards gets cut now. Staff loves him I thought Biermann looked terrible against the Skins - burned around the edge all day long. Agreed, makes me wonder whether he makes the final roster.

Edwards was lauded by Rex as once of the SJF standouts. No way he gets released before Tuesday.
Doc Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Gragg won't be cut in the moves to get to 75 because they would have to expose him to the waiver wire. Edwards was lauded by Rex as once of the SJF standouts. No way he gets released before Tuesday. He meant he'll be put on IR, removing him from the active roster. And I forgot about Edwards standing out. Replace Deaderick with him.

26CornerBlitz Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Gragg is going on IR Eventually he will. He meant he'll be put on IR, removing him from the active roster. And I forgot about Edwards standing out. Replace Deaderick with him. That came out wrong. He'll be put on the IR list, but I think that will happen in the cut down to 53 so that they won't have to waive him injured first.
Doc Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Eventually he will. He'll go on there before Tuesday at 4 PM. Leaves a roster space for someone else.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 He'll go on there before Tuesday at 4 PM. Leaves a roster space for someone else. I believe they would have to designate him as waived-injured first as they did with IK.
Doc Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 I believe they would have to designate him as waived-injured first as they did with IK. Why? I assume they want to keep him, unlike IK.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Why? I assume they want to keep him, unlike IK. It's a procedural technicality in the cut down before the final one to 53. I could be wrong on this, but I don't believe so.
Doc Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 It's a procedural technicality in the cut down before the final one to 53. I could be wrong on this, but I don't believe so. So this is a special thing for pre-season?
26CornerBlitz Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 So this is a special thing for pre-season? To my understanding. Yes.
JM57 Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) So this is a special thing for pre-season? Players with 4 years or less of experience have to go through waivers before IR in the pre-season. That's why IK was waived/injured. It's also why Ragland is still counting toward the 90 man limit, they're holding off on him to IR until the cut to 53. Edited August 28, 2016 by JM57
Doc Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 Interesting. Thanks. I assume then that Gragg will be waived and Ragland will be kept on the roster and then IR'd once the season starts.
Hardcore Bills Fan Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 in a shocking move i think Trianor gets cut
