Kirby Jackson Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 It is interesting timing, to release a player without news of an addition. Barnidge would be one heluva Maclin consolation prize. I'm trying to get an update on that situation now. Hopefully will have it in the next couple of hours.
Captain Murica Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Guess the new regime is sending a message...

26CornerBlitz Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 I'm trying to get an update on that situation now. Hopefully will have it in the next couple of hours. Maybe we'll find out when McDermott addresses the media: @JoeBuscaglia Three days of mandatory kinda sorta football begins today at One #Bills Drive. Practices open to the media. McDermott will talk at 11:15. Guess the new regime is sending a message... Annen was a long shot to make the roster.

26CornerBlitz Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 See above, it's really unlikely. They are VERY far apart on $. Yeah, I can easily see that being the case. I hope someone asks about the open roster spot and what the plans are for it.
GG Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Don't hold your breath (miles apart). Odd negotiating stance, unless he's ready to retire. He's been a FA for over a month, so that indicates his market value relative to his ask. And as we've seen from past history, guys balancing retirement vs last payday usually don't work out too well.

And as we've seen from past history, guys balancing retirement vs last payday usually don't work out too well. Actually, there's not much for him to gain by signing at this point. He'll have more leverage if he waits for an injury to a starter.

They just aren't in the same ballpark.
GG Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Actually, there's not much for him to gain by signing at this point. He'll have more leverage if he waits for an injury to a starter. I honestly don't think the dollars would be that much different in case of an injury. If his market now is vet minimum, I don't think teams will pony up a million more if there's an injury. And then there's the motivation issue about a bubble guy who's willing to hold out for money.
26CornerBlitz Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 @JonScottTV LeSean McCoy out today with stomach bug. Kyle Williams too w/ neck stiffness. Sammy Watkins limited this week. #Bills @JaySkurski Sean McDermott says the #Bills waiving Blake Annen isn't related to the team's potential interest in Gary Barnidge. @JoeBuscaglia #Bills HC Sean McDermott says he's impressed with the leadership intangibles that Tyrod Taylor has presented this offseason @ChrisBrownBills McDermott: I've been impressed w/Tyrod's leadership that's a must for QB pos. He's developed there. Offense not new to him. #Bills McDermott: Marcell has done great job of taking opportunity w/new staff and running with it. #Bills McDermott on plans for Z. Jones: Done nice job w/playbook. Zay has been hungry to learn. Knows inside & outside roles, options there. #Bills @JaySkurski Sean McDermott says the #Bills will limit Sammy Watkins' reps in practice today. "We're focused on getting him ready for training camp." @SalSports McDermott: "The nickel position is a starting position in our defense," talking about Kevon Seymour playing a lot there. @JoeBuscaglia #Bills HC Sean McDermott says Walt Powell and Dez Lewis have had a nice spring. Said Andre Holmes has stood out on offense and special teams @SalSports McDermott doesn't rule out Ragland or Brown moving outside if that's the best combo for the team come camp/season. @buffalobills "I've been impressed by Tyrod's leadership. There are qualities important to the quarterback position and he's doing a nice job at those."
26CornerBlitz Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 @JoeBuscaglia OT Cordy Glenn (ankle) in a walking boot #Bills
Royale with Cheese Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 I just wonder if you could have Brown at MLB, Ragland at SLB and Hodges WLB? Lorax heavy rotation at DE.
26CornerBlitz Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 @JaySkurski Sammy Watkins just took a team rep in 11-on-11 work. Progress. #Bills @SalSports That was the first time Watkins took a rep in 11/11 or even 7/7 this offseason. McDermott said plan is to get him ready for camp. Jerel Worthy is getting the starting snaps in place of Kyle Williams. LBs are Alexander, Humber, P. Brown.
Bangarang Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 @JoeBuscaglia OT Cordy Glenn (ankle) in a walking boot #Bills I really hope Glenn can be ready to go for camp. We need to get Dawkins reps at RT.
Royale with Cheese Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 I really hope Glenn can be ready to go for camp. We need to get Dawkins reps at RT. Can Dawkins keep his pants on and not hop an electrical fence?
Mark Vader Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Wasn't Hack on our list of potential franchise QBs? Not my list
26CornerBlitz Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 I really hope Glenn can be ready to go for camp. We need to get Dawkins reps at RT. The sooner the better. No more Mills! @SalSports Rookie Dion Dawkins once again working at 1st team LT in place of Cordy Glenn. Jordan Mills at RT
Kirby Jackson Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Not my listThat's one of my proudest moments on here. I trashed that guy and he ended up sucking (as expected). When you decide a guy sucks (like EJ) you better be right or that sticks with you around here.
26CornerBlitz Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 @JoeBuscaglia At least a little interesting...Vlad Ducasse is taking 1st team reps at RG. John Miller w/ the 2s, though Miller was dealing with an injury @marklud12 Shaq Lawson awfully impressive to start mandatory minicamp. Quick off the edge, couple of "sacks" in team drills.
