YoloinOhio Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) So, since we kept Ducasse, I'm assuming no comp pick?cuts aren't done. Roster fluid and more change will likely come by Monday night. Waiver claims tomorrow accompanied by more cuts to make room. Another round of waivers on Monday. That said they have until week 10 for those comp pick related cuts anyway. And it's not Ducasse on his own, it has to be him plus two of several other UFAs who were signed. And none were cut, yet.

YoloinOhio Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 ...thanks bro for the clarification.......so DuGASSED could still be gone is a good sign.... he could be but I have a feeling someone on the interior OL is going to be traded
jumbalaya Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Imagine if half this fanbase cared about wins as much as comp picks? Where else have you ever heard them even get talked about? Why should the fan base care about wins. The GM sure doesn't. This is the worst roster in 15 years.
The Crowing Rooster Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 he could be but I have a feeling someone on the interior OL is going to be traded Like Ritchie?
YoloinOhio Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) Like Ritchie? I am going to guess Miller or Ducasse. Maybe Groy. Edited September 3, 2017 by YoloinOhio
vincec Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 he could be but I have a feeling someone on the interior OL is going to be traded Yeah, Miller. I've been saying that for a couple of weeks. I don't get it, but you can see the writing on the wall.
Boatdrinks Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 Yeah, Miller. I've been saying that for a couple of weeks. I don't get it, but you can see the writing on the wall. It will be Miller. Ducasse is " their guy".
boyst Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 I am going to guess Miller or Ducasse. Maybe Groy.I wish it was Wood. I know Group is a no spring chicken but I would think we need to draft a new OC in 2019 as it is. Groy is a cheaper holdover. If only we got by without Glenn and Kouj didn't go nuts that'd have been great.
Big Turk Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 Sammy traded Boldin retires I really thought there was a chance that Holmes might get cut in that 3rd round comp pick formula.......I dont think that is happening now. It doesn't have to happen til week 10...plenty of time yet...
GunnerBill Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) As a general comp pick update.... Lerentee McCray does not get cut in Jacksonville (ST value). Justin Hunter and EJ Manuel also survive this cut giving them a chance to bump up the list. The Steelers cut Cobi Hamilton as well as trading Coates both of whom saw some action last year. Wouldn't be surprised to see then use Hunter similar to how we did last year... red zone specialist. Brown and Bryant will be the starters obviously, but Hunter has a totally different skill set to Eli Rodgers and Heyward-Bey who are now his likely competition lower down the roster.

BuffaloFan68 Posted September 3, 2017 Posted September 3, 2017 I would cut Taiwan Jones, Vlad Ducasse then bring back Reilly and open up some spots along with going after that add'l comp pick. Come on Buffalo - Let's get this right.
boco357 Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Looks like today, checking the over the cap site, that the Bills would have to make 4 roster moves now to get a 3rd round pick. Leonard Johnson made roster and moved up into qualifying area. On the other side Robert Blanton was cut by the Cowboys and Justin Hunter was inactive the first week. https://overthecap.com/compensatory-draft-picks-cancellation-chart/
BuffaloBillyG Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Bills reportedly working out John Greco. Would be an upgrade to Vlad as well as getting one cut done.
likei've Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Imagine if half this fanbase cared about wins as much as comp picks? Where else have you ever heard them even get talked about? Ok, I'm imagining it. What now? Are you one of those people that think the fans influence a game? You're right. If the fans talked more about wins than comp picks we'd definitely have a championship by now.
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Ok, I'm imagining it. What now? Are you one of those people that think the fans influence a game? You're right. If the fans talked more about wins than comp picks we'd definitely have a championship by now. Do you really not think fans influence decisions made by the team? That's not even the point I was trying to make. Why are people worried about a supplemental draft pick for next year before this season even starts? Why are we going to want to give up players that can help us this season, in order to maybe get a comp pick 7 months from now? This team never drafts the right players anyway. Wouldn't it be nice to occasionally look forward to a season starting and thinking it might turn out decent for a change? Rather then think about the following offseason? It's not like we are hurting for draft picks in the next draft anyway. How about keeping guys that can help us win for a change and maybe actually winning games?

If you are a GM, would you rather have Vlad Ducasse and Andre Holmes this year or other replacement level guys at OG and WR AND an additional 3rd round pick next year? Also, I don't know how you could say this team never drafts the "right" players since the people responsible for drafts in the past are no longer with the team and it's too early to assess the 2017 draft.

SaviorPeterman Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Pretty sure we have until week 10 to cut the players needed to get the comp pick. And if we are out of the playoff picture by then pretty sure that will happen.
Doc Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Pretty sure we have until week 10 to cut the players needed to get the comp pick. And if we are out of the playoff picture by then pretty sure that will happen. They'd need to cut too many of them, and hope no other teams cut their former Bills players.
