elltrain22 Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 Since there is a lot of smart people here on this board, does anyone here have any good possibilities with players that might get cut?? Beane has said that last year Maclin or Decker became available, so what will be out there this year?? Whether at WR or OL, or hopefully both... WR possible adds: Maclin, aldrick robinson, markus wheaton, or course Dez Bryant, travis benjamin OL possible adds: Ryan Kalil, Josh Sitton, Ramon Foster some of these guys are already out there, some, like Kalil, may get cut Go Bills!! #BillsMafia

baskingridgebillsfan Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 it is not an good list, their best chance to up grade the receiver position is if someone unexpected becomes available. More than likely they will have to patch it together this season and hope for the best
BuffaloBillyG Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 I'm watching Dallas. They have a bunch of WRs. Wouldn't be all that shocked if Beane pulls off a trade as well.

BruceVilanch Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 With our OL I wouldn't mind taking a flyer on Luke Joeckel, he is young enough (26 or 27) we could kick the tires and see if he has anything. Other than that we will have to wait for cuts or make a creative trade to get someone who can be an instant weapon.

Possibly 3. That's why I said "might". Dallas has three #3 WRs and then some question mark depth guys. Buffalo has Benjamin and then a bunch of depth guys. Really boils down to how much you like Benjamin. 30 minutes ago, The Jokeman said: Look at the Redskins WRs. Yeah, they're also pretty terrible. I think Dallas, Washington, and Buffalo are the bottom 3 in whatever order you want.
thebandit27 Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 Atlanta is tight against the cap and just drafted Calvin Ridley; I wonder if they'd move Mo Sanu for a conditional draft pick next year and let Justin Hardy and Marvin Hall slide into more prominent roles?

Unless a team works a big trade or needs cap space to sign a remaining FA, they aren't likely to make big roster moves at this point. Teams might snip a few "fringe" players to add a guy invited for a tryout, waive: injured or cut: did not pass physical a few guys. It's interesting because there's no intermediate roster cutdown any more so teams have until just before opening day to put together a 53-man. Must make the GM's life more challenging. 27 minutes ago, DCOrange said: That's why I said "might". Dallas has three #3 WRs and then some question mark depth guys.

That’s a guy that I threw out as a possibility. They can slide Ridley into his role, save money and gain as asset. Would you send the Ragland pick for Sanu? I would I think (although I’d prefer a 5th or 6th). Maybe a conditional 5th that can become a 4th? Edited May 1, 2018 by Kirby Jackson
PaattMaann Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 I really don't see us adding a WR at this point, unless one of our guys goes down. I think they see upside in some of our younger guys (and obviously just drafted two). They add a WR and then cut a guy they just drafted? Benjamin and Zay are locked in as the top two, Holmes they like obviously as they kept him all year last year when comp pick was out there, and the rest are young guys with potential/special teamers. Jeremy Kerley was signed and could be a nice 3rd WR, he has shown he can haul in a lot of balls in the NFL when given a chance. Dupree/Streeter/two rookies rounds out the WR room. I could see Dupree or Streeter cut if someone the team really likes becomes available but I would be surprised. *I am not saying I am OK with the WR room, I just feel like the team is. I would be all about adding a RT and another guard to the line after teams make some cuts. I could see that as an option.

Beane just said yesterday he knows they need to add more skill talent and will be exploring areas to do that.
BillsFan17 Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 I will say this, the Watkins and Darby trade came out of left field. I wouldn't be surprised to see a move like that or even two in order to add weapons. A lot of people were down on this WR class and rightfully so, so I'm glad Beane didnt reach just to fill a need. However, the news is still as present as ever, so need to do something.
