JoeF Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Levi is a great guess Superhero...He likely has to beat out Breon Borders, Lafayette Pitts and Ryan Carter if the Bills keep 5 CB's. I think it will come down to special teams play. WR Robert Foster would be my pick. 2
Dadonkadonk Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I like Mat Boesen to make the team as a hybrid DE/OLB pass rusher. That said I am also on record as saying Lorax will not make the final cut. This team has a stunning lack of talent in the pass rush. If it comes down to numbers I think they will keep an extra pass rusher and PS a DB or two. I think Ike Boetgger, OT Iowa coming off Achilles will make the PS and after a year will challenge for the swing tackle spot. 1
BruceVilanch Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 With our lack of depth at WR I would say Foster would have the best shot. 2
Logic Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Personally, I don't think there are as many WR spots open as some others think. Benjamin, Jones, Kerley, and Holmes are all near locks to make the roster in my mind. That leaves two spots at most. McCloud and Proehl would seem to have the inside track on those two spots, based on their having been drafted. I could see only one of them making the 53, but in that case, it's just as likely that the final spot goes to second year players Dupre or Reilly. OLB, on the other hand? We've got Humber to back up Milano, but we need more depth at the outside linebacker spot. For that reason I pick: Corey Thompson, LSU. 3
njbuff Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Corey Thompson would be the first guy you think of. He virtually has no competition for a LB spot on the 53. If he shows anything, he is on the roster.
scribo Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Definitely some interesting prospects given that I think this coaching staff will make room for hard-working over-achievers. Bring it everyday and you got a shot. If I had to pick one, I think Corey Thompson has a clear path to the 53, provided he plays all-out and stays healthy.
H2o Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I too think Foster has the best shot due to his familiarity with the offense, the WR depth chart right now, his speed, and potential ST value. 1

This is where I am as well. There are a few guys though that have a shot. How hard would it be for Foster to take a spot from Andre Holmes for example? Thompson has a shot as well. If Boesen shows the ability to rush the passer he will be in the mix. The Bills aren’t overly talented or deep. There is opportunity here for aome of these young guys to get a chance.

I'm with you, Barbarian. Edited May 30, 2018 by dollars 2 donuts 1
GunnerBill Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I wouldn't be surprised to see 3 or 4 UDFAs make it. I'm going to go for a name not yet mentioned and say I think former LSU hybrid Corey Thompson has a chance. They had him in as one of their 30 visits - they clearly like him a lot.
MAJBobby Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) WR Robert Foster. Easily the worst position group on the team. Now if you are counting PS players you will see even more UDFA players make the team Edited May 30, 2018 by MAJBobby
JohnBonhamRocks Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Levi Wallace I don't see Foster taking a spot from Holmes, Clay, Streater, Proehl, or McCloud.
NewEra Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I’ll go with Thompson as well. Wallace being my #2 and Foster #3.
blacklabel Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Maybe that de Beer kid... just because it seems fitting to have a dude with the last name "Beer" on the Bills. 1
