quincy Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Tyree Jackson and David Sills V are very good UDFA signings. Both should have been drafted, Sills V had college production and Jackson rare measurements and arm strength. Glad they decided to sign with Buffalo. 2 1

This is going to be the toughest cut down day since 2015 when we ended up with what I still say was our strongest roster of the whole drought period for Rex to limp to 8-8. 5

I don’t think it’s your imagination, nor mine. We really have upgraded the roster. Dampening the euphoria however, is that so have the Jets & Dolphins -to say NOTHING of that other Division foe. We have serious issues figuring out which players fit where and trying to build cohesion, communication & chemistry, as McDermott stated. 3
Bronxbomber21 Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Sills doesnt make the 53 over Duke Williams, Sills will be PS .
Heff Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 This is a solid group of UDFA’s. Sills could b a rich mans kelvin B.
Fixxxer Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Do we leave those two roster spots open for some late veteran cuts or maybe Ansah?

HuSeYiN_NYC Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 3 hours ago, GunnerBill said: Just catching up.... love Tyrel Dodson. I had him as one of my draft sleepers. Perfect fit for McDermott's scheme. Little undersized but great speed and coverage ability. Give the lack if obvious depth at LB think he has the best chance of these UDFAs to make the roster. I had a 4th/5th borderline grade on him Well said, I feel the same... I didn't grade Dodson as far as what round he was worth but I knew I wanted him on the squad...

Sills is gonna have to really play well while McKenzie regresses in order for him to make the team imo, 28 scrimmage touches, 245 yards and 2 touchdowns in 7 games with only 1 start. I think the way they used him too in that gadget role has value. Not sure there is anyone else on the roster who can really be used that way. Beasley will pass McKenzie as the starter in the slot but he is a more conventional slot receiver he isn't the bubble screen, end around, jet sweep, out of the backfield type that McKenzie was used as. He just allows the Bills to get creative. He averaged about 30 offensive snaps a game after signing last season - now I would expect that to be lower.... more in the 15-20 snaps per game in 2019 if Beasley is healthy.... but you have to keep him and keep some packages in there for him to use his skill set. Gives defenses a whole extra wrinkle in the game plan that they have to prepare for each week. 4
