Expand Well from the sounds of peoples expectations, there's no way these guys will ever clear waivers. Likely the Pats will be all over them as they are ticket to the Super Bowl. If they do clear, then yes will be interesting to see if the Bills sign them 1
thebandit27 Posted September 1, 2019 Posted September 1, 2019 Like I said: Duke just didn't show enough in games for other teams to be hot after him. The Bills, on the other hand, saw him in practice every day for 3 months. If they wanted him in the PS, they had the inside track all along. 2 2

Expand I think it may also have to do with what is out there and what Duke wanted. He was probably told when cut yesterday that numbers wise they couldn't keep him over others but they really wanted him and he would be the first one brought up to fill a roster spot when one opens.

Ta111 Posted September 1, 2019 Posted September 1, 2019 On 9/1/2019 at 5:37 PM, Rc2catch said: I would fully agree Expand I said this in another thread that they wanted both but only wanted 6 WR, and the only way to do that was to hope Williams cleared waivers. It worked out for them. As soon as an injury occurs to a WR (which inevitably will occur) he’ll be on the 53. See Robert Foster last year.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 1, 2019 Posted September 1, 2019 I believe that teams cannot officially sign players to the PS until 2pm today. The reports are for players who have agreed to sign with teams. There were a couple instances last year where players agreed to sign, and before they did other teams swooped in and offered more money or a better chance and that player burned the team he agreed to sign with and went elsewhere.

I think it's also a sign of good coaching as is the 4-0 preseason record. The players at the bottom of the roster have been coached well and have performed better than the competition. Coach McD and staff have created a culture where the right kind of players are brought in, get coached up and improve as players. That happens top to bottom. Trust the process. Expand Heretic. 1 2
