I think Norman may get more snaps in this game than usual with the Ravens boing so TE centric. Expand I think you're probably right. McD definitely goes with the proven hand.
JDHillFan Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 I want to know what the downside to this is. Has anyone heard from Penfield45? 1 4 1

Matt_In_NH Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Duke was brought up last week ad was inactive. Does not mean these guys are playing. Jackson probably is so he can tackle his brother. Edited January 15, 2021 by mattynh 1

I'm wondering if it might be a way to get these guys some cash. Expand Everyone on the active roster gets paid around $30K this week. These guys make the same as the stars this week. Next week I believe it doubles. Then the Super Bowl winners each make around $125K and the losers around $60K. If you don't make the active roster you get your regular pay. I think it is around $10k a week right now. Not positive on that. So moving them up does put an extra 20K in their pockets.

We can read the tea leaves all we want but my guess is Taiwan Jones takes the RB3 spot because he has a key role on special teams. Williams and Jackson will be inactive unless there's some exceptional with regards to the weather or some other extenuating circumstance. Expand Williams probably is insurance against an RB testing positive tomorrow. Jackson likely won’t play, but it makes me wonder if we’re going to take the chargers approach from a few years ago and play lots of DBs.

One, it gives him a big bump in $$ so it is a reward for hard work all season. I believe the regular roster gets $33,000/player, which is $24,600 more than a PS guy gets.

Expand I don't think this is correct. Per this source: "each player on the 53-man roster and injured reserve at game time taking home the same amount of money during the first two rounds of the playoffs" They don't need to be active, just on the 53 man roster.
PrimeTime101 Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 Yea baby Gimmie some Williams running.. That's the type of runner we need vrs the Ravens.. All dancers will get caught behind the line of scrimmage...
bigK14094 Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 I will speculate the Bills could go short in another position and elevate Williams and Yeldon. See how the weather and the game goes. Might need a power back, and Moss was that guy. Williams would be that guy if they need to grind it out in the snow. Yeldon in a pro though, and an excellent receiver. Would not be surprised to see him out there. Lets find out what Daboll wants to do, and he will call the shot. And, the idea here is both might be active.
