Expand IR'ed for the year when he already had an exemption through the pathway program, of which I doubt they'll extend for ANOTHER season of exemptions, has me wondering if this is the end of the line for him with a settlement coming.

Is Breida going to be inactive all season? Expand I would have included Gilliam as a TE. speaking of which , hope we get Hollister back on the roster after the Sweeney switcheroo. Becker makes to PS again. 1

unbillievable Posted August 31, 2021 Posted August 31, 2021 Hollister may not make it back. I can imagine a number of teams offering him a starting role (JETS). 1

We currently have 11 DL men (6 DE and 5 DT). It's not absolute, certainly (look at WR and TE), but the number of guys we kept last season at each position is a fairly rough guide to how many we think we need to keep this season

Even still, he didn't deserve it over Jake Kumerow or Marquez Stevenson. They clearly outperformed him on top of being able to stay healthy. That said, he may still come back to the Practice Squad. 1

He looked somewhat competent in preseason as well. Why the hate? Expand Yeah. I actually don’t like it if they can’t sneak him onto the PS. Trubisky is gone next season, and Fromm now feels like a wasted draft choice. 2

He has a good chance to start on a SB contender. 2 4

With Singletary, Moss and Jones being activated, would they really have 4? Expand Running backs tend to get injured, so I won't be surprised if he plays a role.

FieldGeneral Posted August 31, 2021 Posted August 31, 2021 Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Hodgins having a better camp last year prior to the injuries than Davis? I understand injuries can derail careers, but is he really not worth the effort of putting him on IR? 1

Not a shock a former 5th round QB didnt make a roster with Allen and Trubisky on it.

Expand Not that I thought he had a huge chance to make the Bills 53 but I feel bad for him. He had that great first preseason. Then last year preseason is cancelled so he can’t play. The league changes the rules for this year. Then he gets hurt and can’t play in any preseason games. Feel for the bloke. 1

Expand IDK about gunner, but it's pretty much axiomatic if you want to be the 6th WR on a team you had better hone your ST chops 2

Expand I think the protocols are much more strict this year - especially w/ basically 2 classes of NFL player now, based on vaccination. I hope I'm very wrong on this. Losing 5 days for "close contact" just isn't good for our team or any team. I'm not saying Beasley is the only one who runs that risk, but it doesn't look like the Bills took that into consideration at all.
