No imagination! 
 

I fully expect McLoud and Cam to be snatched up by them if they don’t make the roster. 

 

Nick McCloud has not make enough noise to be nicknamed McLoud.

 

Cam Lewis has shown he is a capable DB and will not be put on waivers.

McCloud will get claimed for sure he is a promising prospect. 
 

Cam Lewis always delivers and shows up when his number is called. I think he makes the 53 this year and he deserves it. Hard working, tough, playmaker with special teams ability.

Trade Crowder to the Giants, they could use a slot WR and he's used to playing in that stadium. Draft pick would be great to get his salary off the books, but I would even throw Sherlock a bone and take Sills V.

I was thinking he might be traded to Carolina. Not sure if their WR situation tho.

The Bills just greased the Giants palm by releasing Griffin. Waiting for the Giants to release Saquan in the next few hours…

I wonder if Giants fans will complain like some Bills fans did when we brought in former Panthers.

I doubt the NYG fans see the connection yet, maybe after another 5 or 6 players

Lmao ..guess this is going to be the new Carolina to Buffalo pipeline

Cam Lewis from his first year here until now is virtually unrecognizable as a player...he has improved so much it's not even funny.

Daboll and shoen definitely following the McDermott/Beane blueprint for building a team. This all sounds so farmiliar with Carolina 🤔

[StHustle]

Only 1 of 2 players I could find claimed off first cuts. With our “embarrassment of riches” I could see this happening every cut time along the way. It’s definitely an indictment of BBBs job ability!

Except we are way way better than Carolina was at the juncture we were poaching all their players so they should be getting better players.

The biggest difference is the Bills are actually good

How was Griffin poached, if the Bills cut him? 🤔

I was thinking more of the guys who barely miss the 53 cut.  The Bills have 2, 3, and possibly 4 players who when they get cut are going to another teams' 53 roster.  Unless Beane pulls off some trades.

we can’t cut Cam Lewis. Figure out how to keep him. 

Ho gets kept and who gets cut then?

Going to be a tough cut down. Think we keep an extra DB on 53 this year

 

Tre White - Benford - Neal

Elam - Dane Jackson

Taron Johnson - Cam Lewis

The Giants claimed cornerback Olaijah Griffin off waivers, his agent, J. Tooson, announced.

Giants coach Brian Daboll and Griffin were in Buffalo together last season.

This is his agent?

While I would mostly agree with this statement, the Panthers did just come off a recent Superbowl appearance...

The Bills have 16 DBs. They kept 10 last year.

 

Starters=White - Elam - T. Johnson - Poyer - Hyde

Backups=Benford - Jackson - Hamlin - J. Johnson

 

Pick 1 from below

Lewis - McCloud - Neal

Harris - Miller - Thomas - Ingram

If we’re only picking 1, it’s Neal.  We just gave him a new contract and he’s a key special teams player aka Bills version of “The Golden Ticket”.

Keeping 10 vs 11 is probably the toughest roster decision for the coaches/front office.

 

Lewis will be instantly picked up, Giants or someone else.  McCloud might even get snatched up, I feel like they are kinda "hiding" him, by cross training at Safety this year.

 

We will see, but I think Cam makes the team and we compensate by keeping 6 WRs...Kumerow is cut, Cam can fill that S/T void.  

 

QB - 2 (try to get Barkley to P/S)

Rb - 4 (Jones makes it)

TE - 3 (including Gilliam, Howard makes it but close)

Wr - 6 (Crowder and Hodgins fill out the final 2 spots)

OL - 9 (Ford gets final spot)

S/T - 3 (Araiza makes it)

DE - 5 (Shaq makes it)

DT - 4

LB - 6 (Spector and Dodson final 2 spots)

CB - 7 (including Neal and Lewis)

S - 4

 

I think we play some "games" by cutting Reid, sneaking Speedy onto initial 53 then IR. Boettger starts year on PUP.

 

Priorities for P/S:

1. Barkley

2. Blackshear

3. Duke

4. Morris

5. McCloud

6. Tenuta

7. Anderson

8. Hart

9. Love

10. Giles-Harris

11. Thomas

12. Austin

13.. Harris

14. Lee

15. Ankou

16. Bryant
