Your thoughts

I would be thrilled with this. We need to keep Hodgins, Blackshear, and Benford because they will never make it to the practice squad without being snatched up by another team.

White won't likely count on the active roster until he is ready to play so they will more than likely have an extra spot for someone temporarily.

Oh No! Not the LAMP roster prediction threads! 🤦‍♂️

My guess would be Cam Lewis as he can play both safety and cb.

I think White has to make the initial 53 before they make a move.

 

Think we'll need to keep one more corner, Probably Cam Lewis.  Probably another TE too, either Sweeney or Morris.

[First Round Bust]

am expecting more use of the double TE offense has me keeping one more TE Morris over Sweeney or vice versa and cutting Blackshear, 4th RB is a dead roster spot, and returns handled by Shakir (P) and Cook (KO)...expect several Bills to be waived picked-up or traded in next 7-10 days.

 

Its the pre-season....Denver didnt play any starters so the results were skewed somewhat and yes our backups played well, and that reflects good coaching, cohesive-teamwork not just talent...

Bills only played starters for a few series. Most of that was our backups just mauling their backups.

History is the Bills keep 6 LBs every year.  All the non-starters are ST guys.

If that happens again this year, then either Blackshear, Kumerow or Hodgins don't make the cut.

The 6th LB (Spector or Gilles-Harris) gets cut when Smith returns for the 7th game unless they look great.

 

My choice is Kumerow goes to the PS.  I agree with the rest.

[Dave_Bills]

Love Blackshear but I just don’t think he makes it. That’s too many running backs

[NewEra]

I don’t think we’ll keep 5 Rb and 7 WR.  
5 RBs or 7 WRs is more likely.

 

4 RBs and 6 WRs is also possible.

‘Tis the season! Worry not, this too shall pass. The bright side?  It means we are about to see Bills football again! 

 

EDIT: It’s funny, but looking at it like that leaves me wondering who is NOT on the list.

I would anticipate some sort of arrangement with Formosa Jones to cut & immediately re-sign after injury list moves re-open a spot by stashing White/Boettger. Don't know that you'd have to worry too much about a 34-year old teamer getting poached. There was a similar move with Andre Roberts a couple years back.

Tre White won't go that route unless his recovery is behind.  Stevenson may be another going to IR to start.

Kumerow traded to the Packers for a 6th is my prediction.

LOL.  I would love Beane to pull that off.

[unbillievable]

RB is not valuable enough to keep one to develop.

Even if Blackshear gets poached, they can bring back Duke if disaster occurs.

[Ed_Formerly_of_Roch]

Not keeping 5 RB's it's either Jones or Blackshear, but not both.  As others mentioned that extra slot will go to LB, so ends up 25 each offense and defense plus 3 ST

 

And if White starts out on IR, likely spot would be taken by either Lewis or McCloud  believe is his name (the guy with 6 stitches)

[unbillievable]

After how poorly the Bills were covering kickoffs, Jones makes the team over Blackshear.

[wppete]

Looks about right.
