Just think if Beane didn’t build such a great roster he would be able to keep Blackshear and Hodgins! What a tomato can of a GM.

No wonder he's having such a terrible week.

If we're going to do these mega threads, it should be done by someone who can update the OP.

 

Reading through 500+ replies for cuts here and there is crazy.

 

I know we want to keep the homepage less messy, but a new thread for each cut would still be more useful than this.

This is a Scottlaw B word about nothing and everybody B word about Scottlaw post. I love the Wall!

The Hodgins stuff is out of control.  He is measly averaging under 9 yards per catch through 3 games...while leading team in targets and catches and facing backups and guys about ready to apply at Best Buy for holiday season work.  

 

I like him, root for him, but he hasn't done so much at WR on the field that he has made himself uncuttable.  He needs to contribute and be good on ST or he isn't making this team.  

 

Like like you said, this is a very good roster, it will not be easy to make this roster across the board.

McDermott and Beane disagree.  We are fans watching what they do.  All of us have opinions that they disagree with.

I'm not a huge Sweeney fan but my hope now is he can improve his blocking with help from Kromer.

Josh is a Sweeney fan and I think that counts for something.

I said a couple days ago, given the recent upheaval, being a well liked guy in the locker room is an asset right now.

Specter over Giles -Harris (and McCloud over Giles-Harris) had to be difficult.  

I thought Giles-Harris was pretty good in the pre-season.

This may be up-thread

 

Also Blackshear not seen

He's already been confirmed as cut I believe.

The Chiefs defense was most obviously their weakest link throughout most of the season… Mahomes sucked in the 2nd half of that game. 
 

By contrast, the Bills defense was #1 in the league last season and have continued to use a favorable amount of resources into it compared to their offense…. Specifically their defensive line.

 

They may have been #1, but they were not the best defense in the NFL.. That was more a byproduct of facing weak QB's disproportionately. 

 

They were more along the lines of a Top 10 Defense that lacked any gamechangers.  

 

This year, I'd be shocked if they are the #1 statistical defense, based on SOS.. but also shocked if they aren't one of, if not the, scariest defense in the NFL.

Mancz had had ankle problems for awhile now, including games lost at Houston & IR with the Jets.

They may be working on anything from an injury settlement to IR.

 

i don’t think they are allowed to cut him right now  when he’s injured?

No that is fair. But it was the reason the Chief game was at Arrowhead and we were not the #1 seed. Offense vs Pitt. Offense vs Jags. Win those two against two teams we are clearly better than and we are home throughout January. 

Yes, but if you can make an argument it was due to depth at WR or TE, let’s hear it.  The misfires on offense had more to do with limited weapons at RB and poor OL play, combined with outright stubbornness of Brian Daboll at times.  In my opinion, the Bills have addressed the most problematic areas, upgrading the OL, and upgrading the OL coaching significantly.  Cook addresses a very specific problem quite nicely.  I think the offense has more options than a year ago, and let’s face facts:  neither Beasley or Sanders are in the NFL at this point, so their loss is not exactly earth shattering.  Yes, it remains to be seen if they have done enough, but It is not reasonable to say they have failed to address issues on offense.  They have. 

 

I do do wish the Howard thing would have worked, but given his play since the injury, this result is not surprising.

So we have so far from the Bills:

OL Jacob Capra

DE Daniel Joseph

DB Jordan Miller

OL Tanner Owen

WR Neil Pau’u

DB Josh Thomas

Then from reporters (who hear from agents or players) via your link:

TE OJ Howard

RB Duke Johnson

WR Tanner Gentry

OT Alec Anderson

OL Jacob Capra

OL Tanner Owen

DL Daniel Joseph

CB Jordan Miller

S Josh Thomas

 

That's 15, need 11 more:

RB Raheem Blackshear (Schefter)

DT Prince Emili (Talbot)

DT Brandin Bryant (Caplan)

WR Isaiah Hodgins (Buffalo Fanatics, Joe Miller -from player)

OT Luke Tenuta (reported on Buffalo Rumbings

 

That's 20, need 6 more:

DL Eli Ankou said to be working on injury settlement with Bills

 

That's 21, need 5 more to reach 53

---------------------

Hypothetical:

OL Greg Mancz (injury settlement?)

CB Tre White (PUP, back in 4 weeks)

QB Matt Barkley (vet signed to PS)

LB Andre Smith (suspended 6 games)

RB/ST Taiwan Jones might be cut temporarily

Place Stevenson on in-season IR eligible to return in 4 weeks

Resign Jones afterwards

Possibly place Doyle or Morris on in season IR, then sign punter

 

55 players were observed at practice, so a couple of the players observed at practice cant stay on the roster

Has Hodgins officially been cut? I've only seen that he wasn't seen at practice.

No. Trade in the works? Probably could get a 6th or 7th

Are you counting the space we need to add a punter ?

Bills have fielded the #1 offense in the AFC 2 years in a row
