Practice Squad

[NewEra]

That’s a helluva PS.  Mccloud would’ve been the cherry on top! 

[Philo]

Nick McCloud and Kingsley Jonathan would've been there for sure, so I'd expect another DB and DE added. I believe the max is 16? Maybe another OL or DB for the last spot?

[Bigvinny]

Our practice squad QB is better than the Seahawks starter.

You would really need to compare to other teams to tell whether this is a lot.  For example, the Jets had seven players picked off waivers today and 11 players over th3 last two weeks.  That's two more than the Bills have in two years in just in two weeks.

 

I would say it's pretty good given the strength of the Bills roster.

But wait - I thought there was "no way" we'd be able to get Isaiah Hodgins and Raheem Blackshear on the Practice Squad? 😆

[Forlorn hope]

My guess is Josh Thomas, Olijah Griffin and Jacob Capra fill the last 3 spots. Capra played hs football with Doyle and can play all 5 oline positions in an emergency 

All 3 know the system too

[Process]

That's a hell of a practice squad, holy cow. Having vets like Austin and Duke sticking around is great.

I believe Capra was activated for the road pats game last year

HAVE to get a TE.

A quick rundown of former Bills now on other teams the last 2 years.

- DE Darryl Johnson traded to Carolina for a 6th rd pick.  Bills used this pick on Christian Benford.  Panthers released him yesterday.  Claimed by Seahawks.

- released G Jack Anderson.  Signed to Bills PS.  Eagles grabbed him.  Eagles released him yesterday.  Claimed by Giants

- released Rachad Wildgoose.  Signed to Bills PS.  Jets grabbed him.  Jets released him yesterday.  Claimed by Washington

- traded G Cody Ford to Arizona for 2023 5th rd pick.

- released TE OJ Howard.  Looks like he's signing with Bengals

- released DB Nick McCloud.  Claimed by Giants

- released OT Luke Tenuta.  Claimed by Indy

- released OL Tanner Owen.  Claimed by Saints

- released DE Kingsley Jonathan.  Claimed by Bears

 

Just crazy the number of players who can't make Bills roster but end up somewhere else.

 

 

You forgot Haak.  On Colts.

McCloud was someone I thought would make the 53 yesterday.  Sad to see him go.

Keeping Love over Jonathan is a wash.

Tanner Owen was not impressive from what I seen.  Same with Tenuta.

 

Like I said in my earlier post, Beane needs to look for TEs, DBs and OL only for the PS.

 

I liked McCloud as well but it was probably him or Cam Lewis, no?  Id rather have Cam Lewis.

Probably more of a toss-up.  Cam will be cut when Tre comes back.

Any news on Duke Williams yet???

I think he's like the Emperor of Canada or something.

Austin and Johnson is insane.  Depth abound

I thought they had a Prefect or something like that up there.

 

Maybe a Regent?

We essentially traded Tenuta for this guy, I like him better as a developmental guy on the PS:

Ryan Van Demark?

 

I believe he attended University with Greg Van Roten back in... Denmark or Lichtenstein or one of those places.

 

They played rugby together or something.

 

That must be why he chose the Bills.
