Overall 26 years old. played center in college full time logged 100 snaps at Center in the NFL I have NO issue with McGovern at Center Me neither, but just wanted to add some context to him playing center at Penn State 1 Quote

Nephilim17 Posted March 6 Posted March 6 As the Bills official site has already released a statement on the cuts, metjhinks that's all (!) for today... https://www.buffalobills.com/news/buffalo-bills-release-five-players-including-jordan-poyer-mitch-morse-and-siran-neal The Buffalo Bills announced the release of the following players Wednesday: safety Jordan Poyer, center Mitch Morse, defensive back Siran Neal, wide receiver Deonte Harty and running back Nyheim Hines.

DrMaxPower Posted March 6 Posted March 6 It kind of feels like McD has some new found confidence in their ability to coach up and play rookies/inexperienced players. All the defensive injuries lead to a bunch of players getting a baptism by fire and, for the most part, they filled in admirably. Maybe a small silver lining to last season. Nice to see them go full 'reset' and pull off the band-aid. Quote

Strange they didn't list White. Maybe because he's a post June 1st cut and they can't yet? 1 Quote

VW82 Posted March 6 Posted March 6 With more releases (so far) than restructures, I wonder if that means Beane will be aggressive trading futures for more picks this year. We need players. Quote
MAJBobby Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Also let me say this now. If Bills can get what they want done this season without touching Diggs or Millers contracts. Those will be the two contracts Bills walk from next offseason. Quote
DuckyBoys Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Were getting younger and probably a year late on a few of these guys I'm glad they are shaking things up Find some new young players Don't see anything we cant possible at least match if not significantly upgrade Quote
Virgil Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Just now, JohnBonhamRocks said: Please post this on the Broncos board 😂 I looked ahead at the 2025 cap, and they don't list any dead money. I'm going to assume they just haven't updated it yet. Half of Tre's 10 mil should hit next year. We are also 40 mil under next years cap. Which, with these cuts, Josh locked in, and the cap going up again, isn't a bad place to be in. Also, next year is the year they could move on from Diggs, Miller, and Knox if they wanted to. It would only save them 15 mil total, but could be worth it Just now, MAJBobby said: Also let me say this now.

I only wanted to see them restructure Oliver, Josh, Milano, and Dawkins. 1 1 Quote

I only wanted to see them restructure Oliver, Josh, Milano, and Dawkins. The fact they didn’t go right to the restructure game. And instead the hard choices. Tells me that Beane saw this group is at its ceiling and time for a reset. smart pulling off the bandaid the same year the team competing in your division has same cap issues. 1 Quote

Please and thank you. 🤘 Spotrac is keeping up pretty well. It's -$16M with $10M added to the cap June 1st. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/cap/ 1 3 Quote
Norcalbillsfan Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Gonna miss those guys, i think the worst part for me as a fan is watching contributors like po and morse walk to save pennies compared to what we pay von to be a scare crow. But I'm happy so far. Get younger and cheaper. 1 Quote

All the defensive injuries lead to a bunch of players getting a baptism by fire and, for the most part, they filled in admirably. Maybe a small silver lining to last season. Nice to see them go full 'reset' and pull off the band-aid. Yea, I can see the team being even better honestly: Offense: OL: You hope Edwards and McGovern settle into their new roles well, Torrance & Brown both should be getting better - it should be on of the better units in the league. Need to find some decent depth at guard and center RB: Cook is fine as premier back, need to sign/draft some specialist behind him, and a developmental guy who can step in and take 15-20 carries just in case (he screams 4-5th round pick to me) TE: need to find a pure blocking TE, and I'd entertain trades for Knox WR: Need to add a pair of deep threats, 1 in the draft and 1 in FA. The Bills actually are quite good/borderline elite when it comes to short and intermediate routes, and if they do add 2 legit deep threats the Offense is better than last seasons Defense: Here things are real dicey. DT: You have Oliver, and you desperately need to resign Jones to start at 1T. Beyond that you're likely looking at 3 more players who can be on the 54, and probably another 1T for the PS DE: You have your 2 starts, and if Von is even semi back you're good with that. Would be great to re-sign AJE, but regardless you need 3 more dudes or so for thr 54 either through FA or Draft LB: You can pretty much stand pat here, but you want to find some guys for the PS who can step up. Think about an eventual replacement for Milano as well CB: You roll with the 3 you have now, and add another depth guy, while also finding someone who can back up Taron Johnson in the slot Safety: This position is a mess All in all you have real hope for the front 7, and especially love the potential of the LB room, if they can add some speed at safety that will help out the corners quite a bit.
