Does Reyes cut mean Briggs coming?

[X-Era]

Pure speculation on my part. But why now? I havent seen any link to a roster bonus of any sort, why not cut him with Villarial and Bowen?

Again, Im merely adding things up.

We hear the rumor of Briggs talk, now we cut Reyes when we dont need to unless we need more cap space. The only reason we would need cap space now is for either a FA or a trade. The guys that have stopped by are fairly cheap, no cut for cap reasons needed. That leaves the trade option.

Im starting to think the Briggs thing has legs.

They released him because he may be indicted in the JFK shooting or......


He sucked and we just signed 3 starting caliber lineman. Take your pick.

How much cap space do we even save with the Reyes cut? It can't be that much.

I think the most likely case is that we've just added 3 new lineman and we have a few young guys to develop, so why keep Tutan around? I think out of respect for him, Marv & Co. are just giving him a better chance to sign with another team as opposed to waiting until spring or summer.

They cut him because he blows dogs for quarters.

They cut Reyes and Villarail to make room for 2 new scrubs Walker and Whittle.

Scrubs huh?? You are such a tool.

Re: Does Reyes cut mean Briggs coming?

Whoa....This is a ridiculously negative response.

Why is everyone so damn agitated today?

Look, cutting Reyes saves 1.25 mill if Im looking at Clumps numbers right.

Maybe we are now seeing what cash to cap really means. Maybe were letting him go because we want the extra mill towards our cap.

I admit the whole thing is weak, I admitted it was just speculation. Rather than blast it outright, why not discuss it?

Skoob, Whittle has played for 4 teams in 5 years. Walker played on the worst o-line in the NFL. If he was any good the Raiders would have resigned him.

Just because they are Buffalo Bills now doesn't mean someone waived a magic wand and turn them into a mercedes.

Re: Does Reyes cut mean Briggs coming?

getting rid of Reyes would allow us to pay Briggs an extra weeks pay

Re: Does Reyes cut mean Briggs coming?

lol.. I doubt Reyes has anything to do with creating room for briggs.

Reyes got cut because
A) He's a scrub
B) We spent a decent amount of $ of the OL over the weekend.?
