    Who gets Cut by May 18

    I count 78 players including draft picks on the roster including todays signing. Jauron anticipates 5-10 players signed from the rookie camp. Who goes? Who signs? How many do you bring to camp? I thought it was 80.



    Plenty of tryout players to be signed?
    Buffalo brought in 30 players to camp on a tryout basis over the weekend, and so impressed was the Bills' coaching staff with the group that Chris Brown saw fit to share this nugget:
    In fact of the 30 tryout players brought in for the weekend, Jauron believes anywhere from five to 10 players could be signed.
    “Sometimes when you have a group tryout it can deteriorate pretty fast and this was really good,” said Jauron. “I think there are some guys in this tryout group that we’ll try to bring back, at least for our OTAs and maybe for training camp.”
    That would certainly be intriguing, particularly since the Bills already have a pretty full roster. Might we see some significant changes by the team's May 18 voluntary OTA sessions?

    Well, it depends who they're bringing it. We've got a ton of LB's (it seems like), so if they bring in a guy like Palmer, or Elimimian (sp?) then they might cut another LB like Costanzo, Corto, etc. Just my guess.

      The draft picks do not count on the roster until they are actually signed.

        i know..i counted them in since we know they will be signed eventually. So once they are all signed, then add in the 5-10 jauron says....who goes? Probably some LB depth from last year since Jauron was too scared to play them anyways.

          Corto and Constanzo need to go. They are purely special teams and can not contribute regularly on defense.

            By my count, we have 40 players on O, 41 on D and 4 on ST, bringing it to 85...minus the 8 draftees who won't count until signed, 77. With that in mind (assuming my math is fuzzy) we can sign 3 more people to put us at 80 throughout minicamps and then will have to cut people as draftees sign over late june and july...

            Remember, since we're the opening pre-season game, we're going to have the ability to open camp I believe a few weeks early. Washington for example opened camp last year on the 19th of July.

                I thought the number was 85.
                Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                  I thought they bumped it up to 87 recently...

                    Anyway, there are 77 listed on the roster, which includes our 8 draft picks, but does NOT include our 10 signed UDFAs, or the long snapper we signed today. That would make 88 total, or 80 not including the unsigned draft picks.

                      I did, I went by the billsdaily depth chart, and then just added by position. Hmm. I'll defer to the official roster then. I just realized I didn't count Neill as a DE or a LS, so that's where I messed up. My bad!

                      So, we have 2 spots open, plus we can put Hardy on the PUP until he recovers, Jackson until he signs. So that's two more spots.

                        See my post above yours. The roster on BB.com does not include the 10 UDFAs under contract, nor the long snapper signed today.

                          With this chart (which includes moves up to today and the UDFA)

                          We have 40 on O, 41 on D and 5 Special Teamers = 86. Is there anyone missing from that chart that's on the Bills Roster page?

                            Costanzo, for one, and there's one more that I'm trying to spot. Corey Mace is the other.
