    So, who will it be?

    LINK

    “I don’t know what has been here before, but I’ll say it’s one of the better group of college free agents that I’ve been around,” Gailey told Buffalobills.com. ”I think it’s a high quality group and if I don’t miss my guess, there will be guys that compete and be right there for jobs. If not top jobs, at least on the 53-man roster.
    Let's have a little fun.

    Predict which undrafted free agents we have on roster that will compete, or win a starting job.

    Make sure you say why you think so.

    I'll bump this September 12, to see if anyone was right.

    My guess is Antonio Coleman will see playtime but not start. I think this because he had a very successful college career in the best conference in football. He is a beast at rushing the passer, and has a lot of heart. (For example, he played with an injury most of last season and still posted double digit sacks).

    I also think Roosevelt may make the roster, but I doubt he sees playing time. My reasoning is that he needs time to develop, but has talent and is a public relations goldmine. Hometown star gets shot with hometown team. Practice squad. For now at least...

    Joique Bell is also a player I think can challenge for a practice squad spot. He could turn out to be more if we deal Lynch. Which, I think we should. Bell was a great player in college. Plus, Draft Boy has a man crush on him, and it wouldn't be a good college free agent thread without mentioning the object of DB's affection.

    There may be a lineman or two who could make the practice squad as well.

    Who do you think Gailey is talking about?

    I think Parrish will lose his job to an UDFA. You pick, they are all probably better anyways.

      I don't know any of them well enough to to predict based on their talent or ability at this point, but...

      CB's Virgil or Destin have a shot at making the squad if one of the other corners are dealt.

      Roosevelt's a possibility if we keep 6 or Parrish becomes expendable.

      I'm expecting Coleman to make the squad, just because of the lack of experience at OLB.

        Roosevelt makes the team.

        Parrish and Johnson both get cut.

          Coleman. He was a standout in his SEC games and you don't make 80 tackles in the backfield by accident. Seems the OLB position in the 3-4 was made for him. Built like a brick ****house and plays out of his mind on every snap.

          Incredible that some team didn't use a Saturday pick on him.

          I think the Bills went a long way to improve the D Front 7 this off-season (Edwards,Davis,Troup,Carrington,Moats,Batten,Coleman) in addition to switching Maybin and Ellis to OLB, which would seem to fit their skills sets perfectly. Can't wait to see who can excel in this D.

                    If Bell shows anything close to his college form, Lynch is a training camp trade.

                    Allen is a pretty good C and was overlooked. I could see him sticking.

                      Don't sleep on Jones either. He is overlooked because everybody is pulling for Roosevelt, but the kid can play and is that perfect size/speed blend (6'2, 4.45-4.55) that we badly lack right now.

                            All 5 will compete for a spot and 2 or 3 may make it, I expect the others to be PS'er.

                              Looks like Coleman had a lot of help... Can it transfer to the NFL level?
