Florence and McKelvin will be gone

[Cali512]

Rogers, Williams, and McGee are safe. Nix spoke of getting 2 CBs in FA/Draft. 5 CBs are usually active on a team. Leaving Florence and McKelvin

They'll get a chance to make the roster in camp

My guess is Flo is gone, he's already lost a step and it won't get better from here on out

Re: Florence and McKelvin will be gone

I can't believe what a drop off in play Florence had last year compared to 2010. He was a penalty machine and could not cover anyone.

Well McGee is probable gone IMO. OLD & Injury prone.

I guess you missed the news that the Bills restructured McGee's contract.

I wouldn't read too much into it. Nix has said that he'd like to draft two corners EVERY year before. Says you can't have enough of them, really. We won't dump Florence or McKelvin unless we get BETTER players, and sometimes it takes a while to know if a rookie can play or not.

That said, we didn't go after Stanford Routt for no reason, so somebody's likely on the hot-seat. The thing is, our corners would look a LOT better if we had any semblance of a pass-rush.

If we need CB's, why are we getting rid of any ?????

Extra picks in Rounds 4 & 5. They're a dime a dozen and you don't burn picks early on anything outside the Front 7 or OT.

Good to see McKelvin go. This just means he will get to the HOF quicker.

That means nothing.
They will bring him in to camp and see how he is doing his salary is nothing.
Could still get cut.

Don't think he is gone at all.
Still young and has talent.
Little help with a pass rush and saftey help would be nice for him.

This guy was stuck on single coverage on #1 WR's when he was burned.
He is always in the right place but just doesnt come up with the big play.
I think this will be a much better year for Leodis.

not that McKelvin and Florence are anything great, but going into the season with those 3 as our top 3 corners is just scary. Williams and Rogers both showed promise, but are young and lack experience. McGee will be injured by week 5 and then we're in a world of hurt.

He dropped off in 2010, IMO. I figured it was because we switched schemes, and I was hoping that he returned to his 2009 form this year.

Re: Florence and McKelvin will be gone

Florence will start.
We'll keep 6 corners.
McKelvin may keep the 6th spot and work returns.

I'm not a huge fan of Leodis by any means, but in all honesty I'd like to give him a season in Wanny's system and see what he can do. Worth a roster spot to me.

Good CBs are not a dime a dozen. I haven't seen McKelvin do enough on the defensive side of the ball to warrant him a secure spot.

Re: Florence and McKelvin will be gone

im not so concerned about the corner thing.... we need a pass rush!
