    But hey, let's keep 2 kickers and Brad Smith even though we have Thigpen and T Jackson. Who needs RB's or WR's?

      Bad.

      They better get on the phone and talk with clubs about trades. Culling practice squads and picking over FA crumbs after the 1st week of the season won't do it.

        We all know we're either getting Easley or Aiken off the practice squad.

            Gailey needs to get Easley and Graham up to speed asap.

              We had a bunch of garbage at WR in preseason. The problem wasn't keeping enough receivers on the roster at cut down day, it was not acquiring receivers in the offseason who were competent enough to be viable in the NFL. Even one of the receivers we drafted & kept, Graham, wasn't ready enough to be active on opening day. Why keep garbage just to satisfy fans who wanted X number of receivers on the roster. It wasn't Nix's & Chan's fault in September, it was their fault in March through July.

                Name some possible trade partners?

                    Manningham would have been a good add. Or Laurent Robinson.

                      Because
                      A) injuries happen and we need a certain number of WR's just to have enough bodies and
                      B) We kept Brad Smith, Tyler Thigpen and 2 kickers. It's not like we used the roster spots that we saved wisely.

                      And I agree that we should have had more quality at the position in camp.

                        Maybe we'll be able to finally see all of this "potential" Marcus Easley supposedly possesses when they bring him up from the practice squad. But wait, we also have Ruvell Martin who we kept for Special Teams, yet he was absolutely clueless on the punt return TD yesterday, and couldn't catch a cold......

                        Good job with the depth at WR Front Office....
                        The last time the Bills made the playoffs was 1999.

                            He's out there somewhere.

                            I'll check the hospitals. You check the jails.

                              Here's two:

                              CIN - Ryan Whalen. HOU - Kevin Walter. Whalen is a 2nd year player, popular target of Luck at Stanford. Kept on CIN's roster of seven (!) wrs. He would have never cleared waivers. He's a clone of the sadly injured 2011 rookie Jordan Shipley. Wes Welker types.

                              Walter is a canny vet. I don't know about his health.

                              Hope this helps to answer your question.
