All of the other links work, but the starting depth chart has this vague message.

I don't think the passing of RCW has anything to do with this.

What's going on?

I doubt there will be a depth chart until off-season workouts happen.

Will they hold a press conference for the announcement?

That page has been that way since Wilson's passing. I tried to view it on the day of the announcement and it was like that.

Why the depth chart, of all pages linked on the Bills website?

Just guessing, but maybe perhaps this is Russ Brandon's way of saying RCW had a bigger influence on the team roster than most people were aware of.

There shouldn't be one until camp starts anyhow. Who cares now ?

We'll add another 7 players draft day and a ton of UFA's. Plus a couple more vet FA's hanging out there. So much change coming.

Just post a roster by position and we can connect the dots.

I think this is the Bills saying to their fans, "We are going to do something big."

I'm pretty sure it was like that before Wilson's passing. It's just not a priority right now since the depth chart is virtually meaningless in March.

I would guess Mr.Wilson probably wasn't tech savvy enough to be put in charge of creating and maintaining one of the team's web pages. I bet he didn't even know what 'ftp' stands for.

I'll second what others have said, and add to it that on defense at least we have a new coordinator and mostly new assistants. Not only do we have new players in the mix but the defensive coordinator and position coaches have not seen the holdover players in live practice of any kind. Thus on defense at least, any depth chart would be total guesswork beyond the obvious stalwarts. You know 3/4 of the defensive line starters are set as well as 3/4 of the defensive backfield, and you know that on run downs you're going to have Brandon Spikes at MLB, with Alonso and Rivers as your outside backers. I'm sure billsdaily's unofficial depth chart has the starters that most would agree on until you add draft picks to the mix.

Who cares about a depth chart in March? We should have a preliminary one after OTA's and mini camp, before training camp. No need to have one now-it's going to change so much that it's meaningless at this point.

this time of year it is like that, I've seen it in years past say the same thing.

Swiper,

Is that a digital recolored picture? Is there a larger version? It's pretty sweet.
