Saves 3.9 mill in cap space

I like Leodis the corner, decent. But I'll never get past his uncanny ability to screw up at the worst possible times. It was unreal.

Later Odis !

Bills cut McKelvin

The #Bills are releasing CB Leodis McKelvin, source said. No restructure. Will be an interesting free agent.

Looks like they decided not to restructure at all. Per Ian Rapoport the Bills cut McFumbles

Saves $3.9 Million

Another one, no big deal. Easily replaced.

Re: Bills cut McKelvin

I'd sign him back at vet minimum... Don't think he'll do better than that in FA.

Re: Bills cut McKelvin

They offered him a new contract, but he fumbled the pen. Cut.

Re: McKelvin Released

Not sure how I feel about opening up another hole, but I've never been a fan of McFumbles. To me, he's a sort of microcosm for the reasons this team can't win. He's not a bad player, but he never lived up to his draft status and he offset a lot of the good things he did by making mistakes at critical points in games.

The hole that "opens up" was filled last year when they drafted Darby. They have enough nickel backs.

Not to say they won't use another high pick on a dB...this is the Bills after all.

But...this is a guy that was drafted before Joe Flacco, when the Bills desperately needed a QB. And he was picked one place in front of Ryan Clady.

On the other hand...picks 5-9 that year were Glenn Dorsey, Vernon Gholston, Sedrick Ellis, Derrick Harvey and Keith Rivers.

Busts were busting out all over the place that year.

Re: McKelvin Released

I'm slightly surprised by this but to this day his fumble on the kickoff return to New England on Monday night continues to haunt me. Later dude.

Re: McKelvin Released

I'll seriously always remember McKelvin as one of the best coverage corners I've ever seen. He was always on his man like a blanket. Unfortunately I'll also remember McKelvin for never having the vaguest idea where the ball was to make a play, or even that a ball had much to do with his job as a db.

Saw who he could have been that one year under Pettine. A flash and then gone. My best to him.

$5M players can't be depth for this team.
