    5 Bills who could be on the chopping block following 2017 draft...

    I don't think 12Guage or Wood are in trouble. I would think Yates might go. Now when we draft our Super Bowl QB next season, it's fair game on all QB's. Also, Tate was a solid returner but could get caught up in a numbers game.

    Many experts agree that the Buffalo Bills put together a solid 2017 draft class. The team improved their secondary, front seven and receiving corps — areas that desperately needed to be addressed.Tre’Davious White, Zay Jones and Dion Dawkins will undoubtedly be key players for Buffalo in the near future. Their arrival could signal the departure of a number of players that have been with the organization for years.While it’s always upsetting to see people lose their jobs, it’s just part of today’s NFL. The entire Bills roster has been revamped this offseason, something that will continue as the 2017 season approaches.Here are five players that the Blue and Red could cut in the wake of the draft:

            Let Wood restructure and support Groy in the transition.
            I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
            "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
            You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
            It was all             true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
            He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can             mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

              when I see words like penultimate used in a sports story have a rule to look up the writers resume...always find a writer not a jock behind the words....never pay much attention to thoughts of writers...

              like Peterman but no teams plans on cutting any player because they used a 5th rd pick on another player playing at the same position....5th rd picks are "well what players do we need to fill our 90 man roster" picks. Odds are long he won't see the field till mid/late 2018 at the earliest

                Wood would be on my list also, but he has the kind of character McD may want to keep around for another year or two.
                Henderson or KuJo. Maybe both.
                Colton Schmitt. Brandon Tate. Cardale, I guess. Those would be my five.
                There really aren't that many guys left at this point that would really qualify.

                  Wood has been the face of the franchise for several years, I don't think he's going anywhere. Henderson either.

                  The Cardale experiment lasted one game. He's done here.

                  Tate's probably gone in a numbers game.

                  I believe Darius will be on a very short leash with McDermott.

                    But you'll listen to an illiterate jock who can't string two thoughts together. Ok, you're legit.

                          Before some beat their chest and declare certain players unworthy, look at their salary structure and dead cap hit.

                          Whether you like a player or not doesn't mean a damn thing to anyone that can read and apply logic.
                          Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

                              I guess professional sports writers/journalists don't work hard to get better at their craft. I'm not sure I trust your opinion on writers since I haven't seen your resume.
