[YardRat]

Nephew

[YardRat]

I swear we had Vigil in here once before...am I mistaken?

[Goobylal]

Good. All the guys I wanted them to keep, some even on the active roster (Reilly, Lewis).

All those make sense.

[YardRat]

Yeah, apparently Vigil was an error.

The Vigil name rang a bell - WAS and CIN met in preseason, and the local announcer mentioned it was a meeting of two brothers - Zach and Nick.

I wonder what they plan to do with Zach Vigil? Seem odd to put an ST player on the PS...

His younger brother Nick is penciled in as starting SAM by CIN.

Er, I'm not trying to raise a stink here about BUF signing Zach Vigil.

Younger brother Nick was a 3rd round pick in 2016. Zach was undrafted in 2014.

LB Zach Vigil is now official.

TE MyCole Pruitt and G Will Pericak bring them up to the allotted 10.

Mudge is a great story. I'm rooting for him to make it off the practice squad & make millions over the next few years. The guy is so different than some of the entitled guys who are on NFL rosters. Arenaball lineman who lives on a farm with the goal of farming for all his and his family's needs (wife & 3 daughters) has no agent & the Bills call him asking if he wants to try out for the team. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2017/08/30/bills-mudge-puts-milking-goats-aside-to-pursue-nfl-dream/105123668/

Mudge got the idea to raise goats a year ago from a former teammate. His objective is to become so self-sufficient that he'll never have to go to the grocery store again.

Those plans are on hold for now.

Mudge is driven by the opportunity of providing for his family, something Castillo reminds him of during practice.

"Juan's always yelling, 'Think about your girls!'" he said. "I'm trying to get vested. That's what I'm looking at. I mean, I don't get vested being on the practice squad."

The Bills honored Mudge on Tuesday by having him share his story during a team meeting.

It wasn't lost on some players that Mudge spoke of what an NFL job would mean to him at a time when final cuts are approaching.

"It's awesome to see a guy like that get an opportunity, because by all accounts he shouldn't be here," veteran guard Richie Incognito said.

"He's trying to be included on this roster to not only be a part of a football team, but to improve his family's life. And it's real for him," Incognito said. "We're blessed to have played in this league for a long time. And to see a guy like that, it motivates everybody a little bit more."

[Goobylal]

What does Ritchie mean he shouldn't be here?

[Albany,n.y.]

What does Ritchie mean he shouldn't be here?

He means he's an overachiever just to get his shot at the NFL. He means it in a positive way as in the Kim Pegula story of an abandoned baby who ended up co-owner of the Buffalo Bills.
