Wonder if Aiken is on the bubble with Coleman and Brown looking so good?

I hope Brown makes it. You can't teach speed. The kid is a burner.

That'd be a complete waste of a 4th rounder then.

I don't see it happening. I would guess Moulds, Reed, Shaw, Coleman, and Aiken

Brown on STs. Don't we carry a KR on the roster?

Whoops...Coleman's a lock, but Brown may be too small. Still, Aiken will have to displace CJ unless the Bills keep 6 WRs.

my thoughts exactly... i think Coleman will make it as the 4th WR and Brown will be a return specialist on the roster .. just like Rogers last year.

All special teamers except Punter, Kicker and Long Snapper have a regular position designation, i.e. WR, RB,CB, etc. Actually, the LS is assigned a regular position as well, I believe ( TE, C, LB, etc.). So A. Brown, if he sticks, would be listed as a WR.

I thought Rogers was listed either as a WR or RB last year. It would seem that these position designations are for numbering purposes.

No way Aiken is cut. CJ is as good as gone, IMO...at least that's what I'm hoping!

There's no way that CJ makes it thru cuts.

JR,

I guess I'm confused; If you look at the DC on TOS, ...

TOS Bills Depth Chart (http://www.buffalobills.com/team/index.cfm?cont_type_id=1319)

...you'll notice that there are spots for KR and PR.

I realize that they could be duplicative, but we've had different ones in the past.

Bills won't cut CJ, he's too good. Not good enough to break the top 4 but he is a good wideout. I haven't seen him drop a pass yet. I think he's set in at #5 and brown will be listed as ST. Aiken won't be cut because he's got serious potential.

Aiken has not showed a thing. It does not seem fair to cut a guy that has looked good just because Aiken was a draft pick. I don't think he is the lock some of you think he is.

Wys - The DC may list them that way, because that's obviously their function on the team. But I believe on the official roster submitted to the league, they must have an O or D position assignment, most likely for numbering purposes.

I think our great special teamers - Steve Tasker and Mark Pike - . were listed as WR and DE, respectively, during their careers.

The Jett era never began......
I think Brown is on the bubble, but with that kind of blazing speed, they might not let him go......
They will keep Aiken on principle, 4th rounders are seldom cut.....
Coleman is a lock, and very well should be!
Jury is still out on CJ, but he is a solid backup....

Speed no mean nothing if you cant catch the ball.

I'm thinking they'll put Aiken on the practice squad...why waste a draft pick if he could be a good player?
