Growing up in Europe, Constantin Ritzmann played all the usual sports.
Soccer, basketball, track and field. He even delved hard into judo, nearly earning his black belt.

But Ritzmann was no ordinary kid in Mellensee, Germany. And after watching his older brother, Alexander, experiment with something called American football, he gave it a try at age 16 and was hooked....more (http://www.democratandchronicle.com/sports/bills/08147C57RJ0_sports.shtml)

He's a little light, but he or Spicer may make the PS - we're not exactly deep at DE.

Yes I think he is a good prospect for PS. Rusty could they try to mold him but then what happens? Another team can sign him in offseason unless he is given a contract and put on roster before end of season.

Whch is exactly why I think Peters will make this team no way the Bills place him on the PS he will be gone in less than an hour.

You may be right, but I don't think we keep 4 TEs on the 53 man roster. So does Neufeld get cut, leaving 2 rookies - Euhus and Peters - behind Campbell, or does Euhus - a far more polished player than Peters - go on the PS?

NeuFeld could still stay he plays TE/FB.

That's very possible. In fact, Euhus can also play TE/H-back/FB. Maybe we DO keep 4 TEs and only Shelton as a true FB, which might mean cutting Burns and putting Lawton on the PS.
