Re: Bills only have three guards on roster
Buffalo opted to keep 7 WRs. That limits their options at other positions. They are only carrying three DEs too. Duke Preston can play some guard. I don't see them adding a guard at this point. Maybe when Parrish is healthy, one of the other WRs is cut and the Bills add someone else then.I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

This could happen to our offense if we don't add depth to our O-lineLast edited by Nic82; 09-05-2005, 01:52 AM.

Re: Bills only have three guards on roster
Actually, we are as short on tackles as we are on guards. Peters is our only true backup tackle, while Jerman is a tackle/guard, Preston a center/guard, and Geisinger a guard.
As I have said elsewhere, we probably won't keep 7 WRs for long. We need another backup O lineman and probably a 4th DE.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Re: Bills only have three guards on roster
I'm guessing there will be moves made before the middle of the week involving the O-line and the wide-outs.YardRat Wall of Fame

Re: Bills only have three guards on roster
Teague could play tackle as well and maybe that went into TD and MMs thinking...I see one of the wrs getting cut when Parrish comes back. The Bills must need more time to determine which three are better between: Aiken, Wilson, Reed & Smith. I could see Wilson or Smith getting cut and added to the practice squad.

Re: Bills only have three guards on roster
Originally posted by Nic82The only limit we have is the salary cap. After that, our options are open. It's easy, if we like someone then we just cut someone else. We can start at WR because we have too many and only three are good. If Bennie or Chris get injured at guard we only have a 6th round rookie backing up both. From what I've heard Preston and Geisinger haven't even been remotely impressive. Are you comfortable with either one starting in the event one of our starting interior linemen get hurt?

Re: Bills only have three guards on roster
Originally posted by TigerJBuffalo, like all NFL teams have two limitations when it comes to rosters. One is the salary cap. The other is the 53 man roster limit. If they carry 7 WRs, they can't carry as many players at some other position(s). It's simple math. Personally, I would not carry 7 WRs. Josh Reed would have a one way ticket to Timbucktoo, or wherever, if I were calling the shots. I'm not. If you're saying what the Bills should do, I'm fine with that, as long as Sciullo is healthy. I'm just calling attention to the reality of the situation.It's easy, if we like someone then we just cut someone else.
