      I guess with Clements, McGhee, King, Greer and Kiwaukee Thomas, Kevin Thomas was expendable, particularly with his knee problem.

      I don't see J. Smith making the final roster - we just have too many good WRs, even though he is a versatile player.
      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?

        Not quite but I believe Bills went into camp last year with nine of them. Sometimes when you are looking for a pearl you need to shuck a lot of clams.

              Too bad about Kevin Thomas. He was a decent corner for us.

                  The Bills will draft a CB for depth- My guess is somewhere in the 4th-5th round.

                    Hopefully for another 1st...

                    Unfortunate for Thomas, I liked him.

                        I could see the Bills picking a CB with their top pick if they plan on this being Clements last year here.

                          I agree... he must have really lost a step from this injury because he was playing pretty well before it. That could have been key depth had he been able to come back. Tough loss.

                            Yeah, in the whole 20 seconds he played for us the last few years.

                              Didn't Thomas get arrested this year for Domesitc reasons? He's not a Marv character type player.
