Bills stufffff

Chris Brown, Bills blogger, posts his "53 man roster"


QB (3) - Edwards, Losman, Hamdan

RB (4) - Lynch, Jackson, Barnes, Omon (this was a tough call because I still believe Wright is a talented player and can have a solid career in this league. I just worry the staff has run out of patience)

WR (6) - Evans, Reed, Parrish, Hardy, Jenkins, S. Johnson

TE (4) - Royal, Schouman, Fine, Massaquoi

OL (8) - Walker, Dockery, Fowler, Butler, Chambers, Bell, Preston, Whittle (Gaddis is still practice squad eligible and Peters goes on Did Not Report list, Matt Murphy to I-R)

DL (8) - Schobel, Kelsay, Stroud, K. Williams, Denney, McCargo, S. Johnson, Ellis

LB (7) - Crowell, Posluszny, Mitchell, DiGiorgio, Ellison, Buggs, Costanzo (I really think this is a toss up between Costanzo and Jon Corto - I think it could go either way - Whoever doesn't make I think makes the practice squad between those two)

CB (5) - McGee, Greer, McKelvin, Youboty, Corner (I would prefer to keep Will James as well, but I think the luxury of keeping six corners went out the window with the tight end injury situation. I think if this has to happen it would be valuable experience lost - Not saying it will happen, but I think it's a distinct possibility)

S (5) - Whitner, Simpson, Scott, Wilson, Wendling

Practice squad - Gaddis, Huggins, Cox, R. Felton, Mace, Hall, Mayle and then Corto or Costanzo (whoever doesn't make the 53).



I can't really disagree with this roster except maybe Corto and Castanzo



Bills not goin to Toronto after all?

Toronto's NFL experience leaves a bad taste

A 45-year-old grandfather who happens to be the leading passer in CFL history is ready to return to the league.

Sources have told Metro that Damon Allen, who retired before this season, expects to resurface as a backup quarterback with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Hamilton Tiger-Cats or Toronto Argonauts within 10 days.

For more on this story, as well as some new information concerning Ottawa’s increasingly questionable return to the league, check out my newest CFL Report.

• Here’s the latest from those pursuing an NFL franchise for Toronto:

The Buffalo Bills, despite their agreement to play games at the Rogers Centre during the next five seasons, will not – I repeat, will not -- permanently move to Toronto.

There’s a new plan in place, and it calls for Ted Rogers et al to acquire another NFL club, possibly the New Orleans Saints or San Diego Chargers, in time for the 2010 season
.

• The so-called NFL experience in Toronto earlier this month, incidentally, turned out to be less-than-enjoyable for many fans, some of whom complained to Rogers customer-service executive Will Hill.

The game between the Bills and the Pittsburgh Steelers was tolerable, for preseason play, but everything surrounding it – including the ticket prices – were largely loathed.



Take it for what its worth...
