10 Realistic Buffalo Bills Cut Candidates

10 Realistic Buffalo Bills Cut Candidates

Author: Blue Wire February 16, 2024 Duration: 45:22

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran runs down his list of what he thinks are the 10 most realistic Buffalo Bills cut candidates now that the NFL offseason has officially begun.

For the first time in several years the Bills are a mess in regards to their salary cap situation. In fact, they are the second-most over the cap team in the NFL as things stand. Brandon Beane and company will be making several moves over the next handful of weeks to improve their cap standing, which will include a handful of player restructures (Josh Allen being a lock), possibly a few player extensions and maybe getting a player or two to accept a pay cut to give the Bills sufficient operating room going into free agency and the draft.

Even so, there's going to be a handful of tough decisions for Beane to make when it comes to roster cuts and potential cap savings. Buffalo's avoided having to cut players because of cap reasons they'd otherwise certainly hold onto---until now. Patrick goes over his list of 10 possibilities, ranked from least to most likeliest. The list ranges from fringe depth all the way to a trio of solid players, including a trio of former NFL All-Pro's. Alongside a list of players Patrick explains why it's possible Beane works out something with each or why it's (in most cases) realistic he simply cuts ties all together.

Great ready, Bills fans---a potentially challenging offseason begins now.
