Updated trade: Turns out that Buffalo traded CB Kevon Seymour to the Carolina Panthers for WR Kaelin Clay, per source. - Stripes77
So our only real CBs are White and Gaines now right? Seems undeniably thin. Not sure a 5-6 receiver and a 7th rounder was worth creating such a hole, but whatever, isn't about this year's results I suppose.

WR Brandon Reilly
- One of the darlings of the preseason for Bills fans, the team is likely hoping to sneak him on the practice squad in the event that he clears waivers. Reilly did everything in his power to try and make the team outright, and made some big plays near the end of the preseason to try and force their hand. However, it just wasn’t enough for the time being — but the cuts on Labor Day weekend are as much of a game as anything else. The Bills are likely going to try and add a wide receiver through the weekend to the roster, which means the Bills will probably need to release someone to do it. Rather than subjecting Reilly to waivers a full day later where there are a lot less cuts, releasing him Saturday gives a greater chance — due to the sheer volume of moves being made today — that he sneaks through the cracks and is available to be signed to the practice squad. Either way, the Bills want Reilly back.
I don't get why shady is still here he can't be this blind to waste his good years here - GERBE!!!75PTS
He may buy into a few more years here (retiring here), which a lot can change in that amount of time in football. I remember when the 49ers were the team to beat with Alex Smith at the helm, when Andrew Luck was the next Peyton, when RG3 was relevant...a lot can change in a few years...and he still gets to be "the man" while he's here. I'm sure we're at least begging a few of them to stay. Eric Wood wouldn't have been extended otherwise.

I really hope this organization knows what they are doing
