    There have been threads started on potential wrs that might be available at cut time. What about at linebacker, defensive line and defensive back. Anyone care to discuss potential talent at those positions or a young veteran that could be let go at final roster cut?

    I don't know offhand, but I wish we would have kept Marvin Mitchell.

    A better question is what positions are probably positions of need for the Miami at cut down time. What acorns are going to be looked at, or at what positions are acorns needed? The problem this year is that the roster needs acorns all up and down.

    TBH, I'd love to land some of Coyle's defensive players from Cinci who understand the scheme.

    CB Leodis Mckelvin could get a surprise axe and that would be a great pickup for us in my opinion. Bills already have a rising young corner in Aaron Williams and they drafted Stephon Gilmore with the 10th overall selection (they also drafted Ron Brooks from LSU in the fourth round), Mckelvin will have some competition.
    Terrence McGee is also expected to return from knee surgery by Week 1.

    CB Nate Clements or Adam Jones could be released and I could see us having some interest in one of them since Coye is familiar with both. One of them look to be the odd man out with Cincy adding Dre Kirkpatrick, and Terrence Newman to pair with returning starter Leon Hall. I'd take a chance on either one.

    Others that might be available
    S Brodney Pool
    LB Akeem Jordan or Casey Mathews
    S Reed Doughty
