Spring 53-man roster projections are exercises in projection more than most. When you have a Buffalo Bills team with a new defensive play caller and a likely significant spike in 12-personnel usage on offense, the projection becomes even more meaningful.
Knowing that it serves as a starting point for the next wave of offseason discussions, let’s take our first crack at it:
Offense (24 players)
QB (2) - Allen, Allen
RB (4) - Cook, Harris, Hines, Gilliam
WR (6) - Diggs, Davis, Shakir, Harty, Sherfield, Shorter
TE (3) - Knox, Kincaid, Morris
OL (9) - Dawkins, Morse, Brown, Bates, Torrence, McGovern, Quessenberry, Edwards, Boettger
Defense (26 players)
DE (5) - Miller, Rousseau, Basham, Epenesa, Lawson
DT (4) - Oliver, Jones, Settle, Ford
LB (6) - Milano, Dodson, Bernard, Williams, Klein, Matakevich
CB (7) - White, Johnson, Jackson, Elam, Benford, Neal, Lewis
S (4) - Poyer, Hyde, Rapp, Hamlin
Specialists (3 players)
K (1) - Bass
P (1) - Martin
LS (1) - Ferguson
