Linebacker (6)
Tremaine Edmunds, Matt Milano, Vosean Joseph, AJ Klein, Tyler Matakevich, Corey Thompson
Cuts: Tyrel Dodson, Del’Shawn Phillips
Not much needs to be said about Tremaine Edunds and Matt Milano, but what we will say is hopefully this duo starts to get their well-deserve national recognition they haven’t gotten yet. Buffalo knows how good both are.
AJ Klein isn’t the pass rusher Lorenzo Alexander was, but he can replace him in coverage and might even be a better run stopper. Corey Thompson has shown versatility to spell both Edmunds and Milano over the recent years, while also jumping on special teams. Speaking of which, Tyler Matakevich will likely only see time as a special teamer. During his career he’s been great there, but not a great linebacker.
The final spot might come down to Vosean Joseph and Tyrel Dodson. Joseph was a rookie last season but missed the entire year due to injury and the Bills stuck by Dodson during his off-field situation. Without the preseason, which Joseph did take part in last year before injury, he could be the favorite here.
