28 Offense, 22 Defense and three Special Teams.

-What pops to most people is the release of 2008 second-round draft pick WR James Hardy.

It's not that it came as a surprise, but whenever someone drafted in the second round is released less than three years into his career it's a little disappointing. 

When you think about it, the new Bills coaching staff had no allegiance to Hardy, and to be perfectly honest, he did nothing in the preseason to warrant a spot on the 2010 roster. 

-I'm a little surprised with

Chad Jackson. He's a big body, is fast enough to be a possession guy, and had a respectable camp and preseason outside of a few drops.

Maybe Donald Jones' prowess on special teams is what squeezed him onto the final roster. Sad for the former second-round pick Jackson, but great for the wide receiver from Youngstown State. 

-Joique Bell and Chad Simpson. I'll get to the practice squad in a minute, but I really thought Bell could crack the final roster. As for Simpson, he's an above average special teamer, but a lot of people thought he could make the Week One lineup. 

- I'm fine with everything else because:

I think Levi Brown, Naaman Roosevelt, Joique Bell, Nick Hennessey, Jason Watkins and Ellis Lankster could be placed on the practice squad. They're all young players with potential, some of whom could see time on the field this year.
