As is our weekly custom during Buffalo Bills training camp and preseason action, it's time to update our latest 53-man roster projections on the eve of the team's next preseason game. (The Bills host the Minnesota Vikings tomorrow night at Ralph Wilson Stadium.)
In all, this won't look much different than last week's projection, which did contain one major whiff: I had Brian Stahovich in as the punter ahead of Shawn Powell, but that job is now Powell's following Stahovich's release. Four other changes to note: Jeff Tuel, Frank Summers, Antoine Caldwell and Corbin Bryant are in, while Kendall Gaskins, Thomas Welch, Torell Troup and Bryan Scott are out.
