Joe Marino· Jul 24, 2026

Marino gives his pre-training-camp 53-man roster projection for the Buffalo Bills, naming who makes the roster at each position group, who gets cut or lands on the practice squad, and a few depth-chart calls (Josh Allen as starter, Tommy Doman winning the punting job).

“So as a drafted punter, my expectation is that Tommy Doman beats out Mitch Wisnowski.”

80 checkable claims — 77 roster spot calls and 3 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.

It names 78 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

48 of 80 have settled so far, averaging 97.9 out of 100, against 81.3 for a naive guess at the same calls.

Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.

Each one is scored on its own against the published methodology. A pundit naming several outcomes is graded on each, not on all-or-nothing.
