Joe Marino· May 1, 2026

Marino gives his first 2026 Buffalo Bills 53-man roster projection, naming which players make the roster at each position, who gets cut, and who wins the starting jobs along the offensive line and at punter.

“So there you have it, a 53 man roster projection where 17 of 50 non specialists are new.”

said on air, transcribed by us · Locked On Bills (podcast) · read the original →

77 checkable claims — 69 roster spot calls and 8 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.

It names 75 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

46 of 77 have settled so far, averaging 93.5 out of 100, against 78.3 for a naive guess at the same calls.

Of the 2 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one.

Who this take is about

77 checkable claims in this take

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.

  • Michael Hoecht to make the roster

    “I'm projecting that he makes the, like, the initial 53, and there's no pup list.”
