Buffalo Bills sit Taron Johnson in Week 2 as Tre'Davious White returns, bolstering a secondary facing a run-heavy Jets attack. Buffalo could lean into three linebackers to counter the ground game, while Ed Oliver is ruled out and Zion Logue and Keonta Jenkins prepare for season debuts via practice-squad elevations. Curtis Samuel is a healthy scratch again, with Landon Jackson and Chase Lundt inactive alongside Shaq Thompson and Jordan Hancock. Kickoff is 1 p.m. ET on CBS.

Sean Tucker, Curtis Samuel, Chris Rodriguez Jr., Jordan Whittington, Luke Musgrave, Keaton Mitchell and Bucky Irving headline the Week 2 dynasty drop list, a reminder that timing and roster depth drive dynasty value. Tucker and Irving sit behind Bucky Irving in Tampa Bay, making Tucker a clear cut in many leagues. Samuel’s target share has cratered in Buffalo amid a receiver parade, while Washington’s backfield is crowded and Rodriguez isn’t trusted for goal-line work. Whittington’s Rams role is minimal, Musgrave shares a tight end field in Green Bay with Kraft, and Mitchell is displaced by Henry and Hill in Baltimore. The piece flags sunk-costs and focuses on players whose dynasty value no longer warrants a spot, even in deep leagues.

Tyrell Shavers' one-handed TD catch and preseason breakout put him squarely in Buffalo’s 53-man roster conversation, even as the Bills weigh a crowded WR group. He led the preseason in receiving yards (123) and a 58-yard grab, plus kickoff coverage snaps that could swing a final cut. Buffalo is expected to keep five or six receivers, with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer likely locks, leaving 2–3 spots contested with Samuel, Moore and Shenault.

Shavers’ Week 17 TD on a Mitchell Trubisky screen showed big-play upside, while his special-teams impact signals versatility for a depth role. If he makes the roster, his production hinges on injuries to others and how Buffalo deploys a reserve corps around Shakir, Shenault and Palmer. Fantasy managers should watch the WR battle closely into the final cuts.

Bottom line: Shavers has the athleticism and NFL track record to flash as a sleeper, but the odds tilt with the other vets and Palmer’s presence. His upside is real if he lands in a flexible role, but Buffalo could still favour veterans and established targets in a tight cut process.

Buffalo’s final preseason test vs. Tampa Bay doubles as a roster showcase. Mitch Trubisky will look to solidify the QB2 role behind Josh Allen with crisp, low-risk drives and timely throws. Curtis Samuel returns from injury and squads with Tyrell Shavers for WR depth, while Maxwell Hairston and Dane Jackson vie for extra CB spots as Tre'Davious White recovers. Joe Andreessen adds LB depth and Buffalo’s 53-man math tightens around WR/CB competition and special-teams upside.
