It's really not that big of a deal. There's a reason they move corners who have gotten too slow to safety. It's an area you can hide if you have enough game knowledge. It's especially if you have great ball skills and play a lot of zone. If Hamlin can stick around long enough to acquire the game knowledge due to playing hard and his ST contributions. I wouldn't be shocked to see a guy like him play into his mid thirties as a contributor.

I'm going to need to see receipts, because I haven't seen any evidence that this is the case. I've seen FAR more mental errors from Rapp, and especially Bishop than Hamlin. No. that's the definition of cheap in today's NFL. He's the 64th highest paid safety. Mike Edwards made 2.8M from us last year to not play at all.

Damar Hamlin is absolutely an NFL caliber safety. You need your eyes checked if you think he's unrosterable. Should he be starting for the Bills? no, probably not, but he's absolutely good enough to be the #3 safety on most teams in the league and a starter on weaker secondaries. His biggest flaw is that he's slow.

Forrest has been in the league for years and done nothing. I think he's far worse than Hamlin base don what I've read and his production. Hancock is currently a CB they want to convert to safety, so not a real threat to push anyone this year. I missed Ownes, so good catch on that. Significant is a wild overstatement on a guy who's done absolutely nothing in 3 out of 4 NFL seasons, and nothing in 2 years.

Camp body, but still weird to me to bring in an 8th pure DT. The fact that Beane has done basically nothing to increase competition at S is the most perplexing non-move of the offseason to me. I 100% agree with the approach to prioritize the front 4, but I would have brought in a couple UDFAs and brought in some cheap options there that have real potential.

Fitzpatrick, and not close. He's the only guy that could come in off injury (although his presence might ensure the starter has one) and rattle off a string of MVP worthy games, saving a season.

Still the greatest coach in the history of the sport. I wish him no ill will, because I would have cut off fingers to have him be the Bills coach.

We absolutely don't need him but acting like he's washed is silly. He was still a very capable defender last year: https://www.pff.com/nfl/players/jadeveon-clowney/8636 5.5 sacks, 4 Forced Fumbles, 9 TFL, 4 batted passes with a 64% snap count on an atrocious team isn't awful either. He was being paid $10M a year. I think he earned that.

I'd be shocked if the asking price was any lower than 2 1sts. From an in-conference rival who likely will be drafting at the back end of the round, I'd imagine the comp would be quite a bit higher.

They want Rodgers. They wouldn't even be considering that if they weren't in win-now mode. They have a lot of aging veterans, and just traded for Metcalf. Admittedly it's a weird state they're in with the QB. If they can't get Rodger, I'd expect them to make a run at Cousins, or perhaps they'll talk to Tannehill.

How does that logic work?

Pickens was a cancer to the team. Expect them to make a move for a #2. They're in win-now mode. Cooper, Allen, Davis and others are available.

1. Shakir 2. Kincaid 3. Coleman 4. Palmer 5. Cook 6. Johnson 7. Knox 8. Samuel 9. Moore

He'd immediately be no worse than the 2nd best WR on the team. However due to investment, he'd probably slot back in as the 4th. Unfortunately the Samuel cap situation makes it hard to dump him, but he'd be a massive upgrade there. I'd expect Davis to get a shot as a #2 on a needy team.

an inch shorter and 5 lbs heavier will make a guy look bigger. There no way in hell he's 220 at 6'4".
