I mean the sack fumble vs Lamar might have been one of the biggest plays of the season. That said it's not Hamlin's fault for the front office not bringing in someone good enough to take he job. What I wouldn't give for a decent safety who has played some CB somewhere along the way, enough to be able to cover someone in man or zone.

Williams was actually drafted as a corner but moved to safety (as someone noted). Pretty sure Darby was a safety and picked fairly late. He started for Smith in the SB because of injury. Don't forget Winfield. I'm also hoping the CB that our front office remembers most is White rather than Elam when drafting and I hope that makes them pick Amos.

Correct me if I'm wrong or if this has already been gone over but if we cut him we would have been on the hook for 4 mil but trading him we are only on the hook for a small (relatively) part of that?

Someone brought up that Floyd disappeared when we needed him at the end of the season and the playoffs and someone gave the excuse he was injured, but argues for Floyd and against Bosa. While you are absolutely right that Floyd has not missed a game I still see a decent amount of irony in arguing for someone who disappeared because in their own words "he was injured" and then arguing against someone because they have been injured. The hope in any and all cases is that the person you are signing is healthy come playoffs and by the same token anyone can get hurt no matter their history. We endure that year after year.

So you're saying Floyd had an injury problem ..........

Look what the Pats are paying Milton Williams ....... Larry's looking pretty good.

Not something I'd plan my season around but you could do worse that Biggers at DT (run stopper) in the late (6th or 7th) rounds. I hope Collins is there. Could it be rotation based on who we are playing? Run heavy is a different look than a passing team?

Still hanging my hope on Amos, Collins, and Mukuba. This signing just solidifies we need a plug at DT and it wouldn't hurt if they were cheap like a draft pick.

Let's just peek at his last game probably what, 2 months ago? Bosa in the playoffs with 2 tackles, a sack, and 3 QB pressures. Guess he's got nothing left.

I get it. Hell Benford has injury concerns at times also and he's the next guy we'll be resigning.

We certainly wouldn't want to sign someone who gets injured .............. meanwhile Bosa played in more games than Bernard did last yearl. He's instantly the best pass rusher on the team and if it doesn't work out he's off the books next year.

Guess the debate is over and the answer is yes. Papers are signed so for now I'm going to be excited and hope for the best.

Name me the Bill's players who have had 10 sacks or more in the last 10 years.

We lost two veterans in Cooper and Hollins. Even if they draft someone I'm not surprised they signed someone like Palmer. He's got potential. I hope he's more Hollins than Sherfield.

Your picture is missing but I got it now.

Shaq Lawson would come do the same job for next to nothing ............ I'm kidding ............ or am I ?

No we want him throwing to Kincaid, or deep to Diggs, or into the end zone for Shakir with Diggs running underneath ............ damn it. Ok Palmer it is.

or a late swing on another Tennessee WR with some wheels .......

There's a path to believe he could be. His catch percentage is about 10% better on average. Drop percentage is lower. Palmer has a 70 catch season but Davis was clearly almost exclusively a deep ball guy so he was never going to catch 70 balls. What we need is a guy who can take one on one coverage and produce catches outside. Hopefully he fairs better than MVS.

If it's any consolation Pro Football Reference has him at a 5% drop rate with 3 out of 4 years with 4 drops or less.

Just looking at his game logs and snap counts from each season. Even though he was injured for much of his 2023 season he was pretty dam good in the games he did play and against some pretty decent competition. Last year his snaps and targets were all down. He had virtually the same amount of targets (and catches) over 10 games in 2023 as he did in 16 games in 2024.

Emmanwori will be gone well before 30 which is fine because we need a better all around cover guy anyways. Amos in the first, Collins and Mukuba in the second. I like the other picks although I would have tried for Nohl Williams also. I feel like we have a pretty significant need at CB or just DB's that can cover in general. I'd love a better pass rush but that aside I'd love it if we actually had a thing called coverage sacks.

Amos as the Bill's first pick then Collins. Amos is my favorite CB for our defense and I like Collins as a more finished DT and/or if he was gone Jordan Phillips later in the draft. Hell I'd go Amos then Mukuba and then Phillips and still sign DJ Jones and/or Jonathan Allen if I had my way.

I honestly think if we get better, more consistent, pressure/play from the DT's you will see better sack numbers across the board and especially from the DE's. Groot and AJ can both get to the QB well enough. Less soft coverage and easy 2 step drop throws and some DT's that make stepping up and escaping the pocket a problem I think Groot could really put up some good all around numbers.

Gave this another spin. Could only hope.
