Justin Simmons and Eddie Jackson are still available and at this point in free agency, they might be willing to sign 1-year incentive filled contracts after June 1st.
I think we just need to bring in one more veteran boundary cb and we're in decent shape
At safety, I just hope Bishop and Edwards look good in training camp so we don't need to bring back a 33 year old Micah Hyde
There are still a number of positions that could be fortified with some Post June 1st free agent signings.
I think Quinton Morris, KJ Hamler, Toohill, and Ingram are just placeholders for now.
I think Dawkins will be gone and replaced by a 1st round rookie. Out of the interior guys, Torrence is the most likely to remain with the team on his rookie contract. Spencer Brown is facing a make-or-break season and will only be extended if he can stay healthy and improve his pass protection.
Rookie
?
Van Pran-Granger?
Torrence
Brown?
I think the lack of big signings or high draft picks at the cb position was a sign that the coaching staff has some level of trust in Elam as the 3rd outside cornerback. Training camp and preseason will be even more important this year with all the position battles and a bigger rookie class than most years (10 picks) and a ton of UDFA's.
The Keon Coleman pick makes Deebo even less of an option for the Bills. If we sign a wr, it will probably be one of the available free agents like OBJ, Gallup, Boyd, Chark, or Michael Thomas for a 1-year deal with a null year to lessen the cap hit.
I'm not too worried about the safety position because Poyer and Hyde were noticeably slower last year, yet we still had a top ranked defense.
I think Rapp is the odd man out at safety. He showed very little in the way of coverage skills for us last season and I was surprised that he was re-signed. He'll still probably get some reps as a big nickel and in 3 safety looks.
I'm more worried about our depth at outside cornerback considering our only option behind Benford and Douglas is Kaiir "Healthy Scratch" Elam
I think Coleman could have fallen to the 3rd round if the Bills didn't take him at #33 and we somehow got only one receiver from a historically deep draft at the position.
However, I do like most of the other picks and I think Ray Davis will be a beast.
