PRBills Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 If we can get him in for under 9 or 10 a year I would be happy. I think he is a decent cb on par with Gilmore. My biggest concern is injury, as history has shown that he is less durable then Gilmore. Does anyone know what his asking price/value is roughly? Obviously that is the biggest factor on picking him up. Based on past history, I would hope that the deal wouldnt be more then 2-3 years with a low guarentee.

boyst Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Thanks Boyst, guess I won't paste his tweets anymore. Yolo... gathered that from Boyst, I didn't know. When the Sabres got Okposo he nailed it first. i'm a nobody so my opinion doesn't matter - but in the shoutbox i think it's alright. there is usually such wild conversation there it can only provide more fodder, at the least.

Strethor Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 He would be a great pickup for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 If healthy he's better bang for buck than Gilmore. Plus one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EersN'Bills Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) Bring him in as depth behind seymore. Maybe nickle guy??? Oh yeah, that's right Graham was cut. I had assumed he would move to back to corner with Hyde being signed. And he's been injured so often I've almost forgotten about him.

frogger Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) If he comes here, he starts, he's got more fight in him than Gilmore. Injuries have slowed his career thus far, 1 year deal worth 6 or 7 million seems right. Edited March 12, 2017 by frogger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) I would be fine with bringing Corey White back and drafting one over bringing in Claiborne. at 6 million.i meant to add Edited March 12, 2017 by 3rdand12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claiborne, if healthy, has pro bowl talent. It would be a gamble but one worth taking on a prove it deal.

It would be a gamble but one worth taking on a prove it deal. when gambling you have to account for the risk. In this case. injury. at that dollar point you are depending on this guy to play. I too would like to get him here. But at a price where I still get another fellow who can play a couple game on the boundary. Obviously i am risk adverse , And terrible gambler !

Ittakestime Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I'm over guys that are always injured. I wouldn't even bother. You need guys that are going to be on the field. When a guy has missed this much time in his career, just forget about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I think we bring back White, he wasn't stellar, but he's cheap and has the size you look for in a cover 2 cover 3 corner As long as they are players that fit the defense all for it Just give me player's that are scheme fit and give it 100 percent every play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I think we bring back White, he wasn't stellar, but he's cheap and has the size you look for in a cover 2 cover 3 corner Worse case he can definitely back up. or package plays. He wants to come back from some of the quotes i have read. One thing for sure, this Defense is not going to look like the last two years have. I will call that a positive ! If they bring in Morris. good. But he will need to earn his keep. as mentioned upstream. Verner might have been the better scheme choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Claiborne is not a nickel guy. He is a boundary corner and if the Bills sign him he almost certainly starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnC Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Incarcerated bob posted this the other day that Bills were talking to him. Had to delete because I was made aware we weren't allowed to post anything from him. I wasn't aware that we had any standards to be disqualified from? I am flummoxed!
