jtothebrown Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Why not ? We do need backfield depth, and i know he will play for the vet minimum. He also stated that hes done protesting during the anthem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeF Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 (edited) On a recent trip, I sat next to Eric's grandfather.. Phenomenal man. PhD in psychology. International traveler and education ambassador. Very tied to LSU. Eric's dad was an NCAA champion hurdler at LSU. They are a great family. Really impressive. Grandpa calls Eric after every game with a critique. I'd be all for this. I think he would get 50-60% of the snaps as a hybrid LB/SS and the Bills would not likely need a slot corner because Hyde could slide down in 3rd and long. Eric has a great skill set and he fits the McBeane mode. Wouldn't mind drafting Justin either. I think McD doesn't see much difference between corner and safety in his scheme...this might be a fit.

H2o Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Wouldn't mind it, but what he's worth in his mind is likely more than what we would be willing to give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hes an excellent player. Wouldnt you rather have him instead of Colt Anderson? Reminder that Colt dropped a sure INT in the playoff game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflaBill Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Good safety, is he a FS or SS? would be great depth. If hes a free in nickel sets Hyde could go to the slot as he has experience playing CB. For the right price definitely.. He should be getting paid though.

He also is refusing to drop his asking price and is insulted that teams think they can "offer her a below market contract" because there hasn't been much demand for his services. Vaccaro is pretty much doing the same thing refusing to drop his price, that's why there are good safeties sitting around unsigned. We're not paying 7M+ to another safety when we have 2 pro bowl caliber ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
