buffalover4life Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) I really like the way Dorsey talked about him after Gaines was drafted in the 3rd round. I Trust his talent Evaluation as well Edited March 29, 2018 by buffalover4life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) It was stated on Twitter that Gaines was exposed in Bob Sutton's 3-4 defense last year, similar to EJ Gaines being exposed with the Rams. He was asked to play a lot of man-to-man coverage, which is decidedly not his strength. He is a big and athletic corner, though, and a former 3rd round pick. I expect him to exceed Leonard Johnson's 2017 production in the slot for Buffalo this year. At worst, he'll be worthy depth. Good, cheap, late-FA period signing.

Maybe just a younger more athletic guy? I felt Johnson was very up and down. I thought we would bring him back but we didn't see to be interested. Maybe they we're hoping for someone with more veratility... Johnson couldn't play outside at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RochesterRob Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 1 hour ago, BillsEnthusiast said: Now that that's done, we can focus on trading up. The more I read the more I like the signing. Also, it most likely means a DB will wait until late in the draft for us. Get McD's MLB and watch the defense move into the top 10 in most categories. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Hooks Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Might work out in the zone. If not, it doesn’t hurt. Another body out there competing. Anyone that has a problem with the add obviously doesn’t understand the cap or nfl football teams in general.

I felt that he was a good, hard hitter...but, was a liability in certain situations. I don't think he has all the skills to be a complete Nickel Corner. Teams can do worse than Johnson, but, if you settle on him you are surely aren't trying to get better at the position. 1 hour ago, Tatonka68 said: Scraping the bottom of the barrel.

apuszczalowski Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Bills are just cheap and dont want to have to make new jerseys so they went out and signed another Gaines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan17 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 McDermott has made a lot of secondary players look good. No reason to believe this couldn't be another situation where McDermott maxes out this kids potential. If not, nothing wrong with a potential depth signing.
