Tre White is the Best Player On the Bills Now


Domdab99

Recommended Posts

For the last few years, it was obviously Shady.

 

But Tre'Davious White has now taken over the mantle. The guy is now an elite, shut-down corner. 

 

Stefon Diggs had 4 catches for 17 yards.  

 

Even in garbage time, Cousins kept going to Thielen, who had 14 for 105. Why? Because Diggs - one of the slipperiest route-runners in the league - couldn't get open. 

 

Damn impressive. 

 

***

 

The Bills have got their No. 1 CB. 

They've got their LT.

They've got their LBs.

They've got their safeties.

 

And yes, I think it's safe to say, they've now got their QB. 

 

One more year, a few more key positions filled, and this team will really be a force to be reckoned with.

In the meantime, keep learning how to win and grow together as a team. If our D comes to play every Sunday like they did this past Sunday, we're going to surprise some people and establish a good foundation moving forward.

Agreed. He is, hands down, a shut-down corner. Also agree with your assessment of what they have. Many cornerstones are in place and I, for one, love the way they’re building this team, regardless of the chaff received from many fans. 

 

It is now, I believe officially, Tre’s Island! ?

Tre is awesome.  He is a perfect combination of size, speed, and tackling.  He is not elite at any of those characteristics but he may be the best combination of all three the Bills have ever had.  Winfield was the best tackler by far, Clements was best big corner, and McKelvin or McGee probably the fastest.  None of them were the complete package though Winfield was truly exceptional for a long time.  Tre has a chance to quickly move up the Bills all-time DB list if he continues to play as he has in his short career to date.

I loved seeing that, that was some funny ****. I've been hesitant to get a Jersey because they all get traded or cut, but I'm really considering a white Jersey. He can play and has the confidence you want out of a corner.

Yes , Tre White is the best player on this team today...maybe he won’t be by December if JA keeps developing..

 

They better re-sign Tre when he is off his rookie deal...Pay him the highest CB deal if he deserves it at the time..

 

How good could this team be by 2022? Hopefully one trophy in the vault and another one on the way...

I think Shady is still really good but I agree and I said it after the LA game. Tre White is the best player on this team. 

 

Not ready to hail Josh yet - encouraging but just too early, similarly with Edmunds (still up and down) and I am slightly worried by Dion's start to the year. He isn't quite playing up to his best 2017 form yet. Some might be missing Richie and some just seems to be a bit of lower body power loss.

 

I think they have 3 of 5 pieces in the secondary and both the debutant corner and Taron Johnson in the nickel had solid games this past week. So that is back to being somewhat of a strength.

 

Milano is getting better and better he could end up being an absolute steal in the 5th so if Tre can keep trending up there then we have the makings of a dominant LB core for some years to come. 

 

The other units still need some work - Dline needs youth, OL and receivers (including TE) just need more talent.

All those CBs were outstanding, but I think our best CB ever was Butch Byrd.

Just need to do the duct tape mod ;)

He is arguably the best player on the defense but his value to the team and JA's value  to the team even in his rookieness is not the same. I doubt that if this franchise had to trade away either TW or JA even at this point in JA's career that they would trade JA. Franchise QBs are very hard to come by as we all know and this one looks every bit what is hoped for.

We all need some optimism for sure- Tre is at the top of his game and you can tell he loves what he does. Edmunds is coming along nicely too! As much as we like to pile on Zay he has been running crisp routes as of late. Going into next year we have 91 mil (I think) in cap space and ten draft picks. Couple that with, what I believe, is an outstanding coaching staff and we just might make a run or 3! Kyle Williams is still playing solid, expect him to come back for 1 more and see this through. When he is all done, I would love to see Kyle as a coach in some role such as quality etc..

 

Alow me to add- the Pats reign is slowly erroding away.

White is the epitome of a class act. A hard working player who never settles and is always working at his craft. The best thing about it is we have him on his rookie deal for another 3 seasons after this one, assuming we will pick up his 5th year option. Definitely one of my favorite players right now.

Now that we acknowledge that he is the best player on the roster......it's time to trade him......

 

Shut your mouth Young Man and go back to Canada.

 

Seriously thought, please NO!

Yeah I still believe as I always have that White will end up being the better pro than Lattimore.    

 

And yeah we need to see a much larger body of work from Allen.    Even JP Losman had some excellent games and appeared to be developing into a stud under Jauron.    That game JP had in Houston where he threw for 340 yards and 3 TD (including a last minute game-winning TD dime to Peerless Price) appeared to be a for-sure breakout game for him and it was just a mirage.   I think sometimes playing AWAY from home can be easier for a young QB.   Less pressure. 

 

I love Dawkins but not really as a LT.   He might be the league's best LG and would be an excellent RT but not really sure he's ever going to be the technician needed to be an elite LT.   That said.......you don't need an *elite* LT.    The big problem will be that it's going to be hard to justify paying him $15M per year if he doesn't get there and if he's even a middle-of-pack LT someone with junk at LT will pay him that.    

 

Very impressed with Milano.   He's starting to look like the real deal.   If he can prove durable he'll be a hell of a player.   Probably need to lessen his snaps to keep him healthy though, IMO.

Agree except for RT. When they tried him on the right in pre-season last year he really struggled to mirror the movements. I think he is a natural left sider but I completely agree that I think he is a middle of the pack left tackle (and that feels like his ceiling) but could be ELITE at LG.  If I had a shot at a top end LT in either the draft or FA I would take them and slide Dawkins inside. He can hold the fort at LT and not be a disaster but I don't think you are getting prime Jason Peters, or even prime Cordy Glenn play out of him.

The great thing is we now have an owner that will be willing to give him the guaranteed money he will be seeking in his next deal.

 

The Bills have had some very good, first round, CB’s over the years that never stayed past their rookie deal because Mr. Wilson wasn’t willing to give them market value contracts at their position.

IDK if they have the LT. They have a good player there but he's just a slightly above average player. They could use upgrades at all five positions on the line.

Agreed. But let’s come up with something other than the “Island” metaphor since that always reminds me of Revis and the Jest.

 

The Bermuda Tre’angle? Where receivers disappear off the map, never to be heard from again.

That is why I laugh at those who cry over mahommes

 

yes we could have had him

no he would not look this good on our team

no we would not have the 2 first rounders that inevitably turned into Allen and edmunds

gikmore was outta here leaving a huge hole at corner

shut down. Corners extremely hard to find

But we would have still had our original first rounder.  And we would have had all the picks we used to trade up. So, no?

We 10000% could have had Edmunds.  So I don't know what you're talking about.

But then we would have not had josh Allen so I don’t know what YOU are talking about

 

anf before you make the stupid comment that we would not have needed josh we instead thought it would be better to have a shutdown corner

 

not a bad decision teally
