The deal is pending a final review of the contract. 10:06 AM - 11 Mar 2019 Guess he isn't out playing Tiny Tennis with Arnold this time unlike the Antonio Brown signing...Arnold probably made him drop and do 10 pushups for that...hahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a great signing, now we can still play at a high level if someone gets injured. The bigger need signings will come. The guy we signed is the one that will get hurt. Now we need to sign another CB to step in and play in the event of injury. Its a vicious cycle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

947 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Levi played well, but is very far from proven. Taron stays in the slot, and you have 3 solid CBs who can play outside. However it plays out regarding who's CB2, we're much better with KJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 The Bills should have a very solid back end to the D. If they find a pass rusher in the draft they could be a very scary defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) I think it's safe to say that we'll probably always draft a CB somewhere each year. We're pretty loaded in the secondary but can always use another quality CB and I wouldn't mind upgrading our Safety depth after Hyde & Poyer.

It may not be necessary, but if they could get a legit top-tier CB at No. 9 overall, that's a no-brainer...they'd have the makings of the best defensive backfield in football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
