Dkollidas Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 If he’s cut after this season, could he re-unite with McDermott in Buffalo? McDermott was his DC during his time in Carolina. I’m sure he’s lost a bit at age 31, but on a lower, short-term contract, with the coach who coached him into one of the best defensive players in the league for a time, it could be worth a shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 He really could be ideal opposite Tre. I haven’t watched him much this season so I can’t comment if he’s been playing well or not. Levi has been solid, but susceptible to breakdowns. Norman could bring more consistency and hopefully some turnovers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Not opposed to a veteran opposite Tre. But free agency dollars have to be spent on one or two of the following DE, OLB, and WR. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QB Bills Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Kevin Johnson should be opposite White from now on and if Levi Wallace never sees the field again it'll be too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Norman has been a locker room issue at times not sure if he fits the process. I wouldn't be opposed to a one year deal at a cheap contract but has risks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artem Lipatov Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Looking to progress of White and and regress of Norman outside Carolina I think McDermott really can develop corners. Levi was burnt in Cleveland many times. I hope for Johnson and new additions in offseason. Imagine Bills could still have Gilmore or Darby. One of them + Tre White, Poyer and Hyde = it would be scary secondary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a little harsh. Levi and Johnson are not the answer at CB2 but are decent depth players though Johnson at this point looks to be the better option. Norman is superior to both but I question his desire. Once players get paid and start losing they check in, like Norman and Harris Jr. for that matter. A rejuvenated and motivated Norman or Harris Jr. would be a nice compliment to Tre. Edited November 25, 2019 by billsbackto81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Should be interesting how the Bills game plan for Gallup this Thanksgiving. As far as Norman....he's not an upgrade of what we have now. He's been horrible this year and should hang up his cleats. PFF has him ranked as #110 out of 116 CB's. He'd pry retire at halftime our 2nd game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been on the decline the last couple of years and the headache doesn't equate with the talent level at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levi has had some good games and as of late some really bad games. He is in year 2 imo we shouldnt quit on him however he really has to earn some playing time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay the course. I totally agree. But with $80M in cap space this off-season, maybe a 1-2yr deal at $5M-$7M or something like that works. if they did it I’d believe it’s more something along the lines of a short term to give us an extra advantage against teams like NE, KC etc. The team has done a really nice job of building a good room, which should help temper Norman if he becomes an issue. They've also built strong depth throughout the lineup, with CB being among those positions. Wallace will be back next year and I could totally see Kevin Johnson staying, and possibly a rookie drafted as well. So if it didn’t work, they would have backup plans. This wouldn't be a 3-4yr deal with lots of guarantees. It would be a 1-2yr deal with lots of incentives for playtime and good play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I'm more inclined to add a CB via the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
