Logic Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) 1.) I've been figuring that CB would be the one last spot where they would add a veteran before the draft. 2.) I had to type, copy and paste damn fast to beat YOLO to the punch. Edited April 13, 2021 by Logic 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frat-Train Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Could be a sneaky signing. I remember him cashing in after his big 2017. Solid acquisition in the mold of EJ Gaines, (but with the potential to not get injured by rampant fruit flies and hovering clouds.) 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Just now, Process said: No nothing about him but Diggs did roast him in the playoffs and the colts have a pretty awful pass defense last year. Seen some positive opinions of him from colts fans on twitter though. Carrie isn’t an elite CB but Diggs roasts everyone, just like we can’t decide whether a LB can cover TEs based on how they do vs Travis Kelce 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptnCoke11 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) Solid vet addition probably still draft one fairly high. Need 4 good solid CBs Edited April 13, 2021 by CaptnCoke11 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 This could work out for us in the same way as Kevin Johnson. I do like Dane Jackson though. Still need to find one in the draft though. If we can't get one of the top 3 in Surtain, Horn, or Farley I'd like Paulson Adebo in the 3rd Round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 I don't think Carrie signing would affect draft plans, other than making it so that corner isn't a crying need. Beane seems to sign a low cost veteran cornerback every single year, often late in the offseason. EJ Gaines Vontae Davis Kevin Johnson Josh Norman In any case, it's nice to have a GM who fills all "needs" PRIOR to the draft, so that he can truly take the best player available without feeling the pressure to absolutely HAVE to fill certain positions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEra Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Would love this addition on the cheap. Serviceable depth that is never injured and fits the scheme. Makes so much sense and would be another feather in Beanes cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddyjj Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 So is TJ Carrie a boundary CB? 6'0" and 204 so my guess is outside guy. 2 picks in limited role last year with Colts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 We need to stop the Wallace/ vet nobody wants revolving door at CB2. I’d be very surprised if a CB isn’t selected in first 2 rounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on this blurb from last year maybe not https://www.stampedeblue.com/2020/9/10/21429392/film-room-what-to-expect-from-tj-carrie-as-the-colts-primary-depth-cornerback Where I worry is if he has to fill in for a player like Rock Ya-Sin or Xavier Rhodes on the outside. He just hasn’t shown anything on film to give me confidence in his ability as an outside corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cle23 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Carrie is a completely average corner. Not great, not terrible. He'll have a great game one week and give up an easy TD the next. Solid move as a depth CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Can never have enough corners. I’m even warming up to the idea of one at 30. Not my most favorite option, but still a solid option nonetheless and justifiable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NI Bills Fan Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 With TJ Carrie visiting with the Bills then signing with the Colts again... do you think, in the time he spent talking to Bills recruiters/coaches, he would have gained any key insights into the fine detail of how the Bills defensive scheme works? Information that would be used by the Colts offence next time we play? Genuine question as I'm not sure what format these visits take or what gets talked about.

No. Everyone knows what the Bills defense is trying to do. That's become part of the problem. The scheme and same personnel in the back 7 have been together for a relatively long time now and teams have adjusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly it. I don’t understand how people think signing a one year vet changes anything draft wise. When you’re in the position the Bills are in you draft whomever you believe can be a long term starter, regardless of position. When you have to pay your franchise qb you need talented players holding down spots on low contracts. It’s how you stay viable long term. Blows my mind when people think signing a one year vet, for depth most likely would change anything in their long term plans. Just glad our GM doesn’t seem to share these myopic hot takes.

And they're always adding wrinkles, but I think you're correct. The Bills aren't surprising anyone with their defense. Of course, that's pretty much true for every team.
