Addison could be cut post June 1st. Doubt it...he took a paycut in exchange for guaranteed salary this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Levi ain't half bad if he can stay healthy. But I would be fine with a CB in 3, though I prefer a nice, giant tub of goo! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenboy81 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 What a draft so far. Our pass rush was terrible, the worst part of this team. Jerry hughes was about it. Now star will be back and secondary is gonna rock when QBs don't have all day 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsGospel Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 We got 10 sacks from our 2 starting veteran DE's, hopefully this lights a serious fire under them. Message has been sent to be better or you'll be replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 This dude ranked 2nd on Bruce Feldman's "Freaks List" https://theathletic.com/1938659/2020/07/21/bruce-feldmans-freaks-list-2019-college-football-top-athletic-performances-2/ 2. Carlos Basham Jr., Wake Forest, defensive end Freakiest attribute: Pick one One of the best-kept secrets in college football, Basham is a dominant player with 31 career TFLs and 15.5 sacks. He made first-team All-ACC in 2019 with 18 TFLs and 11 sacks. Basham’s measurables stack up well with any of the Freak D-linemen that Clemson or NC State have produced in recent years. The 6-3½, 280-pounder benches more than 400 pounds and squats more than 700. Even more impressive, he’s vertical jumped more than 36 inches and clocked a 4.21 in the short shuttle, which would eclipse any time by a guy his size at this year’s NFL combine. The dude runs so well that Wake even has him on its kickoff team. 5 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 We really don't need to get any better on offense - we were top 3. Sure, our running game wasn't all that, but it's not like that slowed us down too much. It was tough watching a D that couldn't get pressure on the passer last year. Even during the drought, it was the one thing the Bills were good at. Now, they've addressed that. I mean - Rousseau, Oliver, Epenesa, Basham. A really young, talented crew that could be anchoring a SB-contending defense for years to come. Color me stoked. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Could mean one of these two will have a hang nail in training camp and placed on IR?? There was another thread discussing which D lineman will be cut as we had one extra and was easy to cut or trade one of them without losing very much. Now with two, will be tougher. Don't know much about the contracts of Hughes or Addison, know they are both FA after this season, but how much would dead money if either is cut before this year.

whatdrought Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Okay so here’s our DL as of now: we got Efa and we got Epy, we got Eddy and we got Rous. We got a star, and we got some boogie. There’s a Harry and Jerry and don’t forget Mario! There’s a lot to work with there, but I don’t have the mental energy to get this more organized. Some great nicknames though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion it should be a wake up call to Oliver. He obviously won't be cut but with back to back picks that can generate pressure from the 3 tech. Oliver isn't guaranteed his 5th year.

Interesting pick taking another dline man. I wanted Creed Humphrey there. I know. So did I. But this guy looks good and the Bills need a better pass rush. Sucks that KC got him.

There’s no reason to waste premium assets on pass rushers. Even the best pass rushers barely get there. Might as well sure up the coverage or interior run defense.
