Zimmer was an UDFA and is on his 6th team (Bils twcie) including a stint in the CFL. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Zimmer Zimmer overachieved for his pedigree, can't argue that. But let's not get carried away with his importance to the team. He jumped on a fumble and ran fast down the field on an INT return in the playoffs. I'd be surprised if he made the roster this season based on the depth of our D-Line. If he does, bye bye Harrison Phillips.

But saying an UDFA on his sixth team can't make an impact is just wrong. Is it likely? No. Was the impact truly meaningful? Who knows. As for UDFA on their sixth team. How about Lorenzo Alexander? Bills were his sixth team. He made second team All-Pro with the Bills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He jumped on a fumble late in the Chiefs game in Buffalo where the ball carrier was ruled down after replay........but had that been ruled a fumble they would have had the ball deep in Chiefs territory with a chance to tie the game with a TD and 2 point conversion. He saved the game against NE with that forced fumble on Cam just as the Pats were about to score a TD at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not the biggest Zimmer fan, but you can never underestimate the importance of having guys that make impact plays to win games. That’s why for my money, I will take Nate Clements over Antoine Winfield as Bills… and I will take Ryan Denney over Chris Kelsay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimmer also had 7 QB hits playing just 26% of the defensive snaps...........more than Ed Oliver had(6) in more than double the amount of snaps. He was much more productive per play than Oliver in the tackling stats except sacks........Oliver had 3 to Zimmer's 1. That's not to knock Oliver.........he was as good as anyone on the line last year........but Zimmer was actually quite productive........it wasn't just those couple very big plays in very big games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
