Aussie Joe Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 3 hours ago, NewEra said: The value at CB wasn’t there in the draft. It’s not hard to free up 6-8M for next season. Of the teams listed, we give him the best chance at winning a super bowl....and getting revenge on both of his former teams. Makes perfect sense Its not hard to do as we see from other teams, but Beane seems reluctant to do it.. I would support him coming here though on a 1 yr deal... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn’t another cB available even close to as good as nelson is imo. Sherman looked terrible last season compared to the previous year when he had the best pass rush in football. I would never want to see him in man. Imo, if we sign a corner, he has to be at least somewhat capable in man. Sherman isn’t at this stage. If he wants to upgrade our cb, Nelson is his last chance to do so via free agency/draft. Edited May 12, 2021 by NewEra 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Not to be a party pooper, but... Recently on Twitter, Steven Nelson replied to a post by stating that the reason he hasn't signed with any team yet is "absolutely about money". To me, that sounds like no one has offered him what he feels he's worth. I would guess the Bills, with their cap situation as it is, are near the front of the line of "not offering him what he thinks he's worth". Yes, he's gonna have to come down off his asking price if he wants to play this year, but no, I don't see the Bills being the highest bidders when the smoke clears. He seems to want decent money, and I can't imagine Buffalo out-bidding 13 other teams for his services. I hope I'm wrong, because he would make the Bills A LOT better on defense, but that's how I see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 This would be a great signing. Hopefully Beane can sweeten some things up in his contract to get him to come here. Would fill a huge need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo716 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) 2 hours ago, GunnerBill said: It is definitely intentional that Levi plays off pretty much the whole time. The Bills scheme around his limitations and there is always an opportunity for a short completion on his side. That is what they ask him to do, keep it all infront of him, rally and tackle and for the most part he does it well. The Bills want to make every offense go 11 or 12 plays to score and they calculate most will make a mistake somewhere and they will get them off the field if they just avoid the big play. The problem KC pose is they can hit the big play even when that is what you are trying to take away. The question is how much does that make it worth being a bit more boom or bust to play more aggressive coverage? I think it comes back to @Buffalo716's post yesterday. The Bills coach and play what they know and what they believe in. They need to add some wrinkles to that but the second half of the AFCCG confirmed to me that more radical changes to what they are is not the way to go. If they can sprinkle just a little man in against a KC as a different look, fine, I'm all for it. McDermott and co ran man last year on 3rd down at a pretty good clip.. for a zone heaven scheme. he was able to give some different looks as you mentioned He wasn't afraid to man up but it would serve well if we got another corner that can excel in man techniques.. even if he's a package guy Tightening up our zone and getting a better pass rush is more ideal Edited May 12, 2021 by Buffalo716 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) If buffalo extends Allen soon, alot of cash upfront. Move money around to open up cap space this year and next. Could do the same with Edmunds. Edited May 13, 2021 by Mat68 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Costa Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 This would be a excellent signing post draft. Obviously we didn’t draft a guy that can help our back 7 this year. A 4th safety at best. Steve Nelson would start opposite Tre and add nice depth to our CB room. Need to extend someone to create space for Nelson & Jerrel Casey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta hope the rookies and other younger guys can step up and become playmakers..... oh and the offense can figure out how to not ***** the bed against the Chiefs defense. I don’t see them beating out the Chiefs again this year but obviously a lot can change. If the bucks can do it we can do it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blainorama5 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I'm still waiting for Er... ( Didn't do it - was tempted tho - lol ) Nelson would clearly be a good get, but I'm kinda doubting it'll be the Bills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frat-Train Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 If it were us, we would have gotten the same great intel we received on Ertz, before he was traded to us. Done deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastport bills Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Please sign this guy already Beane. This is why you freed up capspace with Diggs' redo. We need this guy and Ertz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
