I think Zimmer > Butler. I also think it might be tough (and I usually dont think its tough) to get him to PS, since he was claimed at one point last season.

BuffaloRebound Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 If they’re only keeping 4 DT’s, no way 2 of those can be Star and Butler as proven by what just happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillips is a feel-good story to Kyle Williams fans, only he’s no Kyle Williams. Zimmer has made one play while getting blown up on all others. Phillips bulk will be huge to get the LBs going. 8 minutes ago, YattaOkasan said: Thanks. I think Zimmer > Butler.

Zimmer is an undersized DT that any team could have signed for multiple years, and has always ended in the same spot. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately, I don't agree cause I havent see Butler do it well, but we shall see very soon what the coaching staff thinks. I would also note cap impact for both these players would strongly favor Zimmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said it up thread but Zimmer and Butler also sorta play different positions. At 1 Tech its sorta Butler versus Harry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His contract clock is ticking. Not to question, but when you say he will be gone in a year - a year from when? He is under contract this year and next year already - so are you saying he will be gone in one year from today - prior to 2022 season? Are you saying he will be gone after next years season - so a year and a half - end of the 2022 season? Are you suggesting he will be traded? I understand people wanting to move on - I do not understand the time frame you are looking at - since his contract runs through the 2022 season and the coaching staff likes him - I am going out on a limb to say he will be on the Bills this year and next year. Then there is the possibility that the Bills give him a contract extension- so it could be longer - so minimally I see 2 years and potentially more. Not sure I only see him lasting this year and then the Bills moving - so I think I disagree with your original timeline.

ChronicAndKnuckles Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 (edited) And all of the sudden we are thin at defensive tackle. Good thing we are facing the Steelers and not the Titans.

machine gun kelly Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 If Edmunds has a good year by their standards, not ours (myself not included as I don’t see him as badly as many of you), he’ll get an extension. This has been discussed on many outlets, tv, radio, etc. he is not a downhill smack you Ray Lewis type. The Bills seem to want him rangy, sideline to sideline guy and covering certain spots against TE’s etc. Im not an Edmunds fan, I just don’t have the vitriol as some on the board. I respect you’re opinions, just I look at him from a different lens. He’ll definitely need to show improvement this year to get that extension. It seems like the coaches like his play though from what I can tell in small snipits from McD, Frazier, and Beane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
