He might be on a pitch count though early on. Again Dane Jackson filled in very well. They need to replace Wallace. I’m pretty sure we’ll see a veteran CB signed soon plus a draft pick or 2. You think Dane did well enough to possibly take over Levi's spot at CB2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well enough to let Wallace walk for pennies. The Bills have wanted to upgrade that position for a while. I think there’s going to be a 1st or 2nd round pick competing with Dane. Plus a veteran. I also think they trust Dane to play if White has a setback. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills DL is looking kind of crowded - DE - Miller, Rousseau, Epenesa, Basham DT - Lotulelei, Jones, Oliver, Settle We have some developmental guys and we should consider picking up another 1TDT if we want to move on from Lotulelei - but Jordan Phillips is NOT a 1TDT I think he's pretty reliable. 1 7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rochesterfan Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 39 minutes ago, Sheneneh Jenkins said: You think Dane did well enough to possibly take over Levi's spot at CB2? Yes. They had Dane playing CB1 and left Wallace as CB2. Sal talked a lot about this. They Bills brass felt very comfortable with having White and essentially Johnson as the de facto #2 covering the slot. The outside CB#2 typically has help with the 2 safeties. In the KC game - multiple times Jackson held his own and Wallace was out of position - including the huge catch at the end. That was on Wallace. They were ready for Dane to take over and they already have younger depth. If things go well and BPA is a CB - all the better, but I think they will look for 1 more CB before the draft, but it does not need to be a big name - just depth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 (edited) Shaq and JP are gonna teach Basham how to up his game. This is one intense front seven now.

For me Dane did well being effectively the number 2 corner and if this team has many glaring needs elsewhere I would roll with him as the CB2 and just draft depth or a cheaper veteran. But for a team with Super Bowl aspirations they will need to burn a pick early at CB or go with a more proven veteran to compete with Dane.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 1 hour ago, HappyDays said: I'm less excited about this than pretty much every other Bills Fan, but the overall structure of this DL is looking really good. It's a much much better group from top to bottom than the mediocrity we got last year. I'm highly ambivalent myself. We're now pretty long in the tooth on DL, and it's hard to develop young guys with veterans taking their snaps. OTOH no question but what the Bills had a better pass rush/pressure in 2019 than since. And I do love the man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For one thing, we were thin in reserves last season, now we're barren. For another, see other post where I pointed out timeline for White to RTP after the 9 month window would be mid-September - the likelihood of re-injury is 7x higher before 9 months. So we need someone who can lock it down until he's back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything can happen between now and then, but I think it's a little more likely they go CB in round 1 instead WR. Also to add ,WR's seem to be a deep class this year.

I'm not sure, but I don't know if there's a vet available that is "proven" enough to be no more than average at best. Like I said though, don't know what will become available later. Guess it depends on what extent one considers "proven" to be. Main point being I'm not sure a vet CB (that's available at this time) is proven enough that would make them not take a CB early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe wrong thread, but Dane Jackson did acquit himself well, and if all of this DL spending (again) doesn't improve the pass rush, then there are bigger issues. The problem is there is 0 guarantee Tre White is ready opening day, or that he immediately returns as Tre White. If Tre misses time, who is the other day 1 starting corner? Who is depth? CB is a huge area of need now for a team with Super Bowl aspirations, and may be relying on journeymen or rookies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daz28 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I think that JP coming back sends a message that if you follow the process, and leave on good terms, there may be a home for you here in the future. Agree or disagree with Beas, he was a distraction to the team. It's been reported that there were "layers" to what was going on, so it's possible that players will take that as an example when coming here.
