So do you feel we should have signed a veteran just because of the first game, or are you also concerned about games 2-4? 
 

While I do think the Rams are a different problem than the next 3-4 games I am not sure it was worth the cap dollars to get someone who would have wanted to start all year. 

Yeah good question.. and definitely a reason why I’m not an NFL GM!  To answer your question, I’m definitely concerned about 2-4, and then beyond if Tre is out longer or not back to his health/game.  But my concern is more an uncertainty fear… we’re asking a ton out of some inexperienced players. Don’t know that there’s a great solution… just hope we can apply some massive pressure on D, and the offense puts up big points. Would love nothing more than to see these rookies shut it down on D though!

Bradberry and Gilmore were both FAs.

At first I thought you were being sarcastic..  Unfortunately not.

He will not be able to practice with the team until after the first 4 weeks.  This likely means 6 weeks or more before we see him in a game.  This is not ideal, but survivable.  The priority should be, and seems to be, to make sure he is fully healthy before putting him out there.

First off welcome to the board Southern bills!

Good post.  After the Rams its, Tannehill, Tua and Jackson.  Not exactly 3 QBs putting a ton of pressure on CBs.

The answer was to draft a CB in the first round, then we got a bonus by getting Benford in the 6th, so it may not be the best situation buts it’s manageable

Well said Marck.  They couldn’t know the final on Tre as they had to see the progress.  The Rams are the team to worry about, but that’s over.  We picked two guys in the draft, so what does someone want?

 

If we play man the first week, Elam will be fine.  Dane did fine from thanksgiving through the playoffs:  Elam is certainly better even as a rookie than Wallace.

Get ready for some "bend don't break" cover 2 zone vs the Rams next week. Lots of 6-12 yard catches and trying to take away the big plays. Going to be very frustrating to watch

 

Then don't watch. Hate to see you get frustrated.

What an absolute disaster of an operation this FO did this offseason at the DB position.  Can't believe we are playing the first four games with 2 rookies and a 7th round young DB as our CBs.  

Taron will play one side, Elam on the other. It will be ok.

This is an interesting take. They clearly understood the risk and seems to me upgraded the pass rush and drafted two CBs to compensate.

 

I would hardly term it a disaster of an operation…but feel free to indulge in histrionics if it makes you feel good.

Yes, do you have an actual comment about it because I don't speak emoji.

He was starting most of the year he was let go because he wasn’t that good, his coverage in the KC debacle was a big reason why we lost. They wanted to move on to get a better athlete and upgrade the position. Bringing him back would not have upgraded the position, it left us with the same problem. Can you understand that?

Tre white won't be back until after the bye week after week 5 imho. 

Ike boettger probably back a little after mid season 

To be honest, I think it’s unlikely that White will be back anywhere close to 100% at any point this season. He may play, but I doubt he will be fully confident in his knee and that’s not even factoring in the rust. I think next season is more likely before we see the old Tre White.

Yes let's all just love every move the team makes. Don't have your own thoughts on the situation. Just be a robot 🤖

 

The Bills defense has been built by trying to take away the big play for the last 5 years. Have you even bothered to notice what I assume you have been watching?

 

You are posting like that is some shocking relevation. Have you been frustrated watching them for the past 5 seasons?
