Blank Stare Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Love it. Great depth signing with two aging starting safeties that were banged up a lot last year. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny3410 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Rapp is an urgent safety with positional versatility and on-the-ball production. He should draw interest from clubs that can deploy him in multiple sub-package roles. Rapp can play in the post or split-field, or he can align as an overhang defender in dime. There's disruptive ability here. He produced nine interceptions and 24 pass breakups in his four seasons with the Rams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Have to wonder if Rapp saw the Safety market is a disaster this year, sees what the Bills did with Poyer, and decided to see if he can earn a multi-year contract here for the future by joining the Bills for a year. At least, that's my thought process. Rapp seemed like an ok starter option in free agency. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in cap hell and in way over their heads from a personnel perspective. He Wasn't Cut. He was a FA. He played 4 seasons with the Rams, and they didn't re-sign him, or, he didn't like the contract they offered or didn't want to stay on a re-building team.

Behind our starters it's just... Rapp, and maybe Benford? 1 minute ago, Miyagi-Do Karate said: I would be happy signing anyone not named Jaquan Johnson. He signed in Vegas!

Warriorspikes51 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 good depth if Poyer or Hyde miss games. Also think McDermott could use some 3 safety looks and move Poyer into the box 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Wonder if the Bills are planning on using him in sub packages. Milano and 3 safeties 3 CBs on the back end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Doubt he came here to be a backup who doesn’t see the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) Last year exposed our Safety depth was questionable at best. Also no guarantee Damar returns this year. To me this a good add.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 This could set up re-signing AJ Klein for early down work and go with 3 safeties and 3 CBs on passing downs. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it works other times it doesn't. How he played in a different scheme doesn't mean much as we don't know what they asked him to do. It only matters how he fits and plays in our scheme, not anyone else's. We will find that out soon enough.

hellofellowbillsfans Posted March 27, 2023 Author Share Posted March 27, 2023 this should hold us all over until Hopkins gets traded here! in all seriousness, i bet he's going to be re-signed to a multi-year deal after next year to be the long term starting safety Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players develop. Change of scenery and scheme could help. Just sayin. Ya they probably see him as a scheme fit. Replacing Jaquan Johnson. With Hyde n Poyer being banged up last year, Hamlin being a question mark, why not get that depth. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
