Douglas is probably better than white straight up post white’s acl injury I like PFF as a tool to see if the the grades match the eye test. Not normally as a stand alone measurements. That said...he already knows to look for the ball when playing Tua. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanForever19 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 I dig the compensation. Especially since we had an extra 3rd in compensation for Edmunds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The name alone was stuck in my head the 1st time I heard it. Good trade! I think Liam Neeson played him in a Batman movie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could certainly do worse. Welcome to Buffalo Rasul Whoever thought Surtain was gonna be easy to get is utterly clueless about what it costs to acquire a 1st team All Pro CB on his rookie deal. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Just now, gonzo1105 said: He was a journeyman for quite a while but he seems to have found out how to play once he got to Green Bay. He unlocked or figured out something. Lets hope that continues in Buffalo. For the most part I trust McD's DB evaluation skills. I question a lot of roster moves, but I think I will sit tight and see how this one plays out. I have a feeling he will be a player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsSbSoon Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Not too thrilled about giving up a 3rd for a 29 yr old corner next year, but he is a solid get for us Edited October 31, 2023 by BillsSbSoon 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastMaster Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 2 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: I don't think he is an upgrade on our starters. Admittedly haven't seen a lot of Green Bay this season, but have seen a lot of Douglas since he came out of that good 2017 draft class. The Eagles ended up cutting him, 3 years after spending a 3rd on him because teams CONSTANTLY targeted him then he bounced around practice squads before sticking in Green Bay. No team in the NFL has misevaluated DBs as consistently as Green Bay in the past decade. For a 3rd with a 5th coming back I really do not like this. I think he is a better fit in our scheme than Elam but he is a lateral move from Jackson and Benford for me. Maybe he has suddenly improved a ton and will prove me wrong but man I hate this deal. He has improved vastly from when he was in Philly It was like a light went on for him when he went to GB You are judging him based off the old information you had from what you saw when he was with the Eagles. He's not the same player, and we usually get the best from corners when they get integrated into this scheme. He's an upgrade over Dane, and maybe even Benford 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still 15 minutes left maybe a DT or LB is in play Flip a 5th and grab Harrison from the Vikings?😉 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Positive Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 You have to assume that Beane was working on Johnson all day, but had a backup plan in place for Douglas in case that didn't work out. Well played. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyDays Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 4 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: He may have. But GB are bad at evaluating DBs. I trust him starting there less than him starting in almost any other team. Packers fans are upset and PFF grades him very high. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Dude Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) 3rd rounder way too much for this guy, you might as well just give up first and 3rd for Patrick Surtain.

He;s another tier better than Jalon Johnson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
