Maybe we have a WR we convert to DB - worked well for George Wilson. https://www.buffalobills.com/news/buffalo-bills-agree-to-terms-to-acquire-cb-rasul-douglas-from-green-bay-packers Quote The Bills have agreed to terms to acquire Packers cornerback Rasul Douglas via a trade. Buffalo is sending a 2024 3rd-round pick to Green Bay in exchange for Douglas and a 2024 5th-round pick. At 6-foot-2, 209 pounds, Douglas is a physical and big-bodied defensive back with experience playing on the perimeter and in the slot. After getting signed by Green Bay in 2021, Douglas has recorded 10 interceptions, 32 pass breakups and 174 tackles. Through seven games with the Packers this season, Douglas has one interception, six passes defended and 32 total tackles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really good scheme fit. And he’s an aggressive energy player, which is a good thing. He brings an edge to the defense. Won a ring with Philly had 9 picks in last 2.5 seasons … ok ok 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDingus Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Here's a great play from Douglas - Game sealing INT against the 7-0 Cardinals with 15 seconds left, handing them their first loss of the season! Edit: Go to 27:13 in the video. You'll have to click the link since the NFL is stingy about their clips 😅 33 minutes ago, Big Turk said: Douglas is basically like Diggs personality on the D side of the ball...he is going to fit in so well here. Which is going to be great, especially with some of our other leaders out with injury & Von still working his way back into the swing of things. Obviously we still have Hyde & Poyer, but it'll be good to have another highly motivated, highly competitive guy in that locker room.

Signed him to one deal which they re-structured. And then flipped him for a 3rd. Perhaps simply time to cash the investment. Not many in their fanbase would agree however.

Maine-iac Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) 21 and 22 the guy put up 13 pd's and 4 plus picks and a forced fumble per year. He even had 2 TD's to boot. Whatever he did before that I don't care. He's proven that he get's it and that in the right defense he's a problem for offenses. If he fits this defense he looks like a great starter and he seems like a perfect fit. Edited October 31, 2023 by Maine-iac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 2 hours ago, Big Turk said: That doesn't Gibe with PFF's coverage grade ranking him 12th. I wonder if being the closest defender even playing zone counts as being targeted. I like PFF and what they do, but their ratings for certain positions are terrible. CB rankings are as bad as you get because they only grade plays where the CB’s coverage responsibility is targeted by a pass (which is absurd IMO). I’m not ripping the move or player, just PFF’s CB ratings. For the record I’m glad we made at least one move. Douglas should be able to help. He’s a competent, experienced mid-tier starter at CB, which is among the things we needed. While we gave up a fairly valuable 3rd round draft pick, at least we got back GB’s 5th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's our current 3rd pick. It’s being reported by multiple sources that the 49ers traded one of their two upcoming 3rd round comp picks for Chase Young. https://twitter.com/MaioccoNBCS/status/1719434535698616499?s=20 https://twitter.com/albertbreer/status/1719428975250768379?s=61&t=mvFwLU5P2NuqNnOmVpYtwg https://abcnews.go.com/Sports/commanders-trade-chase-young-49ers-round-pick/story?id=104524725#:~:text=The 49ers are projected to,sent to Washington for Young. So maybe you can trade them before they are officially issued? Unless it’s being reported wrong.

So that pick is a certainty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
