That 3rd round pick could be way more important to this team as we will have a lot of holes to fill. I don't know how he wouldn't be starting over Jackson. In my (uneducated) opinion, he's better at almost everything. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer that they try to develop Elam - but there is obviously something going on there. Doesn't seem like it's an option from their POV.

He struggled early in his career but the last two years Douglas has been really good since getting to GB. He has also started a ton with them even though he was a backup other places. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34-78-83 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 He is and has been a starter people. Seriously, watch other games and teams before making your claims. He is 100% for sure better than Dane, and likely Benford too. Might take a couple games to integrate to our system. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the scraps he got into with Stefon and all of the trash talking?!?!

jkeerie Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Just from reading this thread, I now know which posters to totally blow off in their critique of the Bills.

That 3rd round pick could be way more important to this team as we will have a lot of holes to fill. He will absolutely start. He is currently the 12-rated CB this season and on a deal that we can easily extend. A pretty damn good commodity versus an unknown 3rd round pick is a good trade-off to me, especially considering we get a 5 back and will likely recoup the 3 as a comp pick from Edmunds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted October 31, 2023 Author Share Posted October 31, 2023 If we aren’t trading for an elite/elite potential corner, Rasul Douglas is the next best tier. Straight up G who should excel in our scheme. Douglas/Benford makes outside corner, at the very least, solid .. at best, a strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
