Sierra, you're an intelligent poster and I usually agree with you.  But not here.  

 

According to one source, opposing QBs have a 121.9 quarterback rating when targeting whoever Tre is covering.  If I'm a QB and I need a third-down conversion, I'm throwing to Tre's guy.  

 

Maybe Tre's dealing with something and will improve as the season progresses?  I doubt if that's the case, but as a Bills fan, I can only fill my days with hope.  

Not sure what your source is but Pro Football Reference has it at 101.6.  It also says in 4 games he's given up under 100 yards and 1 TD.  Diving deeper he's top ten for CB's giving up under 7 yards per completion and only 5 yards per target.  I could only find one CB who had started 4 games or more who had given up less yardage.  https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/W/WhitTr01.htm#all_adv_defense

I don't know what my source was either - just some article that showed up in my news feed.  Some of the other data you share makes me feel a bit better about Tre.  I'm cautiously backing away from the cliff now.  Thanks.  Though I'm still not seeing the Tre of old.  

 

Update: I just found the article, "Bills Veteran Already Looks Finished One Month Into 2025 Season."

We just signed Spector to the PS.  He is a dark horse favorite.

I’m happy for him. Tre’ is  playing solid football and I’d say he’s successfully returned to form this season after a challenging period of back-to-back injuries. Having a full offseason of work without injury limitations and working back to game speed, he’s improved with each passing game.

Tre is such a good fit in this scheme even though he’s not in his prime anymore.  Makes me even more mad about slay lol I think he woulda been the same

Tre has been great all around, and downright spectacular at times. It's amazing considering his age and the injuries he has experienced. I loved the guy his first stretch in Buffalo, but now I think he's encroaching on Wall of Fame territory!

Did he? Because all I remember from that Ravens game was him being beat by Keon friggin' Coleman and drawing a PI flag to prevent more.

 

Tre changes nothing. He either makes the squad as depth, in which case Dane Jackson or Ja'Marcus Ingram is gone, or he's cut after Camp. But in no way is he someone they're relying on, in my opinion.

Or maybe he’ll be a player that we rely on and helps us win playoff games with extremely clutch plays.

No, because he played last year. With the Rams he was still recovering. 

 

So he has a normal off-season conditioning program as opposed to rehab

 

He is also a scheme fit and familiar with Buffalo

 

The rams were asking him to be cb1 right after 2 major injuries, we are not 

***** yeah no receipts for me

I just really wanted to post on page 27! 😃 of this thread…

But should we be talking about Tre White as an All-time great Bills player?!?  the dude is a baller and has put his heart and soul into Buffalo! And he does it all with a comedic edge that I love!!! Ball out 27!!

The context of the "someone they're not relying on" and "Tre changes nothing" was posted on 4/17 and in terms of what we'd do in the Draft a week from that day.

 

Where it was proven correct when we still spent our 1st Round Draft Pick on *checks notes* a Cornerback.

 

I know you're all riled up about his performance yesterday and looking to pull receipts and laugh. But maybe go after the people who truly said it was a terrible signing and were outwardly against it.

 

My take was just that his signing wasn't closing the door on our Draft plans. And that he'd prove his worth (he did) and make the team meaning Dane/ingram wouldn't (Dane didn't) or he'd look like he did in 2024 and be cut. Glad it was the former and he exceeded expectations.

Yeah, I know when it was posted.  There was no context of “the draft” within the conversation.  But whatever makes you feel correct.  
 

Our season might over over already if it weren’t for him.  We relied on him and he changed everything.

Even Tre last stint here after the injury he was still asked to be our number one corner 

 

Now we're asking him to be the #2 which gives him more favorable matchups...

 

We also don't ask him to spotlight receivers across the field as much as we used to.. that goes to Bedford now majority 

 

So we're asking him to do less which has increased his productivity

It's not what "makes me feel correct". It's what I was referring to. A week before the Draft, pretty much all of my posts (and most everyone else's) are made in terms of the Draft and building the roster. I shouldn't have to preface during that time "btw I'm referring to the Draft".

 

If I felt Tre was a terrible signing and wouldn't make the roster, I wouldn't say "Tre changes nothing". I'd say it's a sh-t signing that shouldn't have been made and he won't make the roster. Clearly I was talking about roster building.

 

That said, has he exceeded my expectations? Yes, he has. I had my doubts we'd ever see what we saw from him last week, though I didn't even mention that. But I didn't hate the signing. At the time I felt it was a decent depth/mentor move.

 

And by the way, if I were you, I wouldn't be trying to dunk on people when you said this yourself in this very thread:

 might be a good deal.  Might be a bad deal.  Either way, I love Tre White.  Always will. Considering our current CB room, I’m glad he’s a Bill.  I’m not confidant that he’ll be any good tho 😔

The year of that second major injury he actually looked a lot better than the year prior which must’ve made it hurt so much more for him.  Seemed like he had finally battled back and was playing like himself again
