Cowboys waive Elam

[finn]

All that talent and nada. Yet it could be that he has poor proprioception: awareness in space. Mine is pretty poor, too. I had to quit ultimate frisbee and basketball because I kept smashing into people. If that's the case, I have far more sympathy for him that Coleman, who seems to have talent but is either stupid, apathetic, or strikingly immature, none of which reflects well on his character. 

[transient]

Well, Beane and this FO may not be very good at identifying talent, but they certainly are astute at figuring out when they blew it. 😒

Why should take training camp practice reports with a grain of salt. He was the training camp darling this year for cowboys. Bills have plenty of those. Season starts and they play exactly as you would expect

don’t you know anything ? 🙂

Ah that's right. The robbers are their super fans. My bad all. That's...that one's on me.

[Buffalo Ballin]

We wish the best for Kaiir Elam in his personal and professional life, outside of the NFL. Happy trails.

Way to turn a 1sr round pick into a 7th Beane.  Nice one

He’s a magician!

 

For some reason I see Coleman’s future and another bottom rounder for us 🙄

You just know he’s one injury away from our practice squad. 

[Rousseauisnoschmo]

He was the best player in training camp and had never been a part of such a magical organization. I can't believe it.

[gonzo1105]

He was not that good in college and he was even worse in the pros: yes it was a wasted pick but at least the Bills got something for him. 
 

So far the trade is: 

 

Cowboys receive: 

Kaiir Elam CB

Ajani Cornelius OT

 

Bills receive: 

Jordan Hancock DB

2026 7th rounder TBD

I laughed at it was funny, yet, domestic violence is nothing to laugh about.

 

Between Elam, and Coleman, way to go Beane.  My gosh.

Don't forget about boogie basham and Cody ford.

Can he coach?

Can he catch the ball or get separation? Cuz someone oth there think we should make him but that someone is not me.

I prefer 98 year old Tre white to this dude. 

agree… I thought Tre played pretty decently against Houston on Thursday TBH

[nedboy7]

Kair’s failures bum me out.  Hope something changes for him.  

[RobbRiddick]

Convert him to a WR and he can become a deadly duo with Keon. 

[Steptide]

Man I swear if I see a tweet tomorrow that says "the bills have signed kylar Elam to the practice squad"........

As I recall, he has had a couple INTs, so his hands aren't terrible.  As for getting separation - Just say "Hey Kair, stay near that DB over there."  Give him a couple seconds, & they'll be separated.

[Nuncha]

LOL before the season started Elam was the best thing on earth.  They found out fast.  Thanks for the draft pick Jerry.

yeah, you’re right it is nice to get something.  But you can almost always get something for a 1st round pick on rookie deal.  This is another bean blunder.  And why we have 0 elite talent outside of Allen and Cook. Thus why we loose in the playoffs every year. 

[BearNorth]

PFF ranks Elam 61 amongst cornerbacks.  Bills CB's are Taron at 69, Benford at 74, Tre' at 86.  Hairston would be at 39 if he had played enough to qualify.
