Yes I share your concern. Mike Hughes is a vet CB available in FA that I like as he is affordable and could step in and start with Dane. Also I have to believe OBD is taking a CB in Rd 1 or 2 as well.

Yes more starters loss vs previous off season. Klein replacement likely a draft pick my guess. Wallace and Sanders are also likley to be draftees unless Beane can find a Vet CB in bargain bin. With Tre hurt, another Vet and a Stud rookie CB makes sense. And we know that Dane Jackson can pitch in too.

link please? By my watch Tremaine or Bam Johnson were the guys who had flat coverage

https://nypost.com/2019/08/10/inside-jamison-crowders-heartwarming-bond-with-autistic-brother/ This is a nice profile of Jamison and his relationship with his younger brother (by 9 years) Jamaris, who is non-verbal, has Down Syndrome and is also on the Autistic spectrum. Jamison is a special person

Might I suggest you watch it again. Taron Johnson blitzes so Edmunds has the flat and is late getting there and misses tackle. Tre gets blocked out by Perriman and Poyer overruns to sideline and gets blocked too. Bam Johnson and Taron give chase to no avail.

just sayin...

we dropped 17 players from 2020 to 2021. 25% to 33% turnover seems to be the norm these days

https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-power-rankings-post-2022-nfl-free-agency Dan Hanzus elevates the Bills from previous #3 ranking to #1. Rams drop from 1 to 2, Chiefs from 2 to 3. The "All in" mantra is strong with this one. I would feel better with a true stud CB opposite Tre - likely through draft. Also need a speed WR to play outside and a RG - I am hoping it will be Bates.

I believe that play was what resulted in the shoulder injury...and another Upper body injury... A Bruised Ego

Only 2 KO returns for career. Not a KR by any means. Punts maybe but its been like 5 years since last return.

Russian Defenseman Alexei Kumarov

And a 4.46 a his Pro Day. Lets say 4.51 then?

Yes he did return punts the 1st 3 years in WAS and was a top 10 punt returner for 2 of those years.

Darnold threw it so believe it was home opener in 2021. Bam Johnson giving chase too so not this year. The Covid seasons are all blurred for me too 😎

Shady played here in 2018 with Josh. I get your point but a top 3 RB does not equate to SB. Now a top 3 QB....

Thurman first two years - 505 carries for 2126 yds and 8 rushing TDs. Also 78 catches for 877 Yds and 6 TDs. Devin 1st 3 years - 495 carries for 2332 yds and 11 rushing TDs. Also 107 catches for 697 yards and 3 TDs. Pretty even performances - within 24 total yds and identical TD totals! The game has changed in 30 years with more Nickel D and less carries by RBs and more platooning at RB. Singletary is an effective runner in the right scheme - he is not the receiver Thurman was - thus the Bills signing Duke Johnson.

Bobby Douglass era for da Bears - ha ha LOL!!!

My prediction - the first time Gilmore blows a coverage and points at Poyer, Hyde or White should be priceless!

So how many games did we win with Shady and Josh in 2018? This team had OJ, Thurman, Marshawn, Fred Jackson and Shady and won nothing. It is a QB league! Bills need a 3rd down option now that Beasley is gone. Duke is a very good 3rd down back.

@GunnerBill I thought so but he failed in slot in MIN and played pretty well outside in KC last year. He did fall down on Gabe's 3rd TD ion AFC Divisional - cruel Gabe did that to fellow UCF alum!

I wonder if Mike Hughes is a candidate. Zone heavy background in MIN and started late last year for KC. Believe he was a team mate of Gabe Davis at UFC

IMHO most likely Bates competes fopr RG starting spot with Ford (if still here), this signee and a C/G mid-round draftee. Bills have spoke with a half dozen or more IOLs at Combine / Sr Bowl etc.

They do need backups. And unlikely OBD loses Bates as we have right to match any offer. It likely comes down to whether Dorsey and Kromer want Bates in new scheme more than anything else.

Same source. Per game averages. And only 5 TDs over 2 seasons. Pass for me. Good college player who didn't translate to pro game - it happens
