Thoughts on Samuel, Okudah, or anyone else left of substance?

Vea went with our original pick yeah?

For his wedding, he should pick a random Bils fan and give the 1 million for fun. Hopefully me.

The one thing I will say is that I do not believe they will sign two corners. If they add a Samuel on a long-term deal I don't think they extend Benford. If they extend Benford I think they add a very cheap vet and draft a guy. Meaning I don't think they will pay two corners. Have one long-term guy and one young guy making minimum and churn through that every 4 years. I could be wrong. But just thinking about cap allocation...unless Samuel comes in cheaper than I think.

Jamies Winston? Maybe he is more like plan D

They need to add a starting caliber corner so we don't repeat that same fate. We never addressed the position, talked up Dane jackson and got forced into a reach pick. Not to mention we traded up. It is what it is, obviously it was a mistake and its over. I am simply saying, if this regime really has "learned from it" then they will add a starting level corner here at some point.

man...the noodle arm with George Pickens and DK Metcalf...gonna be fun to sit back and watch the world burn Yeah, I have hated him since draft time. Imagine if we did not get Josh...he was probably going to be the pick. Beane and McDermott would be selling insurance somewhere now.

God I hate that guy

On Cooper Kupp, wasn't there a picture of him online with a Bills hat on? Like is he really a Bills fan? Maybe he would want to come help us win a title.

I feel like with the Bosa deal this shipped has sailed. But as a lot of people have mentioned, Bengals likely don't trade with us anyway.

This is what teh Hamlin and Gilliam contracts should have been. JMO. Absolutely no risk here.

Bengals gonna Bengal.

I'm sure Matt Smiley was covering this level of detail with the field goal block team...

Yeah, I agree. He can block and catch, yet they use an extra offensive lineman in his place. It seems like he is purely a special teams player.

Yeah these guys like him and Gilliam are minimum salary benefit guys. This is too much. Save 2.4 million on the Elam trade then turn around and give it to Hamlin? Micro transactions that are not necessary. IMO

Yes that’s the issue for sure. I think he’s flashed. I’d give him a shot if I can’t add Samuel, and I would add to the position as well

I mentioned in another thread, he is what a corner is like if built in a lab. Good size, speed in the 4.4s, long arms, he tackles, plays zone, plays man. He just turned 26. Overdrafted a bit and everyone expected him to Marshon lattimore or Denzel ward. There is a connection on staff as Okudah’s best year was with Atlanta where his DC was Ryan Nielsen. Outside of Samuel, he’d be my favorite add and he is more McDermott corner than Samuel is.

still hoping for Samuel…but I forgot that Jeff Okudah spent that one year in Atlanta, it was probably the best year of his career and his defensive coordinator was Ryan Nielsen. Okudah always had that upside could be interesting. Hes the corner built in lab who was overdrafted. I would also consider throwing a late pick to the Pats for Alex Austin. He’s kind of one that got away, his secondary coach is here and he is not in line to start anymore.

My guess is the Titans. Pretty much the entire defensive staff who brought him to the Jets are with the Titans now. Can play next to Cody Barton.

His college highlights are fun. In there he plays strong, free, and some nickel.

I read it somewhere. But asking price was high is what I recall… Edit: Diana Rossini in the atheltic around the deadline

Weird, I guess they move Tippman to guard?

Yeah I agree and go back to the trade deadline when they tried to get him, reportedly pretty hard, they obviously feel he can play with Shakir!

Dude I hate Myles Teller. Horrible actor with a very punchable face.

I am with you. But I do give them credit for actually moving on instead of trying to force their pick to work. Other than that, this whole saga was a massive failure of evaluation and drafting
