Fascinating that the Bills don’t think he’s lost. I don’t think he’s great but he’s been serviceable imho. I’ve seen him play poorly on a few plays but he’s not lost.

Great job selecting the misses.. so funny. TM didn’t start for 3 years…Teller was a miss..our DT’s are better than PF this and last year. I could name 10 players McClappy has hit on the past 4-5 years. And 2 things 1 The current starter beat him out and was available 2. He doesn’t play ST as Bishop does. So I’m only surprised he didn’t beat out Hamlin, otherwise it makes sense. Milano, TJ, Bernard, Benford, Shakir, Ty Johnson, R Davis, Hamlin, Morris, Ingram. All 4-7 picks or FA’s. Probably missed a few. Hmm ok it’s been reported 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s not giving Hamlin any credit. He is certainly not a great S by any stretch. But I think McClappy is playing the players who give the Bills the best chance to win-period. If it was all bad attitude I think he would already be gone. He got hurt, Hamlin knows the “process “ and he’s been serviceable.

Depends on his attitude. If he pissed he’s not playing but practicing and being a team player fine. If he is hurting the team in any way he’s gone. We have heard he’s not happy before.. but it comes down to that. He is a valuable depth player at the Bills weakest position. Like Virgil he could suddenly get playing time in any of the next 9 weeks.

He’s being moved to LB. Edwards has more value than Tre.. Bills set at CB. Elam is going nowhere.. he had key int vs Steelers.. disappointing per draft spot absolutely. But he’s depth at an important position.

Wow I didn’t notice he was the next Ronnie Lott last night .. did I miss something 🤷🏻‍♂️? I did notice our S’s play fairly well against the team with the most passing yards in the NFL. And I think they are average not great. But they are doing their job.

Just no.. Von coming back. Solomon developing into the rotation. Just not worth parting with picks at this point. Also why would Mack be traded.

Agree and he’s had like 8 targets. It’s not even the halfway point in the season. He may be needed.. so why would we doing anything but get him in the mix when he’s healthy? I chose to look at him as a weapon yet to be used and he will impact some plays in the 2nd half. The Bills have added many vet FA’s and some have really contributed. He will get a chance to provide value just when the Bills might need it.

As mentioned previously the Bills sign vet FA’s to fill in the roster of returning vets and rookies. Edwards is one of multiple FA’s brought in. Several of them are making important contributions. Edwards was hurt and simply has not done enough to win the job. The S’s in the Bills are average so while an opportunity to upgrade seems viable, he hasn’t done enough to warrant it. We are not even halfway through the season. It’s certainly possibility that he and Samuel will be needed. MVS was expendable when the Cooper trade happened. Hollins brings ST value and is a team guy. I’m pleased at the vet pickups in the off season. DL depth has been very valuable. But not all FA’s work out but on the whole the Bills do a pretty decent job.

And the Bills had 6-7 picks ? Several players we didn’t pick look darn good. Some others don’t. I’m not gonna beat up BB for trades that other teams don’t accept nor not drafting 20 good players 🤷🏻‍♂️but that’s me.

He’s a decent hitter but not great in coverage. PFF had him in bottom 1/3 as the game started. Not sure I necessarily assume that as gospel but he’s ok. Not regretting Bills didn’t draft him. With respect to Thomas and trading up.. it’s not Madden. Do we know that BB didn’t try that? Jax earned that draft spot with poor play. I’m pleased with a very productive draft for this season. Even with Bishop yet to be determined.

Cooper is the better younger player. But they both will help each team. The Bills desperately needed a go to X. The Chiefs have been making do with two TE’s and a mix at WR. Bills did better but big wins for both. Each team has to keep up with that Ravens offense that is the most consistent with the run and pass. KC is winning with great D and inconsistent but clutch QB play and a great HC. Texans showing how much they miss WR1 and it’s not drama Diggs 😆

I think where people get caught up is crossing the plane. If in control and diving and it crosses then is lost, that’s ok. But the rule is control , two feet even if over the plane on a reception. I don’t like the rule but it’s how they call it.

Worst part is the KO was a fair catch, so ball at the 25. The runner was stopped short of the 35 yard line as the broadcasters agreed. How is it even a measurement??? In what world is a spot short of the 35 viewed as a first down?? What and why are they measuring??? The MAC owes UB an apology that will mean nothing!!!

Over officiating to a new penalty that was meant to not intentionally wipe out the OL or blocker. I don’t know how a DB is supposed to play… anything high is called and low to blow up the OL pull is called. So you’re essentially supposed to get run over .. that’s ok and meets player safety. You know like games on Thursdays and in London on concrete so the soccer teams don’t get pissed. Player safety is priority 😂

Great research! Fascinating that had that been a D player abusing the WR it gets called. I’ve seen this in other non Bills games as well. With all the PIs they call this is an egregious non call. But using two pass rushers to guard the sidelines is an absolute disgrace by McD.

Based on what ? He was a backup that filled in with those teams. Most people assumed Hamlin would not start. He is, and one thing about McD is he a solid DB coach. I think he knows more than I do. Hamlin is not great but apparently Edwards is not as good per the Bills coach’s. Might change later in the year 🤷🏻‍♂️

The humanity! The Bills pick up a vet in the off season who is hurt in camp and doesn’t start. The team is made of multiple players who compete. Some start and some don’t. I also assumed he would potentially be a starter. But I’m guessing they know more than I do🤷🏻‍♂️.. so I hope at some point if he is needed he does a great job. Different defensives and a different year. Good for him.

Some good points here. I would lay a fair amount of blame on rushing 2 guys as AR snickered while R and E are guarding the absolute unimportant sidelines. Cine has to this point not been able to start as a S in the NFL. Super smart of the Bills to consider him as a LB in the scheme they play. We are able to assess the D and say the Hail Mary was dreadful otherwise they made plays when they had to. Certainly not a great performance and some concerns but sealed the W.

What is the niche ? To make plays? It is a shock the Bills drafted a player at LB who fits the style they like to play 1-2 rounds early? He was really good at Baylor. So the draft experts who told us Josh Rosen was the better qb? Think he should have gone in the 5th? Who cares! The point is he’s a really good player for the Bills at the 3rd round like MM was in the 5th.

And he also multiple high level starters since he began drafting. I can name them but it would include multiple players. By any measure BB is a top 5-10 GM in the NFL. He is going to miss on some. To suggest Bishop 6 games in off a pre season injury is a bust is comical.

Might be the bomb where he was out of position. He will eventually get in but he’s not processing the nfl fast as of yet. Currently Hamlin gives us the best chance to win. Bills win the Texans game if that doesn’t happen. Hamlin is a low-average nfl starter but he’s not losing games.

Why ?

Share who they are at 2.8 M ? I contest it was solid signing late in FA. Even as depth which as I said may very well pay off. He was injured and could not practice while guys in his spot were healthy and in the system.
