Heavy Kevi Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 This is great news. A very under the radar pickup that could really be an impact player if he is anywhere near where he used to be. I hope he can stay healthy and be our CB#2. We were significantly worse when Gaines was out last year, so hopefully Davis "fits the bill".
MrEpsYtown Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 Now if they could remove him from IR in Madden, I can actually use him. 1 2
YoloinOhio Posted April 6, 2018 Author Posted April 6, 2018 Davis was considered a shut down #1 CB before he got hurt. He is much more accomplished and talented than EJ Gaines, who played well in buffalo’s scheme. A healthy Vontae across from Tre will be very strong. Especially if the Bills can improve the pass rush.
Doc Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 If healthy, I like the combo of White and Davis. I also have a feeling they found a Poyer-like addition in Gaines in the slot.

Agreed. The guy can play. He is definitely better than Gaines to this point. He also allows us to do some more things, maybe some more man and press and things of that nature. I really like the look of our secondary on paper, but injuries be damned!

They will need to draft one relatively early. Shareece Wright would still win the backup role with the current group....

I think it could be with one of their later picks, maybe a small school gem.

It will probably depend on how many picks we have to give up. I agree we need to take one but LB, OT and WR have to be addressed first.

BillsFanMike Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 Did we resign Leonard Johnson? I thought he did pretty good last year in the nickel.

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 ...good news......he could be the next value pick up ala Poyer and Hyde...........with SPECIAL thanks to FORMER GM Ted Thompson for letting Micah walk......
