They did this so they can afford Suh.  They now have 0 cap space for anything but their rookies, not that they'll have to pay their late round rookies a lot anyways.

2 Career INTs and 21 passes defended in 5 years. No thanks. We're likely drafting another CB early. 

 

He only played meaningful snaps on defense in 2 seasons.

 

Snap counts by season:

 

2013 - 479

2014 - 130

2015 - 69

2016 - 59

2017 - 552

 

In those 2 seasons (2013 and 2017), he had 13 starts, and totaled 17 passes defensed and 2 INTs.

 

By contrast, in 16 starts last season, Tre White had 18 passes defensed and 4 INTs.

 

Gotta look at more than just the stat sheet.

 

The downside is that he's recovering from an Achilles injury and may not be available until into the regular season

Those Achilles injuries can be killers for DBs.  He may never recover his pre-injury speed and cutting ability.  The Bills can do their due diligence, but the midical vetting needs to be especially thorough.
