Hargreaves has a 9 mill salary in 2020 if claimed on waivers 

 

  Comp pick at the end of season if he doesn't fit though. That alone might be worth it

True McD's only willing to improve the roster if the player fits their "Process", "DNA" and "Family man" view of players

Poor work ethic at football. What does that have to do with him not being a family man. I’m not talking about him not completing his honey do list.

No. Just no. 

 

It's not a long-term solution.  They need to draft or sign a thumper this offseason and move Edmunds outside.  But in the meantime they've run out of sacks and turnovers and the lack of a pass rush is the biggest reason.  And they're getting gashed in the run game, anyway.

Good run stopper.  Liability in pass coverage. 

 

Dont need any of those right now

Change of Scenery.  Low Risk High Reward claim.  

 

I know they wont do it though and just shows that their claim of always looking for improvement is limited as well

Preston Brown and Zach Brown.  Neither was impressive after they left Buffalo.

[Virgil]

Preston was the weaker of the two browns.  We didn’t even try to match their one year offer of 4 mil, if that tells you what we thought of him

We also let an Elite CB go for nothing so what does that tell you?

[beacon]

No thank you. Brown just stood there when Gronk mugged White. Him and 30 should have been all over that cheap shot. Plus, he wasn't any good to begin with.

Edmunds is the lynchpin of the pass defense and far from the problem in the rush defense. Edmunds is never going to move; you guys need to let it go. 

[blacklabel]

Brown can't out-work or out-play second string guys on a winless team yet people want him here. Right.

 

Hargreaves has only ever played one full season, his rookie year. Played in 9 games in 2017 and all of one game in 2018. So, he's got an injury history and he's not very good but somehow he's an instant upgrade over Levi Wallace who, like any DB, has had some struggles in the last two games, but overall has been very solid and surely better than Hargreaves considering he's still employed and Hargreaves isn't. But yeah, let's get that guy in here cause, you know, people have heard of him.

 

There isn't an eye roll gif big enough for this caca.

15 mil a year was hardly nothing

Did we pay 15M a year?  Nope we should have Tagged and Traded, that is what a GOOD SMART Front Office would have done.  We were selling out talent that year, why would you let on walk for NOTHING?

PB Blaster >>> Morax, so he's good depth.  Git 'r' dun!

[oldmanfan]

And here we go.  Any guy cut by another team must be an upgrade to a 6-3 team.  Makes a ton of sense.

Well, that’s assuming someone would give something up for him, knowing they also have to sign him.  
 

It would have taken the Pats out of the equation immediately, as I doubt we were trading him within our division.  
 

But I agree with your point. He was the first player to sign in FA, if I remember correctly.  We pry could have gotten something for him.

Look at what CBs have been traded we would have gotten Multiple Picks for Gilmore to include at least one 1st.

It is.  Brown is better than Julian Stanford and Corey Thomson so yep it would be an upgrade

I think that’s a recent thing honestly.  Trades weren’t going down like that a few years back. 
 

I doubt we would’ve gotten a first for him.

Its the Bills message board hyperbole.  His narrative is in line with "McDermott only signs Christians."

Got a 3rd and a WR for Darby (lesser player by alot)

 

He would have easily gotten a 1st.  But again just the short sightedness of McD

I wouldn’t want him starting but he’s cheap depth to the LB core, they know when and where to play him based on his skill set, and he knows the D. I wouldn’t complain if they claimed him.
