Absolutely nothing exciting to see here. This guy hasn't been a factor anywhere in years. Just because he wore a Bills helmet at some point shouldn't warrant ANY excitement. The Bills are a consensus SB contender this year. Possibly signing Lawson does not move the Bills competitive needle one bit.

He's an excellent edge defender, it'd be a solid signing if at a reasonable rate. He'd definitely earn a bunch of snaps on this current roster.

Rousseau held the edge pretty good last year for a rookie. Shaq likely be his primary backup.

We already heard this back in january and there was no deal. I think Shaq wants back to the Bills bad so he keeps putting this out. If you can get him as a much cheaper Addison or Obada replacement why not. I just dont want this to be THE move on the DL.

I mean, if he wants to come for peanuts and be our replacement to Efe Obada - okay. But we need something strong opposite Rousseau. Signing Lawson, Re-signing Hughes or Addison (at this stage in their careers), Epenesa, or Basham is not the answer. But I'm okay with Lawson being part of the 3 man rotation with Epenesa and Basham outside of the Starting 2 though.

Groot is clearly the future, this would be a solid rotation.  We've got guys that can move to the back of the rotation, or maybe not get resigned at all.

If nothing else, he was a very disciplined DE who set the edge well -- and could be a nice mentor in those regards to our young DEs who struggled in that capacity last year.

 

Would still like to acquire a genuine pass rusher though.


They thought they were getting that with Addison, who had at least 9 sacks in 4 straight years with Carolina.  He’s had 5 and 7 sacks in his rotational role with the Bills.

Meh...Shaq is JAG...swipe left...

Would rather have Hughes back, at that rate...

 

Imagine Jerry wondering if he would “bother” playing for “only” $3 million a year. Don’t get me wrong, I do NOT begrudge any of them the money, it’s just such a different world and mindset. Good for them, especially the ones that are truly good people.

Hughes was a great speed rusher about 5 years ago.  At best Hughes might get a QB to take a step forward as he breezes behind them.  Then there's his wild inside rushes where he usually gets rolled on and the QB escapes to his side and next thing you know Matt Ryan is doing his Lamar Jackson impression.

If Lawson signs, it will point to a shake up in the DE room. I have theorized that Hughes, Obada and Epenesa won't be on the team next season 

 

I don’t think they give up on Epenesa this soon. Time will tell.
