Rhodes and Poyer need to be the starters moving forward 

 

When has Rhodes played safety? 

 

Damar Hamlin has been playing well.  I think Poyer and Hamlin work better.

[without a drought]

I could see him replacing Kyler McMichael on the practice squad.

He's a downhill thumper who has been a major liability in coverage...

Teams are running all over against. Our passing D does not rely on one guy. 

[ALLEN1QB]

Just curious what is the process for picking somebody like him up? Do the worst teams have ever shot at him?

Maybe the Raiders have all but gave up on this season.

If so, release Josh Jacobs😎

Actually, yes. The worse teams actually have a better shot at him. A team can put in a claim for a player on waivers. Preference goes from worst team to best team (think draft order). So if the Bills put in a claim for him, but, for example, the Panthers also put in a claim, the Panthers would get him because they are higher in the waiver order. However, if a player is claimed on waivers, the claiming team is responsible for his existing contract. If he clears waivers (meaning no team claims him), then he becomes a free agent and any team can sign him for whatever they agree to. Hope that makes sense!

This.  He's not a coverage safety.  He's essentially a bad Jamal Adams.

Pretending to know anything about Abram. Cute.

The most shocking thing is that the Rams actually used a draft pick

[RyanC883]

can't be worse than Johnson?

What do the Bills have to lose? When a first round pick doesn't pan out, I generally think it's because he needs a change in scenery and coaching. 

 

Poyer was not well thought of prior to coming here.  Hyde was a highly regarded backup.  

 

No risk and potentially huge reward with him.

With their injuries, I don’t see how you can’t seriously consider this

So Donte Whitner?

[Nuncha]

Why not pick him up?  Possibly a bad fit with the Raiders.

[dpberr]

He's a linebacker.  If the Bills picked him up, that's where I'd play him.  He's good at run defense, and he may improve in coverage with less territory and responsibility.

Now isn’t the time to take chances on struggling players on bad teams. Maybe the old Bills would. I don’t need this guy getting some bone-headed late hit penalty in a crucial game.

If you can't hack it with the Raiders--you can't hack it anywhere.
