Nitro Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Rapp is a great signing. One year to acclimated to the Bills scheme. Can be the replacement to Hyde or Poyer if they retire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Says Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 46 minutes ago, Logic said: I'm not understanding why a 2nd round pick in his 5th year, just entering his prime, would sign with a team that's already set at its two starting safety positions. It must mean he either didn't have better options elsewhere on the market, OR...perhaps this is sort of a one year "let's see if you're the future at this position" type signing. See how he does as the third safety on the field and how he picks up the system, and then maybe he replaces Hyde next season. Huh. I'm happy to sign safety depth, but a little bit perplexed. Edit: Or maybe he just stinks. That's definitely a possibility. Because the 2 safeties are in their 30s, coming off injuries with contracts expiring soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoBills Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 5 minutes ago, BuffaloRebound said: I highly doubt he’s coming here to strictly be a backup. McDermott must have a plan to get him on the field or I don’t think he’d be coming to Bills. There is some mounting evidence, starting with McDermott taking over the D, that something new might be in store for the D. The nearly 100% Nickel D seems to be figured out by teams so maybe it's going to have a multiple rotation or something else. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOboy Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) Really starting to think this allows us to use him as the 2nd LB/3rd safety on passing downs and employ a more traditional 2 down thumper at MLB.

Chandler#81 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Huge Get! Excellent, starting Safety caught in an abundance of FA Safety’s is why we landed him. Should this season be the last for Hyde or Poyer (or BOTH) we will have the heir apparent right here! Doesn’t turn 26 til December! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitro Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 2 minutes ago, Process said: Good signing for us. I have zero clue why he would want to come here on a one year deal with zero chance of being a starter unless there is an injury. Odd move for him. If he has a good agent, he probably was told that one spot will be open next year and can vie for a starting spot and a long tern contract. The market had dried up for the safety position. Banking on the future with a Super Bowl contender is smart, not odd. We shall see! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that make Bernard (whose play time would be limited) more of a chance as Milano's part-time partner? LOL, I'm still looking for his fit too, if there will be any. That would probably mean Milano gets the green dot. He did just sign an extension, so he would be the steady guy in all of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you want big bodies out there vs 3 WRs and a pass catching TE? Hell I even think Dorsey would run against a Milano Dime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he seriously bulks up and changes his skillset. Bernard is more similar to Milano, an undersized coverage LB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Great and cheap depth signing, also even if Poyer and Hyde make it through the season healthy it still seems like Rapp can be a big Nicole and flex around the defense a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
