Bills signing Josh Norman - yes, seriously

[Boatdrinks]

Someone put up a list of available FA corners last week after Tre injury. It was slim pickin’s and Norman was on it . Gotta have a warm body ready to go in just in case. Still a few weeks to go until trade deadline . Any stopgap type guy out there right now is going to be underwhelming.

LOL that’s a name I never thought I would ever hear again in my life😂

I’ve been thinking about old Bills defensive backs recently. Guy in front of me at the Dolphins game had a Coy Wire jersey on.

This is Beane panicking!

Elam felt a lot like Leodis McKelvin. Regularly in position, but had no idea when or where the ball was coming from. McKelvin was an idiot, Elam seems much smarter. This feels like something he can get better at with more playing time. 

I would rather work through that issue than try and get 57 year old Josh Norman to drink from the fountain of youth. We'd be better off spending our time trying our hand at alchemy. Honestly. Norman has absolutely nothing to offer at this point. 

McKelvin was 10x better than Elam. He was an athletic freak and a decent CB. If it wasn’t for that pesky 2 fumble game against the Patriots…

London Fletcher is next!

Well he’ll probably make Poyer and Hyde look a little faster

Nah , this is a warm body signing that knows McDs defense. That’s about it and it’s what you do when hit with a rash of injuries at a position.

Good chance to take a look at someone you dont know well that could surprise. Most likely wont pan out, but a guy like Norman is not going to pan out.

His most memorable play as a Bill.  Getting flung out of bounds by a Derrick Henry stiff arm.

::Derrick Henry's Arm has entered the chat::

[ngbills]

I heard Leslie Frazier just called and wants to compete with Norman for the spot on the PS...

[HurlyBurly51]

This Josh Norman?!

 

 

[Coach Tuesday]

Starting to feel like a lost season already.  Damn.

[MikePJ76]

This is pretty awful.

 

Seems very odd this is the best they can do but corners are hard to come by.

 

I really hope he never has to play.

Someone had to do it:

 

 

[K D]

I think he thought OBJ was still on the Giants and he wanted his revenge. Henry's stiff arm knocked him all the way back to 2015!

[Buffalo03]

All I think about is him getting ran over by Derrick Henry with a mean stiff arm. I can't unsee it

[BillsSbSoon]

Maybe he is there to help out Elam sorta like Derek Anderson did josh. I chant imagine or hope they are getting him ready to see a lot of actual playing time

It has been a minute, but it feels like Josh Norman was toast in 2020. There is absolutely no way that he is the best option. Zero. 

forget best option. There’s no way he’s a reasonable option.
