Not sure exactly why they are keeping him if they don't want to play him but apparently they like something enough about him to not give up on a 1st round pick. And I don't think it's hubris. He's been good in game other than 1 or 2 games. They just don't trust him in the system for some reason. There is zero value in trading a 1st rounder who has flopped during his rookie deal. Might as well just keep benching him until he learns how to play. 1 Quote

He's just doing something that the coaching staff doesn't like at this point and he needs to fix it. 1 Quote

He’s likely the inactive CB4 from here on out and then we’ll see if Year 3 Kaiir Elam can become anything. Would rather take a shot on something finally clicking for an elite athlete at CB than give him away. Rather they just move him. McD got no faith in him so we are only holding on to him because of where he was drafted. Take what you can get and move on. Quote

They got enough 6th round picks in my view… You may as well hope he comes good… he definitely has the athletic attributes Edited October 31, 2023 by Aussie Joe 1 Quote
BeastMaster Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 No point in giving up on a physically gifted kid on a manageable contract unless you get a worthwhile offer for him He will get at least another off season and camp to show the Bills that he can be a player 1 Quote
