HappyDays Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Not really a fan of this. Lewis and Rapp are not guys you sign on day zero of FA. If they sign elsewhere so be it, we can find cheaper options on day 3 of the draft or in late stage FA. McDermott is a little too obsessed with continuity at depth positions IMO. 4 11 13 4 Quote
Low Positive Posted March 11 Posted March 11 I know people are going to complain, but that is a good move at that price. You need backups too. 5 6 1 Quote

BuffaloBillyG Posted March 11 Posted March 11 So, we can sign any FA out there and we're spending the early hours of FA on extensions and bringing back our own guys.  Tells me we are NOT looking to be aggressive in the least. To the draft .. 1 5 1 1 Quote

McDermott is a little too obsessed with continuity at depth positions IMO.  Cam Lewis provides much more value than a day 3 draft pick or late stage FA.  He is potentially our starting safety but also backs up all secondary spots. 2 million a year is worth that IMO. 3 4 1 2 Quote
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted March 11 Posted March 11 I'd hate it more of the Bills secondary depth wasn't a complete nightmare at the moment. Quote

But you need bodies for camp, and some vet competition for rookies to get a good read on exactly where they stand.  Just because we brought him back doesnt mean he stays, or that we are done addressing the position. 2 2 Quote
Process Posted March 11 Author Posted March 11 This is fine. We need DB depth. Unlike Neal he can actually play, and costs less.  We now have a starting safety and a backup. Still needs another one of each. 1 Quote

I disagree about Rapp. Rapp is going to be a starter and will fit into this defense well. 1 4 Quote

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 11 Posted March 11 He had a pretty good season. Good depth for McDermott. Quote
