Really affordable, and while he’s not an exact Milano replacement he would fit that role of the guy who always seems to be in the right place to make a big play. 2 1 Quote

They actually did well to retool the position without a top 5 pick, which is exceedingly difficult these days. It’s not like they are the Broncos or Raiders here. 1 Quote
3rdand12 Posted August 15 Posted August 15 less than I expected honestly. Would have taken him over that FA guy we got is now injured. Even before he was injured lol 1 1 Quote

We could get creative, sure.. but not sure it makes sense to do that for a Safety. 1 Quote

But I was underwhelmed by Taylor Rapp's play last season, and terrified of the thought of him being a starter this season. Damar Hamlin I actually thought was pretty average his first season starting, and getting better when the incident occured, so I was kinda ok with him starting as our box safety...but not him and Rapp together. But if this was the price for Simmons, then IDK what the Bills were thinking here Just now, SCBills said: Everybody would. Simmons is a Top 3 Safety.

We have 10M in in unused cap space, unless I'm missing something 1 Quote
Augie Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Cousins, Judon, Simmons, the offensive weapons……could the Falcons be a little interesting? Quote

We have 6.49 https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/cap/_/year/2024 And when you factor in the 3m or slightly more for the Practice Squad and at least a couple million for in season spending, we have very little to practically nothing on hand rn.

Cant ignore we are spending almost $6M on Rapp and Edwards. I take Simmons at $8M and some lower $ guys than the combo. 4 Quote

Even before he was injured lol It is no doubt less than he expected as well. Why does everyone think he has been out there this long? The only explanation is that his demands exceeded his worth. What was the price in March, April when the Bills and other teams were constructing their rosters? His demands on term? At this point the Bills do not have near the cap room to have signed that contract. Edited August 15 by FLFan Deleted misinformation 1 Quote
