McD not ruling out bringing in Hyde: “You know he we feel about Micah”

While it would be interesting to see what Hyde has left (watching a 250 lb 30 year old Henry outsprint our young safeties last night was painful), McD shouldn't put him in the position of risking his neck (literally) to play a few more games....

It's not McD’s call on his injury, its up to Docs and the player. If he's cleared medically then he's good to go as far as the coach is concerned

Hyde at 20% is better than Rapp or Hamlin at 100%

Couldn’t afford Simmons because we spent $$$ on Samuel & MVS

What a travesty. Paying Samuel more than what we could've signed Simmons for. I believe we're paying Samuel 8 per, and Simmons is getting 7. If I'm not mistaken.

I get the feeling a conversation has already taken place and come later in the season if we need him for a playoff drive, he'll sign.

I’ll say it again - his house in OP still has not been listed for sale.  The door has not been closed.

If we sign Hyde I bet Hamlin gets traded to Pittsburgh 

How many picks would we have to include for Pittsburgh to accept?

McD wouldn’t be putting him in position.  He’s a grown man and would be making this decision on his own. McD has nothing to do with it

Hyde isn't on the roster.  He would have to be called...by someone like McD or Beane, to see if he wanted to come back.

 

That would be McD or Beane "putting him in that position", as opposed to, say, not calling him up at all.

I feel like they are saying all the right things about the situation but it’s not a move they are going to make. Just a hunch 

[GETTOTHE50]

Dude Micah, you’re the man and we love you, but no. You did a helluva job when you were here and you never disappointed us. Go retire with AJ 

[MikePJ76]

so there is a worry its a long term issue with Rapp?

I won't claim to know who makes the call, but I would expect it comes from Beane - or Micah's agent. 

 

No clue who Alex Brasky is but I think it's odd that he paraphrases that McD "likes what they have" and then quotes "You know how we feel about Micah.” Makes me question whether the quote and paraphrase came from the same 'interview' and whether I should care what he posted anymore than the speculative posts we get on 2BD.

When rapp is back I wanna see rapp and bishop playing 💯 

This, I also want Ingram in there for Lewis until Taron is back. Ingram has got more football smarts it seems

Bishop and Hyde could be pretty sweet! A half speed Hyde is twice as good as a full speed Hamlin!!! 

 

I sometimes wonder if Damar is getting a bit of preferential treatment, I wonder if he hadn't had the incident that happened to him if he would still be with the team ? I know he knows this D better than the new recruits but is his ability where it needs to be or is he truly a back up elevated because of what happened ?

 

I'm very happy that he is back playing football and his health looks to be great, but i can't help but wonder about the hole situation sometimes . Or am i missing his developmental potential at his position ?

Two clichés apply here:

 

1.  Timing is everything

2.  Hindsight is 20-20

 

At the time the Bills signed Samuel, WR help was a huge need.  Given what guys like Gabe Davis make, Samuel's contract looks like a bargain.  He's hasn't been very productive so far, but there's a lot of season left.  I don't know if the turf toe is the issue, or if it's just the plays the Bills are calling.  I was expecting to see more carries, jet sweeps and other creative plays with Samuel.

 

Also, Simmons almost certainly ended up settling for a relatively cheap 1 year deal after holding out for a lot more and not getting the offers he wanted.  He wasn't going to take a 1-year, $7M deal at the time the Bills signed Samuel.  I don't know if he'd have taken a 3-year $21M deal at that time.  I'm guessing not.  Would I love to have Simmons on the roster?  Of course, but the timing did not work out.

Edwards...Bishop...Cine...please...because this is not the same Micah who we know and love and will be 34 in two months...no training camp or practices as well...and most importantly his neck-cervical injury is significant that there is no way we want him to stick his upper body into D Henry and other runners going full-speed into our secondary...safety first...

Pun intended?

Yeah, at this point I don’t understand signing Samuel for so much.  He doesn’t even start because the coaching staff finally realized Shakir is best in the slot and he’s been like just a gadget player so far, and not that effective. Wasn’t he supposed to have 4.3 speed?  If so, it isn’t being utilized properly.  He’s not that elusive on those WR screens.

I think this is more than fair and accurate, but will say that the safety market and how it was trending, was easy to read.

[BuffaloMatt]

What happened to edwards?

[RyanC883]

if the Steelers go on a losing streak, wonder if Fitzpatrick is available?  A lot of "ifs" there.  

 

I'm thinking McD does not say this unless Hyde has some interest in a return.  Hyde wants to wait until later in the season, however.

I have no clue wtf is going on with Samuel.  I thought he would have a down the field deep threat role.  Shakir would do the typical slot thing that he is doing very well, Coleman deep balls, TEs in the middle and Kincaid can stretch the seam.  it just looks like chaos now, however.
