I don’t like this at all. I thought Edwards and Bishop should have been the safeties with Rapp as the 3rd guy. Rapp has been fine though. Safety is a weakness and they have a guy that has been a good NFL player that they never gave a chance to. This is Poona Ford 2.0. Edwards should have gotten a chance.

Bills ow have multiple open roster spots I would expect some moves today:

Thatopens 2 plus louge seems like a very easy player to cut and put on practice squad

Rapp was always going to be a starter. He was here last year so knew the defense and they gave him a 3 year deal. I think the thought edwards would be the other guy with Hamlin and bishop backing up this year with bishop taking over next year but injuries in the offseason derailed that plan

Sorry, to be clear that’s what I would have done not what I thought the Bills would do. Rapp was going to start when they brought him back. I would have used him as the 3rd safety again this year.

Why would you say you are going to release a guy but also try to trade him? You are just telling teams wait.

Free agents can go anywhere, highest dollar. Tells teams that might have some interest that they might not get him.

Why would you release him and create a hole you have to fill? I thought he made some nice plays in preseason. Bishop showed he wasn’t ready yet when he had a chance, but I like having Edwards around for the depth. As soon as he’s gone we will have an injury and need him.

He asked to be released.

So what? He’s under contract.

I’m feeling like we’re going to hear later today about how Cam Lewis can play safety if injuries happen.

A minor injury in training camp shouldn't derail a guys entire season. Its hard to believe he's not better than Hamlin, but Sean is stubborn.

Assuming Ankou will get added to the roster from the PS.

He must be absolutely terrible in practice to never see the field once this season. Hope releasing him means they're working on a trade to fill his roster spot 

They already have a spot open with Smoot going to IR

He is a malcontent depth player. Move on. There are a hundred guys who can fill that role.
