Joey Bosa signs with Buffalo. 1 year, $12.6 million

[QCity]

Will he wear Shawne Merrriman's number?

He’s probably the highest ceiling vet we could’ve added at this point.  I don’t see Hendrickson as an option.  I should be really excited about this, as he was on my wish list, but I have visions of him being injured come playoffs.  
 

He’s a needle mover and I give Beane credit.  If he can land Adebo, he’ll have done a good job.  We’d be able to draft 2 DTs and a WR rd 1-2.

 

Adebo? The Cb that the Giants signed?

Isn't Adebo a Giant already?

Missed that one.  Sigh.  Glad we didn’t pay that much though

Absolutely!  1 game missed and 28 sacks over the past 3 seasons.

 

A no-brainer.

Signed with Atlanta 

[MrEpsYtown]

Zero risk here. Basically replacing Von. I do like that he chose to be here over playing with his brother. Perhaps he wants to win. McDermott rotation will help him. 

[JoshAllin]

ngl I wanted this deal, I think he plays better as a bill

1 yr tells you about confidence in his health.

This makes AJ expendable, especially if they draft a DE at 30 

NT or CB more the pick at 30 with way roster unfolding.

Must be confident in their new strength and conditioning staff!

They fired the previous in anticipation of this move :p. They only need 10 more staff for this one player

Yes. I like the signing. I like the player. I'm just stating his injury history. That is all. That's why I said it could be high reward as well. 

I mean, short of a full season out, the risk  is like a $5m overpay if he pays 2/3 of the year and is just ok?

[klos63]

2 foot injuries,  2 concusions and a groin tear.

 

Will those injuries lead to others,  or was it just bad luck?

Only 5 sacks, good run defender but has not stayed healthy ever in his entire career, not 1 season did he make it through yet.

17', 19', 21'

Is Bosa not primarily a left DE?  Kinda want to see Groot get the reps on that side…

No he's a RDE

Are those reps at the end against the Bengals? Like that. Many other highlights against bad competition, but whatever. 

 

 

I don't dismiss Solomon as a legitimate developmental piece on the edge. He's already in the pipeline. Don't sleep on him.

True- But where does he fit in?
 

I can't see the bills dressing 6 DEs on game day very often. (If at all)

 

I would bet he's DE6 who makes the team, but is inactive on game days unless someone gets hurt

Two first picks in draft should be d tackle. Then our d line is set to kill qbs

Kenneth Grant, Alfred Collins, Deone Walker, Omar Norman-Lott, Jordan Phillips, CJ West, give me two big guys for the 1-Tech who can eat up blockers. 

[Jerome007]

People are complaining about a one year deal for a very good pass rusher? OK then.

 

I'm pumped. With Hoeght and Bosa, that run stopping goes way up, and pass rush improves too. It should help Rousseau, Milano, Bernard, Oliver, etc.

[Warriorspikes51]

Can we trade for his brother at the deadline please?

 

PLEASE?!?

 

better yet DO IT NOW BABY  LETGOOO

Sure. Doesn't mean it's not a good upside gamble for the Bills

I'm not knocking it, just being real. This is a swing and hopefully not miss move so I can't fault them for this 1.
