I agree with you on Jordan Davis and both Zion Johnson and Kenyon Green. Those 3 top my BB for pick 25. Seems like were on the same page as Beane. I think we can get a suitable CB in rounds 2 or 3 of the draft 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuy82 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Read an article on Jerry Hughes maybe coming back on a vet minimum contract to get a ring. Would anyone oppose this ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuy82 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) Dante Fowler was released by Falcons This guy might be able to get signed on a 2/10 million salary Thoughts as a rotational piece with Rousseau and Basham ? Rousseau, Oliver, Basham, Fowler front on 3rd downs ? 🤔 Edited February 16, 2022 by BillsGuy82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t really care which side right now. Agree about CB. This staff has gotten Wallace and Jackson to play at high levels and neither were obviously high picks or picked at all. Unless the player is clear BPA and a stud athlete I don’t think we need to go CB in round 1 like the media suggest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Gardner and Stingley Jr stand out at CB but after that we got 7-8 names interchangeable. It's not deep talent wise but the top 12 CB are very nice.

Would anyone oppose this ? For vet min absolutely but I would be surprised he would settle staying for vet min. I know ring chasing could be enticing but at the same time money still trumps it all as this will likely be his last go. "IF" some how he does settle for vet min then this could be a situation in which the bills will only need to add one vet to the roster. We currently have epenesa, rousseau and basham as locks for 53 man roster. Obada, Addison, and Hughes are free agents. We held on to 6 DE this year so if the bills sign Hughes to vet min then they still need 2 more, I am all for Chandler Jones, so if that some how happens they have another spot to either bring obada or a mid to late rd draft pick in for the 6 spot.

I personally hope we go with someone a little more proven and a better fit to go behind Basham and Rousseau in the rotation. I haven't given up on Epenesa but I'm not sure he ever becomes anything more than a rotational player. Basham and Rousseau showed a lot of positive signs and if we upgrade the IDL I think both will flourish in year 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basham and Rousseau showed a lot of positive signs and if we upgrade the IDL I think both will flourish in year 2. Im not sure how Beane will be but this is where I think you go all in on the top pass rusher that hits the free agency. I will get my hopes up thinking its Chandler Jones as he is the best option out there and can be the guy we need while Basham and Rousseau take the next step. Having Jones on a 2-3 year deal to be around those 2 to get them to the next level while also being a major contributor to the dline is best case scenario. I think Rousseau is ready to take on a major role and based on the past couple of years addison and hughes ate up 50-65% of the snaps while others rotated. If you can get rousseau and jones in there for that 50%+ snaps while basham and epenesa get in along with a hughes/Obada option as the 5th rotational guy they could be in a good position. To me fowler is to inconsistent he had 1 amazing season with the Rams and 1 solid season with the jags but the other 4 seasons he was non existent, I just dont know if that is a guy who can make the impact we need to get to the next level and I would hate to have that figured out to late in to the season if he isnt any good. Jones has just been consistent and outside of his injury he is still averaging 10.7 sacks a season. Remove 2020 and hes around 12 sacks a season. 2014 we had 3 players with double digit sacks, since then Lorenzo Alexander in 2016 was the only one to have double digit sacks. We need to find someone who can bring that to the table this coming year if you want to be a contender. I also agree with trent IDL is as big of a need as landing a pass rusher like Jones. The only guy I can think of in free agency is Akeim Hicks that can be a penetrator in the middle of the line, not sure if there is anyone else that can be had in free agency that is a disrupter in the middle?

Trentwannabe Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 I hope we leave Bobby where he is and hire outside for the LBs. Someone to get more out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
