Josh Norman cut

    JOSH NORMANDB, UNSIGNED FREE AGENT
    7593.jpg

    ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques suggests the Bills as a landing spot for free agent Josh Norman.

    This is dot-connecting, as Norman played for Sean McDermott during their time in Carolina. The Bills are in the market for a No. 2 corner with Levi Wallace and Kevin Johnson both free agents, so Norman to Buffalo makes some sense. After a disastrous 2019, Norman should settle for a prove-it deal this offseason.

Not commenting on Norman specifically but they are going to have to bring in some veterans in some capacity. Like how Gettleman found some great leadership at the ends of their careers. Guys like Peanut and Harper and Cotchery. Good guys to play a roll and help with the youth.

Josh may have to do a Charles Woodson to extend his career.  As we now know (many of us knew back then) Josh is a zone corner and struggled with man coverage.  I agree with most here saying he's done as a starting corner, but I think unless he does make a transition to a safety, he's washed up altogether.

Josh rode one spectacular season and crazy eyes to millions of dollars. Hopefully he was wiser with his bucks than with his work.

 

Was still one of the best corners in that one season that i've seen in a Panthers uniform. I'd like to see what could've been had he stayed in Carolina instead of chasing money; not that I fault him for that. He's likely around $35 million richer (taxes, fees, etc.) and even without winning, that can buy you a lot of opportunity to continue winning off the field.

That game against Tampa he was in a zone that I have rarely seen from a panther defender.

The most realistic chance of Josh Norman returning here was probably destroyed when Ron Rivera was fired.

That said, Rivera was also smart enough to know that he wasn't worth what he was getting paid in Washington.

As far as now, I suppose it's possible but I'd be seriously shocked if he wound up here.

Yeah, it was a great season. And Josh kept getting high off his own supply. He literally lost his freaking mind that season.

Since Josh has a nice smile & is seemingly well spoken, would not be surprised to see him on the "sport's talk" TV rounds. Guest shots on different shows/networks each week depending on who's playing that week. Possible to end up with a side-kick job on some network somewhere.
