Chinn to Buffalo makes a lot of sense.

Chinn is an in-the-box safety/hybrid LB. He actually does not fit what Buffalo needs, which is a replacement for Micah Hyde who's a rangy FS. Maybe put in a tad more thought before starting inane topics, thanks.

They run a three safety defense. It’s an interesting model. It’s actually what snow deploys on our defense with hartsfield, woods, and Chinn. The only thing we are fuging up on side is the assignments between the three.

Good coaches use good players. 
 

im sure Sean mcdermott and Leslie Frazier could put him to good use.

No it doesn't. They lost a deep FS. We're wasting Chinn playing him as a deep FS. He needs to be playing an in the box/short zone style SS like Kam Chancellor did in Seattle. He's basically a prototypical cover 3 strong safety.

Plus, he's a talented young defender on a rookie contract. Those are the types of guys you keep to build around. The types of guys we need to be looking at moving are overpriced vets that are liabilities for us but could be contributors on a contender. Guys like CMC, Robby Anderson, etc. We need to be clearing cap and jettisoning guys who will age out before we're likely to be in a position to contend. We need to be hanging onto guys like Jeremy Chinn.

    • It's amazing how much yall can say the same things over and over and not annoy yourselves with it.
    • If you only look at measurables, Mingo and Legette might seem similar.  But when you actually look at them and watch them play, they aren't close to the same.   And this is coming from someone who is skeptical about Legette, although ultimately I believe he will work out.  I've just always disagreed with the comparisons to Mingo.   Mingo tests better than he plays/runs, whereas Legette plays/runs as well as he tests.  
    • As bad as things were with the Panthers last year, we still had 4 other games outside of the 2 we won that we came very close to winning.  Could throw the Falcons game in there too, it was tied going into the 4th. I'm not really sure what to expect this year.  I don't think we'll make the playoffs.  However, we play in a very weak division where no team has a standout QB.  On paper, our OL should be good, and could be great if Ikem improves.  That alone could help mask a lot of problems on offense.  Should allow us to run the ball better.  Even if Bryce doesn't improve, the OL should at the very least give him more time to make the easy throws underneath and let a guy like Legette work his magic after the catch. And I think this defense in a 2nd year with Evero should, at the very least, be in the top 16.  I'm expecting our run defense to be as good as it has been in years. I think this team could push for 7-8 wins.  But it could also finish with 2 wins again.  That is just how the league works.  Jets offense was miserable last year, and yet they still won 7 games.   We won't really get a good feel of it until after the preseason, and even then, who knows.
