I fell in love w/ Derwin James & Minkah Fitzpatrick for their versatility -- Simmons exhibits all that & more.
As I've said over & over again: modern NFL O's demand strong nickel...
But Simmons never has to leave the field. He has the size, speed, athleticism, pursuit, & coverage ability to handle any situation.
It will baffle me again if he falls *because* of his versatility, like Minkah & Derwin did. But..
For the #Bills, WR seems like a more pressing need. But if the opportunity was there to grab Simmons, even w/ a trade up into the teens, I'd smash it.
S is a very low-key need now but will be one soon..
How many players can do all that at once?
A dream scenario for this off-season as I currently see it for #BUF:
-trade up (1.22, 3rd, 2021 2nd or 3rd) to ~1.10 & take Simmons
-draft WR in the 2nd - possibly Bryan Edwards.
D would be top-3 in the NFL adding two freak & versatile athletes, & we get a big bodied playmaker for JA.
If JA then had a year 3 leap..😩
WR is deep enough that we could wait until R2 to address it as well.
Let me know what you think #BillsMafia !
