Buffalo Rumblinks, 11/1: Bills Acquire CB Rasul Douglas
Additionally, where do the Bills stand in the latest NFL power rankings?
When the Buffalo Bills lost cornerback Tre’Davious White for the season due to an Achilles injury, it created a void at boundary cornerback.
Leading up to the NFL’s trade deadline, there was widespread speculation that Bills’ general manager Brandon Beane would take action to address the team’s cornerback needs. In the latest edition of Buffalo Rumblinks, we learn about cornerback Rasul Douglas, who the Bills acquired from the Green Bay Packers just before the 4 p.m. EDT deadline on Tuesday.
Buffalo Bills Secure Packers CB Rasul Douglas in Trade Deadline Deal
Not only did Beane make a deal for a highly skilled cornerback in Douglas, but he also found someone who excels as a zone coverage corner and seamlessly fits into head coach Sean McDermott’s defensive scheme. Douglas was performing at a high level as a top cornerback for the Packers before the trade. In this trade, the Bills sent a third-round draft pick in the 2024 NFL Draft to Green Bay and received a fifth-round pick in return. Moreover, Douglas is not on an expiring contract, and he is expected to be a significant contributor for the Bills in 2024. This trade is a win-win for Beane and Buffalo.
