As a free agent for the first time last year, Taylor Rapp was forced to settle for a one-year, $1.77 million contract with the Buffalo Bills, a team that already had two starting safeties of a high caliber. He was leaving the L.A. Rams not for an opportunity to start necessarily, but to start over. This week, Rapp did get that opportunity to start, as the Bills released Jordan Poyer and also seem set to part ways with free agent Micah Hyde, opening the door for a new safety. Buffalo responded by giving Rapp a deal worth up to $14.
