Rapp remains the veteran anchor opposite Bishop, providing stability as Buffalo retools the back end and Chicago’s? No, Buffalo’s defense faces a pass-heavy slate that will test both safeties.

Rapp struggled in coverage and angles in Week 1, spotlighting safety play concerns. If Week 2 exposes continued back-end vulnerability, Buffalo could seek outside help or shuffle roles to shore up the secondary. Fantasy implications hinge on back-end stability and potential rotational safety usage.

Rapp’s presence, along with the other safeties, is cited as part of the Bills’ defensive backfield discussion; the piece notes ongoing concerns in Buffalo’s secondary.

Rapp provides starting-level depth for Buffalo but his role is not guaranteed to be the same as prior seasons; Peppers could alter the dynamic of the back end, with Rapp possibly rotating into more defined sub-packages or staying as a steady presence depending on Peppers’ addition.

Rapp is a proven starter but not among the elite safeties. In a Peppers scenario, his floor remains solid, but his ceiling could be limited by Peppers’ added playmaking and by the team shifting Hamlin to a reserve role if Peppers lands. Rapp offers a safe fantasy floor with slightly reduced upside if Peppers steps in.
