Buffalo Boy Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Loftin and Paup where the two that immediately hit my brain. Can’t argue with Hyde being high up in the list though. We’ve been waiting to see a D and O work together at a high level for forever. Feels like we are getting our wish. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cage Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 (edited) Lovin' Hyde, lovin' Poyer, but....... Bryce Paup was DPOY the first year he came to the Bills. He's in some legendary company. Edited October 13, 2021 by cage 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyde ----------------------------- D. Flutie M. Williams M. Morse C. Beasley T. Owens T. Washington C. Clay L. Centers E. Sanders Great list. I put a line in where I'd separate the candidates for "Best Ever" from a group that is just "very good". Sanders and Beasely could still work their way up, but they need to either string a couple of great seasons together, or make some amazing plays that directly contribute to a Super Bowl victory season.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 It has to be Bryce Paup. That was such a splash signing and then he went on to get 17 sacks and win DPOY. BTW, Paup and Spencer Brown are both alumni of Northern Iowa! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Hyde is definitely up there and seems to be playing the best football of his career right now, PFF and other key metric based sites have him graded out as the #1 safety in the NFL and he showed as much making a huge game changing play against the Chiefs in the 3rd quarter when the offense stalled after the long weather delay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 1. Ted Washington.......he was the best defensive player in the NFL in 1997 IMO and he was the foundation of their great overall defense which became the identity of the team.....whether fans realized it at the time or not. Cutting him erased 15 years of organizational identity building and set the drought in motion. From 1994-2004 he was the most dominant run defender in the NFL. 2. Bryce Paup..........gotta' give it to Paup because of his NFLDPOY year...........one of the greatest seasons in Bills history. 3. Jordan Poyer.........he's been the better of two tremendous safeties........and the cheaper signing. 4. Micah Hyde..........the last Whaley gem(Babich gets Poyer credit)........sustained, consistent excellence gives him the nod over the next gem. 5 Lorenzo Alexander...........another Whaley gem........cheap signing and contended for NFLDPOY and great culture guy.(Zach Brown was the other cheap signing that offseason and he lead the NFL in tackles). 6. James Lofton..........cheap acquisition and outstanding........unfortunately he was only that guy for about 2 and a half seasons before trailing off rapidly. 7.(tie) Doug Flutie and Tyrod Taylor...........a lot of mileage and good offensive production from two super cheap signings. Two different levels of fan appreciation but both played their part in QB'ing teams to the playoffs. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
