What exact starting safety was available and what price were you willing to pay?

I am sure The Beanemaster weighed all the options. They all have their price. I will just have to trust that it was too high and hope that Poyer can get healthy

I don’t think Marlowe is coming in here to be a starting safety. Like Hines, Marlowe is very good on STs. You know who plays a lot of STs for the Bills….Jaquan Johnson. This will allow Johnson the opportunity to focus on safety while Marlowe provides depth and take his STs  spot 

This could be a good point.  I wondered how this would impact Johnson, but this angle I had not considered.

When you put it that way, it sounds strange - but that's a strange way to put it.

Marlowe was waived 2x in 2018.  In 2019-2020 he was on the roster. 

He signed with the Lions, then the Falcons, in FA.

 

So we let him walk in FA 2 years ago, then traded a 7th to get him back.

 

Marlowe was waived to allow Bills to keep player on roster so he could be signed for IR.

This has happened a couple of time the last few years.

Will they cut him when Poyer comes back?

 

Feels like they're throwing away draft picks.

Bills go from having the best safety tandem in the league to one of the worst in half a season. 😩

 

Fortunately the Bills do not worry about your touchy-feely impressions.

Maybe you need to act it up and cry as well?

Dean Marlowe played very well he needed to start for Poyer or Hyde one year but neither will be playing with him this time.

I expect Dean Marlowe will be starting as safety until Poyer is able to play.  

Poyer was not put on IR, even short term, and Bills likely want Poyer for playoffs.

 

Shame for Poyer since he was having a very good season.
