But to put out that emotional pull and get the fans riled up is awesome on his part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to prioritize Edmunds over Poyer if I had to choose. The Bills have some manipulation they can do but there will be some more holes too, Dequan Jones is up, Saffold is up and there are others. Going to have to draft/develop some replacements. The BIlls have been over spending the cap for a few years and they probably will again which is fun but they are at the point where you ahve to make tough decisions on guys you want to keep 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 3 hours ago, Bleeding Bills Blue said: I know an active 3T is super important to pass rushing in our defense, but the defense thrives with edmunds taking away space in the middle and he seems to just be coming into his own. Oliver extension makes sense to lower that cap hit. I agree this will be a very difficult decision for McB. They've got 3 important players and realistically can only sign 1 or maybe 2 with some discount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously... the dude could not just wait to thank everyone AFTER we win the SB? seriously though. Wait till its done for all this... STUPID.. this video reeks of drama "look at me look at me". JP I will always respect what you have done for the team and for Buffalo BUT... this could of waited till after the fact... Come On Man. I think you missed the point that this is possibly his last home game. Even if we win the game, if KC also wins, this is his last home game still unless he gets a new deal. And he was specifically asked about if he is thinking about that. He gave an honest and heart felt answer. Of course he is thinking about this, and I don't see anything wrong with him understanding that until there is a new deal, this is probably his last home game as I think everyone expects KC to beat the Jags (although that isn't a foregone conclusion). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Ballin Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Love to have Jordan Poyer here for another 2 years. Experienced All Pro Safety ,who is on the top of his game, is difficult to replace. Yes, we can replace him, but with someone younger who needs to be coached up and that player might not work out. Jordan Poyer is a sure thing for the next 2 years unless he gets injured bad. Also, he can mentor the younger guys, which he's doing right now.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Imo the move to Drew was always to max out in FA. They need to get younger and more dynamic at safety, it’s time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there's Poyer, who is great at his role. Pay the man! That's a very valid point. 👍 Don't know how it translates to the front office, but valid nonetheless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppy Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) I would be happy if Poyer could stay but his last great payday and who offers it may rule his decision. And wether or not he'd be willing to accept a fair deal but a homer discount? Im not sure. I will wish him well wherever he goes unless it is an AFC east team. Please if he has to move on let it be to the NFC, Edited January 19, 2023 by muppy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMM Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Only way he stays is if he agrees to home town discount, which I don't think he will and that's OK. He's earned his payday. He is getting long in the tooth, injured all year. Its time for the transition especially with Hyde and Damlin up in air. Bigger question is can we get Edmunds to take something reasonable along the lines of his partner Milano. Hope he will. Then big Ed next in line. Josh I'm sure will be willing to do whatever it takes to provide cap relief but only so much you can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsgoodtime Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) If it comes between PO and Edmunds, its a no Brainer. You pay the 24 year old qb of the offense and used significant draft capital to get and then developed him as well. PO is 32 and Hyde is around the same. We are stuck with Hyde next year. Its time to start getting younger at S. Draft a S, and maybe sign a mid to low tier starter. Peoole forget, almost no one knew who Poyer was when he was picked up. Did not accomplish much before being brought to Buffalo. The same can be done through the draft or cheaper FA signing. He has been great for the Bills, except his greedy wife. Its time to move on, he is already breaking down. Edited January 19, 2023 by Gunsgoodtime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Lots of guys have taken team friendly deals to stay with the bills. I think it'd be lame if Poyer didnt do the same to some extent. Allen took a very team friendly deal, I feel like Poyer could/should do the same. I get that he deserves more, and I agree he deserves more, but he should also remember the team that made him a star. Also, why did he release this video this week? Couldn't last week have been his last game also? Edited January 19, 2023 by Steptide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Poyer is one of my favorite Bills. I hope that he returns next year. Poyer and Hyde- put them back together again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) I think if Bills win the SB, the odds increase that Poyer will take the best offer in FA and max out his earnings with a SB Championship already under his belt. If we fall short, I can see him being more motivated to stay someplace he loves and believes he can win a ring in the next 2 years to the point he could consider a home town discount. On the flip side, I also think Beane will be less inclined to pay him higher amounts if we win the SB. If we get the SB monkey off our backs by winning it, I think Beane focuses more on long term decisions and resists investing higher amounts in older players. But if Bills fall short, the SB or bust pressure will only be higher next year and I think making sure he has guys playing at a high level now (versus young guys who need to develop or lesser players) will carry a higher priority. In other words, whether or not the Bills win the SB this year I think will play a significant role in some of these decisions from both the players perspectives and Beane's perspective.

BigAl2526 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Poyer and Edmunds are both going to get big money deals. Jordan Poyer is 31. Tremaine Edmunds is 24. I like them both, but if Buffalo can only sign one of them. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
