 I'd go with protection over weapons. Great QBs make average weapons look better

Totally agree. Case in point? McKenzie doesn’t start on most teams; Cole/Brown out of NFL! but Josh (Diggs) make them look waaay better in situations. Josh with time can make many look good—course they gotta catch the ball with hands

the Bills deserved better than this guy delivered.  An absolute All Pro liability today.  He was beaten like a drum.

 

Poyer has been Robin to Hyde's Batman all along.  Let another team spend for this  last-on-the-pile, where's-my-help brand of Defensive talent

I know, it was aggravating to watch. Whether it's players or scheme I'd like to see Josh under less duress.

I think the Bills need to decide on what scheme they want to run offense next year before making decisions on players. If they want to continue the “run more and throw deep” approach, then they definitely need more deep speed, a better OL overall and probably another RB. If they want to get back to the short passing game then I think they need another slot guy, a TE and a new OG.

Not so sure he is washed.  He looks old and slow because he is banged up bad.  Bills will not and should not resign him though.  

 

He's banged up and bad, because he is old and slow.  A body doesn't stay strong forever, especially the way Poyer plays.

 

This team needs to get more dynamic and younger.

Poyer and Hyde have been the rock in the backfield for so long it’s really too bad they couldn’t  accomplish the ultimate goal together. 
 

Kind of wierd that Poyer may have played his last season here without Hyde and next year Hyde is back possibly without Poyer.

 

Id love to have him back at the right price but can’t break the bank given his age. 

He wanted. Raise last off season and he and the Bills didn't get it done. His age, and his body breaking down this year showed the Bills were right. He turns 32 in April. Football careers rarely go up from there. Loved watching  him play and would like him to stay but Rachel will convince him he deserves a big raise that the Bills won't be giving.

Poyer deserves to get PAID. He gave his all for us but we arent in a position in pay top dollar to him and we are no longer a favorite to win a Super Bowl. Best of luck where ever he ends up

 

Well, DraftKings disagrees with the bolded:  https://dknation.draftkings.com/2023/1/24/23568249/super-bowl-odds-2024-favorites-long-shots-aaron-rodgers-tom-brady-retirement-impact

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t she cheat on him with Antonio Brown?

I honestly have no idea and barely even know who she is. Some internet model from a decade ago? I just feel like she's regularly made comments about wanting him out of Buffalo.

Man that dude was awesome! But he really played bad in these 2 playoff games. I suspect an injury as otherwise he's been so good.


He was playing on a torn meniscus in his knee.  Also played through an elbow injury.  

 

He was a warrior all season, but he wore down at the end.

 

I wish him the best, I don’t think we’ll be able to keep him.

I swear she made some comment before the playoff game that sounded almost relieved that he'd be an FA. Like he just wrapped up hard time in Buffalo. She's annoying.


I think Bush and their kid spend the year in FL and come up on weekends. All the things I could dislike about Rachel Bush, I think it’s logical to want your husband home all year.

Poyer was playing thru injury. He put it all on the line for us. Wish we would pay him to keep him here 

 

Unfortunately part of the business of running a football team under the salary cap is that you have to pick and choose who gets paid.

If we can keep one of Poyer, Oliver, or Edmunds, I read between the lines of what McDermott and what Beane said and it’s going to be Edmunds.

”He had his best year” -McDermott

“Draft, Develop, Resign” - Beane

I’ve seen comments about her bitching about the snow storms

 

?

She was born in the Adirondacks

She skiis

 

That said she and Poyer live in Miami off season and own a big house on a canal.  So it would make total sense that they’d want to put feelers out about a deal with Miami.

 They're not expecting all the All-Pro talent on defense to be hurt again like this year? Milano, who was the only player who has received All-Pro honors and still standing at the end. The other 4 wete ether out injured or playing injured. Poyer is almost for sure gone, but we hopefully should get the other 3 back and fully healthy. Add Milano and that's 4 former All-Pros on defense again next year.

Probably right. Edmunds is pretty young too. He had a better year than Oliver. Age working against Poyer returning, but he was a great player for us.

The dude put his mind on the Cinci game being last and his communication last game? STUNK. And I would love to use harsher words on these forums but I cant...

 

BEFORE LAST GAME.... Thanks for all you did! but for now? dont let the door hit you on the way out.

 

I feel strongly about the hate I had for that Video he made and it showed his mind was not with Buffalo.

Yeah I don’t see them paying top dollar for a 32 year old SS with injury issues. That would be asinine to make him a rotational player 

 

If you don't even think it's realistic, then why would you start a pointless rumor thread suggesting that it might happen based on some Twitter nonsense? :doh:

I didn’t mean to put don’t. That’s a typo I actually do see the dolphins signing him. They’re known for overpaying for washed up players

So if we don't keep Poyer, Edmunds can just slide into the same position he's played for 5 years...strong safety.

He is playing on a torn meniscus. By rights he should have been on IR weeks ago. Has been an awesome Bill. Sad that his final game was probably his worst in the uniform. 

 

But I wish the best for him and his family too.

Oliver is here anyway next year. But I wouldn't be surprised if he got the Edmunds treatment of playing on the option. I think Ed was outstanding when healthy this year but he was nicked up a lot. They might wanna take another year to make a call on him for the long term. 

 

Edmunds on the option definitely had his best year as a Bill. I said before the season it was 50/50 on them signing him. I now strongly believe they will.

Oliver is already under contract.
