I would be good with that I agree. Even if the deal is a bit heftier the Bills should sign him ASAP. Just for continuity, the Bills can't lose both TE and JP and just think the D is going to just hum along. I would love a couple more years of the Hyde and Poyer show. The most dynamic duo in the NFL!! C'mon Beane, bring him back!! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should we be the ones that overpay for Poyer? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I kind of feel bad for Jordan Poyer. He DESERVES a big payday, but his long overdue All-Pro recognition came at age 30, and he's now 31. Just a bit too late for him to be able to properly cash in on it on the free agent market. Plus he has to listen to Rachel Bush talk on a daily basis. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He thinks he deserves more. At the end of the day his is an older guy who has dealt with recent injuries and did absolutely nothing until he came into this scheme. He is a very specific scheme fit, comes with baggage, and worried about taxes. He is a huge risk for teams in FA. Also, its a good safety group in FA and more than half the league drafted safeties last year from a loaded safety class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 He went from a backup on the 0-32 Browns to an All-pro earning $34M with the Bills. That's his big payday. Anything past that is icing on the cake to keep Rachel quiet. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeF Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 He gave the Bills his heart, soul and body. As others have pointed out - his NFL career blossomed in Buffalo. It was a mutual benefit situation. Now, its time for both to move on...the only if in this situation is "if" the price dives below $5M a year it may be worth a look. That will never happen. Rosenhaus will bundle Poyer with another client to keep the floor from going that low. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus he has to listen to Rachel Bush talk on a daily basis. I will give Poyer a lot of credit. He wanted to cash in on his final “big” contract after an All Pro season. I get the impression Buffalo didn’t want a multi-year extension. He hired Rosenhaus to play hardball - and he could have held out, or complained publicly to pressure the Bills or make them look bad. Instead he was a consummate professional on and off-the-field. He played through several injuries when he could have taken it easy on a contract year. You can even argue that the three Bills losses were due from his absence. I think he might be a little too proud to return to Buffalo but Poyer has been a great player for the Bills. The concern for me is how bad he broke down toward the end of the season. He had his worst game of the season in Cincinnati. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a Tuel Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 On 3/13/2023 at 1:36 PM, Big Turk said: No, they are what happens when you know you are leaving after having discussions with the Bills already that they are not signing him. Pretty much what we have already figured out, but this just confirms it. This is why you don't listen to the wives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
