ColoradoBills Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 1 minute ago, Bruffalo said: Considering how broken Poyer was even early in the season I would disagree. If he can stay healthy that's ideal, but we basically have nobody behind him who I like. I guess we'll see. I think this surprise signing opens the draft for a good amount of offense in the first 2 days. The DL will need a lot more next year than the secondary. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoBills Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 4 minutes ago, TheyCallMeAndy said: I respectfully disagree, both had either serious or lingering injuries all last year. Poyer had a knee, elbow, and rib that slowed him down pretty bad at the end. Hamlin and Lewis aren’t starting caliber players, and Benford is an unknown at safety If Dane makes it through his tender Benford doesn't have a real job. Beane already hinted earlier this year his is S material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaw66 Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Well, I had this one backwards. I expected Bills wanted Edmunds and expected Poyer to leave. The aging of the safeties is a problem especially since neither Hamlin nor Johnson looked to be good enough to step in. Still, for now it means the only hole that needs to be filled is in the middle. Sure, there are other positions that could use some changes in personnel, but there's enough talent on the roster to put together a nicely functional defense. Most important, in my mind, is get another quality offensive lineman. Conner McGovern is, apparently one. Get another, to challenge and win a spot either at guard or tackle, and I'm happy. Get BPA out of the draft in the early rounds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niagara Dude Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 54 minutes ago, Big Blitz said: I like that he is returning, I will like it even more if we find out Beanne did not give him some stupid massive contract. He had not legit big offers, anything more than a 3 year deal with around 14-16 mllion guaranteed is overpaying because . You can absorb the final year that he may not play at 35 year old, cap number should be no more than 5-7 mllion range. The reality is there was never any huge market for him because of his age Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet it's a minor pay cut, but you get to stay home, no moving, assuming he has kids (same school) etc etc... Lots of factors to consider and if you are getting let's say 1 million more to go.... he may just have said screw it. Love my teammates etc... I'm guessing he didn't see any numbers higher than what the Bills were willing to give...hence why he is still here. I love Poyer and glad it worked out that he will still be here for a couple years but let's not pretend he had some last minute change of heart, this strictly came down to a business decision. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now add in the Agent Drew Rosenhaus and NO contract details yet I am going to think this is a very good contract for the Bills 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome back Jordan!! Let me clarify...I am not knocking Jordan and he deserved to get the biggest payday he could because this is going to be his last chance at this stage in his career, I just think a lot of people aren't realizing it just came down to there not being a market out there for him. This is a completely different situation than when Milano took the home town discount instead of going to free agency when his contract was up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
