More Bills players are honored by NFL professionals with ESPN’s survey for each position.
Added to Matt Milano and Von Miller ranked in the top 10, Tre’ White honrorbale mention, both Poyer and Hyde is accuratly recognized with an “honorable mention” which means the received several votes but not enough to place in the Top 10.
Very fair assessment of both of them.
Execs, coaches, scouts rank NFL's top 10 safties for 2023
Jordan Poyer, Buffalo Bills: Poyer has tallied 706 tackles, 11 sacks and 24 interceptions in his 10-year career. "You started to see some of the athleticism start to go last year, so maybe he's lost some of his ability to cover the field, but really instinctive and smart player, does everything right," an AFC scout said.
Micah Hyde, Buffalo Bills: Hyde tied for the team lead in interceptions (five) and fumble recoveries (two) in 2021. "I have no idea what to expect [coming off the neck injury]," a veteran AFC scout said. "But he's always been a really good safety and a good athlete, just older and on the decline."
The Top 10…
1. Minkah Fitzpatrick, Pittsburgh Steelers
2. Derwin James Jr., Los Angeles Chargers
3. Justin Simmons, Denver Broncos
4. Budda Baker, Arizona Cardinals
5. Jevon Holland, Miami Dolphins
6. Jessie Bates III, Atlanta Falcons
7. Kevin Byard, Tennessee Titans
8. C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Detroit Lions
9. Talanoa Hufanga, San Francisco 49ers
10. Antoine Winfield Jr., Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Honorable Mentions…
Marcus Williams, Baltimore Ravens
Quandre Diggs, Seattle Seahawks
Kyle Dugger, New England Patriots:
Jordan Poyer, Buffalo Bills
Micah Hyde, Buffalo Bills
Xavier McKinney, New York Giants
Jalen Pitre, Houston Texans
It will be great to have both Poyer and Hyde on the field together again. The Bills re the only team to have TWO safeties so recognized.
There is little doubt that the Buffalo Bills are blessed with the best safety tandem in the NFL.
