    Re: Report - Poyer Returning To Bills

    As Bills fans this should be exactly what we want. He's good, but he's a bit long in the tooth and is probably going to start declining soon. We didn't throw long term money at an aging player but we still have whatever he has left in the tank.

      true but there is a chemistry between Hyde and Poyer that was missing last year. Glad he’s back

        It’s always been the Bills strategy to not give in to his vocal demands and keep the door open for after he had a chance flirt with other teams, and have them not flirt back because (like women in their early 20’s) are more attracted to younger guys with more stamina.


        Give him the room to realize how good he really has it in Buffalo.

          Great to have him back man, his market must have been poor, or rather his options poor. He might have wanted Miami but Im not sure it was reciprocated.

          Glad hes back!

              It takes a bit of pressure off of Beane. I still think it would serve the team best to consider moving Benford to safety and learn behind Hyde, and draft Poyer's replacement to learn under him.

                I'll bet that's exactly what the Bills have in mind it makes the most sense.

                  This is the best signing they could have had in FA'CY.

                  1. Do they shame him into coming back by saying something like.."Josh, Steph, Von etc. all restructured so we could pay you more money."?;

                  2. If so, did he believe it?

                  3. Did Pegula secretly agree to cover his NYS tax liability?

                  4. Will it count against the cap?

                  So...as it stands now, they've lost 1 starter from last season. Am I right? And they get 2 back who weren't there at the end of last season, Von and Hyde.

                  Don't be surprised if Jack Campbell isn't taken at 27...ok, maybe be a little surprised.

                    dude wants to win… there is still a Q at QB in Miami. Tua has to show resilience

                    Patriots not winning crap for a while. Any other “contenders” show any interest?

                      White counts too, as he was nowhere near 100% last year, when he played. Will he be next season? Remains to be seen

                        Campbell is the no brainer choice JMO.

                        If you want him round 2 would be too late.

                          Any guesses?

                          I'll go with 2 years, $20 million.

                            He is. But there are a few others to consider. Overshown...fun to watch...and he's built like a little lighter version of Edmunds. But like Edmunds...idk...does some stupid things. Like others, he's converted DB and is learning the position.

                            A couple of others to consider outside of round 1.

                            Dorian Williams is a great athlete who is just learning the position. Smallish, maybe better built for the outside..but he can also cover.

                            If not Campbell, this is my number 2 guy..

                            Daiyan Hebnley, Washington St.



                            Moves sideline to sideline, covers, makes plays in the backfield and at the LOS. Had a great Senior Bowl week.

                              Always takes 2 years to fully come back from an ACL, unless you're Adrian Peterson. I have faith he'll be back to his old self

                                Not sure I want him. He's on the slow side for coverage responsibilities. Kind of the AJ Epenesa of linebackers, not terrible, just meh

                                Rather see if the Bills can find a way to fit Bobby Wagner under the cap. Kind of a bad year to draft a linebacker.
