If the Bills decide to sign him, I hope they have a plan for his skill set. Plus he plays SS, as does Taylor Rapp.
    I like how he plays against the run.

    Nice Wikipedia look-up. If you had watched Packer games, I did. His was the only name ever called from the secondary. He was quite well known.

    To Packers fans and hardcores. I knew who both of them were but I watch way too much football. I didn’t think Poyer was starting calibre and I had doubts about Hyde being particularly good.

    My point is average fans and media weren’t paying much attention to him and he was not a “celebrated” Free Agent. Except for by you, of course.

    lol

    He wasn't well known at all.

    A.) He played DB most of his time in GB, not safety

    B.) He was a backup for the majority of his time there

    C.) Stop making up stuff.

    Re: Julian Blackmon Free Agent Safety

    I didn't watch a lot of Packers games but when they started talking about him coming to Buffalo, I definitely recognized him as that DB from GB that was always everywhere.

    He was well known enough.

    Poyer, I knew nothing about.

    As I recall, I was shoplifting plumbing supplies at the time. That dancing grace took some effort let me tell you.

    Re: Julian Blackmon Free Agent Safety

    From what I remember, I was excited about both.

    Hyde was well known for being flexible and hadn't been placed in a permanent position, Poyer somewhat less being devalued because he was coming off a lacerated kidney or something....both were considered players still on their way to ceiling....those were glorious pickups....and it was a while ago now.
