DCOrange Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Not sure I'd bother but I'd understand if Beane did.

I think this would be a good low risk signing. If Poe can just maintain his position and tie up his man at the LOS while not getting pushed back 5 yards on every down then he'd be an improvement over the DT group's performance to date. 1
MAJBobby Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I am getting more and more Sold that the Bills are not going to do anything this trade deadline. I think they are in a position that they are going to want to keep their draft picks, because we are going to be getting to a point next year that we will need rookie contracts and contributions as we move older veterans off the roster (because we just do not have the cap space). The Extra 5th we have would be perfect compensation for Poe. 1 Bills original selection 2 Bills original selection 3 Bills original selection 5 Acquired from Raiders for Zay Jones 5 Bills original selection 6 Bills original selection 7 Bills original selection 7* Acquired from Panthers for Marshall Newhouse
Rk_Bills86 Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Getting Poe - on a cheap contract - and in a rotational role.... Honestly that sounds great. Everyone rips on some players for being "bad run defenders" or not showing up on the stat sheet (small shout out to our big man sitting home for the season - you're under appreciated). Just for reference - here are 3 players - one is playing 45% of Def snaps - another 55% and another 65% - Guess the order (you can guess the names as well if you'd like)
BuffaloBobs Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I would take a hard look at Poe -- we don't have anyone filling that space eater role successfully and it's a role that he could fill even if his athleticism is diminishing in terms of his ability to rush the passer. If he's released and can be acquired for nothing it is totally worth taking a look at.

We already have Butler and Addison from that defense. Would Poe really be of any help (a third defensive lineman from that team)? Is it just me or are all bad defenses "historically" bad.😉

Coach Tuesday Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Would prefer to just sign him to a vet minimum contract after they cut him. 2

The "window" doesn't stay open forever. I wouldnt even wait until he is cut. We have an extra 7th and extra 5th. They sold off Griffen for a 6th, so Send the extra 7th or up to the extra 5th (if needed) to secure him. 1

I am not so good with cap suff.… if we traded for him, how much of his 2020 salary are we responsible for? Last I heard, we only had about 3.5mill in cap space. A guy like him would most likely eat that up pretty quick.
uticaclub Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Why do we want players from a worse defense than ours?

Last I heard, we only had about 3.5mill in cap space. A guy like him would most likely eat that up pretty quick. About 1.125M left to pay. So with 4.7M in space it can fit easy 1
Cheektowaga Chad Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Why send the cowboys anything unless they think another team is? Lets be honest with them being former panthers we are the top landing spot if they are cut lol
