Huh? 
 

I mean this isn’t a problem. But, what? 

 

I think I forgot they traded Hock - I really like their offense it’s one of the best olines in the league.  2 good RBs.  Swift can be elite.  I think St. Brown is.  If we are missing Poyer vs them it won’t be a cakewalk on defense.

sweet deal Dean knows the system and played well when called upon

 

imo this has more to do with Jaquan Johnson then Poyer

Marlowe immediately replaces Jaquan. Now we just see how long Poy is out?

[unbillievable]

Will they cut him when Poyer comes back?

 

Feels like they're throwing away draft picks.

Bills go from having the best safety tandem in the league to one of the worst in half a season. 😩

All that aside-

 

They haven’t given up more than 21 points all season. That includes the chiefs, dolphins, titans and reigning super bowl champs. 
 

Jared Goff will not hang 35 on this team, with or without Poyer or Hockenson in either lineup IMO.

 

They are elite.

Marlowe has to be a joke.

Why aren’t you on the Phin’s board now? I’m sure they are planning SB parties already.

So is Hodgins done as a Bill?

Did we keep Gentry over Hodgin’s? Oops thought he was being released from practice squad🤦‍♂️

We needed an experienced plug and play guy, on the cheap, who can step in immediately until Jordan Poyer's injury is settled. We don't have time to baby sit at this point in the season. Dean Marlow is the answer.

This move actually makes me fairly concerned about Poyer's injury. Hamlin and Johnson is a huge step down from where we started the year. I hope Poyer isn't gone for the year.

 

This is likely a replacement for Cam Lewis. Bills had only been carrying 3 real safeties since Hyde went on IR. At the very least if Poyer misses any time we gave Hamlin, Johnson and Marlowe and we don't have to rely on Cam Lewis at S.

We had a total of 3 Safeties on the roster and now Poyer's availability is in question. Another Safety was necessary before Poyer got hurt again. Marlowe isn't going anywhere this season.

I called for this in the “when is Benford moving to safety” thread.
 

This trade made too much sense not to at least check in on. I’m just surprised the Falcons said yes.

 

Marlowe knows and has produced in our defensive system. Should hit the ground running.

 

Neither this nor Hines are earth shattering moves, but both make the Bills better and deeper.

 

It was all you man

Welcome back Dean. I'm guessing Poyer's not coming back this season.

 

It's amazing the giant leaps people make with minimal information. Hines signs: They are done with Cook.  Marlow signs: Poyer is done for the year.  Seriously?  Anyone ever year of depth?

 

I'm not saying Poyer won't be out. I'm not even sure the Bills know for sure at the moment. Just don't know why you would immediately jump to the most extreme conclusion.

So we've given up a 6 and a 7 and added quality depth. 

 

 

Add Moss to what they gave up. But it looks like a classic Beane move that should help the team moving forward, IMO. Nothing splashy, just smart.

 

There may be a FA move coming, as well.

We are 6-1, the best team in the NFL and some fans dislike half the team. It’s weird. 

[without a drought]

Dean made a few big plays here a few years back.

Some of these peeps posting seem like they don't like the team at all. Very strange to me...

 

Go Bills!!

And, let's face it, some are simply clueless football fans.

[ScorpionZero]

He's a fine back up, plus he's played allot in the big nickel. No problem with him coming back

Marlowe officially acquired in exchange for Mr. Irrelevant!  I'll take it.
