Yeah, while the Ramsey trade doesn’t scare me, there is no denying adding both Ramsey and Poyer would be a pretty tough secondary. 2 2 Quote
HaldimandBills Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 He's gone and that's ok. We are a coaching staff loaded with defensive minds. We should be able to find cheaper guys and scheme a solid defense. It is offense where we need to invest. We were missing chunks of our defense for most of last year and still managed to run a top 10 defense. How about just stop being so predictable in your Cover 2 Zone and run more stunts along the defensive line. Not sure how this regime can't grasp that every weapon you add is another player on the opposing defense who can't focus on our QB. Honestly we made it way to easy on opposing defenses last year.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Drew’s job is to get suitors and bid up. I honestly don’t see why anyone overpays for him. Solid tough player but over 30 in a spot where athleticism is everything. Quote

Good for him. Not real impressed with his SM stuff. Go play for the Bills rival. Just stop telling the world about it. At $10 m Bills need to pass on this deal. 1 Quote
NewEra Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 (edited) Sheesh. Imagine Miami adding Ramsey and Poyer. I’ll be really disappointed if he goes there. And I fully expect it to happen. No taxes and has a house there. Makes too much sense Edited March 13, 2023 by NewEra 1 Quote

Seems to me that they already have a deal, especially with the sweating emoji, and I would assume that it’s Miami. Either way, oh well…..bye? If they do that is tampering. Of course Miami has done that before 1 Quote
transplantbillsfan Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Not gonna lie, if Edmunds is gone, I want Poyer back. Make it a 2 year deal. Dude was still playing at such a high level this season even with 6 injuries. He has an entire offseason to heal up. If I could choose between Edmunds or Poyer I'd bring Edmunds back, but that doesn't look like it's happening and honestly his pricetag and lack of impact plays just makes me hesitate. Poyer, on the other hand, is the vocal heart and soul of the defense and played really well in 2022 despite all the injuries and being without his running mate. Why not? Bring him back. 1 Quote

Because you can’t hide a 2 year contract. Edmunds, we could backload the deal, which doesn’t make much sense now with Milano extended. Poyer, we’re paying say 2/20? 10M AAV over 2 years, maybe less, either way that’s a lot of cap in an off-season where we need to give Allen some help. And Poyer was not playing at a high level. He was a liability towards the end of the season. Injuries played a part for sure, but also those injuries really racked up last year… Edited March 13, 2023 by SCBills Quote

This is exactly the time when you cut ties w/ an aging player. And I love Poyer. But it's over. He's reached the age of diminishing returns. Add injuries and contract expectations you must end ties. We'll have to do this again in 12 months with Micah. 2 1 Quote

If we haven't retained Edmunds at what would have been a minimum $8 or $9 million CAP hit, using that money on one of the highest impact players on your defense over the last 5 or 6 years and biggest locker room guys might not be unwise. I'm not predicting it happens, but if Edmunds walks, I'll be happy if it happens. Safety is INCREDIBLY important in McDermott's defenses. Quote

Agree that the Bills need offensive players and weapons. However, I have to question the statement the Bills are "loaded with defensive minds." Couldn't stop the Chiefs from scoring in 13 seconds or in OT. Did you see the defense vs Cinci. Some game plan? I'm sorry those defensive minds are so great. 1 Quote
Big Blitz Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 (edited) Dolphin mercenaries going there for all the wrong reasons. At least ones that don’t work out for Championship aspirations. To avoid taxes - sure. Let them shoulder being favorites. Watch it all come crumbling with the first Terron Armstead injury or Poyer - who gets his pay day - decides he no longer really needs to get on a plane with busted up ribs. This isn’t the NBA.

benderbender Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Deceive yourself if you must, but they were gone when she packed up their house. Nobody does that. Nobody moves if they don’t have to, even a wealthy athlete. If there was a chance of staying, you’d hold off on the moving men until you knew for sure. 1 1 Quote
