Jerboski Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 If this prevents a deal for David, or another upgrade at OL then count me out and an aging safety for a defense that hasn’t stopped anyone in the playoffs the last two years…. Why 1 2 1 Quote
Yantha Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Guessing the offers he was seeing out there weren't MUCH higher than what the Bills were willing to give. Bet it's a minor pay cut, but you get to stay home, no moving, assuming he has kids (same school) etc etc... Lots of factors to consider and if you are getting let's say 1 million more to go.... he may just have said screw it. Love my teammates etc... Quote
Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 Love it, much more valuable to the defense than Edmunds, hopefully Hyde gets to 110% and we get 2-3 more seasons of the best safety tandem in the league. Quote

Why It doesn't. Extend DaQuan Jones. Restructure Dion and Tre. Trade Ed. That's around 25 Mil in space 2 Quote
Magox Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 My guess is that it's probably a 2 year $20 Million deal with about $8-$10 Million guaranteed with base salary around $5 Million, loaded with incentives that could reach $20 Million. Quote

I wouldn't draft one early, but with both safeties in their 30s, it's time to add at least one good developmental prospect. 4 2 Quote

With a healthy Tre and Dane likely back, it might make sense to begin the Benford-to-safety transition during camp. Quote
Warriorspikes51 Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 (edited) The Secondary is basically set. Tre Elam Dane Benford Johnson Neal Poyer Hyde Benford Anderson Edited March 15, 2023 by Warriorspikes51 1 2 Quote
Wagner Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 The way he acted when the season was over begging other teams to pay and sign him shows he was only thinking of himself. I am good either way but his actions and the way he put himself out there 👎. I thought he was more classy then that! 1 Quote
Riverboat Ritchie Posted March 15, 2023 Posted March 15, 2023 At end of day it’s money that drives the decision as it should be but there has to be a part of him that loves the organization and knows if we got lucky and went on a run like we were having before 13 secs and won this VL, this group would figuratively have immortality in WNY.

Considering how broken Poyer was even early in the season I would disagree. If he can stay healthy that's ideal, but we basically have nobody behind him who I like. Quote

Maybe a 6th. Benford is for sure got time to make the move. If Dane Jackson end up on the team, they are more than set at CB. Quote

True badass and part of the best safety tandem in the league lol--that was the weirdest team medical decision I've ever heard of: "you are cleared for full contact, including helmets to the chest....but you can't fly in a pressurized commercial airliner. too risky!"

I respectfully disagree, both had either serious or lingering injuries all last year. Poyer had a knee, elbow, and rib that slowed him down pretty bad at the end. Hamlin and Lewis aren’t starting caliber players, and Benford is an unknown at safety Quote
