Jordan Poyer 2020 Outlook: Undervalued Safety Continues Growth In Buffalo

May 29, 2020
The most underappreciated player on Buffalo's stout defense might just be safety Jordan Poyer. His five takeaways last year (two interceptions, three fumble recoveries) tied for 12th-most in the NFL, and he's now had back-to-back seasons with at least 100 combined tackles. Poyer ranked as the eighth-best safety in run defense in 2019. It's why Buffalo re-signed him to a two-year, $20.5 million deal this offseason. The former seventh-round pick has 296 tackles and 11 interceptions in his three years in Buffalo and finished as the No. 5 fantasy defensive back last year. The 29-year-old could easily go overlooked as a top-10 fantasy safety, and he's a fine consolation prize if you miss out on the high-end safeties like Jamal Adams and Derwin James. Playing in Buffalo's nasty defense should continue to make Poyer productive.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBallerRead More News
