#4 – Jordan Poyer, CB – Buffalo Bills

Not the hottest name on the list, but by golly can Jordan Poyer play ball.

More from Lions News

His stock is on the verge of exploding, but for now, he’s under the radar and vastly underpaid.

For how long will that last?

I’d bet the Buffalo Bills wouldn’t just give him up, but the right offer could get them to bite.

They’re a young team that needs some star power.

He’s a play-making free safety/cornerback with a lot to offer.

$3.875 million and $3.825 million dollars is all he’d cost against the salary cap.

2018 stats: 16 games/16 starts; 100 tackles, 2.0 sacks, 6 passes defended, 4 interceptions, 1 forced fumble

Fair compensation: Marvin Jones Jr. but Detroit also receives a 2021 conditional 4th-5th round pick
