He won't, but he'll have a significantly better campaign than 2015.
If the the question is who to spend the money on assuming they have roughly equal levels of performance at their respective positions & already have about equal possible concerns about long term health / injuries, then ask yourself who's going to be easier to find a serviceable replacement on the cheap?
If the answer you came back with was replacing the athletic freak whose still big enough to anchor the very foundation in the middle of your defense which runs a scheme that requires a rather unique mix of size & speed among the necessary skillset to make the defense potently effective by getting enough pressure not only from both sides but up the gut, so re-sign Barry, obviously!
Then my answer would be welcome to American football, & I bet you're excited to watch your first game this upcoming Sunday!
This season is very much about whether '14 was a blip. The outlier in Poe's average otherwise career, or if '15 was simply the case of a guy who was never able to get healthy in season, but looking more like 2014 Poe than 2015 Poe in 2016.
To me, if they both have really good seasons, it's not even a question on who you lock up. All the same I definitely don't want to see Eric go. I'm hoping or wishing they can end up finding the space and get both of them back on reasonable deals. Emphasis on wish being the case.
