Bills Today: Benjamin finally has time to learn the playbook
‘“Last season, it was different because I didn’t really learn the playbook,” said Benjamin. “I really only learned that week’s game plan.

I was on a week-to-week basis and I just had to stay extra and kind of just cram it all in.”’

MMQB predicts Buffalo Bills to be league’s worst team in 2018
‘A stacked box means the quarterback will look to take chances down the field, and that’s a problem with first-rounder Josh Allen. He was the least-accurate and most turnover-prone top quarterback in the draft. It all spells a big step back for the surprise playoff team from 2017.’
Buffalo Bills named potential trade partner for Saints LB A.J. Klein by CBS Sports
‘Wilson’s list is speculative so there’s no guarantee that the Saints will look to move Klein. That said, New Orleans signed Demario Davis in the offseason.

‘”Basically we wrench ’em up, sand ’em all down, paint ’em up, get on a creeper, and sandblast under ’em. It’s dirty work, but, it’s just kind of the roots I’ve been molded by,” he said. “Anything basically that you need to do to get a bus ready, we can do it.”‘
7 observations from 2018 Buffalo Bills OTAs, Week Three
‘And on Thursday, while Allen showed that he could zing in some passes, he also made an incorrect decision with the ball late in practice with a big underthrow that led to an interception.
