‘Allen should benefit greatly from entering offseason workouts and beyond as the unquestioned starter. The big unknowns are how much Allen has done on his own to improve his throwing mechanics – particularly as they apply to his ability to be more accurate – and how quickly he can develop chemistry with as many as four new targets (not counting new running backs) and a revamped offensive line.’

8 biggest questions for Buffalo Bills entering OTAs
‘Jerry Hughes is entering the final season on his contract with the Bills. After recording back-to-back double-digit sack seasons in his first two seasons with the team, Hughes has been held to 22 sacks over the last four seasons. Although his sack totals have dropped, it’s no fault of Hughes. The defensive end is among the best in the league at creating pressure and hasn’t had much help in the pass-rush in recent years. That should change in 2019 with Ed Oliver creating pressure from the inside and it could lead to a big season for Hughes.’
Buffalo Bills OTAs 2019: Which position battles should you be tracking?
‘Beane signed free agent swing tackle Ty Nsekhe, who played four seasons in Washington, to a two-year deal worth $10 million ($6.2 million guaranteed). That’s the second-most guaranteed money of any offensive linemen on the team behind new franchise center Mitch Morse, who inked a four-year deal worth $44.5 million (with $26.175 guaranteed).’
Did Bills’ Brandon Beane have best offseason of any GM? One NFL analyst thinks so
‘It’s more than just the players they brought in. The haul (of players) itself is enough and it speaks on itself. When you start talking about guys like John Brown, who can extend the field for Josh Allen. You add Frank Gore, Mitch Morse – who’s considered one of the best centers in the league. And then the rookies Ed Oliver and Cody Ford, who are both considered Top 15 talents – they get both of them. But I like the attitude that Brandon Beane had this offseason.’

Bigger and stronger: Wide receiver Zay Jones is primed to build his game this spring
‘“I have been focusing on how I can maximize my frame and my body to be the best I can this year,” Jones told Buffalobills.com. “I think it’ll help in many aspects. My blocking, my play strength, endurance, stamina, prevention of injury. Nothing is guaranteed.

Bills Today: What’s the biggest question for Bills heading into OTAs?
‘Allen was thrown into the NFL with not much help as a rookie. He took snaps with the second-team for the majority of the offseason and wasn’t able to develop as much chemistry with the rest of the group. But, that also led to the connection that Allen and Robert Foster had in the latter half of the season.’
