Bills agree to terms with Dean Marlowe

‘He appeared in nine games last season, making a pair of starts, as he was part of tandem with fellow S Siran Neal who filled in for an injured Taron Johnson.’

NFL analysts offer these grades and reactions for Buffalo’s 2020 free agency moves

‘”The Buffalo Bills got themselves a No. 1 wide receiver,” Baldinger said via a post on Radio.com. “I think that’s huge for the development of Josh Allen to go with John Brown and everybody else they have added to that team over the last two years. I think sometimes we look at players that got signed and got a boatload of money but sometimes you have to look at teams that have done a lot with what they have right now and I think that’s a big part of it too.”‘

Jordan Poyer not shedding any tears over Tom Brady leaving AFC East

‘“I’m not going to frown about it, you know?” Poyer said. “Obviously, he’s been there for 20 years. It’s going to be different faces in the (AFC) East now. Miami is getting some really good picks. The Jets are always going to be tough. … It’s going to be, whoever wants it is going to go get it. With Tom Brady gone, it’s a huge deal.”’

‘”And one of the things we’ve been able to kind of take a step back about is what this community has done for us in Buffalo, and how it’s changed our lives forever,” the Buffalo Bills’ center said Thursday by phone from his offseason home in Kansas City, Kan. “It’s given us the opportunity to never have to worry about much financially, so what was the best thing we could do? We sat down and said, ‘How can we help?’ “/

Vikings, Stefon Diggs parted because of irreconcilable differences

‘But coach Mike Zimmer’s distaste for offensive coordinator John DeFilippo’s approach went from private to public in the second half of the year, and after Zimmer fired DeFilippo in Dec. 2018, the Vikings reorganized their offense around Kevin Stefanski’s collaboration with Gary Kubiak. Cousins went under center most of the time; the Vikings used multiple tight ends more and featured Dalvin Cook in the running game. The approach rankled Diggs early in 2019, and after Thielen again became the team’s highest-paid receiver in April 2019, Diggs skipped portions of the Vikings’ offseason program. During that time, sources told the Star Tribune, the receiver was angling for a trade out of Minnesota.’

John Shipley: Buffalo won’t be magic for Stefon Diggs

‘Rick Spielman and the rest of the front office must have split their sides laughing as soon as they sealed Monday night’s deal. Diggs and a seventh-round pick to Buffalo for four picks, including a first-rounder in next month’s draft, is a win-win for the Vikings, a steal and an epic troll.’

Tom Brady to Bills would have been worst-case scenario for Patriots

‘Think of an organization with: ample space under the salary cap; a stout defense; a desperate need to win a Super Bowl for the first time; a newly acquired star receiver; a young quarterback still too raw to keep a team that has everything else from falling short.’

Bills have interest in Melvin Gordon; both sides open to potential deal, per report

‘Gordon, meanwhile, was one of the consensus top running backs available coming into free agency. The former first-round draft pick saw a 2019 holdout backfire as reserve Austin Ekeler proved more effective for the Chargers, and he’s had an up-and-down career in between injuries, playing all 16 games just once over his first five seasons in the NFL. At 26, however, with a 1,000-yard season and plenty of starting experience under his belt, he could still be capable of a prominent role for a contender.’

‘”This community and this team gave me a chance to never have to worry about money ever again,” Morse told 7 Eyewitness News. “They gave me the opportunity to provide for my daughter, my wife and my family.”‘
