Bills Mailbag: Weighing pros and cons of a potential trade for Christian McCaffrey
‘Aside from the obvious connections to the Buffalo Bills’ front office, one of the reasons the talk about McCaffrey coming to Buffalo likely won’t die down until after the trade deadline has passed is because his contract is actually ridiculously affordable. Any team that trades for McCaffrey would only be on the hook for the prorated amount of his $1.035 million base salary. That’s relative peanuts. McCaffrey does have three more years on his contract, but none of that money is guaranteed, so the Bills – or any other team – could either redo the contract or release McCaffrey free and clear. That makes the possibility of a trade palatable.’

The Bills paid Von Miller to beat Patrick Mahomes. Now’s his chance: Bills vs. Chiefs preview
‘Miller has been worth every penny of his $120 million deal through five games.

How to watch Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs: NFL Week 6 time, TV channel, live stream
‘The last time these teams met was at the AFC Divisional round game, where Kansas City’s offense outlasted Buffalo’s enough to win on an overtime touchdown and end the Bills’ season.

Mahomes totaled 650 passing yards and five touchdown passes, along with 130 rushing yards and a rushing score in those two matchups, often using his scrambling ability to create big plays off-script.’
