‘Moss’ cousins Santana and Sinorice Moss are NFL wide receivers. Zack Moss not only chose to play a different position, he selected a different college. Santana and Sinorice played at the University of Miami. Zack Moss originally committed to the Hurricanes but changed his mind and opted for Utah.’

What should the Bills do on Day 2 of the NFL Draft: Just about anything they want
‘From that perspective, the Bills probably did as well or better than every other team who made a pick Thursday night as they obtained a ready-made NFL star at a position of need who will surely be ready to go whenever the on-field portion of the 2020 season begins.’
Roth: Singletary was draft gold, but Bills most gaping hole remains at running back
‘Singletary is 5-foot-7, 203 pounds and will never be confused with Jerome Bettis. He’s not built for three-down duty, in fact, few running backs are. Like Thurman Thomas needed Kenneth Davis, Woody needed Buzz and Cheech needed Chong, Singletary needs a running mate, a partner in the fight against evil and the quest for late-night munchies.’
A position-by-position breakdown of how the Bills can fortify their roster in NFL Draft
‘It doesn’t seem like T.J. Yeldon, Taiwan Jones and Christian Wade will fill that No. 2 role. Depending on how the board falls, it’s possible that Wisconsin’s Jonathan Taylor or Ohio State’s J.K. Dobbins slip to No. 54, but it’s more likely that LSU’s Clyde Edwards-Helaire is there, and he looks like an ideal fit in Buffalo’s offense given his ability to catch the ball.’
Roth: Randy Moss and Aaron Rodgers picked by the Bills? It maybe, could have happened
‘Comparing the assets acquired (linebacker Cornelius Bennett, quarterbacks Rob Johnson and J.P. Losman, wide receiver Sammy Watkins) for the assets relinquished (five first-round picks, two seconds, a fourth and a fifth) in the years 1988, ’89, ’98, ’05 and ’15 provides plenty of fodder for historians.’
Buffalo Bills draft 2020: Five cornerback possibilities to consider
‘Last season, the Bills had at least five defensive backs on the field for about half the defensive snaps. And because the Bills enjoyed remarkable health, the group usually consisted mainly of White, Wallace, Poyer, Hyde and Johnson. When they went to six DBs, the player who most often got the call was now-departed Kevin Johnson.’
2020 NFL draft: 6 running backs the Buffalo Bills could select this week
‘The only other running backs on the current roster are T.J. Yeldon and practice squad member Christian Wade, so it seems like a pretty safe bet Buffalo will be picking one at some point in the draft, and perhaps might add a veteran free agent after that, too.’
2020 NFL Draft: How to watch, stream, plus draft order and Buffalo Bills picks
‘Originally scheduled to take place in Las Vegas in conjunction with the Raiders arrival in the city, the draft will now be held virtually with teams making their selections remotely and Commissioner Roger Goodell announcing selections from his home in New York.’
Roth: Hope springs eternal each NFL draft, especially this year
‘The league has shipped technology to 58 top prospects, led by LSU quarterback Joe Burrow and Ohio State defensive end Chase Young, so live player reactions and interviews will be plentiful. Who will be this year’s Thurman Thomas, caught dozing off? And with ABC, ESPN and NFL Network personalities plugged in, analysis will flow until the last eyelids are shut.’
Buffalo Bills 2020 Draft: Seven possible second-round wide receiver options
‘Quite the contrary, with so many talented receivers available, it would be wise for Beane to think about the future and start developing a player who could replace Brown when his contract expires after 2021, not to mention someone who would probably move right into the No. 4 spot on the depth chart this year.’
Buffalo Bills 2020 Draft: Five edge rushers who could be available in second round
‘“You can never have enough pass rushers,” said Beane, whose 2019 Bills amassed a respectable 40 sacks which ranked 10th in terms of sacks per pass attempt. “At the end of the day there’s guys in this draft that I’m already aware of who can come right in and play for us right now. Those guys usually go pretty quick, though.”’
NFL Draft: Not having a first-round pick is a rarity for the Buffalo Bills
‘Here’s a look back at the other drafts in which the Bills did not make a pick in the opening round, the reason why, and who wound up being the first player they chose.’
Buffalo Bills fans who donate to coronavirus fund could win draft-related prizes, tours
‘”I’m grateful for individuals in Buffalo and across the country that are on the frontlines – doctors, nurses, first responders, grocery store workers, pharmacists, all the people that are trying to help others and are putting their own health at risk for this big cause,” Beane. “There’s no way to really thank them, but hopefully this is a good way for the rest of the community to help.”‘
Bills QB Josh Allen on entering his third season: ‘I understand how big of a year it is’
‘“I think what we’ve got going on in Buffalo is a special thing and I’m super excited and I’m fortunate to be part of it,” Allen said Friday during a Zoom video conference with reporters. “Now we need to see results and I understand how big of a year it is.”’
Bills GM Brandon Beane: Stefon Diggs’is not a diva’; Patriots are still team to beat
‘“I know this guy knows ball, he will be able to understand the verbiage once he learns our system quicker than (a draft pick),” said Beane. “A lot of the stuff in college is all signaled in. A lot of these guys aren’t in huddles. So, the biggest transition for these receivers, beyond the routes, the physical stuff, is just hearing these long play calls in the huddle and processing it in their head. The mental part is so hard. And that’s why I think so many receivers, we talk about it all the time, probably one of the higher bust rates across the league. I think it’s more mental than physical.”’
