Miller: Buffalo already everything Stefon Diggs said it would be
‘“Man, I love these guys,” said Miller on Tuesday upon being with most of his new teammates for just over 24 hours. “You know, I knew about it. I know about the team. I know about the players here. But the collection of guys, the collection of personalities, is nothing like I’ve ever been on.”’
Allen: Don’t need to be here, but ‘absolutely want to be here’
‘”As a quarterback, I’m just an extension of the offensive coordinator,” Allen said. “Whatever [Dorsey’s] trying to call on the field, I have to go out there and understand why and execute.”‘
Beane wishes Poyer was at workouts, but ‘there’s no conflict’
‘“I’m a big fan of Jordan,” Beane told reporters Wednesday inside the Bills media room. “I think he’s done a great job here for five years. I know what’s been reported out there. I don’t talk about contracts, just like we didn’t talk about [Stefon Diggs], or Josh [Allen], or any of the other other guys. So there’s really not a lot more. I got nothing but glowing things to say about Jordan and his family. That’s probably as deep as I can get into it.”‘
Beane not opposed to taking running back in first round of NFL Draft
‘”Yeah, I would look at both,” he said. “Depending on who the player is, and what am I giving up, what’s it going to cost me.”‘
Bills primed for plenty of national exposure once again in 2022
‘“You have to think about our biggest windows,” North said, referencing the Bills and where they could be placed in the schedule over the 18-week regular season. “When we think about our biggest windows… the Bills have been on Thanksgiving quite a bit recently. They do play Detroit on the road, and somebody’s got to go to Detroit on Thanksgiving. It could be Buffalo, it could be Miami [Dolphins], it could be a cross-flex where we take a FOX game and we make it Chicago [Bears] or Green Bay [Packers], or something like that. There are options, but Buffalo has got to be one of them.”’
Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes to take on Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers in ‘The Match’
‘This will mark the sixth edition of “The Match”, which has become a way for NFL players and golfers to compete against one another, while also raising money for a good cause. The proceeds from this year’s event will go towards Feeding America and other philanthropical organizations.’
Bills begin offseason program on Tuesday
‘Phase 1 consists of the first two weeks of the nine-week offseason program. During this phase, as outlined in the collective bargaining agreement between the NFL and NFL Players’ Association, only strength and conditioning coaches who have no other coaching responsibilities are allowed on the field with players, who can only be there to participate in basic strength and conditioning or rehabilitation exercises.’
Opinion: Tom Brady to Miami only threat to Bills in AFC East
‘If I were a betting man, and I am, I’d bet on Tom Brady being a Dolphin in 2023.’
Bills bring back Bobby Hart on one-year deal
‘The Tennessee Titans signed Hart off the Bills practice squad in October. He played three games for them, including one start, but was then released leading to the Bills signing him once again to the practice squad. He was elevated to the active roster for one game, and played only one snap.’
For Stefon Diggs, new deal is all about staying with his Bills family
‘“For me, it was more that family,” Diggs told reporters Thursday just after signing his new four-year contract extension. “That family oriented….from the top to the bottom, Kim and Terry (Pegula), and the coaching staff, how they’re brought up, how we’re developed, how our conversations are and the relationships that I’ve built in such a short span of time.”‘
Report: Stefon Diggs signs massive contract extension with Bills
‘There’s no question Diggs is the No. 1 receiver on this Bills team, but there was a lingering question about his current contract and if the Bills or Diggs feel they needed to re-work it. This given Tyreek Hill’s new $30 million per-year deal with the Miami Dolphins and Davante Adams’ $28 million per-season deal with the Las Vegas Raiders.’
O.J. Howard: Opportunity for more targets here
‘”Buffalo wasn’t an option that really crossed my mind, but my agent’s said ‘Buffalo, look at this!’ and then when put it on paper I started to notice, man these guys were so close the past two seasons, a lot of teams had two tight ends already.”‘
Bills re-sign Ryan Bates and Taiwan Jones
‘Two signings that were reported, and also confirmed by Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane last week, have now both been made official via pen and paper.’
Beane: Stefon Diggs’ contract ‘won’t be a storyline’ with Bills
‘“We’ve got Stefon for two years, we know that,” Beane told reporters that Friday afternoon while also discussing the team’s offseason moves, including signing pass rusher Von Miller. “At the right time we’ll work with his reps and see if there’s something to be done that makes sense for him. It’s got to be fair. It’s got to make sense for him. Make sense for us. But Stef’s been great. I know he reached out to Von, when he heard, on the recruiting process. I know Josh (Allen) did, as well. He’s a winner. He’s all-in on winning and sure, everybody wants to be paid, but he wants to be on a winning team and I think he’s been the best version of himself, so I don’t see that being an issue.”’
