‘The 27-year-old was drafted by the Bears with the second overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. Over the course of his career, Trubisky has gone 29-21, with all of those starts in Chicago.’

‘The 26-year-old McKenzie went into the year as the team’s primary kick and punt returner, but was used sparingly on offense. That was a head-scratcher for a lot of fans and media, considering the versatility he can bring.’

‘Kumerow has been a big special teams contributor for the Bills in both of the last two seasons. The 30-year-old also appeared in a career high 15 games for the Bills this past season.’

‘When I consider all of the options for the Bills and Edmunds moving forward, there are definitely several options for the Bills, which is always a good thing. They aren’t pigeon-holed. They aren’t in a bad spot. They are not without leverage. But this is coming to a head quicker than we all probably realize.’

‘Feliciano was expected to depart the Bills last offseason for more money elsewhere, but the two sides agreed to a deal to keep him in Buffalo.’

‘Klein’s biggest impact on the Bills came in the middle of the 2020 season when he rattled off five sacks in a five-game stretch. He even earned a nod as the AFC Defensive Player of the Week for a Week 12 game against the Los Angeles Chargers.’

‘Beane mentioned on Monday the Bills are a little more than $6 million over the cap, and will need to be under the salary cap by March 16 at 4 p.m. EST.’

‘To me this comes down to three positions: wide receiver, tight end and edge defender. I’d like to see the move come at wide receiver but I don’t think the Bills would be willing to hand out a second big contract at that position. Stefon Diggs is way under market value when you look at the two years left on his contract. His average annual salary is $14.4 million. What would be market value for Diggs? Kansas City’s Tyreek Hill just got an extension that is worth an average of $21 million a year.’

‘A big factor that also led to the Bills returning to St. John Fisher in 2022 is the fact that fans will be able to attend practices.’

‘Beasley has been with the team since 2019 and has been the teams primary slot receiver. Over three seasons Beasley has 227 catches, 2,407 yards and 11 touchdowns. Beasley was also a second-team All-Pro in 2020. Beasley will however be turning 33 at the end of April and the Bills could be looking to get younger at a key position.’

‘It sounds pretty clear, at this point, that the Bills will be looking for a new punter this offseason. General manager Brandon Beane basically said it at his end-of-season press conference.’

‘The most pressing short-term issue at this position is what happens with Levi Wallace. The most important longer-term issue is the recovery of Tre’Davious White from his torn ACL, suffered in November.’

‘What more can you say or write about a position that has two All Pros, both who’ve been with the organization for five years, are leaders of the number-one ranked defense in the NFL last year, and both still under contract for one and two more years?’

‘“Change is good once in a while,” McDermott said while speaking from a podium to a large gathering. “It’s different. I think there’s different perspectives that are brought to the table. New ideas. And I think that continues to challenge the norm and the standard, and I think that’s healthy. With that, though, comes some challenges of building that team that is within the overall team. So the staff, to me, represents a team within the team. The chemistry on the staff, getting people on the same page with how we’re teaching, whether it’s fundamentals, our offensive playbook, our defensive playbook, special teams, that’s critical, because then you’ve got to teach it a certain way and I think all of those little things lead to success on the field.”’

‘The Bills currently have seven linebackers on their active roster, and every one of them is under contract for the 2022 season. That’s great news, but does not mean there aren’t decisions to be made.’
