DraftKings Sportsbook has set the Buffalo Bills’ win total for the 2023 NFL season 10.5 wins

[HOUSE]

 

NFL free agency is now two weeks old and the 2023 NFL Draft is just weeks away, with the first round taking place the night of April 27. While there’s much to happen before the Buffalo Bills take the field for organized team activities (OTAs), and months to go before the team reconvenes at St. John Fisher University, now seems like a perfect opportunity to set expectations for upcoming season.

I got the Bills at 12-5 right now.  Let's see how the draft goes....

[Success]

It's a tough schedule. Still think we're a top 3 team - but around 11-12 wins sounds about right, given the opponents.

Seems low to me, 12 would be my guess

You found that wallet yet to have a bet on the over?

[aristocrat]

Hammer the over

[Big Turk]

Over

[JerseyBills]

Over

Super Easy $$ as long as 17 stays healthy.  

[The Wiz]

That's gonna be -700 if we get Hopkins.

[Billl]

The over is -140.  Basically, Vegas thinks they’re an 11-6 team which seems exactly right to me.  The interesting part IMO is that they don’t think the Bills win the division.

Get in quick - this will change significantly when the Bills get their WR (whichever good one they get - DHop, Jeudy, OBJ).

yes I felt slighted by 10.5 at first, but the schedule is just ridiculous. We play every single conference semifinalist from 2022 plus the Chargers, the Jets twice and Miami twice.

Feels steep.

[Billsflyer12]

The schedule is insane, one of hardest I’ve ever seen.  As of now I had them at 9 or 10, so 10.5 seems about right.

As long as we go undefeated in the postseason.

seems pretty hard right now.. but then again, the Rams and Packers games seemed tough when the 2022 schedule came out last May.

They see what’s going on, even if some fans want to ignore it.

 

- Miami has gotten a lot better this off-season. Fangio alone was a huge get. Add in Ramsey, who even if overrated is better than what they had, and Long who a good downhill thumping LB, and it’s gotten harder to beat them.

 

- The Jets beat us with that 18 year old they have at QB. Their defense is incredible. Not fake incredible like Mcd/Frazier’s. But actually incredible. They add Rodgers and things get real sticky. Rodgers would could put up only 20ppg and they would still likely make the playoffs.

Both have concerns as any team does:

MIA does Tua stay healthy?

NYJ can their D replicate, A lot of new parts - do they mesh, when will Rodgers fall off a cliff?

[US Egg]

12-5 ideal.

 

11-6 reasonable.

 

10-7 yikes.

I’m happy Vegas has us down a bit. Under the radar then stay healthy!!
