‘It turned out to be one of the smartest moves Bills general manager Brandon Beane has made. As the Bills’ defense was decimated by injuries las season, the addition of Douglas was an absolute force multiplier from the start, and once Douglas was away from Joe Barry’s passive Packers defense, he could really show off his skills.’

The shocking parallels between the 15-1 Panthers and 2024 Buffalo Bills
‘Sean McDermott has ironically enough constructed a team that mirrors the team that got him the job as head coach in the first place as he was the defensive coordinator for that Super Bowl Panthers team. With Josh Allen bleeding weapons after the loss of Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis, Allen will be reliant on the teams aggressive running attack and their two prolific tight ends in Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid. The Bills defense is as solid as ever behind the veteran head coach, anchored by monsters in the middle of the field in Matt Milano and Ed Oliver.’
Opinion: Lowering expectations for Bills in 2024
‘Here is what I think of the on-paper version of the Bills this year: They are a playoff team, no question about that. I still think they are the team to beat in the AFC East, but they won’t walk to the title like they did in 2021 and 2022.’

‘”The night before I don’t know I got kind of nervous. Just you know I got to come up here and talk to the kids and everything but just getting out here it’s surreal,” Kincaid told 7 Sports. “Just getting involved, going from drill to drill. They’re all super appreciative and it’s just really having fun out here.”‘
Matt Milano looks to ramp up injury recovery process at Bills training camp
‘When on the field, the eye test definitely will be on, looking to see how Milano cuts, what sort of burst he has, and if he’s back in the mix making plays as we’ve grown accustom to.’
Bills Camp Preview: Conner McGovern gets his shot at center
‘This one might be a touch of a reach. O’Cyrus Torrence started strong, but was exposed in pass protection late in his rookie year.’
Who are this year's Bills Training Camp sleepers?
‘Evans led the Bills in rushing last preseason and averaged 5.1 yards per carry. His skill set mimics that of James Cook more than the power backs, Johnson and rookie Ray Davis. If there’s an injury to one of the projected top three backs, Evans is a viable alternative.’

Christian Benford's blinders-on approach gives Bills stability at cornerback
‘“You can gain confidence when you lose and you learn,” Benford said. “And not just in games. And not looking at results. When you see yourself getting better and you continue to work on it, that’s how you gain confidence, no matter the result. You know that you’re getting better because you know how you work.”’

Brasky: Hakuna matata? How the Bills' offseason reminds me of 'The Lion King'
‘In “The Lion King,” after being tossed aside by his uncle, Simba met meerkat and warthog friends Timon and Pumbaa and reunited with an old friend, Nala, to help him restore his claim to the crown. In their effort to round out a new-look roster over the past several months, the Bills have brought in several fresh faces, including wide receivers Curtis Samuel and Keon Coleman, defensive backs Mike Edwards and Cole Bishop, among others, to help them maintain divisional prowess. Simba and friends used the Swahili phrase “Hakuna matata,” meaning no worries, as their motto. The Bills have repeated the words “everybody eats” many times throughout the offseason, creating their own rallying cry to guide them through a distinct transformation.’
Bills Training Camp Primer: Bills need defensive line to start producing in key moments
‘In their last four playoff losses, the Buffalo Bills have logged a total of four sacks, while allowing 5.6 yards per carry and 7 yards per play. With little pressure to deter them in those games, opposing quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow have completed 72.3% of their passes and thrown 10 touchdown passes with no interceptions.’
How many NFL teams would trade their quarterback for Josh Allen?
‘The only other two teams that I could even fathom saying they would keep their respective guys would be the Green Bay Packers and Houston Texans. Why? Because both Jordan Love and C.J. Stroud are top 10 quarterbacks in the game, and they are both on rookie contracts. Allen is obviously better than each of them, but if you’d make the argument that you want to go all in while you can with those two, I’d totally get that.’
