‘There is no parking at St. John Fisher University.

What to watch at start of Bills’ training camp
‘The Bills targeted Diggs 160 times last season, in line with his first three seasons’ worth: 166 in 2020, 164 in 2021 and 154 in 2022. Since 2020, he’s ranked first, fifth, fifth and seventh in targets among all NFL pass-catchers. Davis, meanwhile, was third on the team with 81 targets last year. In total 56.5% of Josh Allen’s 2023 targets went to players no longer on Buffalo’s roster. So where will they go in 2024? Allen might rely more on Dalton Kincaid in his second year and Khalil Shakir in his third. He also has several fresh faces in the huddle, most notably rookie Keon Coleman and veteran free agent Curtis Samuel.’
5 Bills training camp position battles to watch: Safety competition is biggest mystery
‘The question about the safety position is who will play alongside Rapp. The Bills signed veteran Mike Edwards, who comes to Buffalo after helping the Kansas City Chiefs win the Super Bowl last season. McDermott specifically mentioned Edwards when discussing who would play alongside Rapp this season. Veterans are usually the players McDermott trusts, and Edwards may have the best odds to win the other job.’

‘There is still a shot for Hamler, Shorter, Shavers and others to show they deserve the job, but they are on the outside looking in heading into camp.’
Bills Training Camp Primer: How much leeway does Sean McDermott get with retooled roster, staff?
‘The Bills have won a lot under McDermott, but winning also has a price. Given the roster turnover this year, it seems only a complete debacle would cost McDermott his job, but it’s fair to wonder how many times the Bills can afford to hit a wall in the second round.’
Bills Training Camp Primer: Only durability prevents Terrel Bernard, Matt Milano from being one of NFL's top tandems
‘“When we’re communicating with each other, he’s saying the communication before I even get it out,” Bernard said. “Just little things here and there, talking about the splits, about situational ball, like what’s coming, what the offense is presenting to us. Me and him have a really tight connection, and … we see things the same way, so having him right behind me, and just reciprocating what I’m thinking, it builds a level of confidence between both of us.”’
Opining on Bills training camp story lines, a historic Baseball Hall induction next year
‘That Josh has chosen to lead by word as well as deed is welcome news because the Bills team that opened training camp at St. John Fisher University this week is much younger and more inexperienced than it’s been, thanks to a dramatic, necessary roster makeover since the end of the 2023 season. All the changes, particularly the departure of enigmatic wide receiver Stefon Diggs, should make for a newsy camp, as newcomers and a few oldtimers battling back from poor or injury-truncated seasons attempt to keep Buffalo’s Super Bowl aspirations alive.’
Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld finally go Instagram-official after 1 year of dating

Bills' Keon Coleman Asked Funny Question Before Signing Contract, and Fans Loved It
‘Now he has a new clip that’s making the rounds on social media, and it’s pretty great. The former Florida State wide receiver was getting ready to sign his rookie contract with the team when he asked a very important question: should he sign his whole name or just sign it like he would an autograph, which apparently isn’t his whole name.’
Bills' $60 million star makes NFL Top 100 players list
‘The Buffalo Bills gave left tackle Dion Dawkins a three-year, $60 million extension back in March, and it was well-deserved.’
Bills ranked as top-tier team with bright long-term outlook
‘“Josh Allen isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, and the offense was already transitioning late last season to one built around emerging young stars Dalton Kincaid and James Cook,” Graziano wrote. “The Bills spent the offseason necessarily getting younger on defense, and under coach Sean McDermott’s leadership, that group should develop quickly.”’
Opinion: Bills open training camp with more questions than usual
‘Here are six of the bigger questions that need to be answered…’.
Opinion: Bills' training camp preview: Defense
‘In his 10 seasons prior to joining the Bills, Miller averaged 11 sacks. Needless to say, the Bills need the now 35-year-old to come back strong. That would help offset the loss of Leonard Floyd to free agency. Floyd led the Bills with 10.5 sacks last season.’
