‘I didn’t think Adams and Kupp were great fits here. It remains to be seen if Palmer is, but he’s known as a great route runner who gets separation. That’s something the Bills sorely lacked last year in their receiver room. It’s fair to criticize the signings of Harty and Samuel (so far) because they haven’t produced the desired results, but that doesn’t mean Beane should stop pursuing players at the position in free agency. Let’s see how Palmer does before we criticize the signing. Let’s remember, too, that Beane signed both John Brown and Cole Beasley as free agents, and they both proved to be great pickups.’

Bills bring back Dane Jackson to bolster depth at cornerback
‘The Bills needed depth at cornerback with Rasul Douglas – a starter last season – unsigned and an unrestricted free agent. Additionally, cornerback Kaiir Elam was traded to the Dallas Cowboys, leaving just Christian Benford and Ja’Marcus Ingram atop the depth chart at outside cornerback.’
Buffalo Bills add offensive lineman Kendrick Green
‘Since he entered the league in 2021, Green has played in 36 games with 19 starts. Last season, he played in all 17 games for the Texans with one start. During that season, he played 16% of offensive snaps and 17% of special-teams snaps.’

Ryan O'Halloran: Winners, losers from opening week of NFL free agent, trade period
‘Bills CB Christian Benford. Under contract at cornerback (not including the nickel spot) are Benford, Brandon Codrington, Ja’Marcus Ingram, Daequan Hardy and Te’Cory Couch. I’m sure GM Brandon Beane has a plan to find Nos. 2-3 cornerbacks, it’s just a matter of when we will know.’
Cornerback returns to Buffalo Bills after a season with Carolina Panthers
‘However, this is merely a move to make sure the Bills have a veteran who knows this system to battle for a backup job. Christian Benford is locked in as one starter, and the Bills absolutely need to either sign a starting-level veteran free agent, or spend either a first- or second-round draft pick.’
Did Bills find a new kick returner? Buffalo signs WR with 97-yard TD on his resume
‘Given where Shenault is five years into his underwhelming career, it would seem his chances of making the Bills’ 53-man roster hinges on one thing: Can he become the team’s full-time kickoff returner, a duty he has added to his repertoire since 2022, though even that seems like a longshot.’
NFL free agency 2025: Buffalo Bills sign 2 former day two draft picks, reunite with CB
‘Green, 26, is a former third-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers. The offensive lineman spent two seasons with the Steelers before he was traded to the Houston Texans. Green has struggled in his first four seasons in the league, but he adds position versatility as he can play all three spots on the interior of the offensive line. Aaron Kromer has a long track record of getting the most out of his linemen and will look to help Green get his career on track.’
Bills GM reveals 2 free agent additions are facing suspensions for PED violations
‘Not an ideal situation for the Bills, who have been working to rebuild their defensive line early in free agency. Hoecht and defensive end and Ogunjobi at defensive tackle are two of the three big names that Beane signed this week. Edge rusher Joey Bosa was the biggest fish Beane landed.’
Bills FA acquisitions — Hoecht, Ogunjobi — each to face six-game PED suspensions
‘“Everyone else has already agreed and signed, so the pool has been thinned out, and so, by the time we learn this, and what are your options?” said Beane. “So, you either stay with the player or (find a lesser option).”’
Two players signed in free agency set to begin Bills tenure with 6-game ban for PEDs
‘It’s unusual for a team to sign a player knowing they are headed for a suspension. How about two?’
