A Lifelong Fan's Take on
Bills Football

The NFL schedule was released two weeks ago. Yes, I am late on publishing this one, and the Buffalo Bills will start the season on Sunday Night Football in a rematch of their playoff game against the Baltimore Ravens. Buffalo’s strength of schedule ranks 5th easiest in 2025, based on total win percentage, and is the only team in the NFL that is currently the favorite in all 17 games.

While writing my recent key takeaways blog, I thought a few players may be on the trade block before the 2025 season kicks off. The Bills have bolstered their roster this offseason, particularly the defensive line. A few players are entering the final year of their current contracts, and players behind them are waiting for an opportunity. Buffalo also needs some cap relief, as they currently have $2.6 million in space.

It’s been a little over a week since the draft concluded, and I used that time to learn more about the 9 new members of the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo drafted five straight defenders and finished using six of their nine selections on the defensive side of the ball. The message became pretty clear with how the front office and coaching staff viewed the roster, and their plan to address it going into the 2025 season.
