Depending on where you first saw the news, new Buffalo Billsdefender Michael Hoecht may have been listed as a defensive end, defensive tackle or linebacker. Simply put, Hoecht can play all three and even drop into coverage as a jack-of-all-trades type of player.

Buffalo agreed to terms with the defensive unicorn on a three-year deal that is worth up to $24 million on Monday night

It does, but it kinda makes sense as well. I didn't realize he was 32, so he's kind of getting up there in age and perhpas more injury prone as someone pointed out.

Yep and he left for $8m?  Buffalo didn't try really hard to keep him.  He was entertaining though.

Hamlin I'm mixed about.  He's been improving and is a solid back up if nothing else.

Overall not unhappy with the choices Beane is making so far.  

And just LOL on Rodgers with the Steelers.

Perfect.  Was not a fan of Elam.

I’m gonna go with a “In Beane we trust” mentality for now. I think he’s doing some maneuvering still behind the scenes.

The Buffalo Bills have restructured linebacker Matt Milano’s contract, per Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports, as they continue adjusting deals for their players.

Milano agreed to a pay cut exceeding $3 million, though he can earn it back through incentives. The adjustment also moves up his free agency eligibility to 2026 instead of 2027. Originally, his two-year extension signed in 2023 was set to keep him in Buffalo through 2026, but he can now hit the market after the 2025 season.

Milano is my second favorite player, coming second only to Josh Allen. Before his leg injury the guy was a beast. If you haven’t seen that epic hit on Mike White a couple of years ago, you can watch it now:

He’s a very low key, quiet person and seems to save all the talk for the field.

Last season we started to see a trace of the old Milano. I’m hoping rest and more training gets him back to his old self.

But he IS getting older and the clock is ticking.

I like Milano a lot.  Honestly was a bit surprised they kept him and bit surprised he took a lower contract.  He was definitely starting to show signs of life again.  Hoping he can stay healthy.

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane has once again worked his magic to extend a cornerstone player at a team-friendly rate.

On Saturday, it was announced that the Bills and Christian Benford reached agreement on a four-year, $76 million extension. The deal comes out to $19 million on average, well below the asking price of top cornerbacks in the league.

Palm Beach, Fla. — The Buffalo Bills have handed out four contract extensions this offseason to players entering the final year of their contracts.

The one remaining candidate - Pro Bowl running back James Cook - apparently won’t join the club anytime soon.

Bills general manager Brandon Beane spoke to reporters on Sunday at the NFL’s Annual Meeting from the Breakers resort. He said the focus has shifted away from contract negotiations.

“At this point, we’re on to the draft once we got (Christian) Benford done," Beane said. “I don’t see us doing any deals anytime soon. We’re going to focus on the draft and getting our cap in order.”

The Buffalo Bills need speed and are doing their due diligence on one of the fastest wide receivers in the 2025 NFL Draft.

A source tells Syracuse.com that the Bills have shown “a lot of interest” in Tennessee Volunteers wide receiver Dont’e Thornton. Leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, the Bills have held multiple Zooms with the receiver and a private workout.

At the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, Thornton showed off his blazing speed when he ran a 4.3 40-yard dash. Thornton’s speed and excellent size (6′5″) make him an appealing option for the Bills early on day three of the draft.

The Buffalo Bills added a familiar face and additional depth to their cornerback room ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Thursday that the Bills agreed to a one-year contract with cornerback Tre’Davious White. The deal is reportedly worth up to $6.8 million.

White, 30, returns to Buffalo after one year away from the team. The Bills released White in March of 2024.

I've been trying to remember his name, but I read that he was the fastes guy at the combine. Rumore was Buffalo had their eye on him and Buffalo got him.

I am super pleased about this.  He's a rookie and new but so much potential.  If you didn't watch the whole video where they called him and told him he was coming to Buffalo, do it.

New Buffalo Bills defensive end Landon Jackson is just like the rest of us.

When his phone rang early in the third round of the 2025 NFL Draft, Jackson looked and quickly saw “potential spam” attached to the number. Spam calls have been on the rise and Jackson was ready to ignore the call until his wife intervened.

"I thought I was getting pranked to be honest with you. Then my wife said, ‘Go ahead and pick it up. I think it is somebody.’ Then I picked it up and they said, ‘This is the Buffalo Bills.’"

Those videos are the best reason to watch the draft. 

For hours, Hairston was there to congratulate every single guy that was picked ahead of him. Everything I've seen so far indicates he's going to be a great fit. 

And Beane's mission this draft  is beefing up the defense obviously. 

EDIT - I'm watching Hairston's first interview in Buffalo now and I defeinitely like this young man.

TJ Sanders from SC is also a great pick!  The kid can tackle!!  I was watching his play recaps from college and he's good.  We need that so, so bad.
