NFL draft preview: OTs will be there for taking in first round
‘It’s possible the Bills, who don’t have a first-round choice, could use a second-round pick on an offensive tackle. However, that doesn’t seem likely, given that they used a second-round choice last year on Cody Ford from Oklahoma. Ford had some rough patches as a rookie starter at right tackle, but the Bills want to keep him there. Their re-signing of right guard Quinton Spain make that a given, so most of the Bills’ O-line focus this offseason has been driven by improving depth.’

Allen’s the best quarterback in the division, in the best situation, and stocked with the most playmakers and a competent offensive line. The Bills re-signed Quinton Spain on the interior and added former second team All Pro tackle (2017) Daryl Williams. That line should be even better than it was last season.’

Levi Wallace asks those needing ‘a comforting voice’ to call him
‘“I was encouraged Sunday with hearing a sermon that I heard about just trying to be an encourager to the people who need it,” Wallace said. “He’s just saying, ‘Everyone’s a minister; you take responsibility.’ I just want to be able to pray for others and check in on people and make sure everyone’s good and healthy. And if they had any football questions, I’d answer, but it really wasn’t about football. It was just me trying to find my way and do the Lord’s work and just check in on the people out there.”’
