The Editorial Board: Buffalo is ready for its closeup – hosting the NFL draft
‘The economic benefit is obvious. Western Pennsylvania gained an estimated $120 million to $213 million in revenue when Pittsburgh hosted the event this year. Anywhere from 300,000 to 700,000 fans would travel to Buffalo, occupying most of the city’s hotel rooms and patronizing local businesses. Event spaces would be booked each night, with NFL-sanctioned or non-sanctioned hospitality events.’
Bills land 3 of ESPN’s best 100 picks in 2026 NFL Draft

The Bills are diving head-first into roster versatility in the first offseason post-Sean McDermott

Hall of Famer ‘vouches’ for former Alabama linebacker
‘“I vouch for him every year,” Thomas said on Sunday. “People want to talk about sacks. If we had wanted him to get sacks, he would have gotten 10 or more sacks a year.

And he played for — what? — 13, 14 years at a high level, at a very high level, and was a big part of us going to those four Super Bowls.’

Move over ‘Bleacher Creatures’, Bills Mafia overtaking you
‘When Collectible Exchange was hired to remove seats and other items from “Old” Yankee Stadium in 2009, it was able to recover 20,000 pieces of memorabilia. Much of which was then put on sale and some items remain unsold 17 years later. But, that is not the case with “Old” Highmark Stadium, where Collectible Exchange was able to garner more than 25,000 items, with most sold or under contract to be sold. The Bills Mafia response has set a new benchmark for the harvesting and sale of items from sports venues. To date, they have beat the Yankees’ ‘Bleacher Creatures’ by 25% – and counting. “The love the Bills Mafia has for anything connected to the team is second to none,” said Brandon Steiner, Collectible Exchange CEO. “I knew they were loyal, but not to this extent. It is beyond anything I have seen.”
