‘Given the lower salary cap projections for 2021 across the league, it’s hard to tell exactly what Milano‘s market value will be. However, the website Spotrac calculated that to be close to a $14 million per-year contract.’

Opinion: Filling the void
‘Very few people saw what happened coming.’
Opinion: 2021 State of the Bills: Defensive end
‘As for those under contract, Mario Addison is probably the biggest question mark headed into this offseason, as far as whether or not the team keeps him on the roster.’
Opinion: Ryan Fitzpatrick should be Bills’ backup quarterback
‘Fitzpatrick would be a wild ride as a backup. If he had to enter a game that mattered, I’d want to assume it wouldn’t go well, while not ruling out Fitzpatrick carrying the team on his back to a win.’
Opinion: 2021 State of the Bills: Defensive tackle
‘Defensive tackle is the only position group on the entire Buffalo Bills roster that does not have a pending free agent. Seven different players are under contract already for 2021, including five regulars from this past season – Ed Oliver, Quinton Jefferson, Harrison Phillips, Vernon Butler, and Justin Zimmer.’
Opinion: So about the Bills and that gap…
‘Maybe all the usual “learning to win” filler should apply. The Bills played about their two worst games of the year against the Chiefs, and there could be psychological reasons for that to go with the tactical ones. We don’t know.’
Opinion: 2021 State of the Bills: Offensive line
‘Sure, there could very well be multiple returners along the line, but as of right now, the only thing that’s certain is Dawkins is the starting left tackle in 2021.’
Opinion: 2021 State of the Bills: Wide receiver
‘Things are a lot more fuzzy when it comes to Brown, mainly due to his contract and injury concerns.’
Opinion: Bills definitely made fans shout in 2020
‘As far as the Bills are concerned, if you were around back then, it probably reminded you of 1988 when you could tell the Bills had put together a special team. There was an AFC East championship and a trip to the AFC Championship Game. Even though 1989 was a step back, your gut instincts proved to be correct by what happened in the early 1990s.’
Hasselbeck: Bills shouldn’t necessarily ‘be worried about the AFC East’ in 2021
‘”I just think the stability of the quarterback in the division is Josh Allen, and if I was Josh Allen and the Bills, I wouldn’t necessarily be worried about the AFC East. I’d just be worried about the AFC. I think that’s how big the difference is in teams right now.”‘
Opinion: 2021 State of the Bills: Tight end
‘The Bills are trying to contend for a Super Bowl right now, and don’t want to wait a couple more years for a tight end to develop. That’s why free agency may be the route they have to go this offseason to try and get better at the position.’
Opinion: A different draft
‘If the Bills want to run the ball more effectively, and we know they do, finding a mix of five men up-front that can have more success in the run game would be important. This Bills team struggled to run the ball all that effectively this season.’
Opinion: 2021 State of the Bills: Running Back
‘T.J. Yeldon will be a free agent. He’s actually the exact type of running back they need going forward, but someone who’s younger and more dynamic.’
Opinion: Mitch Trubisky should be Bills’ backup quarterback
‘Trubisky gives the Bills one big upgrade over Barkley – mobility.’
Opinion: 2021 State of the Bills: Quarterback
‘The biggest question at the quarterback position facing the Bills this offseason is whether or not to pay Josh Allen now, or wait another year.’
