‘He put up modest numbers during his years as a Jet before being traded to the Browns in the spring of 2023. His most productive year from a receiving-yards standpoint came with Cleveland in ’23; he reeled in 59 catches for 640 yards as the Browns made the playoffs.’

Bills sign former Browns wide receiver to $5 million deal
‘Moore will likely end up as a surprise to many Bills fans that don’t see the signing as a big deal. If you compare his numbers to every Bills’ wide receiver from last year, he is second in receptions behind only Khalil Shakir. While Buffalo will likely start the year with Josh Palmer and Keon Coleman as their top two boundary receivers, don’t be shocked if he ends up taking reps from both players.’
Bills agree to terms with wide receiver Elijah Moore
‘Moore, 25, spent the past two seasons with the Cleveland Browns totaling 120 catches, including 61 last season. Moore was originally a second round pick of the New York Jets in 2021, but was traded to Cleveland following the completion of his second season.’
2025 Bills draft recap: Jordan Hancock
‘The 6’0″, 195 pound Hancock emerged as a key defender in his nickel cornerback role in 2023. He could have declared for the draft after that season but opted to return for his senior year. It turned out to be a good decision as the Buckeyes would go on to win the national championship and Hancock would earn Honorable Mention All Big Ten status.’
2025 Bills draft recap: Deone Walker
‘Well respected by his teammates, which included Bills first round pick Maxwell Hairston, Walker was twice named a team captain. He told reporters he models his game after longtime NFL defensive lineman Calais Campbell since they are similar in height.’
Buffalo Bills sign free agent wide receiver Elijah Moore
‘The 25-year-old is coming off back-to-back 100+ target seasons with the Cleveland Browns. He brings speed and a wide range of versatility into the Bills’ receiver room.’
Bills coach Sean McDermott teams up with Wegmans, FeedMore for allergen-friendly food drive
‘“We’ve experienced now firsthand having to use the EpiPen when foods that my daughter is allergic to have been consumed,” McDermott told the Bills website in 2021. “And it’s not fun, I can promise you that.”’

Roundtable: Our Bills writers share which draft picks they liked – and which ones they didn't
‘Least favorite pick: Taking a 330-pounder with back trouble is not my favorite idea, but that’s what the Bills did in the fourth round – trading up to do so, no less. Kentucky defensive tackle Deone Walker earned first-round grades from some scouts after his 2023 sophomore season, but he slipped to the fourth round partly because of his back injury – specifically, a fracture between two vertebrae in his spine – that greatly impacted his production in 2024. Walker gives the Bills a big body in the middle of the defense, but he actually didn’t play much one-technique defensive tackle last season. There is a lot of projection here – both that he will get healthy and then develop into the run-stuffer the defense needs.’
AFC draft grades: Like Buffalo Bills, Kansas City addresses specific needs in rounds 1-3
‘Until they dethrone the Kansas City Chiefs – or even after they do – the Buffalo Bills should be keeping one eye on the goings on with Chiefs general manager Brett Veach and coach Andy Reid. Who did the Chiefs sign? Who did the Chiefs cut? And, last weekend, who did the Chiefs draft?’
Bills focus on defense in draft, rebuild line
‘The defense has fallen short in the postseason, notably against the Kansas City Chiefs, multiple times in the last several years. In the five regular-season games quarterback Patrick Mahomes has played against the Bills, Buffalo has held the Chiefs offense to an average of 20.8 points and 370 yards. That increases to 34.8 points and 430 yards in four playoff games. The Chiefs have two rushing plays of 20-plus yards in the regular season meetings against the Bills and eight in the playoffs.’
Despite what Brandon Beane thinks, the Buffalo Bills need a star wide receiver
‘So while the defense was rightfully the focus in the draft, that doesn’t make the need for a top receiver any less important. The Bills currently have a total of zero receivers who have ever had a 1,000 yard season. Since 2006, only five teams have won the Super Bowl without having a 1,000 yard receiver…’.
Brandon Beane likens Buffalo Bills offense to Patriots dynasty
‘”Look at Tom Brady,” Beane said. “Look at New England – how many great historic receivers did they have on their Super Bowl teams? But the Patriots, they were good up front, they had a good quarterback, they usually had some type of run game, whether it was Corey Dillon or [Kevin] Faulk… there’s 100 different ways you can build [a good offense]. We’re not against good receivers… but when you’re paying Josh Allen what you’re paying him, you’ve got to make some concessions somewhere else.”‘
Bills draft profile: T.J. Sanders
‘At 6’4″ and 300 pounds, Sanders is not the prototypical run stuffing defensive tackle that many Bills fans were hoping for. But he does have the sought after long arms, measuring at 33 5/8 inches.’
Bills draft profile: Landon Jackson
‘He is very athletic and he is long, with 33 3/4 inch arms. Those are two attributes the Bills value in their defensive linemen.’

Brandon Beane defends Bills' approach to wide receivers: 'You can't have everything'
‘“Well, you guys were (bleeping) in 2018 about Josh Allen – you guys wanted Josh Rosen – and now you guys are (bleeping) that we don’t have a receiver,” Beane said. “I don’t get it.”’
