'I was always put in the back seat': New Cowboys CB Kaiir Elam confident he'll succeed after trade from Bills
‘”Coming in to Buffalo, I was a kid that just wanted to improve and learn and really show off my talents. But I was always put in the back seat,” Elam said on a conference call Monday. “So I continued to put my head down and work, and [I] continued to make plays throughout the season and in the playoffs and stuff like that. This time around [in 2024], I got less and less opportunities. I just took everything I learned from there and all the baggage and the improvements I felt like I needed to make and just packaged it up and worked on it every day. So I don’t really see it as a negative. I really just see it as a growing opportunity for me to go shine somewhere else.”‘

Buffalo Bills Community Benefits Oversight Committee calls for more transparency, seeking to rebuild public opinion
‘Reverend Mark Blue, chairman of the committee, reflected on the recent challenges and acknowledged that communication could have been handled more effectively. “We need to communicate, communicate, communicate, and sometimes a message sent isn’t the best received,” Blue said. “The Bills were well within their rights to speak about that statement because that’s in the Community Benefits Agreement, but it’s just how it was served up.”’

‘”We’re running tight with knowing you have to save money for the draft picks,” Beane explained. “I think I’ve talked to you guys about it before, even if you’re under on this top 51, we’ve had to do moves in the past at the 53 cut when you have to include everyone–practice squad, whoever’s gone on IR, injury replacement cost, all that. So, we’re getting thin. We’ve changed stores that we’re shopping in.”‘

New addition Joshua Palmer brings separation ability to Bills' WR corps
‘“I take a lot of pride in being able to run the entire route tree,” the 25-year-old Palmer said. “Being able to be outside and inside, the ability to stop, the ability to go deep, the ability to win in different situations.’
Analysis: Brandon Beane taking a big risk by signing two suspended players
‘The media room inside the Bills’ fieldhouse has seen the scene for several peculiar press conferences over the years, but Beane’s announcement Friday that both Hoecht and Ogunjobi would be sidelined for six games immediately moves way up the list of “is this really happening?” moments. Usually, when a general manager steps up to the microphone to talk about his free-agent class, he’s all smiles. Beane’s tone and demeanor were far from that Friday – for good reason.’
Bills moving forward with suspended DT signing seems like a questionable decision
‘No, it’s not, and the situation has put the Bills in a challenging spot because the No. 1 area Beane needed to upgrade was the defensive line. In that effort, he has done so with a former superstar in Joey Bosa who has struggled to stay healthy for half of his nine-year career, and two players who won’t be able to play until Buffalo’s seventh game.’
How does Josh Allen getting paid affect the rest of the Bills?
‘Allen’s cap number actually didn’t end up changing drastically for 2025 but was reduced from $44.7 million in cap space to $41.4 million. It could only be so much lower as Allen had $28.7 million in prorated bonuses from other years in 2025. Until 2028, Allen’s cap numbers are pretty similar to what they were on his previous deal. The Bills have made a variety of moves in free agency, including signing defensive end Joey Bosa, defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi, wide receiver Joshua Palmer and defensive end Michael Hoecht.’
