‘A third round pick out of Northern Iowa in 2021, Brown is coming off his best season as a Bill. In 2023, he started all 17 games at right tackle on an offensive line that stood out as a unit, allowing the fewest amount of sacks in the NFL (24).’

Carucci Take 2: Bills’ many questions will start being answered vs. Cardinals
‘Our eyes are naturally going to first go to the revamped receiving corps. Will a dynamic playmaker emerge from a group that no longer has Stefon Diggs, one of the more dynamic playmakers to wear a Bills uniform in recent years? I didn’t see anything in the preseason to indicate we’re going to see that guy or those guys Sunday.’

‘”It’s one thing to get drafted, it’s another thing to get to a second contract,” Brown said. “There’s a lot of stepping stones and learning, you have to go through that, especially in younger years, and then just doing the same thing, day in, day out, and hopefully it pays off, and you’re doing the right things.”‘

As Bills contract winds down, Delaware North isn't playing out the string
‘“Since the announcement of that contract, nothing has changed at Highmark Stadium,” he said. “We keep doing what we’re doing and what we’re known globally for doing.

Josh Allen's new chapter: In seventh season, even more pressure to carry Buffalo Bills
‘Diggs’ departure may be liberating for Allen, who admitted he emphasized getting Diggs targets early in a game. It has been on Allen since mid-April to on-board his new teammates to the Bills’ way and his way. Post-practice throwing sessions. Extra time in the meeting room. A throwing/bonding trip to Nashville, Tennessee. And during camp, Allen would often deliberate with skill-position players or McGovern in between periods.’
The Bills lost 6 of their 8 captains from last year. Where will the leadership come from?
‘“The first thing is credibility. If you’re not a credible person who is trying to lead, no one is going to follow you. I think we’re seeing leadership traits in a lot of guys that were probably there already, but we had a lot of guys who had kind of already established themselves in that role, right?”’
Is the Bills' roster strong enough? Mark Gaughan breaks down the team, position by position
‘Is it asking too much for Coleman to match Davis’ 2023 numbers (45-746-7) as a rookie? Can Samuel be more than a possession receiver? (He was for Brady in Carolina in 2020). Expectations are low for MVS since he eked out 21 catches with Kansas City. Can anyone besides Shakir win against good man coverage? If any of the top three get hurt, are any of the others reliable?’
The Buffalo Bills' offense is now Joe Brady's offense. What will it look like? Here's our analysis
‘“The No. 1 thing is, you want to have an efficient run game,” Bills offensive line coach Aaron Kromer said. “And we were the No. 1 efficient run game in the NFL. So you consistently can move the chains. That’s what we’re trying to do, consistently move the chains. If we make 10 yards, great, but we have to get 4. And with the combination of Josh’s ability to throw, run and control the offense, and James Cook and this offensive line and the receivers doing a good job blocking − that is the essence of winning consistently.”’
