12 takeaways from Sean McDermott, Brandon Beane free agency presser

Takeaways from Buffalo Bills Sean McDermott, Brandon Beane during free agency.

Getting Star Lotulelei back

As expected, the Bills are excited to have Star Lotulelei back… and because of that, expect to see him out there a lot on first down, stuffing the run in 2021.

Or trying to since the Bills couldn’t do that very well without him.

“The size, the early down ability to factor in at the line of scrimmage,” McDermott said.

Cornerback battle

Beane said Levi Wallace, who re-signed with the Bills on Wednesday, and 2020 seventh-round rookie Dane Jackson, will battle it out for the No. 2 cornerback job. The GM added that “we’re very content” with those two.

Gronk confirmed

Rob Gronkowski, before he re-signed with the Bucs, got a call from the Bills. But that’s about it.

“We spoke to his representatives,” Beane said. “We never made an official offer.”

“I think there was some interest,” the GM added.

Doesn’t sound like it was very close at all.
