No NFL team has done more in the NFL free agency’s tampering period than the New England Patriots.
The Buffalo Bills’ AFC East rivals have made marquee signings in the first 24 hours since teams have been allowed to talk to pending free agents from other teams. Some of those include linebacker Matthew Judon along with tight ends Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith.

That’s because it was never Buffalo’s goal to do so. The Bills wanted to keep their own guys and they mostly did.
We’re still a long ways away from NFL rosters being finalized for the 2021 season… but in a way-too-early future projection, ESPN says that the Pats still haven’t closed the gap on the Bills.
During a roundtable discussion on the morning program Get Up, analysts Dan Graziano, David Pollack, Ryan Clark and Damien Woody all still selected the Bills as their AFC East favorite next season. Woody, a former Patriots offensive lineman, even went a step further. He picked them as his early-offseason favorite to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl.
A big reason for all of their answers? Bills quarterback Josh Allen.
