QB Josh Allen

It could’ve been said there were no more excuses for Josh Allen after the Bills added wide receiver Stefon Diggs. Now we really should.

Diggs is the No. 1 but now Davis and Hodgins bring the missing size factor. Allen has plenty of guys that can go up and get the ball now, so now it’s up to him to be a bit more accurate to give them a chance to get there. On top of that, his whole offensive line is back and running back Zack Moss was added. Can’t forget Devin Singletary and Dawson Knox also hopefully making positive strides in their second seasons.

Allen’s been put in a good sitting in a few short seasons in Buffalo. Buckle up and hope for the best.

The whole offensive line

By whole, we mean whole. Starters and depth guys alike.

At the top of Buffalo’s offensive line, from left to right, we have Dion Dawkins, Quinton Spain, Mitch Morse, Jon Feliciano and Cody Ford. Spain re-signing earlier this offseason means that entire unit is back for another season. The Bills, who didn’t draft any offensive linemen, are really, really banking that the continuity here makes this group improve in 2020. They were decent a year ago and can stand to improve at least a little. Let’s see what they’ve got.

But let’s not forget about the depth guys, either. No late picks to the Bills were linemen, either. That means guys like Ty Nsekhe, Spencer Long and Daryl Williams, all versatile depth pieces, will have good looks at being kept around as backups. But they should get a chance to start, too. Sean McDermott shouldn’t guarantee any starting spots if he’s smart.
