Here are some highlights from a recent zoom call with Bills head coach Sean McDermott’s and the local media.
‘It was a draft we'll never forget'
With Zoom calls and family help, Bills find a way
ROUND FIVE - Jake Fromm • QB • Georgia
Brandon Beane did not go into the draft expecting to select a quarterback for the Bills.
‘You knew he was going to be really good'
For more on Buffalo’s top pick, Bills Digest recently caught up with Iowa defensive line coach Kelvin Bell. Bell helped groom A.J. Epenesa to become one of the most productive defensive ends in the country by the end of Epenesa’s time with the Hawkeyes.
ROUND TWO - A.J. Epenesa • DE • Iowa
A.J. Epenesa’s first sack as a member of the Iowa Hawkeyes was beautifully violent.
ROUND THREE - Zack Moss • RB • Utah
When Brandon Beane decides to make a move in the draft, he’s usually extra aggressive in an effort to get the job done. That’s what made the wait for running back Zack Moss so difficult.
ROUND FOUR - Gabriel Davis • WR • Central Florida
Over the past two years, the Bills have gone from having one of the worst receiving groups in the league to one of the best. But that didn’t mean they would stay away from one of the deepest receiver classes in draft history.
On paper, Beane hits another home run
Just like every single aspect of the world these days, the 2020 NFL Draft was anything but normal.
Bills given prime-time boost
Due to the coronavirus, it’s far too early to know if the upcoming NFL season will go according to plan. As it currently sits, however, the Bills are set to get their time in the spotlight.
‘Turn that pain into growth'
Here are some highlights from head coach Sean McDermott’s season-ending press conference.
Week 17: N.Y. Jets 13, Buffalo 6
Sam Darnold’s late touchdown pass to Jamison Crowder essentially sealed the win for the Jets.
Week 16: New England 24, Buffalo 17
The Bills once again came close against the Patriots but were unable to get the job done.
The finish doesn't erase the progress
Less than 24 hours after the Buffalo Bills’ 2019 season came to an end, Josh Allen — battered, bruised, and walking with a noticeable limp — made his way to the podium inside the fieldhouse one more time.
