‘We'll be the hunted team in the AFC East'

Here are some highlights from general manager Brandon Beane’s season-ending press conference.
‘We'll be the hunted team in the AFC East'

Q: This season was obviously a very successful one for your team. How does this season change the bar, or the expectations moving forward?

BB: Back to back seasons with the playoffs, which is good. That’s a start to what I refer to as sustained success. We won the AFC East so we’ll obviously be the hunted team in that division. I think people will refer to us, this team played in the AFC Championship. We’re gonna get people’s best, we know that. Next year is a new year though. Nothing we did will matter when we start this offseason or when we start camp. Every team’s built up with new players so we’ll have to hit the reset button. We’ve got a lot of work to do to try and get this thing going and build a team that can earn its way back to where we were and hopefully further.

Q: Josh Allen took a huge step obviously this season. What are your thoughts on potentially working on a long-term extension with him this offseason?

BB: You know I don’t get into contracts, but it’s a fair question since I’m very proud of Josh. What I would say about him is I know he’s his own worst critic. Even though he had a great year just like he did last year, he kind of led out exit meeting. He went through what he’s got to do and he knows. He’s so driven, we’ve got to get Josh to power down and just reset. But he’s gonna come back, using Sean’s words, humble and hungry. I’m very proud of him and he’s shown people what he can do in this league and I don’t think he’s reached his ceiling, I think there’s still growth for him.

Diggs was clearly amped up and ready to go as the Bills began their preparations for the new season, leading the huddle and supporting his teammates as they kicked off training camp in Orchard Park. Diggs recently touched on his goals for the upcoming season for both himself and the team in an informative discussion with members of the media. Here are the highlights from that discussion.

RUNNING BACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS

Aaron Jones, Packers 5-9 • 208 pounds • 27 years old A fifth-round steal in the 2017 draft out of UTEP, Jones is equally proficient in the running and passing games. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards the last two years, and caught 49 and 47 passes, respectively. He’s also a touchdown machine with 30 TDs the last two years (25 rushing and 5 receiving). The son of two career Army officers, he’s a tough, driven player and the kind of guy players want on their team.

QUARTERBACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS

Dak Prescott, Cowboys 6-2 • 235 pounds • 27 years old A solid starter who has a nice TD-INT ratio over his first five seasons (104-40), Prescott is an accurate thrower and very mobile. However, he’s coming off a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle, so it remains to be seen if this will impact his game moving forward.

Hunter Henry, Chargers 6-5 • 250 pounds • 29 years old A very talented player, Henry has had issues staying healthy, unable to complete an NFL season, including missing the entire 2018 season with a torn ACL. But when healthy, he’s a terrific all-around tight end who really connected with Justin Herbert in 2020 with 60 catches. Henry is very good at finding holes in zone coverage.
