Season Outlook

With the addition of Stefon Diggs and Zach Moss, the Bills have gotten a huge boost. The biggest question mark is at the QB position. Josh Allen has yet to complete 60% more of his passes in a season or throw over 3,100 yards in a season. The biggest redeeming quality is his ability to win close games. He has led 8 game winning drives in his short career. Bill Polian has mentioned that this is the best tell of a QB in his ability to win in the clutch and Allen has this down to a tee. But the Bills need to make a deep playoff run to capitalize his cheap rookie deal.

The best part of the upcoming season is the rest of the division is all up in the air. The Dolphins and Jets are on the rebuild and the Patriots are reeling from the loss of Tom Brady. This is the year for the Bills to make a push and they have the pieces to do it.

Win Total

DraftKings has the Bills slated to win 8.5 games on the year and I really like the over. The division is fairly easy and the team that won 10 games last year has not changed all that much. The addition of the the rookies certainly makes up for the loss of key free agents.

Fantasy Player to Watch

Last year, my man was Josh Allen. But unfortunately, the cat is out of the bag. He was a top 12 QB last year and likely won’t be around in the later rounds when I prefer to take quarterbacks. BUT there is another player with incredible value at the most important position in fantasy football, Zack Moss. It was announced that he would be taking some reps in the passing game, only adding to his value. Additionally, it is assumed he will take goal line reps, which increases his draftability. He is currently ranked as RB40 and will be available in the 10th or 11th round. He has an outside shot to be an RB2, but at the very least Moss will work his way into being a spot starter in the flex.
