Buffalo Bills: 5 Best Fantasy Picks For Your Team

"With the arrival of a coach like Rex Ryan in Buffalo, everything changes. Ryan injects swagger and confidence into every team he coaches, not to mention a complex defense. To keep that defense well-rested, Buffalo traded for Lesean McCoy in the offseason. Adding to an already competent offense, Buffalo is a few pieces away from being a serious contender."

Buffalo Bills position preview: Defensive line

"As the Bills work through training camp, and prepare for a highly anticipated 2015 season, there has been added attention on the defensive line. Since head coach Rex Ryan took over for Doug Marrone, he has made it clear that the Bills will have a downright scary defense in 2015. Finishing the 2014 season No.4 in the league, Buffalo’s defense is poised to lead the rankings. Last season marked Buffalo’s first winning record since 2004, and is due in large to the defensive line. Ryan has a reputation for building dangerous defenses and has inherited one in Buffalo. With the first glimpses of the unit coming from training camp, the defensive line is one Buffalo’s core strengths."

Buffalo Bills position preview: Running backs

"The Buffalo Bills completed the team’s third day of training camp today. Expectations are on the rise for the 2015 season, as reviews from training camp are overwhelmingly positive. Buffalo’s owners and staff, including head coach Rex Ryan, expressed praise for the squad’s efforts so far. Going into training camp there were several needs to address. Although one of the looming questions surrounds the quarterback position, others have wondered how Buffalo will approach its revamped run game. Reports indicate, newly acquired, running back LeSean McCoy has been an asset on the training field. But, where does that leave the rest of the position group?"

For Bills‘ Jackson, it’s a case of challenge accepted

"Once practice is over, Fred Jackson removes his shoulder pads and walks through the tunnel at St. John Fisher College to one booming roar.“Fred-dee! Fred-dee! Fred-dee!”Rolls of tape snake up his ankles like armor. His white cut-off is doused in sweat. His biceps are massive. His forehead, covered in beads of sweat. Surrounded by his children, in pink No. 22 jerseys, Jackson signs autographs for fans one by one."

Manuel searching for consistency

"In a perfect world, EJ Manuel would win the Bills’ QB job. He’s the former first round pick, who’s still early enough in his career to grow into the position.Early in camp, though, Manuel has failed to put it all together. He misfired on multiple throws Sunday morning, showing some of the same accuracy issues that have plagued him early in his NFL career. In a word, Manuel is striving for consistency."
