The Buffalo Bills started camp and the competitions are underway. All that and more in today’s edition of The Morning Charge.

It is nice to start a week knowing the Buffalo Bills are in the midst of training camp. The first preseason game is next week, if you can believe that.

Things are still somewhat slow in the news, unless you live and die with every pass in camp, meaning we are still seeking out some other stories in the realm of NFL news.

One of those stories involves the 2019 mock drafts that are already coming out, while another involves the slim hopes that the Bills could be a perfect match for Dez Bryant. His destination remains unknown but it is interesting to consider the possibility of him in Buffalo.

Now that the team is entering a full week of camp we should continue to hear more about how the quarterback competition is shaking up. Even still, we won’t see any legitimate separation until a preseason game is played.

In exciting football news, there is a preseason game this Thursday! The Bears and the Ravens are squaring off in the Hall of Fame Game, officially signaling the start of somewhat competitive football in 2018.

We take a look at all this and more in today’s Morning Charge.
