These are the grades for the key players on defense for the Buffalo Bills during the 2019 season.

While the Buffalo Bills offense saw a great deal of change last offseason, the defense was a different story as they kept most of their starters in place. This was one of the big reasons for this group finishing the year as one of the best in the NFL.

The Bills had 10 starters return with the only change being at defensive tackle with the retirement of Kyle Williams. However, the team used their first round pick on dynamic defensive tackle Ed Oliver.

This past season, the defense finished third in fewest total yards against (298.3 yards per game) and second in points (16.2). One of the big reasons was the improvement of Tre’Davious White, who made a claim as top cornerback in the league and was even named All-Pro.

These are the final season grades for the key players at each position for the Buffalo Bills in 2019.
