These are three defensive ends the Buffalo Bills should target in free agency this offseason.
While the wide receiver position is a priority for the Buffalo Bills on the offensive side of the ball, the defensive end position needs to be the priority for the front office for this defense. This is a position that has plenty of questions with the potential departure of Shaq Lawson and the under-whelming performance of Jerry Hughes and Trent Murphy this past season.
The front office, led by GM Brandon Beane, has not been one to break the bank in free agency. However, with nearly $90 million in available cap space this is a position that might make sense to go against that philosophy.
The Bills will have plenty of options this offseason and can elect to go with an older veteran on a short term deal or commit to a younger player on the rise with a long term deal. They could also look at some players who at one time had potential in this league but could be willing to sign a one-year, prove-it type deal.
Regardless of the direction this team takes, there is no reason the Buffalo Bills shouldn’t upgrade the defensive end position. These are three players that make sense for the Bills to target in free agency this offseason.
