The next player on this list is running back Zack Moss, who is entering his second season with the Buffalo Bills and in the NFL. In his rookie season, Moss showed some good things but also showed there is room for improvement.

The run game is something that the coaching staff hopes to improve but has stated it won’t be about balance but efficiency. When considering the rushing attempts are likely to be limited as the Bills remain a pass-heavy offense, Moss is going to have to get off to a fast start to try and claim the top spot on the depth chart and prove he can be the featured back for this team.

One of the biggest questions that Moss will need to answer in the first week of training camp is where he is in terms of recovering from the ankle injury suffered in the playoffs. Last month, McDermott said Moss was on track to be ready for training camp after ankle surgery. If Moss is able to practice without limitations, it will be a big help as he tries to move up the depth chart.
