Whether the Buffalo Bills fall short in the playoffs again or raise the Lombardi Trophy in Santa Clara, there have to be some significant changes on the roster in the offseason. For as strong as Buffalo has shown to be this season, they heavily struggled at times where it seemed easy to not to struggle.
The biggest eye sore has been the production from the wide receivers. They don’t have a true No. 1 wideout for Josh Allen, so a lot of people believe that the Bills will make that a main priority to fix this offseason.
Another priority that Buffalo will have to address is getting a boost in their pass-rush, as both Joey Bosa and A.J. Epenesa are pending free agents after this season. Unless the Bills decide to bring back one or the other, Buffalo will also have to address that position.
Bills may have big time opportunity to land five-time Pro Bowler this offseason
Well, a recent report from Senior NFL insider Dianna Russini from The Atheltic may give the Bills an opportunity to take care of bringing in a ferocious pass rusher. According to Russini, “leagues sources believe the Raiders would be open to moving Maxx Crosby this offseason.”
Russini mentioned that the relationship between Crosby and the Raiders has been “strained” after Crosby was shut down for the season.

This should be a no-brainer thought for the Bills. At the very least, they should call the Raiders and inquire about Crosby. Buffalo has had an inconsistent pass rush for many seasons and if they can land Crosby, they would automatically land their defensive version of Josh Allen.
Now, with a player like Crosby, it’s going to cost any team a huge price. Since Crosby is a star, it would have to take a star package for the Raiders to move him.
The starting price could easy be two 1st-round picks, but since the Bills are set up to pick in the later part of the first round, it would make sense to bring in an automatic star who could help the Bills get over the hump rather than develop young guys while Josh Allen is in the middle of his prime.
The offseason could be a thriller once again and if Crosby does indeed get moved, no matter where to, it’s going to be a huge and impactful move that will strengthen another team and badly hurt the Raiders.
