On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by friend and recurring guest to over a list consisting of a handful of Buffalo Bills players that at least Patrick thinks are being slept on going into the 2024 season.
Players like Josh Allen and Von Miller and especially former players like Stefon Diggs Tre White and Jordan Poyer are commanding most of the offseason attention nationally and even to a certain extent, locally. Perfectly understandable, but this Bills roster is chockfull of some young talent that is likely still ascending that at least on some levels simply fly under the radar.
The guys talk about some of them, including Dawson Knox, who saw his production decline last year between a wrist injury and the emergence of rookie first-round pick Dalton Kincaid. That doesn’t mean people should be sleeping on Knox’s potential in this offense though. This is a guy who caught nearly 50 passes for over 500 yards in both 2021 and 2022 with 15 touchdowns during that span. He’s also been good in the playoffs.
Also, people tend to think of Rasul Douglas first when it comes to excellent Bills cornerbacks, but Christian Benford was (very) quietly graded by PFF among the very best corners in the NFL last season. The guys have thoughts on him as well as James Cook and a pair of still relatively young defensive ends among others.
They also acknowledge Buffalo’s tribal chief, Josh Allen on his 27th birthday, talk a little NBA hoops, play their “Finish the Sentence” segment and plenty more. Be sure to follow Anthony on Twitter @AnthMarino
