Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane used NFL Meetings to outline roster updates (Josh Allen's ongoing foot recovery, Dalton Kincaid's fifth-year option, Dorian Strong's neck surgery), discuss a tentative Bills–Browns joint practice, and weigh how an 18-game schedule could affect rosters while highlighting the DJ Moore trade and newer signings that could influence receiver depth and interior line competition.

Vikings land Bills' restricted-free-agent tackle Van Demark on 1-year deal

Buffalo did not match Minnesota's offer sheet for 27-year-old tackle Ryan Van Demark, who signs with the Vikings on a one-year, $4.2 million fully guaranteed deal. The 6-foot-6 swing tackle adds depth behind Darrisaw and O'Neill, likely pushing Walter Rouse down the depth chart and potentially freeing Blake Brandel to focus on center duties after Ryan Kelly's retirement.

Vikings Strike for Bills OT Van Demark With One-Year Offer Sheet

The Minnesota Vikings signed Bills restricted free agent Ryan Van Demark to a one-year offer sheet worth about $4.3 million, with Buffalo having five days to match. The Bills’ original-round tender was $3.52 million; if Buffalo declines to match, they receive no compensation. Van Demark, who turns 28 this month, played 17 games last season (154 snaps at right tackle, 43 at left) and would be a swing tackle behind left tackle Christian Darrisaw and right tackle Brian O’Neill in Minnesota, where he would back up both spots.

Bills add DJ Moore to bolster Josh Allen’s receiving corps

The Bills are acquiring wide receiver DJ Moore from the Bears for a 2026 second-round pick and a 2026 fifth-round pick, with the deal set to finalize when the new league year opens on March 11. Moore will join Khalil Shakir and tight ends Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox, reuniting with former Panthers coach Joe Brady, and gives Josh Allen a proven target after Moore posted 1,100+ receiving yards in 2020-21. Moore is under contract through 2029 and is due $23.5 million in 2026.

Moore Deal Reframes A.J. Brown’s Eagles Prospects

As free agency approaches, the Eagles’ hopes of moving A.J. Brown hinge on the evolving WR market and potential AFC trade partners; Buffalo, New England, and Baltimore have been named, but D.J. Moore’s trade to the Bills chips away at one option for Brown and could boost Philadelphia’s asking price. New England’s connection endures, aided by Vrabel’s praise for Brown, while Ravens chatter has been scarce. Philly plans to decide Brown’s 2026 status within a week as it weighs the market.

Cover 6 Edge: Seahawks Could Exploit Maye's Struggles

Analyst Warren Sharp highlights Drake Maye's struggles against Cover 6, noting -0.34 EPA per attempt, about 23% success, 4.3 yards per attempt and roughly 64% completion in Cover 6 scenarios, with an interception in one instance. The Bills leaned into Cover 6 in key late-season games against the Patriots, suggesting a real trend that Seattle—also a heavy Cover 6 user with its own flavor—could try to exploit, though Seattle's variation and other factors keep the outcome uncertain.

The Buffalo Bills elevated offensive coordinator Joe Brady to head coach, replacing Sean McDermott.

Bills Faithful Rally as Petition to Reinstate McDermott Surpasses 62,000 Signatures

A Buffalo Bills fan launched a Change.org petition on Jan. 19 to reinstate fired head coach Sean McDermott, which had gathered about 62,395 signatures by Friday evening.

Owner Terry Pegula and GM Brandon Beane framed the decision as addressing a persistent playoff wall, while fans and former players have publicly wished McDermott well and some advocate for his return.
