On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss a handful of Buffalo Bills topics, including a look at the second-year players on the roster that will undoubtedly have a big say on if the Bills 2025 campaign is a success.
Last year's Bills rookie class was a mixed bag at best. Truthfully speaking I think the organization expected bigger contributions as a whole from their rookies. That's not to say they didn't sometimes have a positive impact on the team, it just didn't feel like it happened often enough. The guys dive into several of the players the team will count on for more consistent efforts, a list that starts with Keon Coleman and Cole Bishop and goes on down to complimentary players like Ray Davis, Dewayne Carter, Javon Solomon and Joe Andreessen.
Also, it feels like a few times per year a Tyler Dunne masterfully crafted Bills feature story is discussed on this show. Today's one of those days and the guys react to an awesome story Tyler dropped on Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid earlier this week. Dunne wrote about a Bills veteran who's poignant words got him to "own" the play he didn't make the AFC championship game and fuel his desire to have the breakout season many are hoping for if not expecting this season. That plus is Josh Allen already the greatest Buffalo Bills of all-time and more.
