On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran goes over his biggest winners and losers on the heels of the Buffalo Bills opening the preseason with a 23-19 victory over the Indianapolis Colts this weekend at Highmark Stadium.There was plenty to like about Buffalo on Saturday, including James Cook looking electric in his brief time on the field, a trio of unheralded wide receivers trying to make a name for themselves, a pair of offensive lineman showing some promise and of course, Matt Barkley playing himself directly into a QB2 competition.On the opposite side, Kyle Allen continues to struggle badly this summer, a linebacker has completely out of any starting competition, Kaiir Elam doesn't really take advantage of an opportunity and Khalil Shaker showed why he's capable of making great plays but equally prone to unforced mistakes.That and plenty more today.♦♦♦♦♦Follow Patrick Moran/Talking Buffalo Podcast Substack: Patrick Moran’s SubstackTwitter: @PatMoranTweets.Facebook: Talking Buffalo Podcast YouTube: Talking Buffalo Podcast YouTube Channel Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Aaron Quinn (Cover 1) for the fourth of six weekly Buffalo Bills seven-round mock drafts leading up to the real thing beginning April 27th. Unlike the first three mocks, there's actually trades today. In fact, there's multiple trades that not involves picks but a veteran player.In this mock the Bills explore moving up options before deciding against it. When going on the clock at 27, the Indianapolis Colts come with an offer appealing enough for Buffalo to move down eight spots before making their first selection. From there the Bills are offered and accept a trade from a conference rival that essentially nets them a solid veteran receiver in exchange for a fourth-round pick.The Bills only end up making four picks with this draft, three who'll actually be expected to contribute in 2023--but there's far more to this story than just that.You can follow Aaron on Twitter @AaronQuinn716 and be sure to check out the Cover 1 Buffalo Podcast♦♦♦♦♦Follow Patrick Moran/Talking Buffalo Podcast Substack: Patrick Moran’s SubstackTwitter: @PatMoranTweets.Facebook: Talking Buffalo Podcast YouTube: Talking Buffalo Podcast YouTube Channel Learn more about your ad choices.
