It's another edition of The Podbag on today's Talking Buffalo as Patrick Moran is answering questions, comments and takes from listeners on a variety of subjects, including an explanation on why Buffalo Bills wide receiver may be the biggest mystery when it comes to this 2025 roster.Samuel was a big(ish) ticket free agent signee last year that didn't work out. He caught just 31 passes for 253 yards during the regular season, though two of his six catches in the playoffs did go for touchdowns. Brandon Beane signed Elijah Moore recently and he's looked impressive in workouts since joining the team. In Patrick's eyes that's setting up to be arguably the biggest battle of training camp, as there's only room for one of them to be in the receiving group's top four if everyone stays healthy. Samuel has the ability to make an impact on the team this year that he didn't in 2024 but at the same token, could also become someone Beane looks to trade or at the very least, nothing more than insurance as long as the unit stays healthy.Also, Patrick's asked what veterans may have the hardest time earning and/or keeping their jobs at training camp and Patrick puts that spotlight on a handful of defensive backs after Buffalo used three draft picks on the secondary.There's also a few comments regarding the Sabres and with this now officially being offseason, the annual time of hope. That plus Patrick defends Florida sports fans---sort of, is asked for a specific type of restaurant recommendation, explains a few things from his home studio and much more.The Talking Buffalo online merch store is now live!

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss a handful of Buffalo Bills and NFL topics, including a list of the biggest surprises that've happened with the Bills this offseason as training camp's now just a handful of weeks away.How things play out obviously remains to be seen but one thing's for certain when it comes to the Bills---it's been an eventful offseason. The guys talk about some of the more surprising things we've seen in depth, including the James Cook contract situation becoming a very public hot topic, not having any real interest in retaining popular receiver Mack Hollins, Brandon Beane signing four significant veterans to long term extensions before free agency even began, the Bills being named as the subject for HBO's Hard Knocks this summer and Beane taking a big swing on a one-year deal for defensive edge rusher Joey Bosa, who's already got a calf injury while training.Also, the Bosa injury and other factors could make this a very important season for veteran edge rusher AJ Epenesa. The guys discuss why and if we should realistically expect anything more from Epenesa than we have in the past.That plus is there any chance that a Buffalo return Von Miller could be in the cards and much more.You can follow Matt on Twitter @MattRichWarren and be sure to check out Buffalo Rumblingsfor your (really good) daily Bills content.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

7:30AM Hour 1 Jeremy White and Joe DiBiase discuss the expectations for the Bills this year, and whether the team could move on from their head coach or general manager. They debate whether they are a package deal, or if one could go before the other.
8-9am Hour 3: Jeremy and Joe look at the last big splash move that Beane has made since the Von Miller signing and will they make another splash move.
You nailed it.You found a star at the most important position in sports: Quarterback.Now, what? That's the question Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane has been wrestling with since correcting choosing Josh Allen over Josh Rosen. This spring, he pumped a slew of defensive resources into the roster. As we write this week, the plan can work. There's logic to follow. Not only can we look back at the Philadelphia Eagles' boa-constriction of a Super Bowl win in February — the playoff runs of Hall of Fame Super Bowl champs past supply plenty of clues. Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers all needed a boost. We discuss on this week's Substack Live video.To join future shows, download the app here.Also: Go Long subscribers can access our aforementioned 1 on 1 with Beane here. This is a public episode.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss several topics, including going through a few potential darkhorse trade candidates for the Buffalo Bills.You can't expect Bills general manager Brandon Beane to trade a veteran(s) from his roster before the season starts but it wouldn't exactly be shocking if he made a move either. The guys come up with a few candidates Beane could move on from, including Joe making a case for it to be wide receiver Curtis Samuel while Patrick thinks the most likely candidate would be defensive end AJ Epenesa.Also, with the NFL schedule now fully set with dates and times, Joe goes through the Bills road slate and ranks the road trips he'd like to take to see the team play from least to most desirable. Cost, ease of travel, opponent, city itself and time of year are all factors.Former Bills safety Jordan Poyer recently said on a TV interview that returning to Buffalo and retiring as a Bill would be a "fantasy ending" to his career. Do the guys think it's a realistic possibility? They also respond to Poyer throwing a decent amount of shade at the 2024 Dolphins.The Knicks beating Boston in the NBA playoffs and New York City going crazy is also discussed. That plus a Mt.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, it's another edition of The Podbag as Patrick Moran is responding to comments, takes and questions submitted by listeners covering several topics, including an incredibly high ceiling projection for Buffalo Bills safety Cole Bishop going into his second season.It's no secret Brandon Beane and the Buffalo staff were extremely thrilled to land Bishop in the second round of the draft last year. Unfortunately for everyone Bishop's rookie season didn't go as hoped. He got injured in training camp during the summer to take him out of a three-way competition to start at safety and seemed to play catchup for a lot of the season after returning, especially in his first start in Houston in Week five where he looked lost out there multiple times. Injuries to Damar Hamlin and Taylor Rapp led to Bishop starting late in the season and again in the playoffs and while he struggled some (like everyone else in the secondary) he did show flashes of being a very good player. That leads someone in this week's Podbag to provide a hot (understatement) take that Bishop will be a Pro Bowl or even All Pro safety this year in his sophomore campaign. Patrick discusses that while obviously tempering those kind of expectations.Also there's a handful of questions and comments about the NFL schedule that was officially released on Wednesday. How does Patrick feel about it and what did he like and dislike the most now that the slate has been revealed?Also discussed are special teams being overrated, a fair evaluation of Beane, passing on Gabe Davis, some fans of this podcast and someone who's clearly not a fan of Nine Eleven Tavern wings. That and much more.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red'sat 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

Jake, Bundt and Carson break down the Elijah Moore signing, recap the draft class after last week's episode...took a turn (go listen) and discuss Beane's recent interview in Go Long.
On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren (SB Nation) to discuss the Buffalo Bills and more specifically, dissect some of the worst decisions of Brandon Beane through his tenure so far as Bills general manager.So it's clear in the show notes just as it was said repeatedly on the podcast---this is not meant to be an indictment of Beane. The guys both think by and large Beane has done a fantastic job not just building the Bills roster but keeping them in a position to consistently challenge for a championship every season. He's made a lot more good decisions than bad ones. That said, the guys are diggig into and discussing the latter.From three early round draft picks who flamed out quickly, to a handful of free agent signings that didn't turn out the way Beane hoped, a few regretful contract extensions and a pair of trades Beane probably wishes he had back, Beane's not above being criticized.They also discuss the offseasons of two AFC rivals, Baltimore and Cincinnati.You can follow Matt on Twitter @MattRichWarren and be sure to check out Buffalo Rumblingsfor your (really good) daily Bills content.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss several topics, including a full examination of everything Brandon Beane has done as Buffalo Bills GM when it comes to the rostering of wide receivers.Last week was a pretty controversial one for Beane after he went on WGR and immediately got after radio hosts Jeremy White and Joe Dibiase for Beane considers a lot of complaining about the Bills not doing enough at wide receiver. Besides discussing Beane's radio appearance and attitude regarding the issue, the guys dive into every move that Beane has made when it comes to wide receiver since becoming the general manager in 2017. They go through the list and discuss every receiver the Bills have drafted, signed as a free agent or traded for under the Beane regime. Spoiler alert---Patrick's more impressed with the history and list than Joe is.They also talk about Beane's most recent one-on-one interview with Tyler Dunne over at Go Long and are yet again impressed with Dunne's ability to not only get Beane for a full hour sit down but several pretty candid if not tough questions asked by Dunne in the piece.That plus Joe's True or False segment, another Patrick Mt.

On this special episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by 16-year old Buffalo Bills superfan Tommy Parzymieso to discuss both his challenges and recent incredible moment, announcing the Bills first-round pick at the NFL Draft last week in Green Bay. The episode is recorded live from Imperial Pizza in South Buffalo.Born and raised in Orchard Park, Tommy at age 2 was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a very rare genetic muscle wasting disorder affecting his muscles and heart as well as his lungs. As a result of his skeletal muscles being weak, he's reliant on an electric wheelchair full time to get around. But that hasn't stopped this young man's unbelievable spirt and love for sports.Through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Tommy was along with his family was given a personalized tour of the Bills facility a couple of weeks before the draft. Tommy knew about that and that he'd be getting the chance to meet Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane. What he didn't know was that Beane was going to surprise him and ask Tommy to travel to Green Bay and announce Buffalo's first pick in front a huge live audience. Tommy documents the entire experience.Tommy also talks about his favorite team, why last year's first pick Keon Coleman is his favorite player, his dream of being a football coach someday, his family and plenty more.Tommy and his family will be hosting a "Team Tommy" fundraising event that takes place this Saturday, May 3rd, being held at the Wings Meeting Place in Orchard Park, not far from Highmark Stadium. Proceeds from the fundraiser will help improve modifications needed inside their home, specialized equipment and other resources that can help Tommy continue his quality of life for years to come. Please consider supporting the event.Big shout-out and thank you once again to Imperial Pizza for being a gracious host and for their excellent wings.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Chris Ostrander (Two in the Box) to discuss Buffalo Bills general manager coming in hot on a WGR 550 appearance Monday morning in addition to what Chris' offseason plan is to finally fix the Buffalo Sabres this offseason.Beane made a radio appearance with Jeremy White and Joe DiBiase Monday morning and was outwardly annoyed at their "bitching' over the wide receiver position, touting the success of the offense last year despite media and fans complaining about the loss of Stefon Diggs. The guys have plenty of reaction to Beane's fiery comments.The Sabres continued to do what they've excelled at for the past 14 years now---miss the playoffs. They didn't come close either this time around as their 79 points was third from the bottom in the Eastern Conference and 12 points behind the last wild card team, Montreal. It really feels like a blown opportunity given that 92 points could've gotten them to the playoffs and everyone, for the most part rightfully so points to the 13-game winless streak early in the season that quickly did them in. As a result the Sabres pulled back into a tie with the New York Jets for the longest playoff drought of any team of the four major professional sports.So how does this never ending drought finally end? Patrick tasks Chris with coming up with a plan. What trades can be made, what free agent(s) can be convinced to come to Buffalo, what changes need to be made to the roster internally as well as the coaching staff? Does Kevyn Adams keep his GM job? Should he keep his job? Chris does his best to shed light on everything necessary to turn this mess around.Also, Chris has plenty reactions on the Bills draft and the offseason as a whole now that it's mostly complete. That plus a Sylvester Stallone vs Arnold Schwarzenegger who was a better 80's movie star debate and much more.Be sure to follow Chris on X at @2ITB_Buffalo and check out the Two in the Box blog in addition to the Instigator Podcast.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren (SB Nation) to examine how the present and the future of the Buffalo Bills is looking, positionally.With the NFL Draft barely a week away, the Bills will be adding prospects to the roster that general manager Brandon Beane is counting on helping them get over the AFC hump. Defense obviously feels like the bigger need, especially considering Josh Allen just won MVP and the vast majority of the offense is back from last year. Still, the draft isn't just about one season and the guys start to go through the team position-by-position to determine where priorities could be beyond just the upcoming 2025 season.More specifically the guys talk about wide receiver being a position of interest because Beane can get out of Curtis Samuel's contract after this year. Also, Dion Dawkins is one of the game's best left tackles but at 31 years old, do you start considering grooming a replacement for when he skills inevitably decline. Also, the Bills have four NFL caliber safeties but two are signed for just one year and another a guy Buffalo can easily financially move on from in 2026 if they desire.Matt also has thoughts on what he considers the most intriguing things about this draft, the New Orleans Saints quarterback situation and much more.You can follow Matt on Twitter @MattRichWarren and be sure to check out Buffalo Rumblingsfor your (really good) daily Bills content.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Chris Ostrander (Two in the Box) to discuss how much more the Buffalo Bills can still add to their defensive line given their unique situation as well as some actual reasons for optimism for the Buffalo Sabres.Brandon Beane and his Bills find themselves in a bit of a bind. New additions Michael Hoehct and Larry Ogunjobi are both suspended for the first six games but when they return for Week seven, if the unit stays healthy they could find themselves as part of at least nine defensive lineman already on the active roster. Of course, that's before next month's NFL draft, where Beane's almost certain to add more talent via rookie picks. The guys discuss how much may end up being too much and if there's going to be two rookies as high picks on the roster, who can end up being the odd man out, again muddled up by the suspension of two guys who'll miss a third of the season.Sticking with the Bills the guys also discuss how they're feeling about a month out from the draft in terms of what Beane may (or may not) have up his sleeve. Do Patrick or Chris sense a big Beane move coming? They also spend a few talking about the offense including who's more important to their 2025 success— Dalton Kincaid or Keon Coleman.Turning over to the Sabres, they continue to be bottom feeders in the NHL but for today at least, the guys are discussing some of the reasons for optimism beyond Tage Thompson and Rasmus Dahlin. Chris talks about what he's seen and liked from players such as JJ Peterka, Ryan McLeod, Jason Zucker and Alex Tuch. That and plenty more!Be sure to follow Chris on X at @2ITB_Buffalo and check out the Two in the Box blog in addition to the Instigator Podcast.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

It's another edition of The Podbag on today's Talking Buffalo and Patrick Moran is responding to a bunch of outstanding questions and comments from listeners, including elaborating on why Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane has done a much better job at drafting since 2018 than a lot of critics give credit for.As with any general manager in sports, it's low hanging fruit to point out every draft miss that GM has made. Beane's certainly had some noticeable misses in the early rounds, including Kaiir Elam, Boogie Basham and Cody Ford to name a few, not to mention some rookies from last year who appear to have a long way to go. That said Patrick not only goes over several of Beane's best hits but goes deeper, revealing who the next prospect picked by another team in the draft was at the same position. It's insane to think what kind of shape the Bills would be in if Beane took the same positional player after guys likes Terrel Bernard, Khalil Shakir, Christian Benford, Spencer Brown and others.Also, there's pertinent questions submitted regarding the importance of James Cook and also how critical is for Keon Coleman to take a huge step in year two—or is it actually?Plus, reaction to Stefon Diggs going to New England, a move Patrick would love to see the Bills make before Week one and the high profile Stevie Johnson vs Darrelle Revis Twitter feud brewing. That plus a few hockey topics, Patrick discusses his favorite new TV show and much more.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

As the NFL Draft approaches, Kevin Carroll and Andy Young from Buffalo End Zone rate General Manager Brandon Beane's draft picks for the Bills with their choices for each round. The guys also discuss the Bills' offseason and biggest needs heading into the draft, as well as old friend Stefon Diggs signing with the AFC East-rival New England Patriots.
On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss and assign a grade for each part of the Buffalo Bills offseason through this point in addition to discussing the offseason for some AFC rivals.To say it's been an interesting offseason so far for the Bills may truly be an understatement. Props to anyone who had the Bills signing a Bosa in free agency and multiple defenders who will be suspended to start the season on their bingo cards, but here we are. Matt has plenty of thoughts on the Bills “swinging big” with Joey Bosa while Brandon Beane, rightfully so caught heat for inking Michael Hoecht and Larry Ogunjobi to deals despite pending suspensions, the former a situation Beane knew about.That's just a part of an eventful offseason. The Bills also extended three key young core players in addition to the big Josh Allen contract. That's discussed and evaluated as are a few re-signings including Ty Johnson and Damar Hamlin as well as a few more low key adds like Laviska Shenault, Dane Jackson and Darrick Forrest.The guys also evaluate and discuss how the rest of the AFC east has done during this period in addition to the Bengals ponying up for both their star receivers, the Chiefs having a very interesting offseason and plenty more.♦♦♦♦♦Follow Patrick Moran/Talking Buffalo Podcast Substack: Patrick Moran's SubstackTwitter: @PatrickMoranTBBlue Sky: @PatrickMoranTB.bsky.socialInstagram: @PatrickMoranTBFacebook: Talking Buffalo Podcast
On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss and react to all of the Buffalo Bills additions so far in free agency as well as the suspensions to Michael Hoecht and Larry Ogunjobi.It's been hard to put a finger on exactly how free agency has been for the Bills to this point. Weird is the term Patrick comes up with. Brandon Beane clearly had a few things in mind with his approach, most notably a receiver with a specific skill set and essentially an overhaul on the defensive line. It was shocking news to learn on Friday both Hoecht and Ogunjobi would be suspended six games each for PED violations, especially shocking to hear Beane admit he didn't know about Ogunjobi but did ahead of time with Hoecht. The guys have plenty of reactions to that news and the way a lot of fans are handling it.Also, the Bills may be relying on rookies more than they like in 2025 early on after the suspensions. The guys discuss how impactful rookies have been with the team throughout the Sean McDermott era.Plus, Joe introduces a true or false segment, Patrick has a Mt. Flushmore of Patrick's in honor of St. Patrick's Day, thoughts on players who change uniform numbers and much more.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

Hour 2 in full
On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren of SB Nation to discuss the first three days of free agency for the Buffalo Bills and specifically what's become an overhaul of their defensive line following three significant additions.It wasn't exactly a secret that the Bills were going to look to improve a defensive line that was good at times in 2024 but also floundered too often as well, none more than last year's AFC championship game loss in Kansas City. Bills general manager Brandon Beane took some pretty big steps to try and improve the unit this week, signing Michael Hoecht on Monday before the big one, Joey Bosa on Tuesday and following it up with a third addition on Wednesday morning, Larry Ogunjobi. The guys break down all three moves and discuss what they like and don't like about them, and there's plenty of both on Bosa and Ogunjobi.Beane also addressed safety on Wednesday, bringing back Damar Hamlin on a one-year deal and also signing Darrick Forrest. Patrick thinks Hamlin being back is a reflection of an open market that rejected him, something Matt definitely disagrees with.With these moves plus the signing of Josh Palmer and re-signing of Ty Johnson earlier, it certainly appears the meat and potatoes of the Bills roster is set heading into NFL draft season next. That's with the exception of cornerback. Both guys have thoughts on where this roster stands as well as some reaction to happenings around the NFL and plenty more.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran reacts to day two of free agency tampering period for the Buffalo Bills, including a nighttime bombshell of Buffalo signing edge rusher Joey Bosa to a one-year, $12.6 million deal in one of the biggest risk vs reward swings of Brandon Beane's tenure.Day two was calm for Buffalo in terms of moves and it felt like Beane's sole focus could be maintaining the Bills running back room after re-signing Ty Johnson to a two-year deal and bringing back Darrynton Evans for his third stint with the team. By the way, Patrick explains why he absolutely loves the move to bring Johnson back although many fans were ready for that to not happen in hopes they'd see more James Cook in 2025---an idea that Patrick explains as stupid.But the big news happened at 9:22pm when "Beane After Dark" struck again, as NFL Insiders reported the Bills signed Bosa to a one-year, $12.6 million contract included $12 million guaranteed. Patrick has a slew of thoughts about this move that could be a strikeout as easily as a home run for the Bills. What should fans love about it? Hate about it?That plus what the Bills still need going forward, hopefully in advance of the NFL draft and much more. Wow, what a night.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.
