Buffalo Bills: Preseason award predictions for 2019
By Luke Parrish
The Buffalo Bills enter the 2019 NFL season with the future in mind. Individual and team goals set the stage for the upcoming campaign.
The 2019 NFL season is creeping closer and closer. Every NFL team heads into camp with goals in mind, as do individual players. The Buffalo Bills are no different. They have a young roster in place with a chance to compete for a playoff spot in the AFC. If things go according to plan, 2019 could be a monumental season for the Bills.
Quarterback Josh Allen is set to lead the Bills in his second NFL season. He showed flashes as a rookie, so all eyes will be on him as he progresses in year two. The front office did all they could to bring in help at wide receiver to open up the passing game. Buffalo managed to sign Cole Beasley, John Brown and Andre Roberts in free agency. They also drafted tight end Dawson Knox in the third round.
The run game received quite the boost as well. Former Jaguar T.J. Yeldon signed as a free agent, as did Frank Gore. The team also spent a draft pick on Devin Singletary who can be an excellent change-of-pace back. The offense made tremendous strides this spring and summer to hopefully take the pressure off the defense.
Buffalo has quite a bit of young talent on the defensive side of the ball as well. Tremaine Edmunds, Ed Oliver and Tre’Davious White are the cornerstones of one of the best defenses in the NFL. The Bills ranked second in the league in yards allowed last season before drafting Oliver, one of the best interior rushers in the draft.
With all that in mind, here are some individual awards predictions for the Buffalo Bills in the 2019 NFL season.
