PITTSFORD, N.Y. — After watching Josh Allen pick apart the Bills' defense in red-zone drills to open training camp on Wednesday, general manager Brandon Beane had a few things to say regarding the quarterback’s latest — and anonymous — naysayer.He was responding to a recent quote from a person ESPN cited as an anonymous NFL executive, who referred to Allen as “one of the more overrated players in the NFL.
As to whether the comment might fuel Allen's competitive nature, Beane said the quarterback is self-motivated. The bigger question facing the Bills is how they expect to remain competitive following a salary cap-forced overhaul that led to Buffalo trading its top receiving threat, Stefon Diggs, to Houston. The cuts went deeper with Buffalo releasing center Mitch Morse, safety Jordan Poyer and cornerback Tre’Davious White, while losing sack leader Leonard Floyd and No. 2 receiver Gabe Davis to free agency.
Coach Sean McDermott expressed confidence in his retooled receivers group, which includes veteran free-agent additions Curtis Samuel, Chase Claypool, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Mack Hollins, and rookie draft pick Keon Coleman. On defense, the Bills are breaking in a new safety tandem to replace Poyer and Micah Hyde, who is unsigned and considering retirement. Starting linebacker Matt Milano opened camp cleared to practice after missing the final 13 weeks of last season with a broken right leg.
