Bills & NFL Live Reaction - Free Agency Day One

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran offers plenty of live reaction from day one of the NFL free agency tampering period as it pertains both to the Buffalo Bills and around the NFL.The Bills made their first move of free agency on Monday on offense, inking former Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Josh Palmer to a three-year deal worth a reported $36 million. They followed that up by inking defensive lineman Michael Hoecht to a three-year deal worth a reported $24 million.Palmer's stats with the Chargers have been pretty pedestrian throughout his four year career, catching 39 passes for 584 yards and a touchdown last year. While his general stats are hardly impressive Patrick elaborates on why he was calling for this signing literally as recently as yesterday's show, explaining how plenty of metrics demonstrate that he's the type of receiver the Bills lack and could really use right now in this offense that was historical.As far Hoecht, Patrick admits to not knowing much at all about him but runs off some facts for him and feels better about the addition after seeing some plugged in Bills content creators having been supportive of the signing before free agency started.Patrick also has thoughts on while everyone wants the Bills to add star players and they very well still may, it was their role players and some of those contributions that were a major reason Buffalo had such a great season in 2024, saying Palmer's presence could be along the lines of great contributors from last year like Ty Johnson, Mack Hollins, Alec Anderson, Dorian Williams and others.Patrick also talks about what he's happy and not happy about in regards to where the Bills stand early on in free agency---where he thinks the Bills should've went with some decisions and still may going forward. That plus thoughts on some of the bigger signings around the league, the New England Patriots making a lot of noise and plenty more.♦♦♦♦♦Follow Patrick Moran/Talking Buffalo Podcast Substack: Patrick Moran’s SubstackTwitter: @PatrickMoranTBBlue Sky: @PatrickMoranTB.bsky.socialInstagram: @PatrickMoranTBFacebook: Talking Buffalo Podcast  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
