How Much Can Bills Still Add To D-Line, Plus Some Sabres Optimism?

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.
